Shannon and Lisa met in college when Lisa pledged Shannon's sorority, Theta Phi Alpha. They soon realized that they were meant to be in each other's lives. They were quickly dubbed partners in crime and each other's "other half." Little did they both know, they would become closer than they ever realized! Shannon introduced Lisa to her brother, Josh, who a few years later asked her to marry him. In June 2018, Shannon and Lisa will officially be sisters (in-law)!!!

Yogi and Mark have been friends for over 15 years. They met through the theatre productions at Paramus Catholic, and quickly bonded over their nerdy passions. From wasting time at the Mall, playing Magic: The Gathering, Ren Faire , and many other adventures, Yogi and Mark became great friends and that adventure continues today. It has been said that rubbing his belly brings luck for the bride and groom.

Dave and Mark met as pledge brothers of Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity at FDU. They have been on many adventures and during their senior year they were roommates.His love for cats is topped only by his huge heart.

Shannon and Chrissy go way back to freshman year of high school playing field hockey. They quickly became friends when they figured out that they were both goofballs. Together they annoyed the athletic trainer, figured out that apples cost 40 cents, and laughed when Shannon finally figured out that Chrissy's siblings are actually twins and are "like this" (insert funny finger motion which means they are the same in their language.) Shannon and Chrissy may never be in the same state at the same time very often, but their friendship certainly hasn't faltered because of it.

Sam and Shannon first met in college when Sam joined Shannon's sorority, Theta Phi Alpha. That isn't all that Sam joined. Sam also became a member of Shannon's family line when Shannon and Sam became Big and Little. Their bond is everlasting. Through ups and downs in life, Shannon and Sam have always been there for each other. After all, Sam is Shannon's Little One and forever will be!

Mark has known Bob for what seems like forever. They met at Woodrow Wilson Middle School and bonded quickly over their love of the New Jersey Devils. Sports continues to be a huge bond for them despite Bob's love for an unfortunate team from Atlanta.

To make their relationship less confusing to others, Shannon (the Bride) is called Little Shannon and Shannon (the Bridesmaid) is called Big Shannon. Big Shannon and Little Shannon first met at Piercing Pagoda when Big Shannon was technically her boss. Big Shannon was not fond of the idea that another Shannon was going to work there because she feared that Little Shannon would not be as cool as her. However, she was greatly mistaken. Both Shannons knew that their friendship extended way beyond co-workers and that their friendship would last forever. Big Shannon and Little Shannon may be different ages and may be at different stages in life, but they both know their friendship will never change.

Steve has been a part of the crew since middle school, despite the fact that he went to a different one. Originally brought into the group as a friend of Bob's sister, he soon realized who the cooler people were and starting hanging out with us. Despite being younger, Mark has always acted as a Guardian Angel for Steve, whether in New Orleans or New York, This led to Steve naming Mark the Godfather to his first born son, something Mark is extremely proud of.

Shannon and Erin first met because of the wonderful man that Shannon is going to marry, Mark. Erin and Mark have known each other for years and she considers Mark to be her "big little brother". As soon as Shannon met Erin, it felt like they've known each other for years too! It was an instant friendship connection. It was actually because of Erin, her birthday, and a comedian that made Shannon and Mark realize that they needed to make their relationship "official" in the first place!

Better known as "Skank" since there can be only one Mark in the group. Skank is the groups resident Lawyer. He has yet to have to defend anyone in the group, but we are sure it is only a matter of time. He is a lover of beer and America. Together with Ray, the two Marks continue their famous Turducken Thanksgiving tradition.

Mark first met Ray while playing youth Basketball, though at the time they wouldn't know how close friends they would become. Whether playing marathon sessions of Call of Duty, watching football, or watching as many awful movies as possible, Ray's house has been the site of many misadventures of the crew.

Shannon first met Alex when Alex started working at their previous job, Dick's Sporting Goods. Their friendship quickly grew because they had similar yet crazy personalities. Alex even beat Mark to the punch when she "proposed" to Shannon in front of the Rutgers merchandise at work. Alex and Shannon's constant Snapchat conversations never disappoint in describing their hilarious friendship. The bond they have with each other is certainly unlike any other!
