BRIDAL PARTY
Kassandra Dodds - Maid of Honour
Kassie isn’t just the groom’s original boss — she’s been the big sister everyone needs and no one messes with. As the first-born daughter, she’s the perfect blend of grounded wisdom and effortless strength, with a heart as loyal as they come. Responsible and real, Kassie knows how to keep things together — but don’t be fooled, she’s also the life of the party when the music starts. We are lucky to have her by our side (and on the dance floor).
Liv Steel - Bridesmaid
Liv is the ultimate partner-in-crime — fully committed to backing Irena’s plans and decisions, no matter how delulu they may be. She’s been on a (so far unsuccessful) mission to get the bride into Pilates, but what she has accomplished is far more impressive: turning Irena into a full-blown bookworm. Together, they formed an exclusive two-person book club and have been undefeated in their reading goals — and their sass. With Liv around, there’s guaranteed laughter, loyalty, and probably a new book recommendation (or five).
Amelia McLachlan - Bridesmaid
Meet Amelia — your ultimate New York corporate girlie. She traded New Zealand’s shores for Manhattan’s skyline to thrives in the fast-paced world of Morgan Stanley. A true Pilates-and-latte kind of queen, she’s got that effortless city chic energy and brainpower to match. Whether she’s doing market strategies or curating her next weekend brunch spot, Amelia is the definition of grace, grit, and glow. Simply put she’s a total catch, and I am lucky to have her on my dream team.
GROOM'S PARTY
Angus McKenzie - Best Man
From chasing cars to repairing elevators (IYKYK), Angus has been there since day one. The stand-in boyfriend when Trent would rather hit the gym than sit through the Barbie movie or stroll through the French markets with Irena. He’s the one who never asked questions, just showed up — whether it was to cook the BBQ on Irena's bday, rescue a broken-down car, or get you out of a speeding ticket (said no one ever). Trent knows that no matter how big or small the task, Angus will always have his back — with a toolkit, a protein shake, and a wildly unnecessary side mission. He’s the King of the Motorway, lord of the side quests, and an all-round legend who defines what it means to be a best mate.
Onkar Saini - Groomsman
Cold-blooded murder? No, Onkar didn’t see a thing. The perfect alibi. A brother born not of blood, but of loyalty — the kind that runs deeper than DNA. Onkar has been by Trent’s side through the thick, the thin, and the legally questionable. He’s also the reason Irena and Trent reunited after years apart — because it was at his house party where sparks (and possibly vodka) flew again. So technically, if this wedding goes down in history as the best ever... Onkar deserves at least 12% of the credit. And if anything ever goes down again? Well, you already know — he didn’t see a thing.
Brad Cadzow - Groomsman
Dumb and Dumber — but in the most loyal, hilarious, ride-or-die kind of way. No one actually knows whose idea it was, but if it’s questionable, competitive, or involves a sprint to prove a point, chances are it was Brad and Trent — together. A bromance built off racing each other in everything. The kind of friendship where logic takes a back seat, but fun rides shotgun. If you see these two deep in discussion, just know — someone’s about to do something they probably shouldn’t... but will absolutely laugh about later.
Curtis Dodds - Groomsman
A brother from another mother… oh wait — no, that’s the other brother. Curtis is the guy who taught Trent how to be brave — mostly by standing close enough that Trent knew if he failed, Curtis would either help fix it or at least distract everyone while Trent escaped. A true brother with a heart of gold and the ability to make any situation 10% more chaotic and 100% more fun. And while Andrew Tate may have his brother Tristan… Trent’s got Curtis — less sportscars, more mischief, and a much better Spotify playlist.
