Jason & Emily
Wedding Party
Erin Zuccaro
Matron of Honor
Meet Erin, Emily’s Matron of Honor. Emily and Erin met in New York City in 2008. A recent transplant from Los Angeles, Erin was sitting alone at a mutual friend’s kickball game when Emily, ever the social butterfly, decided to strike up a conversation with her. They quickly realized how much they had in common and became fast friends. Through ups and downs, moves across country (both eventually returning to their home states), and big milestones in life, they’ve remained close and committed to seeing each other as much as they can — whether it’s visits to Northern California or Dallas, or girls trips to Miami or Palm Springs (these girls love their sun). Erin is honored to stand beside Emily on her big day, and can’t wait to celebrate.
Jeffrey Niebaum
Best Man
Jeff is one of Jason's two younger brothers. He's got lots of stories about growing up with Jason. Give Jeff a cocktail and a live microphone, and you'll probably hear a few. He's not just the best man. He's the best, man.
Jody Schechter
Bridesmaid
Emily and I have been best of friends since meeting our freshman year of college at The University of Texas in Austin. We were excited to find we both played golf & quickly made a date to play. From here we each tell a different version of what happened next. Either way, we still laugh about it today & it was the first of many hilarious experiences we would share together over the years. We never played golf again, but we roomed together for 2 years and were inseparable for much of college. Today, we live in different cities, but our friendship has only deepened. There are some people you meet in life who profoundly change your life for the better. Emily is that for me. I'm so excited to celebrate Emily & Jason's love for each other and see everyone soon!
Timothy Linden
Groomsman
Tim is Jason's youngest brother, and a huge Beatles fan. Jk, he doesn't like the Beatles. Which makes Jason wonder if he and Tim are actually related. Well, they are. And Jason couldn't be happier that Tim will be standing up with him at the wedding. Partly because there's a ton of Beatles on the wedding playlist.
Mary Story
Bridesmaid
Emily & Mary met in college, thanks to their mutual friend, Jody. Mary went to A&M but would come to stay with Jody & Emily during the Texas–Texas A&M football weekends. Over the years a friendly football rivalry developed and so did a deep friendship. In our 20 years of friendship (wow!), we have both figuratively and literally climbed mountains together - and we've always been by each other's side. I have enjoyed watching Emily and Jason grow in mutual respect as well as a great love for each other. I am so excited for them as their family and friends come together to celebrate their love. I am truly honored to be Emily's friend and to be asked to stand by her side during such a wonderful celebration! Turns out Aggie's and Longhorns can be friends. <3
Brad Daniels
Groomsman
Brad is Jason's uncle on his mom's side, though Jason has always thought of him more like an older brother. Make sure your camera phones are charged. Nobody cuts a rug on a wedding dance floor like Uncle Brad.
