Helen & Benjamin
Wedding Party
Lizzy Hanner
Maid of Honor
Helen and Lizzy are cousins, grew up together, and are often mistaken for sisters. This makes Helen very happy because Lizzy is the best, as you will soon find out if you have yet to meet her! Lizzy has a degree in metalsmithing and can totally smelt things. When Helen was in the fourth grade, Lizzy was the person who introduced her to actual bands.
Alex Bergeron
Best Man
Alex and Ben met at an awkward age of adolescence, and since then have experienced a lot of good times. They did a lot of dumb things, like almost watching an entire movie with 3D glasses on that was not in 3D. To put it simply, Alex and Benny are Jonah Hill and Michael Cera from Superbad.
Katherine Willis
Bridesmaid
Katherine is Ben's sister, and is such a stand-up gal that she shared her NYC apartment with Helen while she was transitioning from Boston to New York. Katherine is amazing at pop-culture recommendations. Target Women by Sarah Haskins and the YouTube video "Kittens Inspired by Kittens" to name just two. K & H try not to tease Ben all the time, but sometimes it's too much fun.
Kyle McGregor
Groomsman
Kyle was playing Harvey Johnson in the EHS rendition of "Bye Bye Birdie" when Ben met him for the first time. While in high school, Ben and Kyle hung out with friends in Grand Isle, VT, saw some of the "greatest" movies of all time, and spent a lot of time trolling around Blockbuster (RIP). Kyle is truly kind and strongly devoted to his friends, and Ben considers himself lucky.
Lauren Shaffer
Bridesmaid
Lauren and Helen met on the 9th floor of the Little Building dorm at Emerson, just like Helen and Ben! And their love story is just as real. Cracking up with Lauren is one of the greatest things ever. A close second is going to concerts with her. But the most important thing to know is that she has a cat named Zuzu whom she nicknamed "DJ Lil Squeaks."
Kevin O'Such
Groomsman
Ben met Kevin at "Picture Yourself at Emerson" in Boston. Out of all the hundreds of future Emerson students there, Ben really only got to know Kevin. Sure enough, they both ended up in the same dorm, on the same floor, and throughout college had some good times. Kevin lives not too far from New York, so they manage to hang out in the city, trying to come up with awesome ideas for a movie.
Elissa Bernstein
Bridesmaid
Elissa moved down the street from Helen and Ben a few years ago and the fun has just not stopped since then. From constantly seeing movies to exploring New York's multiple Chinatowns, no outing or snack opportunity is safe from them. Elissa likes to make custom redesigns of board games, and Helen and Ben like to play them with her!
Joe Dolce
Groomsman
When Joe and Ben were randomly assigned as roommates freshman year of college, all Joe knew about Ben was from his facebook pictures of dressing up as Harry Potter (at seventeen), and singing in a barbershop quartet in The Music Man. Fortunately Ben turned out to be "normal" and they had the best room on the floor - ask anybody. Joe is the coolest guy around, even when he once described Ben as "touchy-feely."
