Best Man
The yin to the groom’s yang. They survived grad school together. He lives in Malaysia, writes for films, grows some plants, and bothers his cat.
Maid of Honor
Bride's (only) sister, like a Dostoevskyan double but cuter. According to her this is a photo of her 'at her peak.'
Groomsman
Groom's paternal cousin. We’ve shared hobbies throughout the years: action figures into video games into graphic novels into coffee and on and on. + bread makes you fat.
Bridesmaid
Bride's paternal first cousin and (among our tribe of female cousins) 2nd-in-command. Climbs stuff and makes stuff, not necessarily all at once.
Groomsman
The groom’s *shortest* maternal cousin is one day in Bangkok and the next day in Jordan. Who knows where he’ll be next? But for this day he’ll be here.
Bridesmaid
Bride's preschool bully and then (Grade 2 onwards) co-conspirator. Now sometimes creative collaborator type, and always in the lifelong friend category.
Groomsman
Groom’s *tallest* maternal cousin. Writes, shoots, and edits videos. Plays all sorts of games (board games, video games, mind games). This picture is just the right amount of annoying
Bridesmaid
Bride's friend-of-the-best-friend tier, and cookie supplier since Grade 2. For this wedding, a bona fide cake fairy godmother!
Groomsman
Bride and groom’s friend. Always overflowing with emotion. Is definitely more excited for this day than the bride and groom combined.
Bridesmaid
Bride's friend since Grade 2, when we both drew Pokemon and anime during class, but somehow only I was in peril of failing?!
Groomsman
Groom's bunso brother. Smash bro number one. Video gamer all day, every day. Has a personal best of walking as little as 300 steps one day.
Bridesmaid
Bride's kabarkada since Grade 2 and all around Best Girl. A bona fide no-questions-asked gem-of-a-person. Miss Congeniality has nothing on her, Man's World does not deserve her, etcetera.
Groomsman
Bride's bunso brother. Smash bro number two. Has been known to play two different video games on two different screens while watching netflix on a third screen. Amaze.
Bridesmaid
Groom's younger sister. Currently teaching the young in Guatemala, worrying about fitting into this dress.
