Wedding Party

Matthew Artson

Officiant

Matt followed some folks who worked at across from his job to a birthday party one night. The result was an epic friendship that spans over a decade of theatre and travel adventures!

Andrew Zimmer

Man of Honor

After meeting when Andrew was auditioning for a show where Hope was reading the sides, they've been roommates through three different states and across an ocean! Still haven't killed each other!

AJ Bouk

Best Man

Jenny Bortins

Bridesmaid

Jenny and Hope met in a playwriting class in college and Jenny directed Hope's very first play. Our teacher told us at the end of the program that she knew we (and Alyssa!) were the type of people who would be friends forever. Wouldn't have it any other way!

David Lawrence

Bridesman

Hope and David met on a project in a shanty of a theatre, where by all rights, the building should have caught fire. Hope was out of her element as a lighting designer and David was in Hope's usual role as the stage manager. We didn't die that show. Keeping each other alive is a great foundation for a friendship!

Daria Martineau

Bridesmaid

Daria and Hope met through the magic of Craigslist when Hope needed a place to live when she moved to DC. Either one could have been an online serial killer, but we weren't! Being writing buddies and friends is much better.

Ariel Bliss

Bridesmaid

Ariel and Hope met when a mutual friend brought her to an opening night. Not too long after, Hope needed a roommate, so Ariel moved in. A lot mountains climbed and two apartments later, here we are!
