Jane & Fraser
Wedding Party
Leslie Burden
Maid of Honor
Leslie Burden, the sister of the bride, is an all-around cool and artistic person who can make astonishingly complex dinners from scratch and still does so *with a toddler*. She lives in Milwaukee with delightful husband Ryan and 4-year old son Noah, who plays "bookshop" at an eighth-grade level.
Sean Gorman
Best Man
Fraser's first memory is of whipping blocks at other kids in preschool while, by his side, Gorman cackled. Since then, very little in their relationship has changed. Gorman has become the Manager of Champions, author of two excellent books about life and wrestling, and possessor of some of the largest bell-bottom pants in Massachusetts. He would like it known that he is wearing no hair product in this picture.
Jennifer Ockelmann-Wagner
Bridesmaid
Jen, pictured here with a Captain America impersonator, has turned her ability to memorize the minutiae of a completely fictional universe into an actual career--in her role at NBC/Universal Marketing, she is the reason why you see things like Minions scrubs and Trolls backpacks and How To Train Your Dragon throws in your daily lives. She is married to the wonderful Billy, who, like Cap, is worthy. Recent additions to their family include twins Liam and Sam, who are wonderful but who are also *twin infant boys*. So if you see Jen, buy her a drink. She probably needs one.
Bob Higgins
Groomsman
Bob and Fraser met in the kitchens of Wellesley, where they served many years together, chained to a hot stove. It's exactly as sexy as you're picturing. Bob is a beer aficianado, a gardener, and a dedicated sharer of memes on Facebook; he has been using the pandemic to become even more distinguished.
Bailey Childers
Bridesmaid
Bailey, pictured here with a baby goat, lives in Washington, D.C. with kitty Leia, who specializes in getting up on the kitchen countertops. Bailey lobbies for union workers in an incredibly high-powered position that Jane can barely understand, so they stick to things like baseball and Star Wars. Despite her inexplicable weakness for Washington sports teams, Bailey is a wonderful friend and possibly the most well-traveled human Jane knows.
Scott Andrews
Groomsman
Scott (known to one and all as Cutie) is a Brazilian ju-jitsu enthusiast with a plumbing business and a wide-ranging set of interests that keep him reading pretty much 24/7. He lives with his lovely wife Tanya in Wrentham; their daughters, Liliana and Tuvia Rose, are probably going to take over the world.
