MacKenzie & Brett
Wedding Party
Brett Bennett
Groom
Brett is a Southern California native whose life is a blend of precision and adventure. As a professional golfer, accomplished home chef, and devoted outdoorsman, Brett brings a unique energy to everything he does. Raised in Huntington Beach, Brett's love for golf began early. He played his first round at Recreation Park 9 Golf Course in Long Beach. He went on to play collegiate golf at the University of California, Santa Barbara, earning All-Big West honors and leading the team in stroke average. Turning professional in 2021, Brett has since played on the PGA Tour Canada for the 2022-2023 season and currently travels coast to coast for tournaments. When he's not on the course, Brett can be found at Whole Foods, at a local butchery, or in the backyard making a medley of smoked meats. On Sundays, he makes fresh sauces including chimichurri, verde sauces, and romesco. His culinary skills are as refined as his swing, making him a favorite host for gatherings. You may have attended one of his famous sushi parties, a Hawaiian plate party, or even a Greek feast. Brett is also an avid outdoorsman. He enjoys fishing and hunting, finding peace and exhilaration in nature's embrace. His favorite place to unwind is Catalina Island, where he can enjoy ocean activities such as diving, fishing, and wakeboarding. Brett also loves to hunt pig, quail, and duck in AZ and CA. His dream hunt is booked for 2026 - a mountain backpacking trip for big game with his dad and family friends.
MacKenzie LeMunyan
Bride
Raised in Southern California, Mackenzie LeMunyan is currently a transactional attorney with a passion for both her legal career, cuisine, aesthetics, and her french bulldog. Mackenzie earned her Juris Doctor degree in the Bay area and works as an associate in Palo Alto. Her practice focuses on corporate and transactional matters, including M&A and private equity investments, venture capital transactions, and private equity fund formation. Outside of her legal profession, Mackenzie is an avid foodie with a particular love for seafood. She enjoys exploring new restaurants and trying new recipes, often drawing inspiration from her favorite platform, Pinterest. Her appreciation for fine wine complements her culinary adventures, making her a connoisseur of both taste and style. She is even a Yelp Elite. MacKenzie also enjoys curating spaces that are functional and beautiful. Whether it’s organizing a pantry down to the last jar of spices or planning a vacation, she’s the person you turn to when you need someone who’s both methodical and creative. Born with an eye for aesthetics, it's no surprise that one of the great loves of her life is her beloved blue merle French Bulldog, Remi. With her unique marbled coat, bat-like ears, and a personality that’s equal parts stubborn and sweet, Remi has been MacKenzie’s best friend through thick and thin (for the past (1) year of Remi's life). From Sunday morning cuddles to duck walks at the waterfront, the two are truly inseparable.
Lady Remington Wiggles Bennett
Honor Attendant
Meet Remi—the perfect French Bulldog and the four-legged Honor Attendant whose presence on this wedding day is anything but honorary. A connoisseur of the finer things, Remi prefers a diet of raw meat, over-easy quail eggs, steamed sweet potato, fresh blueberries, and a dollop of yogurt for dessert. She also has a meticulous supplement regime. You won’t catch her begging for table scraps—she has standards. Her morning routine includes a brisk walk, a round of zoomies, and a passionate game of soccer with her favorite tiny pink ball. Yes, you read right-soccer, not fetch. Don’t let her bougie palate and cute fat face fool you—Remi has opinions. She loathes her harness even though it was special ordered for comfort (and will stage a protest if she even sees it), despises baths, and absolutely refuses to be bossed around. Commands are mere suggestions in Remi’s world. She may not give a speech or sign the guest book, but with a wiggle and a snort of approval, Remi’s presence speaks volumes: loyalty, unconditional love, and just the right amount of drama. Fun Facts About Remi: *Biggest Fear: All Dyson products including vacuum, airwrap, etc. *Travel Accomplishment: Slept 15 straight hours on a road trip—still unmatched. Was angered each time when groom woke her to pee. *Signature Look: Pink ball in her mouth, giving side-eye *Known For: Snoring like a grown man, falling asleep anywhere and under any circumstances (picture proof) *Spirit Animal: A cat (if you know you know)
