Daisy and Luna
Best Pets
"Though our fur babies won't be physically present at the wedding today, they will most definitely be so in spirit: figuratively and literally! Our signature drinks are in honor of them!" – Jacquie and Jeff
Kevin Lyster
Groomsman
“My fellow trolley boy and sporting sparring partner, Kev is the first of my best mates landing from London. Kind, thoughtful and fiercely loyal, he is as competitive as I am, just not quite as much. I cannot imagine today without him standing with me.” – Jeff
Stephanie Montag
Bridesmaid
"The Batman to my Robin and one of my favorite people in the world. Stephanie is one of my closest friends. She has the biggest heart and is the best listener. I could not get married without her by my side." - Jacquie
Miles Holder
Groomsman
“The pouter to my grinner, the cool to my tragic: Miles is the second of my best mates making their way over. Considerate and conscientious, I am so thankful he is traveling from Berlin to be alongside me… and that he has grown out of his blue mohawk phase.” – Jeff
Taylor Chick
Bridesmaid
"Chick is one of the smartest and kindest people I have ever met. From Pink and Purple to Amsterdam and Cabo, she has always been there with me through thick and thin. I love this girl and am so excited for her to stand with me as I marry Jeff." - Jacquie
Feargus Durham
Groomsman
“My Woodcraft pal and perennial Boyzone duetist, Ferg is the third of my best mates flying in. Generous, game for a laugh and the staunchest of pals; I’m proud to have him join me, and as always await his tipsy dancefloor words of loving friendship later.” – Jeff
Taylor Levene

Hifjur Rahman
Groomsman
“My loudest, oldest friend – since the chaotic days of year 8 drama class – Hif is the fourth of my best mates from home. His heart, fun and spirit are as big as his biceps, all of which he'll doubtless show off later. I’m honoured he's one of my groomsmen.” – Jeff
Mike Spielman
Groomsman
“The newest friend of the party but no less treasured, Mike has been my best mate throughout my time in LA. Having seen each other through good times and bad, from brunches and bars to football fields, I only hope today he can keep his shirt on for once.” – Jeff
Donald DeSantis
Bridesman
"My absolute SISTER. I feel like we were siblings in a prior life. Donald and I have known each other since high school but didn't become very close until we both were living in LA. He is one of my best friends and I would not be the woman I am today without him." - Jacquie
Leah Burgin

Bob Pethick
Father of the Bride
