Bentley Family

———————————-

Christopher Bentley

Father of the Groom

One of the kindest and most generous people I've known, we lost my Father Chris Bentley to cancer earlier this year. You could always count on him for a joke to lighten the mood and his laughter lit up the room. We miss him dearly and know that he and Tom will be with us at the wedding in spirit.

Wendy Wurtzburger Bentley

Mother of the Groom

My mother Wendy has been a constant source of inspiration throughout my life. Not only is she the best Mom that anyone could have asked for, but she also constantly inspires me with her passion for traveling, art and food. We lovingly call her the 'soup guru' because she has a new and interesting soup on the stove everytime we have dinner at home.

Volini Family

Thomas Volini

Father of the Bride

Although Tom is no longer with us he is missed and he will be with us in spirit. He was an inspiration to us all with the kindest heart and an ability to bring the best out in everyone around him ❤️

Loretta Volini

Mother of the Bride

Loretta is the mother of twelve and the grandmother of sixteen and counting! She is witty and kind and always has a good story to tell. She is beyond generous with her care and time in this massive crew of ours. We love you mom!

Charles Bentley

Best Man

Charlie is my big brother and has always been one of my best friends. We have grown up doing everything together, and I can't imagine anyone else as my best man. Not only is Charlie an incredible artist, but he is also an incredibly loyal, honest and fun person to be around. Looking forward to having him beside me on the altar in May!

Giulia Volini

Maid of Honor

My closest sister in age and the only girl for the job! Giulia may have wanted to be the youngest but I think she was meant to be my big sister. She is cool and edgy and has always inspired my music taste (listened to better music than me) Love you G!

Catherine Volini - Fraser

Bridesmaid

Catherine and Claire are identical twins and my second and third closest sisters. Catherine keeps us all looking glamorous and although Chicago born is a true LA girl at heart. The four of us were the youngest of our twelve kid crew and were tokened ‘the four little girls’

Claire Volini - Meisinger

Bridesmaid

Claire and Catherine are identical twins and my second and third closest sisters. Claire keeps us on our toes with her quick wit and hilarious ways. Claire is a brilliant writer and crucial member of the ‘four little girls’ crew.

Paul Bentley

Groomsman

Paul is my first cousin and has always been one of my closest friends. Since we were little kids we've always had a great time hanging out together, filming cheesy homemade horror movies, and watching obscure cinema. Paul is a talented writer, musician, filmmaker and metalworking artist.

Henry Hueck

Groomsman

Henry is one of my oldest friends! We've spent countless summers together boating around on Lake Huron, camping and exploring the great outdoors. Not only is he the most hilarious person I know, but he is also an incredibly smart, honest and loyal friend.
