Collette Martin - Matron of Honor
Collette is Danielle’s sister and confidant. She inherited the rhythm in the family and will be the first one on the dance floor. Collette also leads the family in skiing, recording the most on-snow days per season, even while she was living in NJ. She is the medical professional in the family, fielding late night calls about a hangnail, and she’ll be bandaging up anyone who overdoes it at the bar and finds the entryway stairs challenging.
Bill Breen - Best Man
Billy is Brendan’s brother, best friend, and best man. He has Brendan’s back without question and always shows him such generosity and support. The two of them are a deadly duo together and have so much fun enjoying the outdoors, joking in their own brand of humor, and being the life of the party. Seriously, Billy is without question the best person to hit a night on the town with. We're sure he has a 36-hour party itinerary worked up for this event he’d be happy to share with you. Billy also is joined by his wonderful partner Sam Pontius, who is the kindest person and adds so much to the family.
Hayli Poisson - Maid of Honor
Hayli is Danielle’s & Collette’s sister, technically cousin, but she’s in Danielle & Collette’s parents’ phones as Daughter #2, so the adoption is official. You can guess who daughter #1 is. This trio of Danielle, Collette & Hayli grew up chasing each other down the trails of Attitash and has always had each others backs.
Cameron Schofield - Groomsman
Cameron is one of Brendan’s best friends. He’s one of the most generous people you will ever meet and is as loyal of a friend as they come. We feel fortunate to have Cameron as a groomsman. His recent experience during a 4 hour impromptu stint as a bouncer at Club Royale highlight how spontaneous and fun Cam is to roll with and has earned him the title of enforcer at this event. Whether it’s keeping the dance floor full or the perimeter secure, his dedication to this mission’s success is undeniable and much appreciated.
Emily Breen - Bridesmaid
Emily is Danielle’s new sister-in-law, and Danielle can’t imagine getting married without all her sisters by her side. She is smart, funny and years beyond her age. This makes Emily the perfect person for Danielle to learn from for how to help the women’s team in charades and avoid the dreaded loser-slides on holidays.
James Higgins - Groomsman
James is a part of the venerable Higgins clan, VIP members at this wedding who have a deep relationship with Brendan and the rest of his family, celebrating holidays together and the like. James and Brendan met each other in Ms. Mosher’s first grade class, and grew a beautiful friendship full of fishing, skiing, and fun ever since. James even helped Brendan find his entrepreneurial passion at the age of 7, setting up a lemonade stand that sold yellow Gatorade. Outside of being a great friend, James is known by many for being a generator of good times, his hilarious antics, and masterful storytelling abilities.
Samantha Pontius - Bridesmaid
Sam is Danielle & Emily’s future sister-in-law! She is thoughtful, and seriously organized. Like tasteful graphically designed itineraries organized, which makes her the perfect person to help plan a bachelorette party. Sam can always be relied on for a fun time and makes family trips all the better. Her fiancé is Brendan's brother, Bill Breen, and together they will ensure everyone has a great night.
Mike Tougas - Groomsman
Mike Tougas is a dear friend of Brendan’s. They have created so many wonderful adventures and memories together, from fishing Duxbury Bay in a 9.4 ft dingy as teenagers and selling fish at the local market, to skiing, traveling, and so much more. Mike is a fellow house music aficionado, and a vital part of keeping Brendan up to date on the hottest new tracks. Mike is also attending pilot school, a killer DJ, and Denver resident who we’d love to have back in Boston, but know he’s in the right place.
Molly McGavick - Bridesmaid
Molly is one of Danielle’s closest friends. They attended Colby College together and have been friends since. Molly is always up for a fun time and constantly planning the next group outing. She is a wonderful hostess, a Trader Joe’s aficionado, and the kindest person you’ll meet.
Grady McCormick - Groomsman
Grady McCormick is one of Brendan's closest friends from URI, and largely who he can credit having a great college experience to. Grady has an unmatched ability to create fun. He often tells jokes that would get most people beat up, but delivers them in a way that instead fills the room with laughter like nobody else can. Grady is an expert fishermen and is likely the best surfcaster for stripers on the east coast.
Grady also is a lifetime Mainer, so if he comes up to you and starts talking about lobster traps or snowmobiles just smile and nod your head politely.
