Maid of Honor
The Sultan of swat! The king of crash! The colossus of clout! The Great Bambino...KATIE PARR! Katie is my sister, Matron of Honor and the real MVP. She is a funny, strong, independent and caring person who will always have your back. Katie is a super chill chick but don't get on this feisty, redheaded Latina's bad side! Not only is she my sista 4 lyfe, but she also has given me the gift of being an aunt to 1.5 sweet little babies. She may or may not give birth to baby Parr #2 whilst at the altar. When you see her, feel free to ask her any dermatological questions you might have!
Bridesmaid
Hailing from Duxbury, Massachusetts, Monica and I met on Bid Day as Freshmen at UofA and quickly became my darty partner for the next 4 years. I quickly learned of her ability to drop it low on a dance floor, whip up a wicked good smoothie, and chug beers better than any man that was brave enough to try. Now, as a bona fide adult, Monica's talents have evolved to slaying everything at a logistics company, and working out more than the rest of the wedding party combined. Be sure to talk to her about The Patriots or Tom Brady, avocado toast, lobstah, oysters or her Nana.
Bridesmaid
The Globetrotter, Free Spirit, Partner in Crime: Meet Haley. Haley and I met at Alabama where I quickly learned she knew almost every person in Tuscaloosa. She had the ability to end each night without ever having to pay a bar tab and to be the life of the party all while changing her major 3 times and being the manager of a high-end Tuscaloosa restaurant. (Nick & Terry Saban's go-to spot) Haley's passion is traveling the world, meeting new people and keeping life interesting, and I am extremely jealous of her many adventures! Be sure to ask her about her backpacking trip after graduation, how many states she's lived in within the past 4 years, and her dog daughter Sophie.
Bridesmaid
Built by Bama, Morgan and I met as Freshmen at UofA and were roommates for 3 years (honorary roommate for 2). We majored in Management & Marketing and would coordinate our schedules so we took all of the same classes. We were basically together all day, every day for 3 years. Growing up with her mom and 4 sisters, I quickly learned there is nothing Morgan can't handle. Morgan is an intelligent, trustworthy and loyal friend - She is the true definition of a Ride or Die chick. Be sure to talk to her about her pride & joy, Harper, Lil Wayne, Milos, or anything Walgreens related. Don't bring up that one time she worked for the Yellow Pages.
Bridesmaid
T(r)ampa Prep's finest, Megan and I became BFFs Freshman year at Alabama. I posted a flyer at my sorority house about needing roommates for my on-campus house. Thankfully, she claimed the room across the hall from mine - The rest is history. We have had many late nights together, whether it be at a bar, pulling all-nighters because we both waited until the last minute to study for a final, driving around in the car blasting Rhianna, or bailing our cars out of the impound lot. So many memories - most are a little too blurry. I quickly learned of her ability to binge watch shows in record time, her love for Quaker Squares cereal and Easy Mac (until i made her try the fried catfish). We've laughed, we've cried, and thankfully we've matured a bit over the years.
Bridesmaid
Another T(r)ampa local, Shannon and I met at Alabama Freshman year, where she became my adopted sister. (legally by sorority standards & figuratively) Perfectionist, honest, loyal friend, gym partner, jokester, and dedicated to her work. Shannon is the daughter/granddaughter I strive to be. She is the kind of girl that will go out all night with you then go to mass with you Sunday morning. Her sense of humor is magical and her ability to constantly keep me laughing amazes me. I quickly learned she loves watching the same movie on repeat and oiling the leather seats in her car daily. Shannon will NEVER back down from a double-dare and can spend an ungodly amount of money at the craft store. Shannon is good people.
Best Man
Even though Ed used to beat me up and swindle me in trading card deals when we were kids, I still love him. If you're a fan of photography that features young brothers that were forced to do photoshoots wearing the same stupid outfit by their crazy mother, Ed and I have you covered. Despite taking residence in NYC, his hobbies include Trail Running, Open Water Fishing, Snow-Skiing, and really any other outdoor activity in which he doesn't have to engage in small talk. Talk to him about his Spotify playlist "Moak Streetz," Boat Trader, what's biting, his old Instagram that chronicled the shenanigans of subway rats, Baby Boomers, and the season he and my dad went to every UGA game. Do not talk to him about work.
Best Man
Many moons ago, Kevin thought I was going to be a pathetic loser before we met one another at Princeton... After living together long enough to legally file for a domestic partnership, and standing beside him at his own wedding, one could say that I grew on him. A decent golfer, a phenomenal campus golfer, Kevin has a high tolerance for elbow pain, loves being by the Ochean, hanging on the Front Perch, and cruising a Bird down the Beltline. Do talk to him about the Braves, Falcons, Jordan Spieth, Taylor Swift, His Pooka Shell Necklace, and his dogs Toby and Cooper. Do not talk to him about that time I beat him at Ping Pong at Victory Sandwich Bar, Mike Krzyzewski, skateboards, or your cat.
Groomsman
The pride of Springfield, Illinois, Tim Quarterbacked the SHG Cyclones to State in '08. After an illustrious career of wearing a backward hat and impersonating Bob Surace at Princeton, he hung up the spikes to practice law. His loves include The Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Guinness, Jameson, Ireland, his family, and the smash hit "Shallow" from that movie with Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga. Talk to him about his book-- "Ireland's Forgotten Son: Rediscovering John Redmond in Irish Newspapers," how to properly coif your hair high, orange shorts, his shamrock tattoo, and if people are getting the joke or not. Do not talk to him about James Perry, Tom Donegal, his hamstrings, or Georgia's all-time record against Notre Dame.
Groomsman
A fellow teacher and coach, my future brother-in-law and I share a great deal in common. For example, we're both history guys, we both coach, we both have a Masters in Athletic Administration, we both teach a Leadership class using the same book, and we're both balding quicker than we'd like. Needless to say, the Perez girls have a type. Little known fact, had Davidson made the right decision in recruiting, we'd be talking about Aaron instead of Steph Curry. I guess even Bob McKillop has his 'druthers. Talk to him about Atlanta United, his dog Chipper, Pete Carrill's Princeton Offense, how awesome the flower girl was, and bike-able spots in Decatur. Don't talk to him about doing shots, Seagulls in Ocean City, the NextDoor app, or getting your kid into St. Pius.
Groomsman
Our future President of the United States of America. Jacob beat you all to a mid-life crisis at 18 after the 2008 election. To continue his tailspin, in 2009, Jacob got stuck with Kevin and me as freshman roommates in 103 Joline. After graduating Magna Cum Laude from Princeton, and making Forbes' 30 under 30 for Law and Policy, it's fair to say he's the smartest person in the wedding party. His loves include free Shabbat wine, Sheepdogs, a good debate, and gambling in Atlantic City. Do talk to him about banning microtransactions in video games, Juul Laboratories, the Junkyard, whether or not it is raining, and the night we got Bin Laden. Do not talk to him about suppressing civil liberties, the politics of hummus, or the proper way to pour Apple Juice.
