Tianna & Mark
Wedding Party
Sydney Smiley
Maid of Honor
Sydney's last name says it all, she is literally Tianna's smiley friend! Tianna & Sydney first became friends through their shared love of dance, and they have been inseparable ever since. Sydney is Tianna's down-to-earth and up for anything friend! You can almost always find them at Winners together, which is something that Mark is thrilled about as he no longer gets dragged along. But, if they're not there then they're likely just running errands, grabbing a coffee, or hanging out at home together.
Craig Korte
Best Man
Craig is Mark’s ‘Big’ brother and also his best man. Separated by just two years, they share many interests and experiences. Their relationship is steeped in a lifetime of inside jokes, youthful memories, and brotherly love. Certainly the more social and adventurous of the two brothers, Craig’s many experiences make him a great confidant and advisor to Mark. Craig has always been notable for how he blazes his own trail and is never shy to share his opinion.
Emily Cook
Bridesmaid
Emily & Tianna first met in grade 5, when Tianna’s family moved to Onoway. Emily was Tianna’s first best friend in the new hometown. Their friendship has always been the type that picks right back up where it left off, regardless of how many months have passed since they've seen each other. Em is one of Tianna’s quietest friends, but you'll constantly find her making the bride belly laugh with her witty comments. She is also always down to do a shot of tequila with Tianna, regardless of how much she hates it. That's a true friend.
Justin Lawrence
Groomsman
One of Mark’s oldest friends, Justin has been there every step of the journey and perfectly fits the mold of a loyal, authentic friend. Justin and Mark share a lot of memories from their football careers which have galvanized their friendship in a rare way. The two often find themselves deep in conversation about completely meaningless topics or the recounting of the many characters they have come across together over the years. Justin has a way of injecting fun into any situation and is someone who his friends can always depend on.
Megan Sullivan
Bridesmaid
Megan is Tianna's fun-spirited, thoughtful, goofy friend. Their friendship first started when Tianna's family moved to Onoway, but really enhanced after they aced their duet to Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer on the trumpets in grade 8 band. They now bond most on their love for ridiculous dance moves on nights out, their new titles of plant-moms, the need for naps to get them through the day in sunny Mexico, and their poor tendency to be fashionably-late for almost all events.
Joe McQuay
Groomsman
Joe is undeniably a person that is hard to not have a good time around. Joe and Mark’s friendship kicked off in university with many memorable, but not so well remembered evenings with friends at Joe’s place, known at the time as "The Bear House." With Joe in the room, both jokes and ice cold beers are bound to crack, shortly followed by his big laugh and the rest of the room with him.
Danielle Medernach
Bridesmaid
Danielle and Tianna's friendship began after meeting through a mutual friend, and grew even stronger when Tianna started high school in Spruce Grove. If the two had a dollar for every time someone asked if they were sisters, they'd be rich. Danielle is Tianna's planner friend, so it's no shock that they're bffs! Danielle is thoughtful and reliable, and has always been there to step up to the plate for Tianna, with her most recent action being stand-in boyfriend at university convocation when Mark was living in Ottawa. She's also Tianna's ice cream loving friend, so if they're not at home hanging out they're probably at The Whole Scoop.
Colby Miller
Groomsman
Colby and Mark met in high school and continued as friends while they played football together in University. Colby strikes a balance between a responsible friend to set an example as well as the life of the party when the moment calls for it. He is also happy to share his wisdom that he gained through his 4 years working in the construction industry. Colby and Mark can commonly be found diving deep into lunch at their favourite all you can eat sushi place or talking at length about their dogs – two activities that often go hand in hand.
