Zoë is Max's sister but more importantly, Emma's best friend. When she is not caring for little humans at BOPN, she is caring for big humans by letting them go shopping in her closet. Since moving to Boston she has slowly developed a BAHstan accent, you too can hear it if you listen closely. Emma pinches herself whenever Zoë calls and she gets to hear that accent.
Kelly - Bridesmaid
Emma's closest friend in Florida, Kelly, is her kindred spirit and partner in theatrical crime.*aggressive finger snaps* Their friendship ignited during the production of The Graduate, where they discovered a mutual passion for all things theater. Their bond is a harmonious duet, a dynamic dance of shared creativity and endless gossip.
Victoria - Bridesmaid
Victoria is Emma’s childhood best friend. Their bond was sealed on the many bus rides to competitions for Speech and Debate - yes, they were absolutely the coolest kids in school. When Victoria wasn’t dazzling audiences as Little Bo Peep on weekends, she was devoted to all things dance, sparkly, and pink. Without Victoria, Emma's life would be like a cupcake without frosting—still sweet, but missing that extra sparkle.
Reagan - Junior Bridesmaid
Reagan is Emma's precocious sister, a with the grace of a kawaii unicorn. She's so talented at art, Picasso himself would wish he had her skills, and her intelligence is off the charts, researchers cannot even measure it. Ever since she was a baby, people have mistaken Emma for Reagan's mom, thanks to their resemblance in both looks and personality. To Emma, that's the highest compliment—being Reagan's doppelgänger in every fabulous, creative, and compassionate way.
Ben - Groomsman
Ben is the premier maritime man of Massachusetts. Be cautious around him; given he is currently studying for his law degree, he will soon have the capacity to sue you and win. When he isn't studying, you'll find him hanging out with Zoë at folk festivals, visiting family in Rhode Island, or gaming with Max. He'll never slow-res you if defib is up, he needs that XP!
Preston - Junior Groomsman
What Preston lacks in age, he more than makes up for in experience. Only just barely in his young adulthood, he has already worn enough hats to fill 10 wardrobes. On any given day, you'll find Preston could be a politician, a football player, a dancer, a Lego engineer, and so much more. He is at once an entertainer, an athlete, a gamer, and a perhaps even a future president.
David - Best Man
David is Max's high school best friend. Nary a day went by in Max's formative years without David's presence, and he is better for it. Ambitious, wild, and free, David is not one to be held down or boxed in. Do not try to capture his essence; David is a quantum particle in a one-dimensional world.
Collin - Groomsman
Collin leads by example, bouldering his way up in a world that's rated an 11, but for him, feels like a 4. Without Collin's intervention, it is unlikely that Max would have met Emma or even performed in college a cappella in the first place. In that way, he is the linchpin that we have to thank for this event.
Henry - Groomsman
Henry, Max, and Emma all met pretty much at once - and through their mutual love of performance. Henry double-dipped in theater and a cappella; now that he is a master conductor, he is able to manipulate both Max and Emma into being his friends and loyal followers.
Justin - Groomsman
Justin, while reserved, is likely the most intelligent person at the wedding. His thoughts are often on a separate plane from our own simplistic understanding, and his knowledge is vast and varied. Justin has attended two of Max's birthdays in a row, making him the coolest dude.
Simon - Groomsman
Simon is like a more adventurous, more handsome, and more smarter version of Max. They met through their mutual acquaintance, Molly Fedarko, who is Max's father's sister. That would make them cousins, I suppose, but you'll rarely hear them admit it.
Wilson - Groomsman
Wilson is an enigma, at once stoic as a stone, and carefree as a butterfly. Who was before a little angel of a cherub is growing up to be a strong, independent man of high status. Wilson is Simon's brother, borne of Molly, son of Aaron.
Griffin - Groomsman
Griffin's sharp wit and dashing smile will be difficult to ignore throughout the procession - try your best not to stare. While his presence is a gift to us all, we like to think that he wants us to simply enjoy the event and not focus on him too much. You are likely to be an employee of his in the near future. He is also Molly's son; not as in Simon and Wilson's Molly, but as in Griffin's own personal Molly.
