Growing up together they spent April vacations in Disney World, summers at the beach with their cousins, and a long weekend in October in Acadia National Park (where Lane proposed to Sarah)!

If you are looking for Emily just find the person talking non stop - that's her!
Kyle Maynard
Groomsman
Kyle is one of Lane's former roommates and his first friend at WVU. Kyle and Lane spent most of their 6 years in college hiking, rock climbing, and getting lost in various woods. You can find Kyle with an old fashioned in his hand telling you about the time he was in a Kenny Chesney music video.
Meg Carter

One of Sarah's best friends! Sarah was invited to some random girl's birthday party - surprise, that girl was Meg! They instantly fell in love at the very first Margs for Meg celebration weekend and have been in love ever since!

Adam Daugherty
Groomsman
Lane's brother-in-law, married to Lane's stepsister Katey! Adam and Lane met one fortuitous night while the two had just graduated high school. From there, the two became friends in college and, through a strange turn of events, brothers-in-law. You can find Adam chasing down his son, Winston.
Amalia Quesada Nylen
Bridesmaid
Sarah's eldest cousin - only 4 months older than her. Sarah used Amalia's hair to curl as they fell asleep since Sarah's was too short. Only one of the two enjoyed this. Amalia was always there for Sarah growing up... to remind her just how much she talked!
Andrew Sealy
Groomsman
Andrew is Lane's friend from college! Lane and Andrew met on a two-week long trip to Utah in the summer after their freshman year. Andrew and Lane would spend the next few years in journalism classes, summer internships, and once competing in a short film festival. You can find Andrew giving virtual tours of WVU.
Lucía Quesada Nylen
Bridesmaid
Sarah's cousin who can guarantee a party. She is the only one who took the childhood wrestling matches to the next level; professionally pursuing fitness and continuing to practice on her siblings and cousins. Whatever you do, don't hand her a karaoke mic.
Gordon Space Wong
Groomsman
Gordon is Lane's first friend in DC! The two were roommates by chance, but made quick friends after discovering their shared love for Game of Thrones and Infinite Jest. Gordon and Lane own multiple matching pieces of clothing and can often be found golfing together. You can find Gordon...actually, Gordon will likely find you and introduce himself.
Leine Dietz
Bridesmaid
Sarah and Leine grew up spending endless hours in the dance studio together building their love for dance and for each other. Their friendship grew when they both worked at a wedding catering company, sharing horror stories of nightmare crowds. Leine and Sarah's love story continued across many states during college when they rushed the same week and ended up in the same sorority, Phi Sigma Sigma, continuing to cement their love story. You can find Leine in a tux passing out hors d'oeuvres, just like in high school! Just kidding!
Fady Tawadrous
Groomsman
Fady is one of Lane's DC friends. Fady and Lane became friends through their shared love of Chelsea FC, Go Karting in Philadelphia, and the Paddington film series. If you're looking for Fady, he's likely taking photos with a film camera.
Dakota Pappas
Bridesmaid
Sarah's best friend of 14 years! Growing up they were basically like sisters spending most weekends together and surviving Anatomy. The two shared many, many, fun summer nights in high school - usually at the beach or on the water. Look for her near the bar hiding her own stash of Budweiser!
Aakash Pancholi
Groomsman
Aakash is one of Lane's coworkers and DC friends. Aakash and Lane grew close over lunch trips to Taco Bell Cantina where the two would complain about their respective jobs. Aakash and Lane now work together at a much better place and often golf together on the weekends. You can find Aakash hosting a Hot Ones-style contest at one of the tables.
Remy Aronson
Bridesmaid
Sarah's very first friend at college (even pre-college); they met at orientation! They spent many, many nights in the Kogod halls and many, many hours at Chef Geoff's enjoying a burger and Super Mugs. If there's anyone walking around with a clipboard, you've found Remy!
Sean Simons
Groomsman
Lane's friend from DC and golf partner. Lane and Sean's friendship really blossomed once the two began playing golf together, or more realistically, going for walks and losing a dozen golf balls along the way. You can find Sean talking about the upcoming Ryder Cup.
Kelly Phares
Bridesmaid
Kelly and Sarah met through their sorority in college. In fact, Kelly is Sarah's "little"! The first time they met they went on a date to Starbucks in an effort to get to know each other where they both sat in silence; while they worked on assignments. Somehow, through all the lack of talking, they knew they were a perfect match for each other. If you see Kelly please only refer to her as "K-Dawg".
Lucy Mink
Officiant
Lucy is a long time friend of Lane & Sarah. The three first met in D.C. while working together at Social Driver. Lucy has been an important part of many milestones in Lane & Sarah's love story; adventures and stories ranging from the pre-dating days to now, and taking them from Boston to NYC, and now Philly. Lane & Sarah consider themselves lucky to have such a supportive friend and role model in her own marriage, officiating their wedding day. If you are looking for Lucy just listen for the Taylor Swift music - she is sure to be wherever it's playing.
