Mother of the Bride
Fondly known as Mimi-Chata, Michelle is the most beautiful soul around, and brings endless energy and optimism to the party. She was about as essential as you can get in this planning process, and actually found both our venue in Ireland and in Minneapolis. She saved the day by finding and touring our venue, and essentially planning the new wedding...6 weeks out. We owe her more love and gratitude for saving this day than we could ever repay.
Father of the Bride
Joe-Joe Dancer is going to be found tearing up the dance floor, as the name suggests. Signature moves include the shopping cart, sprinkler, and lawn mower. On an extra sweet note, he called us the day we got engaged and said "how do I make this your dream wedding?" He certainly didn't imagine that dream wedding would be cancelled six weeks out, but he has held firm on that commitment by supporting us in every way while we plan a new wedding.
Maid of Honor
Madison is more than just a sister, she is a best friend. She takes on challenges, like those of being a maid of honor, like a champion, and has been unwaveringly supportive during the tumult of a new wedding plan six weeks out from the date. You can catch her convincing everyone to "put their party pants on" and have another drink with her.
Officiant
The guy everyone knows and loves! He is the best little brother you could ask for, always there to lend a hand, shovel your driveway, or just sit with you if your are having a bad day. Equal parts self-deprecating, hilarious, and confident, he won't disappoint- you don't want to miss this.
Father of the Groom
Although his boys always give him a tough time, in reality, everyone acknowledges and appreciates the stellar example he has set for his family. Steve's steady hand and endless generosity are truly amazing. Now, its time for him to pack the Bengay, throw on a couple knee braces and show these "damn millennials" how its done on the dance floor. Whiskey and cigars will be waiting for us at the end of the night.
Mother of the Groom
Andrea has a Phd. in love, care and worry - and it has indeed paid off! Anyone who knows Andrea would agree that without her, there is absolutely no way in hell Griff could have convinced such a smart and beautiful woman to marry him. Her endless optimism and soft touch when times get tough are her superpowers. Plus, the lady likes to party!
Best Man
What an evolution here. From a childhood of pure hatred to a wedding day where Griff couldn't imagine having anyone else at his side. Nash and his Griff might look similar, but he operates with a level of caring and compassion that is unmatched. With all that said, Nash is terrible at golf, an even worse dancer and gets a little sassy after a seltzer...you've all been warned.
