Wedding Party
Cassandra Smith
Matron of Honor
Cass is the matron of honor, one of the bride’s best friends, and easily one of the funniest people in the room. She balances saving lives as a nurse with keeping everyone laughing—and if she’s not doing one of those, she’s probably with her dog Tika (who might secretly be her favorite).
Hannah Maxwell
Maid of Honor
Hannah is the maid of honor and has been the bride’s best friend for 25 years—basically family at this point. She’s a creative baker and craft queen, best known for her dangerously addictive buffalo chicken dip, and is usually found with her dog Finn and boyfriend Troy… likely feeding them said dip.
Brijette Clerkley
Bridesmaid
Brijette is a bridesmaid and Joelle’s coworker at TeamTurf, equal parts voice of reason and creative mastermind. She’s a proud mom to Layla Clerkley, keeps her garden thriving, and somehow always knows exactly what to say. Add in a little Houston, Texas charm, and you’ve got someone who keeps things grounded—but never boring.
Crystal Conklin
Bridesmaid
Crystal is a bridesmaid and the bride’s sister—eight years older and fully equipped with a lifetime of stories. She lives in Phoenix, bartends like a pro, and enjoys spending time with her dog Rocket and her cats—who clearly have her wrapped around their paws.
Andrea Bottoni
Bridesmaid
Andrea is a bridesmaid and has been friends with Joelle since kindergarten—so she has a lifetime of stories (and leverage). She’s a die-hard The Hunger Games fan who turned every movie release with Joelle and Karen into a can’t-miss annual event. Now living in Erie with her fiancé Reed, she’s still just as loyal—and always one rewatch away from volunteering as tribute.
Megan Gross
Bridesmaid
Megan is a bridesmaid and the groom’s sister—so she’s had a lifetime to gather stories about Jeff (and plenty of opportunities to share them). She’s the proud mom of ring bearers Alexander and Gavin, lives in Phoenix, and is happiest enjoying yoga, teaching Pilates, a good glass of wine, and time with her dogs, Buddy and Roxy.
Kathryn Conklin
Bridesmaid
Katie is a bridesmaid and the bride’s cousin, known for her strong work ethic and dedication to everything she does. When she’s not getting things done, she’s happiest spending time with her cat Honey—who likely thinks Katie works that hard just to provide a better life for her.
Nathan Smith
Best Man
Jeff and Nate have been friends for over a decade—bonded by workouts, volleyball, and a healthy amount of competition. Nate’s seen it all, which makes him the perfect Best Man… and the perfect guy to keep Jeff in check on the big day.
Matthew Mauclair
Groomsman
Jeff and Matt are running buddies in every sense—logging miles, sharing laughs, and fully embracing their undeniable bromance. If Jeff’s missing, there’s a good chance he’s out on a run with Matt.
Sebastian Rearick
Groomsman
Sebs is a groomsman and the group’s resident tech wizard—if something’s broken, he’s already fixing it. He’s incredibly smart, into anime, and one of the most thoughtful, considerate people you’ll meet (even if he makes it all look effortless).
Anthony Termin
Groomsman
Anthony Termin is a groomsman and a gym teacher, so he naturally keeps everyone in line (and on their toes). He’s a proud husband and dad, bringing the perfect mix of energy, patience, and dad-level humor to the group.
Alexander Hardwick
Groomsman
Alex is a groomsman and fellow swim coach, known for bringing plenty of energy—and volume—wherever he goes. He’s never short on enthusiasm, which makes him both entertaining and exactly the kind of guy you want on your team.
