Best Man
Ryan is Brandon's younger brother. Like the bride and her sibling, the Hofer brothers are only 18 months apart in age so they have always been really close.

Co-Maid of Honor
Amanda has been Meg's best friend for the last 18 years! They met in the bathroom of a lovely dive bar in Monterey called the Mucky Duck. They've lived together in San Diego, danced the night away at Burning Man and have had each other's backs through all of life's ups and downs. Amanda lives in Encinitas with her husband Frank and two children, Addison and Logan.
Groomsman
While Brandon only has one brother, Trevor is about as close as you can get to another one. Trevor is Brandon's cousin and is a life-long Sonoma county resident, growing up in Rohnert Park. Brandon and Trevor have shared a lot of jokes, camping trips, drinks and other shenanigans over the years and it's because of this guy, that Brandon met Meghan!
Bridesmaid
Meg and Gina met working at Sport & Spine Therapy of Marin in 2012. Road trips, concerts and countless dance parties later, have led these two into a great friendship. Co-creator of the Whiskey Tango Foxtrot crew, Gina is always there for spontaneous shenanigans. Gina lives in Santa Rosa with her wife Catherine and their fur babies, Oden and Tigger.
Groomsman
What is there to say about Steve, he's been around what feels like forever. Brandon's dad will vouch for that, with Steve being a regular member of the Hofer household growing up. Just to show how often he was around, he actually received a military recruiting call at our house once. On top of that history, Brandon and Steve have been roommates several times over the years and he currently resides in Sacramento.
Bridesmaid
Meg and Emily also met while working at Sport and Spine Therapy of Marin. She's also a proud member of the Whiskey Tango Foxtrot crew. Em went off to earn her doctorate in Physical Therapy and when she returned to Petaluma, she and Meg became roommates, surviving the COVID lockdown together and becoming co-parents to fur babies Leo and Luna.
Groomsman
Of all the groomsman, Shaun is Brandon's most recent acquaintance but their friendship still goes back nearly 15 years. Oddly enough, Shaun grew up in Elk Grove and went to the same high school as Brandon but they didn't meet until after college. Since then, they've bonded over all things sports: Liverpool, Sharks games, indoor soccer, FIFA and Call of Duty (that counts during COVID, right?!?) Woooo!
Bridesmaid
Tammie was the last addition to Sport and Spine Therapy of Marin, completing the fabulous Whiskey Tango Foxtrot crew! Tammie and Meghan built a lasting friendship through country concerts, karaoke and showing off some seriously sweet dance moves out on the town! Tammie lives in Petaluma with her husband Colin and their two kids JJ and Evie.
Groomsman
Matt has been around nearly as long as Brandon's brother, going to kindergarten with Ryan and playing baseball with Brandon's dad as coach. Since high school, Matt has been a reliable presence in Brandon's life, referring him to his first Credit Union job which led to an unexpected career, playing indoor soccer, guy's nights out, and organizer of the annual guys trip to San Jose for a Shark's game. He currently lives in Sacramento with his wife Megan.

Maddie has held the title of Meg's FAVORITE niece for the last 11 years! This sweet girl has been involved in every aspect of the wedding planning. Helping to pick out colors, going to dress try-ons and designing wedding cakes. Maddie's extensive knowledge of Taylor Swift keeps Meg on her toes! Maddie loves volleyball, spa days and the beach! Maddie will be graduating 5th grade this year!!
Junior Groomsman
While not technically Brandon's nephew, he is in everything but name only. When Brandon moved to Rohnert Park and rented a house with Trevor, he got to spend an amazing year watching him grow up. He is an awesome kid, little league all-star and a beast on the football field.
Junior Bridesmaid
Katherine is Brandon's one and only niece. She turned 8 in January and is involved with a little bit of everything. She goes to Karate, plays piano, loves all things Harry Potter and Star Wars, loves to read, and is becoming quite the little gamer, commandeering Ryan's Playstation.
Junior Groomsman
Chris has held the title as Meg's FAVORITE nephew for the last 9 years! He destroys Meg in Super Mario Kart and kicks Brandon's butt at soccer, on the field or in video games. Chris is killing it in 3rd grade and loves lacrosse, soccer, break dancing and hanging out with Auntie :)
