Lucy & Thomas J
Wedding Party
Dr. Ellie Evans
Maid of Honor
Ellie and Lucy first crossed paths at Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry where they both studied medicine. They were in the same communication skills group but barely exchanged a word until a rotation at Whipps Cross Hospital threw them together. From there, they became inseparable partners in crime, sharing countless adventures and wild stories (most of which are way too outrageous for this PG wedding website). Ellie is now a palliative care doctor in London and often hops across the pond to Florida, blending her British charm with American flair.
Olle Mjengwa
Best Man
Olle, Olle, Olle! The best man. Olle and Tommy met on the first day of university, which was an unforgettable encounter as he was returning from the union...they became fast friends, sharing countless adventures and experiences, including several years of living together during their undergraduate degrees. From boozio cart to slap cup sessions, their home quickly turned into the ultimate pre drinks place. Olle and Tommy have always shared deep meaningful conversations (DMCs), discussing anything and everything under the sun. Even though Olle now resides in Sweden, living his best life, the physical distance has never put a damper on their incredible friendship.
Helena Dale
Bridesmaid
Helena is Lucys closest sister in age, and they're practically twins in everything but looks. People often mix them up on the phone because of their identical voice. They've shared countless memories and many mischievous moments (which the rest of the Dale clan will gladly testify) Helena is a lawyer in Manchester and will undoubtedly bring her lively spirit to the party. Get ready for some legal fun (#3rd floor rave)
Brady Poskin
Groomsman
Brady is Tommys older (but not oldest) brother. Fun fact! - when Tommy visited Brady in London during his first year of university, he confided about a girl he liked (Lucy). After showing him a picture, Brady wisely remarked, "A girl like that doesn't stay single for long," and gave Tommy the courage needed to ask Lucy out on a date when he returned to St. Andrews. We are incredibly grateful to have him by Tommys side during the wedding!
Milly Dale
Bridesmaid
Milly is the third oldest of the Dale siblings. Despite her youth, she's undoubtedly the most mature among us and regularly puts the rest of us to shame. Milly is gearing up for her university adventure this September, so by the time you meet her, she’ll be well into the swing of her academic career!
Jamie Poskin
Groomsman
Jamie is Tommys oldest brother. Known for his competitive spirit, Jamie is definitely the most inventive among the Poskin siblings, always eager to create new games that bring excitement and laughter to family gatherings. That being said, Jamie's ability to balance his competitive edge with kindness is admirable, and it’s one of the many reasons Tommy looks up to him. Jamie lives in California, where he is a dedicated and loving father to his four wonderful children.
Tabitha Dale
Bridesmaid
Tabitha, aka Taba, Tab, or Tad (don’t worry, you'll get the hang of our sibling age hierarchy after a few reads), is the fourth in line and the tallest of us all—so she'll definitely have the best view at the wedding. Taba has always been the kind and gentle soul of the bunch. She's about to start her final year of school and will be diving into university applications this September.
Becky Poskin
Groomswoman
Becky is Tommys one and only sister and will be his one and only 'groomswoman'. During Tommys second year at university, she visited, and they embarked on a memorable trip they called "skyIreland," (traveling through the Highlands and Ireland). Becky has just recently moved to New Hampshire after spending the past couple of years in Kansas City. Her kind heart and spirit is something that doesn't come around very often, and she will no doubt help make the day super special.
Isabella Dale
Bridesmaid
Izzy is our resident rogue, and is always up to something amusing. Fun fact: when she was younger she dreamed of becoming a sumo wrestler! Izzy is about to become a big girl and join the 6th form college at her school. While she’s swapped wrestling dreams for more grown-up aspirations, she’ll still be the source of comedic gold on the big day.
Sid Morris
Groomsman
Tommy met Sid at the beginning of his PhD and this was truly a blessing of blessings. Their friendship began on the ultimate frisbee pitch, where they played together for four years. Sid is Tommys favourite person to play with; they're always on the same wavelength. Sid and Tommy would also be found regularly climbing the St. Andrews castle (don't tell security!). Sid studied Maths and is currently working in London as a data engineer, he will no doubt be tearing up the dancefloor on the wedding day!
William Dale
Bridesman
At just 10 years old, William is the youngest of the Dale siblings, of course, the sisters favourite! He loves playing football (soccer for the Americans) specifically as a goalkeeper. So, if you see him eyeing the wedding cake like it’s a goal, don’t worry—he’s just practicing his saving skills!
William Denman
Groomsman
Speith, sometimes known by his real name William, was one of the first people Tommy met at St. Andrews. Over the course of five years, they shared numerous classes, bonding over their mutual degree of chemistry and countless memories. Their friendship was further strengthened by their love for sports, particularly the KC Chiefs and Royals—an enthusiasm that led Tommy to convert William into a loyal fan after the 2016 World Series win. Now based in Edinburgh, William frequently visits St Andrews to play golf with tommy - we're excited to have him celebrate this special day!
Annabel Newton
Bridesmaid
Annie, Lucy’s cousin, spent most of her life down south but came back up north to study history and politics at Manchester University and then pursued a career in the law. She and Lucy have shared countless memories, with some of the best ones from their Majorca days, where they’d spend hours playing with pet rocks (yes, you read that right—pet rocks)
Tobias Cole
Groomsman
Tobias is truly one of the coolest guys we know. Tommy and Tobias became close friends at St. Andrews, where they started the tradition of playing darts every Tuesday at the Whey Pat pub. Tobias also played ultimate frisbee with Tommy, where they celebrated the victory of winning bronze together at nationals. Tobias is originally from California (can’t you tell by the hair?) but currently lives in New York. We love him so much!
Dennis Ling
Groomsman
Dennis (aka Mortus D Tortus lol) is the anime-loving, apex-playing, frisbee club enthusiast Tommy met during the second year of his PhD. Their friendship blossomed quickly, sparked by their shared interest in Japanese anime. In fact, Tommy introduced Dennis to his favourite fictional story of silly stretchy pirates. They bonded over this mutual interest and discovered that their brains allow them to dive into conversations that bounce around a hundred topics, yet always make perfect sense. Dennis is from Hong Kong, and he recently graduated from St. Andrews this summer and wants to pursue a career in psychology!
