Ruby and Hayley have been thick as thieves since they can remember. They grew up swimming together and trying to convince cute boys they were twins. They love to travel together, and Ruby introduced Hayley to one of the only alcoholic beverages she drinks, sour beer! Ruby would still be Hayley's favorite cousin, even if she had more than one!

Emily is marrying Hayley's brother.... Don't worry, we don't know why either! Hayley and Emily met 10 years ago in Australia while Ruby and Hayley were visiting Hank on his semester abroad. One night after libations were enjoyed, Ruby declared of Emily, "I'd be okay if she ruined the blonde gene." Well the rest is history. Emily is apart of our family, and we couldn't be happier. Emily and Hayley enjoy outdoor activities together, including running from mosquitos in alligator-infested swamps and rock climbing.

Mailene and Hayley met in college while swimming at Nebraska. They quickly became friends. Mailene was there for Hayley during the hardest point in her swimming career, when she started swimming the 200 freestyle. Mailene, a seasoned member of the distance group, really helped Hayley gain confidence in and out of the pool. Mailene taught Hayley that she liked cauliflower and Dutch Bros Coffee. When these two are together it's like no time has passed.
Bridesmaid
Shannon and Hayley did not like each other when they first met. Thankfully, that didn't last long. Teammates on the swim and dive team at the University of Nebraska, the two were able to travel for swimming and fun. In fact, they spent an entire summer in Europe backpacking from Scotland to Turkey together. It was the trip of a lifetime that solidified their life-long friendship!
Bridesmaid
Ellan and Hayley met while swimming together at the University of Nebraska. They ended up living together and becoming fast friends, enjoying microwave nachos nearly nightly. They ended up having the same major and swimming the same events, so they lived together, studies together, and trained together. Ellan is as much a part of the family as Hayley. She even goes to the Martin family event of the year: The Indy 500. In fact, we're all pretty sure Sunny and Chuck would dump Hayley in a heartbeat for Ellan!
Bridesmaid
MB and Hayley met while swimming at the University of Nebraska. MB was energetic, spunky, and sassy... really sassy. So naturally, Hayley instantly wanted to be friends! The two often spent their time bitching and moaning about swimming. A mutual hate of IM workouts really helps you bond. MB was always up to something exciting and infected Hayley with her zest for life. MB would always invite Hayley home for holidays and always made her feel like family. Some of her best college memories are at the Rye house.
Bridesmaid
Lauren is one of Hayley's newest friends, but from the moment they met, they knew it was friends at first sight! Hayley taught Lauren and her partner Pat (coincidentally Hank's high school best friend) how to SCUBA dive. They bonded over their love of travel, conservation, and weirdo dogs. These two new friends have many years of adventures ahead!
Best Man
Alex and Glenn have been best mates since '07, when they were paired together as bunkmates for a pre-secondary school weekend retreat. Since then they have done Duke of Ed together, played rugby together, partied together and even lived together. Even though Alex now lives in London, they still find time to keep in touch.
Best Man
Neil is Glenn's elder brother. As close as brothers could be, these two love spending Christmas together, playing videogames and eating second dinners. Through their travelling together they have walked the streets of New York and crawled the streets of Barcelona. Neil recently became the father of two handsome twins, and Glenn is the proud uncle.
Groomsman
Glenn and Thomas have known each other since secondary school. Tom was the guy who first showed Glenn how to play guitar and was his personal tour guide through the city of York. Tom's house was always the hangout spot through the years, and it has always been tradition to have boxing day chili there.
Groomsman
Glenn and Ross have known each other for years but have grown exceptionally close through 5 years of living together and doing the same course at university. Ross may appear shy, but he is one of the most fun people Glenn has ever known. Glenn is constantly learning from Ross, especially about camera and DJ equipment. They both share a love for pints, techno music and beards.
Groomsman
Pete joined the climbing club a while after Glenn, but the boys hit it off over a love of sad music and avant-garde memes. When Glenn first came to Austin in 2017, Pete came to visit and bring a little Ireland to the cowboy state. Pete is the guy you can talk about anything including the tough stuff. Pete was the first of Glenn's friends to meet Hayley... so we blame him for letting it go this far!
Groomsman
Andrew was the man manning the booth for the mountaineering club at the freshers fair when Glenn first signed up to join. Apart from their love of rock climbing and running, they have a true bond over mutual degeneracy and love for the craic. Apart from that time they nearly drowned together attempting to swim across Pace Bend, Glenn would say their experiences together have been mostly positive and non-life-threatening.
Groomsman
Hank and Glenn met because well, isn't that obvious? They may have met due to family ties but these two would have been friends regardless. They share a love of climbing, the outdoors, and travel. we're pretty sure not even a divorce would split this duo up!
Groomsman
Ryan, also known as B-ry is one of Glenn's most chill friends. He is always up for the craic. They grew up together and went from grammer school all the way through to Queen's University. They were Uni roommates and travel buddies. B-ry was also one of the first of Glenn's friends to meet Hayley, and they still have a...thing.
Ring Bearer
These to hold a special place in Hayley's heart. After all Amy's holds a special place for Hayley's kidney. Amy and Hayley took part in a kidney donation in 2018. These two are linked for life now but have known each other for years. Amy is Sunny's God daughter. Jorge, her lovely husband, and Amy have opened their lives to Hayley and because of that we couldn't imagine them not being apart of this special day.
