Jess (often referred to as Jay) is my sister closest in age. She is my best friend and the person I trust most in this world (other than Dustin). She has a heart of gold and has always been my biggest fan and supporter. There is no one I would rather marry us, than her. Her favorite things include her dog Boo, coloring her hair, the awkward silence in elevators, comforters for her bed, and video games. Also, "Most Likely to Cry and Nervous Laugh."

Sister to the groom AND the bride. Jamie is one of my best friends and closest confidants, I am so lucky to inherit her as my sister even though she has been one to me for almost 6 years now. She is a role model to me and I look up to her in so many ways. Her favorite things include dreaming of her future farm, furry cows, and cheese boards. Also, "Most Likely to Show up Wearing Cow-girl Boots and Pop the First Bottle of Bubbly."

My youngest sister and assistant to Jax and Max. I can't wait to share this day with her that we have been planning all along. She has the sweetest old soul and there's no one more stylish than her. Her favorite things include her phone, her cat Ozzy, my 600-lb life, sweatpants, and not wearing a bra. Also, "Most Likely to be my Tik-Tok Creator on our big day."

Chelly is my oldest friend we have been friends since 1999 when we were neighbors. She knows every morsel of my being. I married her and her now husband and I can't wait to have her there with me on my big day. Her favorite things include country music, chocolate-covered fruits, iced coffee, and the movie Bridesmaids. Also, "Most Likely to Fall Asleep First" because she'll be welcoming her second babe 2 months before the wedding! I can't wait to celebrate with her!

Mckayla and I have also been friends for a long time, we were Fruit Experts together at Edible Arrangements, and I was weirdly her boss. We quit on the same day and have been boss babe warriors ever since. Mckayla can safely be called my biggest "Hype Girl" and I love her so much for that. Her favorite things include couponing, traveling every second she can, being sick, and making me take shots. Also, "Most Likely to Pop Bottles and Dance on the Table."

Maria is the reason Dustin and I met. Her husband Adam texted me Dustin's number, I texted Dustin, and it was game over after that. We have been friends through so many stages in our life it is so fun to continue our friendship and watch each other grow, I can't wait to share these memories. Her favorite things include Vampire Diaries, Coffee, and reminiscing about our breakfast dates before kids. Also, "Most Likely to Cry during the Ceremony."

“Unprecedented” is a diva word. Very dramatic. It has theater teacher energy. It wears a scarf in the summer with lensless black-rimmed glasses. In rare instances, though, a moment arises that recalibrates your expectations and gives veracity to the word. Stern transcending normative gender roles to take her place as a Groomsman is unprecedented. She’ll go deep into your frenemy’s Instagram and like a photo just to mess with their head. Once told me, “If no one comes from the future to stop you from doing it, how bad of a decision can it really be?” Changed my life.

The Red to my Andy Dufrane.  The Tweeder to my Mox. He has a jawline that could cut marble and a stare that could melt the coldest heart. When he leaves a room is there a better than likely chance he’s returning without clothes on? Maybe. But you’d have a better chance at keeping a tornado away from Moore, OK than you do keeping Trip away from this wedding.  He put on a suit the day after I proposed.  Baby blue.  Top hat and tails.  Walking stick and monocle at the ready.  Why? Because m’f-er likes to be prepared.  

He didn’t give me any guidance for his blurb. Didn’t need to. Andre the Giant doesn’t need to tell you he’s tall. You see him and know. The evidence is before you, plain as day. He summers at Everest Base Camp. Never goes to the top. Thinks it’s to boujee. If he wants a thrill, he goes the Dunkin’ in South Dorchester, orders a medium Frappuccino, asks if they take Apple Pay, and waits for the first person to ask if he thinks he’s better than him. Game on.

You want a man that wastes no time? Jeff Brown, baby. Zero to 60 in under one. The rocket is on the ground, you blink, and suddenly it’s on Uranus. Swaggers around Colorado in country couture chic. You might think he’s businessman, but he’s a business, man. Met Jay Leno once. Never let him speak. Only talked to him about early-era Garth Brooks. Made him listen to “Lonesome Dove”? Leno cried. Starts his day with a complete rendition of “Friend in Low Places” complete with the third verse (obviously).

Often called the 5th Beatle.  Spends his weekends chopping wood.  Enjoys lying down in the tall grass with his special lady to trace the shapes in the clouds as they go by. Spent his 20s traveling to every continent on the planet.  Asked him “why Antarctica” he looked me in the eye, didn’t blink for ten minutes, simply said “because it’s there." A man so virile that he might end up with a bakers dozen kids. Told me that on his deathbed he will reveal to the world that he was DB Cooper.
