Meet Ilan & Casimir- bearers of rings

Meet Ilan. ring bearer. curly-haired 8 year old son of best man matt. has stated that he "mostly likes sitting around". this is, obviously, a clever ruse to insure maximum surprise and effect when he struts into pete's candy store in his custom designed vest and tie. an energetic and strong-willed lad destined to give jude law a run for his money in the looks department, he has been known to break a bone and not let on. for days. you wish you were that tough, but you're not. 

Meet Casimir.  ring bearer. winner of The Longest Eyelashes on Planet Earth contest six years running. cas is an often quiet, reserved gentleman who has written his uncle chris' most favorite ever book about the devil. when not giving the impression that he may likely grow up to paint beautiful pictures while simultaneously penning extraordinarily thoughtful poetry, he is running around like a monkey with his older brother Ilan and younger sister zara.

went through about 40 photos from the party trying to find one of Brad, our wedding photographer, but his is obscured in every photo. somehow i doubt this is a coincidence

meet matt

meet matt. best man. chris' big brother. as if being a harvard graduate could not possibly have been enough, he is also an expert banjo/guitar player, a master sailor, a highly awarded IBM employee, and a baker of delicious holiday pies. suprising that he didn't build the massachusetts house he lives in with his cool wife and three genius children.

meet lamar

meet lamar. groomsman. little brother of sarah, though not in size. lover of sports, organization, and monogamy. prone to bombastic and hilarious acts of physical comedy. always the first to organize drinking games, he prefers the embarrassing performance oriented sort. also a fan of the friendly good-to-see-ya-back-pat. so beware. his hands weigh, like, 80 lbs or something.

meet jeff

meet jeff. groomsman. little brother of sarah. not on facebook or myspace and thus a man of mystery. also has mysterious job for a financial company which he mysteriously did not lose during the financial crash. the type of guy that looks good in sunglasses. organizes elaborate (possibly dangerous) pranks but is never ever caught. the kind of guy you'd want to be class president.

UPDATE!- photos have been procured! And I swear to god the sunglass thing was a coincidence.

meet matt

meet matt. aka beastman. aka redwood. groomsman. the only one you know who's been invited to cannes to pick up a shiny trophy. chris' former ad partner back in the nyc days. now found pool-sharking/surfing/shenanigans-ing around the bay area. enjoys shooting nazi zombies with his xbox, shooting french landscapes with his camera, and shooting shots with his mouth.

meet tim

meet tim. groomsman. collegiate associate of chris. will talk about metal anytime, anyplace, at any length, with a love and respect that most people reserve for grandparents who were in the war. he will also talk about the bikes that he's built, the things he's designed, or why something ISN'T metal. when not exploring south america or vomiting all over california's beautiful pacific coast highway, he's restoring a 68 VW beetle in his homestate of pennsylvania.

meet spencer

meet spencer. groomsman. former river guide, chris' current ad partner in sf. the only one you know who was in that movie "Mr. Holland's Opus". formerly of the pacific northwest. energetically slapstick. has invented more dance manuevers than he owns blue shirts- and he only wears blue shirts. enjoys finding humor in the small things. small things include include shark attacks, golden retrievers, airplane crashes, and cats.
