Best Man - Kyle Bogossian
Chris & Kyle met in the womb! Kyle made his appearance an hour earlier than Chris on December 14th, 1993.

Kyle lives in Jacksonville FL, working as an interior designer with his boyfriend, Timmy.

Tim works as a construction project manager and lives in North Andover, MA with his girlfriend, Rachel.
Sam VanTassel - Bridemaid
Sam B & Sam V were roommates their freshman year at Endicott College (Fun fact: Sam & Chris were both at Endicott the same year but never knew each other).

Sam is now a Physician's Assistant at Northern Westchester Hospital and lives in Stamford, CT with her boyfriend Evan.
AJ Gotthelf - Groomsmen

She & Sam both share a deep love for hiking and spend most of their time together out in nature with their pups. Euphemia & Eric now live in Alaska with their two pups Trout and Oakleigh.
Geoff Walker - Groomsmen
After 'knowing of' each other since high school, Chris & Geoff grew an instant friendship just a few years ago. These two have a lot to laugh about - between golfing on the course and in their virtual reality goggles, seeing who can get the highest score in any game and picking on each other constantly, the smiling never stops. Geoff owns his own plumbing & heating company in Manchester and lives with his girlfriend, Hannah.
