Wedding Party

Chris Chacko
Chris Chacko - Best Man
Chris is Matt's older brother and right-hand man. If they're not already in the same room during a Bears game, you BEST believe they're texting about it. From guiding Matt through middle school football, all the way to helping him plan his perfect proposal, Chris has been a constant role model throughout Matt's life.
Annie Mannancheril
Annie Mannancheril - Maid Of Honor
Annie is Poppy's younger (soul) sister. The Lizzie to her Miranda, the Drake to her Josh, whatever you wanna call it - 700 miles has got NOTHING on them. Their sister fights have been known to last a total of 3 minutes before they make up and watch a Hannah Montana rerun. It's true, they really do finish each other's... sandwiches.
Ikjot Wahi
Ikjot Wahi - Groomsman
Ikjot is one of Matt's closest friends (of course they'll never tell each other that). Catch these two watching sports, going to Illenium concerts, or playing Catan all while debating who is better at [insert topic here].
Asha George
Asha George - Matron Of Honor
Asha is Poppy's older sister. When she's not out saving lives (we got a DOCTA in the HOUSE), she's running after her wild (and insanely cute) mini-me. If you ever run into her, ask her about her world famous Potato Noodle Soup recipe!
Michael Joseph
Michael Joseph - Groomsman
Mikey has been Matt and Chris' older brother and role model since the beginning. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree with this trio - sports, video games, and accounting. Are we sure they're not triplets?
Anju Patel
Anju Patel - Matron Of Honor
Anju is Poppy's oldest sister (and second mom). If Anju is "busy", chances are she's either jamming out to Taylor Swift or coming up with new side hustles... Hit her up for a custom bouquet or bracelet.
Robby Regan
Robby Regan - Groomsman
Robby and Matt renewed their friendship in the beginning of their sophomore year of high school after originally meeting in third grade. They have been very close friends ever since even though they have spent their adult lives in different states. QB1 in 2015 to groomsman in 2025.
Christina Kim
Christina Kim - Maid Of Honor
Christina and Anisha have been best friends and next door neighbors since 2nd grade. Next time you see them, ask them to perform their "Everytime We Touch" by Cascada music video.
Chris Youkhana
Chris Youkhana - Groomsman
Chris and Matt became close while members of Sigma Phi Epsilon. It all started as a competition to see who was the better hooper, and now a brotherhood has grown over the years. Now they spend their summers bugging Joe for golf tips that they won't end up using.
Dianna Hoffman
Dianna Hoffman - Bridesmaid
Dianna has been one of Poppy's best friends since high school. Even though one of them moved across the country (okay so she moved to Wisconsin but still...), they still find time for target runs, coffee runs, and lay-in-bed-watching-movies-all-day hangs.
Joe Dellanina
Joe Dellanina - Groomsman
Joe was one of the first people Matt met during college orientation. Rumor has it, Joe's a Packers fan... safe to say this rivalry (yes...it's still a rivalry) couldn't come between these two.
Saher Hajiyani
Saher Hajiyani - Bridesmaid
Saher has been a constant in Poppy's life since high school. From ACT Prep classes to UofI nights out to planning their weddings, they have been through it all together. If you see her at the wedding, ask her about her and Poppy's first (and definitely LAST) disast--- adventure on the CTA.
Matt Brandeis
Matt Brandeis - Groomsman
The two Matts are going on 14 years of close friendship. Summer days spent at Matt's house growing up were all the buzz for their friend group. Ask either of them to quote SpongeBob and they won't stop - literally.
Bea Chacko
Bea Chacko - Bridesmaid
Bea is Matt's sister-in-law and Poppy's soon to be sister-in-law. From day one, Bea has been a role-model and the perfect older sister. If you've been lucky enough to try her cooking, you know Chris has been BLESSED. Gordon Ramsay who?
Eric Dubose
Eric Dubose - Groomsman
Eric was Matt's first friend he met during freshman year summer football camp. 5AM carpools to practice in the summer played an integral part in the strong friendship that has continued to this day. Take a moment to ask him about real estate - the guy is gonna be a mogul.
Melissa Chacko
Melissa Chacko - Bridesmaid
Melissa is Matt's sister and Poppy's soon to be sister-in-law. Part time runner, part time raver, full time sweetheart. She's pretty much the coolest person we know. P.S...If you see her getting shots at the wedding, RUN.
Miles Kleinsmith
Miles Kleinsmith - Groomsman
Matt first met Miles prior to an Illenium concert circa 2019. Their friendship grew to what is is today through memorable nights out, board game nights and intellectual conversation. . For all your freight related needs, hit him or Ikjot up via IM Logistics - these guys can do it all.
Anuj Patel
Anuj Patel - Groomsman
Anuj is Poppy's brother-in-law and Matt's soon to be brother-in-law. One of the most down to earth and smart people Matt has had the pleasure of getting closer to. Catch him going bar for bar with anyone on any Quinn XCII song.
Jacob George
Jacob George - Groomsman
Jacob is Poppy's brother-in-law and Matt's soon to be brother-in-law. He is the life of the party in any situation that you drop him into. Jacob and Matt have bonded over their shared values of family, friends and (mediocre) sports fandoms.
