Meghan & Peter
Wedding Party
Erin McLaughlin
Maid of Honor
Despite sometimes being mistaken for twins, Erin is Meghan's younger sister. Before Erin was even born, Meghan knew that they would be best friends (she was also intent on naming Erin "San Diego"). Through the years they've bonded through family vacations, dance classes, and being around one another 24/7. While they have many similarities, Erin's sense of humor and easygoing attitude has always helped bring Meghan's Type A personality down to earth.
Tim McCall
Best Man
Peter was an uninvited guest to his brother Tim's third birthday party, something that would set a precedent for their relationship. Tim is a pillar of thoughtfulness, hard work, consistency, sacrifice, patience, and morality whose only failing grade ever received was in teaching Peter how to act out. In what seems like a blink of an eye, Peter and Tim will soon both be married (in an unconcious attempt to "repay" Peter for his third birthday, Tim married Charlotte in June 2018, just 11 months before Peter and Meghan).
Jayne Guare
Bridesmaid
Jayne and Meghan originally met in 1st grade at Pfaff Elementary where they once got sent to the principal's office for being mean to boys who wanted to play with them. Meghan moved to a different school the next year, but they reunited in high school where they grew close over a shared hatred of choir and enjoyment of lifetime activities (aka the easiest gym class ever). The total opposite of Meghan, Jayne's warm and outgoing personality brings Meghan out of her shell.
Andrew Lew
Best Man
What started as banter about the likes of Jim Jarmusch and Forrest Whitaker during freshman soccer drills at George School became an enduring friendship. Through a host of experiences that include starting a band, weekends in NYC, concerts, bad movies, and a gaggle of inside jokes, Andrew has been an enduring source of love and support for Peter.
Chelsea Koerbler
Bridesmaid
Chelsea is Meghan's cousin. Growing up, they had a love-hate relationship where Chelsea would make fun of Meghan and snoop around her room with Erin and Meghan would blame Chelsea for things like breaking her favorite Barbie's head off. Somehow as they got older, they realized they were more similar than not and they grew to enjoy each other's company. Chelsea's sarcastic nature always makes her a fun time to be around (even if she's poking fun at Meghan).
Kyle Mills
Groomsman
A lifelong companion, Kyle and Peter grew up together. As children, the Lawrenceville School campus, where both of their parents worked, served as their playground. Kyle and Peter weathered adolescent turmoil together and have supported each other through the travails of young adulthood.
Beth Hoffman
Bridesmaid
Meghan and Beth met when they lived in House 64 during their internships at Longwood Gardens in 2011-12. Despite being long-distance (Beth lives in Raleigh), they've maintained a friendship ever since through regular phone calls, trips to each other's cities and exploring Charleston and Asheville.
Aaron Abel
Groomsman
Aaron and Peter have shared a number of common interests since college - anything and everything Mike Kinsella, being fraternity brothers, indie and emo music. Their friendship continued after college through the four years they spent as roommates in Malvern. During this time, they provided each other with companionship as they experienced the joys and pangs of navigating work, life, and love as young adults.
Amanda George
Bridesmaid
Amanda and Meghan met during their freshman year at Susquehanna where they lived next door to one another in Aikens Hall. When Meghan and Amanda are together, the most ordinary activity turns into an adventure. Amanda also strongly encouraged Meghan and Peter to date (when they barely knew one another), making her one of the most successful matchmakers ever.
Zach Soulliard
Groomsman
Measures of central tendency, analysis of variance, cognitive dissonance, 'tis the season, stallions, and the steamboat create an unlikely lexicon for Peter and Zach's dear friendship. Peter and Zach met in college where they were both Psychology majors and fraternity brothers. Zach helped make statistics understandable to Peter. Zach, along with Meghan's bridesmaid, Amanda, were instrumental in helping Meghan and Peter begin to date.
Allison Eby
Bridesmaid
Meghan and Allison met during gym class in high school where they bonded over a shared love of the same TV shows (notably The OC and anything on Bravo). That shared love of popular culture developed into a long friendship that's lasted through high school cheerleading (don't ask to see the photos), college, and adulthood. And they still regularly gossip about Bravo-lebrities and think The OC was the best show ever made.
Dave Foster
Groomsman
Peter's friendship with Dave was catapulted via their participation in a role-play designed to help train resident assistants at the start of their sophomore year at Susquehanna University. Since then, they have shared inane jokes and developed a rapport where they can always pick up where they left off.
