Most Important People
Laura Segura
Chris' Best Woman
Laura has been Chris' best friend for over 20 years. She's been there for him through everything he's experienced in life as a confidant, a rock, and a comedienne. Chris and Laura are inseparable as friends and Chris can't imagine having his special day without Laura as his Best Woman.
Loren Hansen
Joe's Best Women
Loren is one of Joe's most true loyal friends and is his favorite little mole hole. She was his first roommate, and the minute he first laid eyes on her Lucille Ball red hair, porcelain white skin, and tattoo covered body, his life changed for the better. Joe missed Loren like a man misses his remote control when she moved to Canada, but when she returned seven years later, the two of them became even closer than they'd ever been. Loren has always had Joe's back and has never wavered in her acceptance for who Joe is as a person. Joe is humbled to have this spirit lifting, inspirational, quirky artist of a friend as his Best Maid of Honor when he marries the love of his life, Britney Spears...er...um....Chris. Loren has truly left a snail trail on Joe's heart.
Eric Guerin
Chris' Groomsman
Eric is stunned that someone with as much Star Trek knowledge as Chris can actually find and keep a man. Of Eric, Chris can only say this: “I have been, and always will be, your friend. Our Star Trek bromance has gone on for more than 15 years and I am honored to have you as my groomsman.” When asked if he'd be in Chris and Joe's wedding, Eric responded: “Make it so!”
Heather Harper
Joe's GroomsWomen
Heather and Joe met after locking themselves in a bathroom for four hours talking at a party. The other guests were less than thrilled but Joe and Heather became best of friends. Whenever Joe needs advice or a pick-me-up in times of need, Heather has always been a confidant. Joe has seen Heather through many a hair style change and the two of them get closer with every U-Haul bill. Joe can always count on the fact that if he is craving some good wine and great conversation, Heather will be there to deliver.
Mary Kren
Chris' Mother
Chris' mother is not only a rock for the entire family, but has been Chris' personal rock and motivation over the years. She taught him to be a hard worker and to deal with whatever life throws his way. His mother has always made Chris feel special and loved and has always given positive reinforcement for everything he's done. That nurturing environment gave Chris the confidence and self esteem he needed to ask a man six years his junior to be his husband. She is also his inspiration to be a better cook.
Kathy Sharp
Joe's Mother
Joe's mother is one of the strongest people he knows. She can leap a tall building in a single bound and make you tell the truth even without a magic lasso. She has always been an inspiration for Joe as she instilled the values of being a hard worker and a kind human being. Joe's favorite quote from his mom is: “Life can be so simple if you do the right thing”. She's humble, smart, has one of the biggest hearts you'll ever find, and would do anything for anyone. Joe has yet to meet another person who can make macaroni like his mom.
David Kren
Chris' Father
Chris' dad has always been there for him and has supported him with whatever life threw at Chris. The first time Chris really truly comprehended the depth of his dad's love, understanding, and acceptance was when his parents took out a parent ad in the back of his senior yearbook that said: “Remember, whatever you do or wherever you are, we will always be there for you.” Chris' dad has always been his inspiration to be a better partner in life.
