Wedding Party
Janice Smith
Mother of the Bride
Does this woman even need an introduction? This is her second wedding she's putting on in 3 years...let's have a round of applause! LOL Mom is the most amazing woman in Bri's life...and it's a good thing too, because she's already turning into her. Her and Bri will be best friends forever, and it has been such a joy to plan this day with her by her side. Glad you got out all the practice on Amy's wedding!!
Brian Smith
Father of the Bride
This is his 2nd wedding in 3 years also, and his 2nd wedding in 3 years that he doesn't know how much he's spending! Get this guy a drink! In all seriousness, this man has been nothing but the best role model and father Bri could have ever imagined. With her through thick and thin, Bri is so excited to walk down the aisle with her Daddy.
Vicki Marshall
Mother of the Groom
Well, about a year ago, they adopted Will as their son—I’m not sure how that affects our inheritance, but I am sure it means that these are two of the best people Willy's ever known. Without them, he really wouldn’t be where he is today—for better or worse.
George Marshall
Father of the Groom
Well, about a year ago, they adopted Will as their son—I’m not sure how that affects our inheritance, but I am sure it means that these are two of the best people Willy's ever known. Without them, he really wouldn’t be where he is today—for better or worse.
Marie Benesh
Matron of Honor
When Marie and Bri were 5 years old, they attended St. Finbar in Burbank. On the first day of Kindergarten, They said they would be Best Friends! Her and her husband, Ben, spent a YEAR working on the surprise proposal in Ireland for Bri, and even flew there with William to do it! It only seems fitting that she stand next to Bri on her big day!
Ben Benesh
Best Man
What can be said about Benjamin that hasn’t been said already… First, he brews beer. Second, he’s one heck of a good guy. Having spent a year helping to plan the proposal 6,000 miles away in Ireland, his attention to detail and ability to plan things while drinking are a testament to his unwavering commitment to friendship and alcohol.
Amy Boling
Bridesmaid
Remember how Amy and Bri always fought growing up? They do too! Now they're closer than ever! I guess distance (and a nephew) does make the heart grow fonder? :) Amy is one of Bri's best supporters now, and Bri wouldn't have this any other way!
Angelo Pagan
Groomsman
About the best brother-in-law a guy could ask for. In the years William has known him, Angelo has always been there for him. His guidance, advice and friendship are the things that simply make life better.
Maja Nuoffer
Bridesmaid
Maja and Bri met at Notre Dame High School in a computer class. Since Maja was inept at anything computer, her and Bri quickly became friends, and have been incredibly close ever since! Thanks for always being our "mom" and I do you love!
Dave Crammond
Groomsman
David is both a potential Brexit survivor as well as an immigrant to the United States. Hailing from somewhere south of Manchester, England, David relocated to the United States in search of gold in Northern California. Having discovered he was about 130 years late for the Gold Rush, he relocated to Southern California where he founded the So Cal chapter of the Flat Earther Society and also met his future wife, Chloe. Once he looked back upon some photos of his flight over, he realized his mistake, gave up on his flat-earth beliefs and became both a software engineer as well as one heck of a great friend! We're very proud that he agreed to be a groomsman and we’re delighted to have him in our lives.
Madison McAleese
Bridesmaid
Maddy and Bri's families grew up very closely from the kids' days at Gymboree... Bri and Madison's brother, Andrew were inseparable for many many years! Then, after the Smith Family moved to Kentucky, Bri absorbed Maddy into her girl circle & now she'll stand with Bri on her big day!
Alex Porlier
Groomsman
Literally, the best pizza chef I know—and he’s also a great friend but I could go on and on and on about his pizza. Little known fact: William first—sort of—met Alex when he moved to Valencia, several years ago, while waiting in line for a rare beer release. They've been through some real interesting times together and he’s another person that Will doesn't think he would’ve made it here without. He's forever grateful to be able to call him friend!
Sofia Pagan
Flower Girl
Sofia, William's niece, cried when she met Bri...after about the first 8 months or so, she started bugging Willy about when he was going to propose! The first thing out of her mouth when she heard we were engaged was "I WILL BE YOUR FLOWERGIRL!" I guess it's settled, then!
Tanner Lee
Ring Bearer
The CUTEST kid East of the Mississippi, and of course he belongs to Amy Boling, Bri's Sister. His first and only request for being the ring bearer? That he get to walk down the aisle on a horse. We'll see about that one!
Nathan Sloan
Officiant
We chose Nathan to be our Officiant because he actually knew both of us before we knew each other! Bri met Nathan through the Matron of Honor, as part of a group we call the FamBam, and he is considered part of Bri's extended family now. Willy met Nathan when they worked on a reality show together, and have stayed in touch ever since. For us, he was the obvious choice to share in this special moment together!
