Maid of Honor
With a last name like this you'd think she was an heiress. The maid of honor whose made of honor. Alex is someone you can turn to for advice about anything and an earful about climate change. She may be my cousin, but has been promoted to big sister since birth.
Best Man
Best man extraordinaire. Donny for short, is one of Jack's closest friends. Hours well spent playing most of the games the world has to offer. Hours spent just talking about whatever comes up. A Major part of the couples “chosen” family.
Bridesmaid
Sister of the groom. A traveler and a nurse. Not a traveling nurse even though she has thought about it. Her and Jack used to butt heads when they were in a room for more than 30 seconds. But now couldn't imagine a life without her by our side cheering us on.
Groomsman
Brother of the groom. But if Jack was scaled up like 1.103x they'd be twins. Ben has been a rock for Jack their many years together. Only recently has decided to stop accusing Jack of cheating at board games. A brother to put others to shame.
Bridesmaid
Shelley Blaine, Little Miss "I could fight a horse". My best friend for life. Someone who has gotten me countless free drinks due to her ability to tell a story. I couldn't imagine getting lost in Atlantic city trying to see Post Malone with anyone else. Her name is often mispronounced in many surprising ways.
Groomsman
If a Green Thumb was a dude, lived in Wilmington, DE and was related to my wife. What I'm trying to say is, he loves plants, music and his sister. We connected over anime, and now by law connected for life. So happy to have met you buddy.
Bridesmaid
The self appointed Godmother of our Cat, Molly is the kind of person who wants to listen and understand before anything else. She does what the Irish do best and that's be proud, loud and happy. Someone the couple can rely on, and pushes Jack to cook Gluten Free more often (harder than it look).
Groomsman
Known as Splat to a select few, Matt is one of the most caring, and sweet people you could ever meet. Time and time again has checked on me, through all the struggles of adult life. A bit of comedic anchor in my life as well from Burger King to Germany.
Bridesmaid
Through nothing but charm and a love for baking, Lea has brute forced her way into the couples "chosen family". Frequent walks down Newbury Street, becoming a ritual when we visit Boston because we always had the best guide. Never forgets a coffee order, but may forget a face or two.
Groomsman
Crying in the wings of the theater after Jack's first theatre performance. We have Evan. They have climbed mountains, hills and even smaller hills. A gift to not only Jack's life but his families as well. Known as the Duty Boy.
Bridesmaid
A mother to not only her daughter Talia, but a caregiver to Jessie during her tumultuous years in the masters program. Diana just like Jack loves a Sweet Potato Gnocci with Gorgonzola sauce and She is a pillar of Jessie and Jack Philly Support system.
Groomsman
Many people don't know this but “Lumière” means light in my life (I'm lying), and what a coincidence Keven is both. Supported me during my beastly high school years as well outside of it. A darn good paladin and an even better friend. Truly a light I'd follow in the dark.
Groomsman
Muted and blocked me for 6 months on Xbox Live in middle school. But more recently surprised me with friends and a ticket to a board game convention, drove the whole way too. But we are long since past that first part, our friendship has grown into something I cherish.
Groomsman
Ryan White is a gentle soul with a Boston Upbringing. He is hardworking, kind, and a force to be reckoned with when it comes to fighting games. Has spent hours painstakingly trying to teach the groom street fighter with no success. So we tend mince words instead
Officiant
Ever wanted to talk to an encyclopedia that only has information on incredibly niche topics. Meet CK! He is passionate about his many (many) passions and super easy to talk to. Can find a connection with just about anyone (whether french people in his hometown bar, or my father).
