Best Man
The day Sean was born, Matt had a best friend for life. Even though they didn't always see eye to eye as kids, they grew up to be the best of friends. Sean is insanely intelligent, fiercely loyal, a ton of fun (the stay at home and play board games and drink beer type of fun) and a great example of the type of husband and father that Matt hopes to be.
Matron of Honor
Christine's baby sister
Groomswoman
There's been a ton of change in Matt's life since 2003, but one thing that has never changed is the reliability of Miranda's friendship. Whenever Matt's needed advice, needed to vent or needed comfort after a questionable decision, Miranda was always a phone call or text message away. They share a love of coffee, television shows, Emo Nite, Coachella and baseball. She's an amazing human being, and Matt hopes they stay friends for life!
Bridesmaid
Christine's College Roommate
Groomsman
When Matt and Christine first met and started running together on Wednesday nights, Mike was the third wheel. He had a front row seat to the blossoming romance, and always encouraged Matt to "go for it buddy," Mike is smart, confident, hilarious, successful and a ton of fun (and not in the board games type of way). He was kind of surprised when Matt asked him to be a part of the wedding, but in Matt's eyes, he was very important to the start of the relationship with Christine, and Matt always has a great time when Mike is around.

Christine's Friend
Ring Bearer
Ronan is Matt's first and only nephew. He's an incredible little five year old filled with so much energy. He's so smart and incredibly honest...he'll even tell you that he doesn't want a gift that you've given him (Matt knows) ðŸ¤.
Flower Girl
Coraline is Matt's first and only niece. She can be a little shy at times, but she's adorable and every time she says something, it's either really funny or really smart. She still runs away from Matt sometimes, but she's really bonded closely with Christine. She might even like Christine better.
Officiant
Also known a GGMattB, Matt B is Matt's coworker at DeviantArt. Even though they've only known each other for about two years, Matt and Matt became fast friends at work, sharing a love of art, gaming, hosting events, social media and attending conventions. Matt B has a Ted Lasso-level of optimism, and has dedicated his career to helping to educate and elevate others around him. He's also another incredible example of the type of husband that Matt hopes to be. Matt and Christine have really enjoyed their time with him and his wife TeriLynn, and are very thankful he's agreed to be a part of our day.
