A trained vocalist and performer, Kate is finishing up her licensing requirements to be able to teach music in her now home state of Connecticut. To quote Ingrid "I don't know anyone as dedicated to anything as my sister. She gets what she wants and owns it." Kate has been very involved in this wedding and the brides thank her.

(he/him) Sam is the wedding officiant, as well as Kate Henriques' partner. A big fan of Subaru and VR racing, Sam makes up a part of the "quad" (Ingrid, Emily, Kate, Sam), and a vital part at that.

It’s only fitting that he joins the brides as they begin the next chapter of their lives together.

(he/him) Curtis is another of Emily’s best friends. The two have the kind of friendship that is quiet and comforting. They love to watch movies and get pho together. Curtis is a hardworking engineer who frequently travels for work. He, along with his partner Seyla, often discuss art and animation with both Ingrid and Emily.

Together with Max, the trio have gotten up to many shenanigans, including Emily’s first time at a Bass Pro Shop and a fateful trip to Denny’s. Chaotic as they may be, every get-together is an adventure that is sure to be talked about for years to come.
