Jeanie & Nicholas
Wedding Party
Jen Lombard
Maid of Honor
Jen is my sister and my best friend. We didn’t always see eye to eye growing up. I mostly saw her foot kicking me in various body parts and she mostly saw blood from my deadly scratches during our battles. As we got older I realized that she was actually kind of awesome and a total weirdo, just like me! Jen is generous, creative, intelligent and one of the funniest people I’ve ever known. She’s always playing pranks and being silly which also makes her the most fun person to be around. I couldn’t ask for a better sister and maid of honor to stand by me on my wedding day!
Chris Briana
Best Man
My brother and my best man from day 1. Chris is the smart, responsible and better-endowed (with hair) one of the Briana boys. We moved around a lot as kids, and we always had each other. Through the years we have bonded over Gronk, Big L, Blood Juice and Steven Segal. There's no better uncle, brother or friend - and I am honored to have Chris by my side as I make yet another life-long commitment.
Natalie Fogel
Bridesmaid
Natalie is my dearest friend. We met while working together after graduating high school and I am so grateful for that job because I don’t know what I’d do without this woman! She was my first roommate, she is always by my side to laugh, cry or to deliver me the brutally honest truth about my life and fashion decisions. She is truly the kindest, most selfless soul I’ve ever met and I love her and her family to pieces. I am so lucky to have this beautiful angel stand by me on this very special day!
Adam Waitkunas
Groomsman
The term "brother from another mother" gets thrown around a lot, but it's never been more true than with Adam, Chris and I. Adam is my oldest cousin, and we grew up together. Adam helped us learn that when an adult yells at you it's actually funny, and our impressions of parents and grandparents when we were in trouble have fueled our laughter for years. Time never passes with us and we can always launch back into the same inside jokes and references that we've been working with for the past 35 years. Adam is such a unique person and has a way of getting you on board with any bizarre thing that he enjoys such as Barnaby Jones and the disgusting Chinese food at the Hunan House. He's also still REALLY good at getting my goat.
Umang Shah
Officiant
"Officiant" doesn't really do this man justice. Umang and I have been friends for over 20 years and have gotten closer and closer. During the worst times he was there to drink beer with me at the bowling alley and during the best times he was there to drink beer with me at the bowling alley. Nobody doesn't like this guy, and I am proud to be one of his 450,000 friends. Umang was my first friend to hang with Jeanie and I and he and his wife Meghan were so accepting to her when I wasn't sure how things would go. There's nobody as fun-loving and gregarious as Umang, and we can't wait to see the awesome job he does with the ceremony.
Wren Briana
Flower Girl/Our Everything
None of this would be happening without this little girl. She is the absolute love of our lives and sweetest soul on earth. Wren is Nic's daughter and she has grown to love and be loved by Jeanie. Wren brings us joy, smiles, laughs and moments of amazement every day. She will be dropping flower petals before the ceremony, but she has been dropping beauty on our lives forever.
Maya Lucia Lombard
Flower Girl
Maya is the first grandchild in our family thanks to Mike & Emily. She is as sweet and as cute as can be! We know she will take her role as flower girl with her big cousin Wren very seriously as she often stares at everyone, silently judging and wondering if we know what on earth we are doing. Can't wait to see our precious little niece walk down that aisle!
