They are all wonderful guys, and I'm so happy that each of them have agreed to be part of our wedding party!!!
Now, without further adieu:
Mike - Best Man
Mike & Aaron met when they were teenagers and bonded over their dorky ways, including discussing who would win between Batman and Superman, their love of video games, and their mutually crazy families! :) Mike and his now wife (newlyweds!) just had the most beautiful baby girl named Anna who has her daddy wrapped around her little finger already! Mike is like a cartoon character - full of charm and witty retorts to all of Aaron's jokes!
Cliff - Groomsman
Cliff and Aaron met in a roundabout kinda way... Aaron was dating a girl who was roommates with Cliff's girlfriend. Aaron and this girl eventually broke up, but remained friends with Cliff afterwards. Cliff has since married said girlfriend and had 2 adorable little boys with her, once of which is lucky enough to have Aaron as a godfather! :) Stacey and Cliff are the couple that Aaron looks up to because they fully support each other and have been great friends to Aaron through thick and thin!
Matt - Groomsman
Matt is Aaron's younger brother! They are only 16 months apart, but couldn't be more different! Matt was the cool kid with the mohawk or dreadlocks who played drums and got all the girls. Aaron was "Matt's brother" in high school, and he was okay with that. Matt is a funny, charasmatic guy with a lot of character and a lot of love to give, and is always very happy for Aaron and I no matter what we're doing! I can't wait to have him as a brother-in-law!
Tory - Groomsman
And then there's Tory... MY brother! I could go on and on and on about how much I love this guy! When we were kids, I was very protective of him, and never grew out of that. He's a wonderful human being. He loves people with all of his being... his family, his friends, his girlfriend Cindy (pictured below). He has a passion for cooking and hockey and adventures! He's much more like my mom than I am as well - laid-back, go-with-the-flow, and spontaneous! He makes me proud every day, and I tear up thinking about him sometimes (like right now) because we almost lost him in 2006 due to a terrible motorcycle accident he had while traveling through Thailand. He has plenty of scars from it, but at least he pulled through. In 2008 he went to Alberta to find work as an electrician, and we all worried about him being away again. But the evening of my 29th birthday party, he showed up at my doorstep as a surprise. I've never been so excited to see someone before! I love him with every ounce of my heart... I only have one brother, and I'm glad it's him. As a bonus, though, he and Aaron have acted like brothers almost from day one, and they even go to the movies without me! :)
Anyways, that's them, the guys that make up Aaron's wedding party. They are all very different, unique, caring guys that love Aaron and we're so excited to not only have them for the day, but to have them all in our lives!
