Kara & Tim
Wedding Party
Jillian George
Maid of Honor
devoted, thoughtful, a force we spent many spring and summer days in the new england heat. she had the quickest fastball this side of the Mississippi, and I made her look even better. an expert spell caster (wii harry potter, nerds), helped me throw my first party (hi mom + dad), and my road trip companion when I moved to Florida (#trucklife). most excellent mother to a most excellent pout--her daughter Catherine. velociraptors for life *does secret handshake*
Casey McDonald
Bridesmaid
playful, zesty, unconditional the softball tripod isn't complete without Patch, a nickname neither of us remember the context for but to this day persists as a most endearing term for each other. my zesty lefty--clever, charming, and the funniest person you'll ever meet. I'm pretty sure Tim likes her more than me. lover of Twilight and Friends, + a recent transplant to Charleston, SC who will happily drink ginger ales poolside with you until the sun comes up
Hillary Frank
Bridesmaid
exemplar, tongue-in-cheek, sister what can I say my dear, you are a most wonderful human. a public school English teacher doing the Lord's work. avid reader, the sharpest wit, and most certainly smarter than you. correcting sentence structure and the plagues of this world like it's going out of style. magnificent mama to the brightest of stars, my nephew Max. love you always, sister
Jenna Silva
Bridesmaid
darling, enduring, radical countless family weekends eating domino's and making you brush my hair. that's cousin love right there. a spirited, potent witch who I'm pretty sure would find no higher compliment than that. my baby sister for life. self-love advocate, cat mom, and conqueror of the spirit realm. if you don't know, you don't know, and we like it that way.
Katie Groves
Bridesmaid
jocular, free-spirited, a bona fide hustler in the words of Young Buck, Katie is, in fact, about that paper. get up at 6 am everyday for college tennis? sure. how about to go see your horse every weekend for the past ten years of your life? not a problem. or just because you feel like watching foreign tennis matches at ungodly hours? absolutely. while you're at it, why not fill up your spare time teaching little babes how to play? done. oh! and then why don't you go work ten hours at the family bar and then jet-set across the country? EASY. a whirlwind of movement and life this one. can also literally nap on command. impressive in all the ways
Cinnamon Raisin
Usher
Is dog. May have GoPro attached to his head to film the festivities. Will bark for pets.
Nick Solebello
Officiant
Brother! Droopy McCool--whose real name is actually a series of flute-like whistles unpronounceable by any other species--! Can turn a deck of cards into a loaded weapon. Or maybe that's some other guy. I like to picture us as Ross and Monica, but I suspect we're more Max and Dani. Or perhaps DeeDee and Dexter. We're honored to have you officiate our wedding, and I'm so glad you've accepted Tim into the family, even though he's clearly a terrible influence on your child. Would like to take the opportunity to say thank you for providing me with the most superior music taste in the world, which includes every conceivable 90s hit (a/k/a grocery store music), the punkest of rock (radical!), and some original R & B (we're obviously playing Return of the Mack at the wedding). It is a great pride in my life to call you my brother. I have learned that to be with those I like is enough.
Max Haskell Solebello
Ring Bearer
Our 5-year old nephew destined to create a working, functional, and safe Jurassic Park. Side gig--defeating the Galactic Empire. A true wizard with a lightsaber (which could be drumsticks). Favorite food is peeps (chips). And strawberry ice cream. Apparently a Mario Kart prodigy and will laugh in your face as he green shells you off Rainbow Road. Ferocious wrestler in the bounce house. Always ready to bring the pain.
Catherine Elizabeth McCann
Flower Girl
Four-asauraus of the Maid of Honor. Literally the funniest person we've ever met. Not even like toddler funny, an actual riot. Will tell you straight to your face that you are not, in fact, rocking that blouse. Will also pout up a damn storm if you deny her her rightful CiciLola. Has an opinion about everything and they are all correct. If she walks by a toy store, you better believe she is walking inside. She and Timmy connect on a fundamental level.
Dominick Tournour
Co-Best Man
math wizard, mediocre at other stuff, short We met in third or fourth grade, his dad chaparoned a field trip for us. His dad was cool so I decided we could be friends. Even though one time Dom tucked his backpack into his shorts in high school and walked around like that. He is the Bagel King Prince, which makes him American royalty. Will one day violently overthrow Einstein Bagels. Knows every player who has ever played for the Braves. He will not let you fall.
Andrew Ferrel
Co-Best Man
guitar hero sensei, UCF fan girl, hairy Another neighbor forced us to be friends before we started elementary school. Lowkey genius who we all forget is good at stuff and we're shocked when he wins every board game we play. Can quote every Will Ferrel movie. We don't think they're related, but you never know. Both hairy. Andrew's been there for me in the darkest moment of my life in that Jacksonville reststop bathroom. No man left behind. I wish I had left those boxers behind tho.
Kris Garcia
Groomsman
like arguing with a ferret, too many fancy shoes, would do anything for you I don't remember how we met but we walked home from school together in the fifth grade every day. My mom swears this never happened. We spent our time playing basketball outside and then going inside to play street basketball video games. His basketball skills rival that of the 1990 Detroit Pistons. His airballs have caused earthquakes in 4 states and his signature move was the fake no-look pass except he always looked. 10/10 best dressed of the squad.
Anthony Gagliano
Groomsman
golfs well, previously strong, now dad I don't really know how we met but we've played video games together since elementary school. He introduced me to that wretched sport of golf and I will never forgive him. He is superb at it, but a terrible instructor. He was once called "pretty good" by a world champion video game player, so he's basically the most famous person I know. He hates the color green and moved to Arizona to escape it. Questionable decision-making.
Matt Dembinski
Groomsman
basically follows every sports team in the world, ideal pick and roll partner, unrealistically tall He was a random roommate I met at UF when I was in undergrad and he was in an LL.M. Program (basically an advanced law degree for tax nerds). He put up with my four gallons of milk in the fridge and I put up with him throwing Xbox controllers when Enes Kanter hit three pointers against him in NBA 2K video games. He has only eaten at 3 resturants in his entire life. For some reason he loves the Knicks, Yankees, Giants, and Gators. He apparently enjoys misery and pain. Hates volleyball and mangroves. Rocks a killer deep-v.
