Rachel & Bill
Wedding Party
Lois Perrin
Matron of Honor
My sister from another mister, I barely remember life before high school gym class brought Lois & I together and cannot fathom it without her. She is half my brain and my conscience, not to mention my 3am NKOTB dance party partner. We've been through life's highest highs and lowest lows together, and I am beyond grateful to have her standing next to me during this ultimate high. She is the family I choose today and every day. I'll be loving you forever, Lois Monkey Perrin. You're my favorite girl. -Rach
Melissa Gregg
Officiant
Let's be honest, none of us would be here if it weren't for Melissa. She saw the potential in this romance long before we would even entertain it. Thankfully, Melissa is nothing if not persistent, and she didn't give up on us. Turns out she was right and now she gets to say "I told you so" for the rest of our lives. So, it really only makes sense that she finish what she started and be the one to marry us. Plus, she's one of our best friends (and Rachel's forever Winey B) who we love more than our luggage. We can't think of a better person to be our officiant. - Rach & Bill
Leanne Dunn
Bridesmaid
Leanne is technically my sister-in-law, but I consider the "in-law" part superfluous. She's simply my sister, as far as I'm concerned. I hit the jackpot with Leanne; she transcended family status to become one my best friends, makes the most incredible desserts and manages to keep my brother in line (mostly). Oh, and she's actually part ninja warrior. For real. I cherish our time together and her unwavering support of my Target addiction. Having her with me on my wedding day is a gift and I am grateful every day. Love you, Leanne! - Rach
Lisa Pastirik
Bridesmaid
Who knew that when I walked into a Penn State Alumni meeting in Palm Beach six years ago, I'd find a bestie. No one has a more positive energy than Lisa, so I was thrilled when she agreed to meet me for a coffee date. It was full-speed friendship from there. From Friday happies to Saturday PSU games to Sunday brunches (and any other day that ends in Y), we were side-by-side. Now, we're 1400 miles apart, but she is by my side every day in my heart. So I'm thrilled that she'll be by my side on my wedding day. Lisa, you're my ride-or-die forever. Love you! -Rach
William McEllen
Best Man
Not just my father, but my friend. I have always looked up to him as someone I am proud to emulate. His nearly 50-year marriage to my mom is a beautiful model for me. I can't imagine anyone else standing next to me on my wedding day. -Bill
Scott Gregg
Groomsman
I owe an extreme debt of gratitude to Scott and his wife, Melissa, for introducing me to Rachel. Scott is one of the most solid guys I've ever known. Our families have been intertwined since childhood, and the bond our fathers share has been passed down to us. I look forward to carrying on the tradition of lifelong friendship.
Jeff Tauber
Groomsman
Friendship comes easily with Jeff. He is kind and generous beyond measure. He has been through thick and thin with me, and I know I can count on him whenever I need a laugh, a shoulder or a stiff drink... sometimes all at once. I'm grateful to have him standing with me on my wedding day. -Bill
