Matron of Honor
Older Sister of the Bride. Tall, smart, as beautiful as the bride, manages to do it all - corporate maven, raising two children and making it look easy. Loves Marion, sailing, and her family. Her sister has always looked up to her and is so very grateful she is the Matron of Honor to her wedding and Suzy is the god-mother of her eldest.
Best Man
Father of the Groom. Served heroically with General John Pershing as he pursued Poncho Villa in 1917...Shake his had, if you can.
Head Bridesmaid
Bestie of the Bridesie, been being fabulous since the fourth grade and not going to stop now! Mother Clementine (that precocious little flower child), and older daughter Tilly (equally fabulous!). Suzy is the ONLY friend who has been in every one of Kate's homes since they were kids from Beverly, MA, NYC (flat-mates) to London, Paris, Nairobi, Johannesburg, and soon to visit her family in Brussels... Kate likes her S'mores, preferably in a jacuzzi, while watching movies... During the summer months, could have been mistaken as the third McManmon daughter. Mike and Suzy enjoyed their first international trip visiting the Fellens' in South Africa.... A 25+ year friendship that the bride is extremely grateful for.
Groomsman
Brother of the Groom. HUGE AUBURN Fan! Everyone should greet him with and enthusiastic, "WAR EAGLE!"! Maybe bring any form of tiger, eagle, or orange and navy gear and put it in his chair.
Bridesmaid
Friend of Bride - Ocean Reef girlfriend and very talented Artist if you would like to find some new artwork or if you like good conversation and laughs, find this chick in the crowd! Proud Mama of Wolf (4 yr old son), former NYC Socialite, turned Southern Belle-ish. Sometimes partner in crime and health.
Groomsman
BEST friend of the Groom and expert Carpenter - if you need any woodworking! Old enough to know Ernie Banks and Merle Haggard. 1965 meets 2019...love you buddy! He is also a hell of a dancer and we can't wait to see him rip it up with his better half!
Bridesmaid
Middle Daughter of the Groom. Proud Mama of the adorable ring bearer- Liam. One of the sweetest and at the same time most protective woman I know. The world has yet to see what this Mama Bear will achieve and we feel very good about the outlook.

Youngest Daughter of the Groom. Following in her dad's footsteps attending Auburn University. Like her dad she has a love for things from the Northeast so watch out world- Bizzie is coming and going to make a difference!
Groomsman
Little Brother of the Beautiful Bride. Nautical Genius, Wall Street Tycoon (but not Gorgon Gecco level quite yet), loves a good time, chameleon of crowd, loves music and to give his big Sis a hard time. Tommy can be the life of the party and we hope he brings that to the wedding!

Another Maid of Honor, Identifying as a Groomsman
Best guy friend of the Bride. Exceptionally helpful to the Groom, as to how to navigate New England Philosophy vs. Alabama; also a very good furniture stacker. Ladies, this guy is SINGLE! He is your tall glass of water, brunette, deep dark mysterious eyes, big strong hands, and top agent, dominating the high end Real Estate landscape of Boston! This guy knows everyone, he's gregarious, he's funny, he's the type to take you out for a night on the town and then be there to bail you out when you have too much fun! If you're looking for a good time, definitely find David...sometimes goes by "Cody", or "King of Boston" - because he's just THAT cool!
Groomsman
Cousin of the Bride. One of the noblest people the Groom has ever had the pleasure of meeting. Great Father and Husband, although sometimes forgets the stroller when walking his 2-year-old around the National Mall - but hey, maybe he's training for another Iron Man. Suzy's first roommate that ended in an argument over G.I. Joe theme vs. Pink everything... Politically aligned exactly like the Groom and loves to talk shop about energy preservation and clean air campaigns.
Bridesmaid
Eldest Cousin of the Bride. Huge influence on Suzy's life and the reason she ended up at Duke, rather than a North Eastern Alma Mater. World Traveler, who Suzy's had the pleasure of visiting when she lived in Hong Kong and now Switzerland with her three Beautiful Boys and husband Lucke.
Bridesmaid
Long time friend of Bride and introduced Mike and Suzy. Brandi and her family are the reason Suzy moved to Alabama and she helped/ still helps Suzy navigate the ways of the South.

Cousin of the Bride, Modern Artist living in Fisher Island with her relatively new husband Matt. Tryn always walks to the beat of her own drum, she is very talented and very interesting and We're grateful to be related to someone so strong and driven.
Flower Girl
God Daughter and Niece of the Bride. Three year old pile of smiles and adorableness; likely very upset that she is not wearing pink or mermaid attire - although she will always be our little mermaid princess! She maybe young but she has a BIG personality and her Aunt is obsessed with her. She will likely find away to upstage the bride and the bride couldn't careless.
Ring Bearer
Groom's namesake and Grandson, Son of Chloe (Groom's Daughter). Third Son that the Groom claims; great wrestler, future Defensive End in the SEC - probably for Auburn.... Although, if he plays for Auburn, chances are, Alabama will beat him most of his college career.
Flower Child
God Daughter of the Bride. Four years old, world traveler, born in London, lived in South Africa and now roughing it in her estate in Brussels. This little precocious angel will be having a large time on the dance floor (likely with her awesome sister) - probably showing us dance moves we don't even know. They are keeping up the tradition are having fun in marion no mater what.

Father of the Groom
Also the Best Man - enough said
Mother of the Bride
The matriarch of the Thomas McManmon family- the glue that holds us together and the strongest woman I've ever met. The amount of admiration and love the Bride holds for her is immeasurable. She taught us to be who we are.
Father of the Bride
The bride's hero. The most amazing man she's ever known who has overcome more than she can ever imagine. No man has ever come close to measuring up to my dad than Mike. He is my heart and my inspiration. I can't wait for him to walk me down the isle
Puppy Child of the Bride & Groom
Pure bread, Norwich Terrier, terribly spoiled and loves cuddling with Mike! Also, she's a licker, so beware.
