Whitney & Jacob
The Wedding Party
Emily Zink Rybacki
Matron of Honor
Emily is the co-star of Whitney's longest-running friendship and the best MOH that there has ever been. They roomed together at boarding school and talked about moments like this when they were just kids. After 17+ years of friendship, she's still the best!
Danielle Shinder
Bestest Mensch
Have you heard the one about Junior's, Whoopi Goldberg and Xanadu? The one that ended with an accident? Dani was there for it and she's been there for Jacob for almost 20 years. They do not have many pictures together.
Taylor Noble
Bridesmaid
Generally speaking, Taylor and Whitney look like this when they are together, which is to say, they have mildly enjoyed each other's company for the last 14+ years. Three-time roomies, former business partners, and Forever Friends.
Brett Kesselman
Groomsman
HUHHHH? What started while watching abhorrent ebaum's world videos in 2007 soon flourished into a lifelong friendship fraught with wigs, golf carts, petty squabbles, and long lost clips from The View. They've shared the stage and countless moments unseen by other human eyes.
Jill Butterfield
Bridesmaid
5 years ago, Jill and Whit became friends at an audition- a place that could have driven them apart, but not these two. From their love of food and drink to deep conversations late into the night, Jill and Whit share an taste for adventure and a curiosity that has brought them extremely close. <3
Joel Porter
Groomsman
Jacob and Joel (sometimes referred to as Joel and Jacob) have been forever linked since June 27th 1991. They've shared bowl cuts and Bravo recaps.
Barbara “Babs” Winfield
Mother of the Bride
It's Babs! She’s the one that taught Whitney about style and interior design, the one that saw every single show at least 3x, and the one whom Whitney calls to talk her to death. If you know her, you love her, and now she can adjust her tagline to read: "the best MOB the world has ever seen!"
Sheila Soroken Porter
Mother of the Groom
Former Gold's Gym model. Current at home gym enthusiast. Once showed up to an opening night dressed exactly the same as Jacob.
John Winfield
Father of the Bride
Heeeeere's Johnny! If you stay at the reception late enough, you might catch John “resting his eyes”... 8pm is a safe bet. 😉When he's not napping, he's most likely cuttin’ a rug or talking up his kids/grandkids to anyone who will listen, so beware!
Scott Porter
Father of the Groom
Not a former Gold's Gym model but an amazing Dad.
Leroy Winfield-Soroken-Porter
Best Son
The best son in the world
