The Par-Tay!
Lauren has known Dana since their days in Brownies. She couldn't imagine another person standing with her on her wedding day.
Bill is Nick's brother-in-law. He is married to Nick's sister, Jessica and is the father of Junior Bridesmaid, Jacike, Junior Groomsmen, Billy and Flower Girl, Bella. He is the strong silent type and is proud to stand at Nick's side on the day of his wedding, just as Nick stood at his side (through the flu) the day he married Jessica.
Jessica is Nick's older sister. Lauren can't believe after all this time as an only child, she now has 2 sisters and a brother in law.
Dom is Nick's cousin and a Pittsburgh Steeler's freak. He's a little on the shy side. Everyone has to help Lauren drag him to the dance floor (just once) to dance with his designated bridesmaid, Dana. HELP!
Ginny is Nick's other older sister. He says she liked to bother him when he was little. She claims he was just as annoying. Lauren doesn't care and is happy to have Ginny as a sister.
Frank (aka Chesko, aka Ann-Fresko, aka Frankie) is Nick's cousin. He loves to dance and eat. This event will be to prepare him for his senior prom, later that year. Ladies love Ann-Fresko!
Nicole is Nick's cousin and may as well be another sister. Lauren is happy to find a person in Nick's family who likes coutry music as much as she does (to ensure it gets played at the reception)!
Sean is Lauren's friend from college and is her official "Man of Hononr" Sean is Lauren's musical buddy and Lauren can't imagine her wedding day without Sean by her side. Plus he's perfect to pair with bridesmaid Nicole Lucko, since they're both tree-tops tall!
Jackie is Nick's niece and daughter of bridesmaid Jessica. She will be 10 years old at the time of the wedding. Jackie is the most amazingly flexible gymnast Lauren has ever met. Ask her to do a flip at the wedding!
Billy is Nick's nephew and is birdesmaid Jessica's son. He will be 8 at the time of the wedding. Billy loves his sports and is an aspiring hockey goalie.
Bella is Nick's niece and daughter of bridesmaid Jessica. She will be 5 years old at the time of the wedding. When Lauren asked her to be the flower girl she asked if she could wear a "pink sparkly dress." Lauren told her the dress had to be white. Bella said that was ok as long as it was "sparkly." Bella often calles Lauren "Gary" after the snail in the children's show "SpongeBob SquarePants," becasuse Lauren can "meow." She also calles Nick "Patrick" after SpongeBob's best friend. Bella always has "Gary" visit "Patrick" and stay at his house "forever." Gary is fine with this.
Ethan is Lauren's unofficial nephew. His mother, Tracy, is Lauren's first cousin and is her first born. Ethan will be almost 7 at the time of the wedding. Lauren remembers attending a wedding with her cousin and her family a few years ago. Ethan insisted on dancing in front of the strobe light the entire time. He also loved having Lauren chase him around the reception. He will certainly serve as entertainment at the reception.
