Best Man
Zac has spent innumerable hours in the Bonofiglio household basement. He and Jake have been YMCA basketball teammates, conspiring mischief makers, and each others wing men for quite some time. Despite being a worse basketball player, Jake is a humble man who never let that get in the way of their friendship.
Maid of Honor
A Googler, amazing artist, and make up extraordinaire, Vicki (Victoria) was emo when she met Amanda in 6th grade math. The rest is a history best told over drinks!
Groomsman
Josh is a creative genius, a terrible driver, and a loyal adventure companion, whether it be a concert or a spontaneous road trip. Nothing amps up Zac quite like screaming the song “Bullet” by Steel Train with Josh riding shotgun in the car.
Bridesmaid
Basically an IMB exec that loves pigeons and is strangely good at odd sports, Emily is also getting her masters at NYU. She sat next to Amanda at American Express and soon realized resisting friendship was futile.
Groomsman
Taha is a world-class social worker for Denver Public Schools. Zac was assigned as Taha’s random roommate during their freshman year at Loyola (along with groomsmen Joe), where they honed their Super Smash Bros. skills. (Zac is Donkey Kong, Taha Luigi (Groomsmen Joe is a Kirby)).
Bridesmaid
A super smart conservation expert, Niki got her masters in Marine biology in Guam, scuba dives, and has an insanely adorable vocabulary (eg: totes adorbs). A high school soccer team original (OG).
Groomsman
Dr. (!!!!) Joe will begin his first year of residency at the University of Chicago Medical Center. He was also randomly assigned to Zac and Taha’s room at Loyola. If you see Joe, ask him about the wrong turn he took on a jetski on vacation with the gang in Michigan.
Bridesmaid
A 3rd grade teacher in Harlem and pop culture authority, Ally is the life of any party (and probably brought the tequila). She is soon to be Amanda's new (and first!) sister.
Groomsman
PJ is Zac’s Fortnite coach. Oh, and Amanda’s brother. While Zac and PJ go all the way back to St. Mary’s Youth Group, they’ve gotten closer since PJ has moved to New York. You can count on him to rally the party. pour the shots, and be there for a heart-to-heart.
Bridesmaid
A stylish homeowner and new mother, Emily also manages to care daily for others at the Board of Developmental Disabilities. She was the first of the high school soccer team originals to get married and has been Amanda's wedding Guru.
Groomsman
Nick, Amanda’s youngest brother, is a sophomore studying sports management at Ohio University in sunny Athens, Ohio. He is the only member of the family and bridal party to start their own business, where he is a caregiver for children and young adults with disabilities. Zac and Nick share a deep love for Twitter and Shea Serrano.
Bridesmaid
An interventionist working with families in New York and a Boston Marathon runner, Hannah somehow manages to also be getting her masters at Columbia. Originally Zac's friend, Amanda poached her upon moving to NYC.
Groomsman
Chris met Zac in their junior year of college, when they (along with groomsmen Taha) got a scholarship to study abroad in Rome and Beijing. They spent their senior year as roommates and are now reunited back in New York. Zac has always been pretty sure that Chris will probably be Secretary of State someday.
Groomsman
Jake and Zac took nearly every class together in high school, on their way to leading the school paper and winning the high school dodgeball championship. It’s fair to say that Zac would have failed Latin had Jake not been in the class.
Groomsman
Kyle is working on a master's degree in architecture from Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design. Kyle founded and led the Euclid Entourage, the premier high school student section (still today!) in Central Ohio. While Zac and Kyle were friends in high school, they grew closer during the 3 years they spent together in New York before Kyle left for Cambridge.
Groomsman/Altar Server
Angelo is a talented theologian in graduate studies at Boston College. They’ve been fro-workers (friend + coworker) both at Loyola and America Media, and have progressed to just friends now that Angelo has moved to Massachusetts. Angelo took Zac and Amanda’s engagement photos---check them out!
Groomsman
Alec is Zac’s cousin and a sergeant in the United States Marine Corps. Alec is still always trying to get Zac to wrestle him, because he knows Zac folds like a pretzel. He taught Zac to drive stick on the way to Chicago, where Zac taught him to do a cartwheel in the street.
Groomsman
For fans of the show New Girl, Jacob is the Schmidt to Zac’s Nick. They met upon moving to New York City, where groomsmen Kyle connected them, as they were both in need of roommates. A talented designer and architect, Jacob adds a thoughtful and tasteful touch to both interior spaces and friendships.
Flower Girl
Zac's zany and sociable sister.
Flower Girl
Amanda's adorable Goddaughter
