They spent every weekend together, playing airsoft and long boarding. They both attended WVU and would enjoy going to parties and introducing beer ball to people! Corey became an honorary roommate because he would spend more time at the Groom’s place playing video games, watching movies and drinking, than at his own place.

Lars and the Groom first met when they were playing for the Manassas Sharks football team. They enjoyed laughing and messing around, rather then paying attention to plays at practice.

They had many sleepovers over the years and made sure to cause problems for Lars' older brothers! They would spend countless hours playing Modern Warfare, in his basement to see who could clear a mission better. Later, in high school, Lars had convinced Avery to play lacrosse. The “convincing” was basically just the description that the Groom would get to run around and hit people with a stick. During high school, they joined an air sifting team; which was started by two other groomsmen. Every weekend that they were not busy they would go air-softing. Fast forward to the adult world, they hangout playing video games and going air-softing.

Nights at Branden’s were spent staying up until 3 am, watching horror videos of slenderman. What made it worse? Branden’s sliding glass door, that led to the woods. The next day they would run off of 4 hours of sleep and enjoy the only thing Branden ever had in his house for breakfast... Poptarts. Branden and the Groom still play air-soft and videogames together. Branden enjoys photography, Snowboarding, playing Videogames and air-softing.
