Maid of Honor
Jenna and Chrissy have been besties since their Step Brother-like introduction at Notre Dame freshman year (“Did we just become best friends??”). As fate would have it, Chrissy would have the same reaction when meeting Tyler years later, immediately solidifying her conviction that Jenna had met “the one.” Chrissy has remained a fixture in Jenna and Tyler’s lives ever since, sharing important life moments that definitely don’t involve IBS, and providing interior design tips and comic relief that is potentially, maybe slightly bested by Tyler himself.
Best Man
Steve is Tyler's father. While Tyler seems like he has it all together these days, don't worry, he raised some hell in his home town growing up and may have added a few premature grey hairs for Steve. Steve has been there for Tyler through the good times and the bad. When Tyler first left home in his early 20's, he set Tyler up for success with the best life advice and foundation to make him into the man he is today. Tyler couldn't wait to introduce Jenna to his family soon after they met and Steve said right off the bat welcome to the family.
Bridesmaid
The best description of Jenna and Emily's relationship is resident-mates turned soulmates. From the first week they met when Emily was a baby vet student and Jenna was in her first year of residency, they became instant best friends. Since then, they have traveled the world together, and eventually Tyler started to join in on the adventures. They have actually jumped off a cliff together, and if that doesn't say it all then I don't know what does.
Groomsman
Alex is Tyler's longtime best friend. Tyler and Alex first met in the 5th grade and it was history after that. Many questionable decisions were made while growing up, but somehow they both made it out alive. If Alex was to jump off a cliff, it was certain Tyler was jumping right behind him. Today their friendship remains just as strong, and Tyler feels lucky to have Alex in his corner. You can be sure if Tyler is giggling on the couch texting at night, Alex is probably the reason.
Bridesmaid
Amanda is the sister that Jenna never had. Jenna stayed with Amanda visiting her brother Patrick at Providence college almost 20 years ago (20 years??), and was so excited when she became an official part of the family. Jenna and Tyler have spent many-a-Sunday afternoon with the dogs racing around Amanda and Patrick's backyard.
Groomsman
Jason isn't just Tyler's step brother - he's been his brother in every way that matters since they were seven and eight years old. From the moment they met, they were inseparable: partner's in mischief, masters of laughter, and co-stars in living room concerts that left their family entertained. Now, as Tyler steps into this new chapter, Jason stands proudly by his side.
Bridesmaid
Sarah is Jenna's newest sister-in-law. As a fellow Notre Dame graduate, they have attended several ND football games together and both love cheering on the Irish! After bonding on Sarah's own bachelorette weekend over their love of wine, dogs, and everything in between, Jenna is thrilled to celebrate this exciting weekend with her.
Groomsman
With a 10 year age gap growing up, Conner was always trying to keep up with his older brother Tyler. Tyler tried to be a strong role model for Conner in their early years, but these days their roles have evolved. Whether they're battling it out on the golf course or cracking each other up between swings, Conner and Tyler still share that same competitive spark and contagious laughter that's been with them since childhood. Conner is proud to stand beside his brother as family.
Bridesmaid
Jenna couldn't believe when she first met Tyler that his youngest sister was also in the veterinary field! Jenna is thrilled to be gaining a new sister, and is so happy that she will be standing by Jenna and Tyler's side.
Groomsman
Patrick is Jenna's brother and the life of the party. He is always there to provide the newest movie reviews or sports stats. He's our own local celebrity, as a sport reporter on WRAL and has gotten Tyler and Jenna behind the scenes at local sporting events.
Groomsman
Justin is Jenna's youngest brother, but somehow he may be the wisest sibling. Justin and Tyler both enjoy trying a new bourbon, and bonded over their love of the War of 1812. Jenna took Tyler to Justin's wedding last year, introducing him to the entire family in one weekend. We can't wait to celebrate another wedding with Justin, hopefully this time with a little less pressure.
