Robert C.
Groomsman
Robert and Alex know each other through Martha's family, as Robert is Tina's partner. At first glance, you wouldn't guess that they are friends at all. They both have very different likes and dislikes. Yet, at family parties and gatherings, they always seem to get along, with some corny jokes here and there or just talking about the situation at hand. Not only that, but Alex knows that Robert is someone he can count on if he were ever in a bind. This was way before Robert became a cop, so it's not like he can now rely on Robert just because he is a cop, but because he is a genuine, nice and caring person who is always more than willing to help someone in need.

Anthony W.
Groomsman
Anthony and Alex also met through Martha's family. Anthony is Martha's nephew. At first, Alex could not figure out Anthony; to him, he was just some kid who would always play video games from night until the morning and yell at the top of his lungs. They didn't speak much when they first met, so there wasn't much to talk about. It wasn't until Martha's and Alex's baby shower for their first-born, Grayson. This was the day that everything changed. Anthony was the bartender at the baby shower, and let's just say he broke one of biggies rule and got high off his own supply. As Alex was saying goodbye to his friends, Anthony, even though he was a bit out of it, claimed that he loved each and every one of them. This was the first time Anthony had shown any type of emotion towards Alex, so it meant a lot to him. This was then proven even more as the years went by, as Anthony was always there to help both Alex and Martha, from helping them move to even helping with watching their kids. Three fun facts about Anthony: 1. Family oriented 2. He enjoys boogie boarding (especially in Maui). 3. Eats Raisin Bran for breakfast every morning.
