The Groom - Matthew Daly
Matthew is a fourth year electrical apprentice who will be testing for his journeyman's electrician's license in the summer of 2009. He is a master of the grill and especially talented at making pizzas. He enjoys fishing, yelling at the Red Sox, crying about the Bruins, and drinking during Patriots games. He is a naturally talented bowler, but he's not as good at pool as he thinks he is.
The Bride - Erin Sheehan
Erin works in software marketing, loves to travel, and is an obsessive wedding planner. She enjoys cooking, traveling, not cleaning, and arm-waving storytelling. She can catch more undersized fish than anyone she knows, sometimes with her bare hands. She is NOT allowed to bring any more birds home.
The Officiant - Vivian Wexler-Blidner
Vivian "Viv" Wexler will be marrying the couple in a ceremony we all hope is legal. Viv is a director of JD Advising at Harvard Law. She and Erin met through a mutual love of grey parrots, which is as strange as it sounds. Viv enjoys short walks on the beach to Bob's. She WILL hug you. She makes unbelievable cocktail concoctions, and she is getting better at kayaking. But you should still bring a small bucket if planning to paddle with her.
Matron of Honor - Sarah (Daly) Call
Sarah is Matthew's younger sister and one of Erin's best friends. If not with her husband, Mike, and beautiful son, Aiden, she can usually be found scrapbooking with the girls or shopping with Erin. She makes sure Erin gets things done. Sarah is always a willing hostess, spontaneous travel companion, faithful confidant, and loyal friend.
Best Man - Charlie Fisher
Matthew's childhood friend, Charlie just received his BS in Mathmatics, so he's certifiably insane. Charlie also introduced Matthew and Erin, so he can be blamed for everything that followed. He and his wife-to-be, Erica, have four boys under the age of 10. In his spare time, Charlie is a rock star.
Groomsman - James Sheehan
James is the bride's younger brother. He is a science teacher at Methuen High School. He is a certified scuba diver, and yes, he has fed penguins. Animals and small children love him. He is a champion wrestler and current wrestling coach, although Erin can knock him over (he won't admit this). He loves animated movies, sports, drinking Jenga, and attempting to cause bodily harm to his sister.
Bridesmaid - Amber Fecho
Amber and Erin met online in 2004 - although that REALLY isn't something you should tell a border crossing guard. Amber lives with a crew of critters in Northwestern Ontario, so we're very grateful she'll be able to join us for the big day. Amber is an incredibly caring, supportive friend, who is always willing to help a person (or animal) in need.
Bridesmaid - Erica Soon-to-be-Fisher
Erica is Erin's friend and Charlie's fiancee, and the incredibly patient mother of four crazy boys. She has been implicated in numerous Sarah-Erin schemes, and is known for convincing people that 30 pounds of steak and two dozen lobsters really isn't excessive for a party of six people. Her positive, optimistic personality rubs off on everyone around her, and makes any event a better time.
Groomsman - Chris Brassard
"Brassard" is a longtime friend, voted the most likely to get Matthew into trouble. He is an avid hockey fan, and always up for watching a game. Brassard is the life of the party, and definitely the person to call for a spontaneous day at the beach. He is a card carrying member of a jukebox kareoke team of two. We're pretty sure he owns stock in Don Julio.
Junior Bridesmaid - Mary Sheehan
Mary is Erin's cousin, daughter of Tim and Maura Sheehan. When Erin was in school, Maura actually trusted her to watch Mary, and thus a bond was born. Mary is known for her unwavering fashion sense and unbending will. She has known to be involved in juicebox shenanigans. She is a smart cookie, an extremely talented singer, an awesome big (and little) sister. She will probably be president of the United States at some point. Or at least dictator of a small country.
Flower Girl - Adeline Beamish
Adeline is the daughter of Erin's cousin, Michelle, and an absolute joy. When not practicing meditation, she enjoys playing with her younger brother, making things look "beautiful", and coloring. Her interests include mermaids.
Flower Girl - Eliza Call
Eliza is Sarah's niece and an experienced flower girl. She is a budding fashionista who is also extremely ticklish. She makes awesome smores. She is a loving cousin, daughter, and little sister who is never without a smile on her face.
Ring Bearer - Seth Fisher
Seth Matthew Fisher is Charlie and Erica's second oldest son, and the official ring bearer for the ceremony. His interests include Star Wars, Star Wars video games, camping, and dinosaurs. His favorite color is pink. He is responsible for nicknaming Matthew "Hot Pants", and has declared that after the wedding, Erin will be known as "Mrs. Hot Pants".
