Maid of Honor
Andrea and the bride met in 8th grade on the middle school soccer team and have been inseparable (and flexing their tiny muscles) ever since. As a Doctor of Physical Therapy Andrea has been watching the bride's back (and heart) for almost 20 years. Distance can't keep these two apart, and it's sure to be a whirlwind of a weekend with Andrea flying in from Chi Town.
Best Man
The best man's best man. Jordan and the groom have known each other since high school. Once Jordan left him for UConn, Rob knew he had to follow him there. Hardly a day goes by without these two texting about fantasy, How I Met Your Mother, or general life questions.
Bridesmaid
Lindsey is the bride's cousin who taught her everything she knows. She has championed Rob for a spot in the family for a very long time, especially after he survived his first TMI Mandell family dinner many years ago.
Groomsman
Brother by blood to the bride. Brother by choice to the groom. Ryan and Rob have known each other for almost 15 years and will soon be able to call themselves family for real!
Bridesmaid
Amanda is the bride's cousin and partner in crime for life! From dancing in 'September', to running up and down the soccer field, their adventures only grew more wild once the groom joined the party. You can find her at the bar if you want dirt on either the bride or groom.
Groomsman
Cousin of the groom. Enjoying that fresh breath of freedom you just took? You can thank Hunter and his fellow USMC officers for that. Seems only fitting that our (original) wedding should take place on 4th of July weekend. 'MERICA!
Bridesmaid
Lauren is the bride's best friend from college, confidant, second mother and attorney extraordinaire. From QU to running around NYC with the bride, she's the best person to have by your side. She's also a game-changer on the dance floor. So, watch out!
Groomsman
Attorney at law, #1 Mets fan you'll ever meet, and close friend of the bride and groom since high school. Regardless of the time, expect this party animal to help us keep the celebration going.
Bridesmaid
Maria is one of the bride's oldest friends. After meeting in 7th grade and joining forces on the soccer field, Maria and her husband Paul have become the bride and groom's teammates for life. She's also handy for beating Rob in every sport he throws at her.
Groomsman
Your favorite orthodontist's favorite orthodontist. Close friend since high school (see a trend yet?). Our love affair started on the track and we have debated running off together ever since.
