Hannah & Thomas
Our Wedding Party
Nikk Chapman
Best Man
"I first met Tom on a bus back from school when we were 16. So many great memories of the big guy - an evening with the Romford Pele, mother-son singstar renditions, Spanish language lessons and of course, the great hide and seek New Year's Eve! So happy for you both on your big day xx." - Nikk
Ryne Holmes
Man of Honor
"From Lauren Lu's Operations class at UNC Business School to all of the great times in DC - countless concerts tailgating with Chick-fil-a nuggets to Nats games preceded by the Bullpen or Baseball Boat, two things were always consistent: my great friendship with Hannah and Miller Lite." - Ryne
Joe Trott
Groomsman
"I've been friends with Tom since our first year at Senior School and we've had so many experiences together. From entire days playing football at the park, being on the same terrible 5-a-side team, to attending the World Cup in Germany together. We were also members of the same Scout troop, hung out playing pool and PlayStation in the "Lodge", went to Namibia together where we helped out a National Park building road signs and viewing platforms and saw the most amazing animals. He's one of the most generous and kind-hearted people I know and I'm so pleased he has found a shared soul in Hannah." - Joe
Kelsey Gustaveson
Bridesmaid
"Our freshman year of college (when we should have been studying for exams), Hannah and I decided to stay up all night to the watch the Royal Wedding, sleeping on the couches of our campus ministry center. We drank tea, laughed at the funny hats of all the guests, and grew in friendship. I'm so excited to watch Hannah plan her own wedding now - we will keep the crazy wedding hats at home for this one :)" - Kelsey
Jon Moore
Groomsman
"Tom and I have been mates since school, we were housemates for a bit after uni and travel buddies on so many amazing holidays. We share a love all sports and always try to catch a game of something whenever we go away. A memory that always makes me laugh was at an NFL game in the US a few years ago. Tom decided to wear his Bears jersey to a Packers game...somehow he forgot about the rivalry and was subject to endless abuse all game. His only comeback was 'I'm British'." - Jon
Anna Brown
Bridesmaid
"We met at UNC and have been friends for over 6 years. We've been so fortunate to have many fun adventures and memories together! We've been airboat riding in the Miami everglades, hiking the National Parks of Utah, gambling in Vegas, ice skating in Central Park, and of course, sightseeing in London! However, my favorite memory of us is when we "accidentally" paid $50+ to do a "color run" 5k in circles around an abandoned parking lot in DC...in the snow. Needless to say it was a disaster but so much fun! We still laugh about it to this day." - Anna
Mark Young
Groomsman
"I met Tom over 20 years ago on a bus back from school. We've been friends ever since and his more-the-merrier approach to everything he did and organised for us growing up is probably the reason I have such a great group of close friends today! So many funny Tom stories to share but I will never forget seeing a fried egg launched like a frisbee out of a Munich hotel window into a tree on the other side of the road, after it had the nerve to turn up in hungover Tom's McMuffin that morning..." - Mark
Mara Owen
Bridesmaid
"Even through switching jobs and moving to different areas of DC (more than once), we still managed to meet back in Rosslyn, VA every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday for HIIT bootcamp with Victor. The beginning of our bootcamp years helped our friendship flourish. Although, I'm not sure how much working out we did because we were chatting so much!" - Mara
Josh Pocock
Groomsman
"Growing up Tom was always the clever, polite, diligent one - but as his brother, I often got to see a different side. We got ourselves into all kinds of scrapes - with the pampas grass at the end of the garden, or with Dad on Brentwood High Street. Bad influences aside, Tom's the kind of brother that anyone would be lucky to have...I'm just glad that he's found a new partner in crime!" - Josh
Mari Pereia Dos Santos
Bridesmaid
"All of my favorite memories with Hannah are from the countless trips we've taken together to see UNC basketball and football play! Win or lose, we have so many great memories, like the times we went to Charlottesville, VA to see UNC football play Virginia and where we ended up on donkey farm and sampling 20+ wines at a local vineyard. We also went to Chicago together to see UNC basketball play where we stalked the players at their hotel..." - Mari
James Bailey
Groomsman
"I have endless amazing memories with Tom, but if I had to pick one, it would be every car ride I've ever had with him. We crank up Sam Smith and sing (scream) until we get to our destination. I am so happy he has found someone as crazy and lovely as him xx" - James
Sarah Peterson (In Memory)

In memory of my sister, Sarah, who is now at peace in heaven. <3
