Chief Bridal Officer
Claire Solomon
The one who is Audrey's sister
Claire is Audrey's younger (and arguably wiser) sister. The Solomon sisters shared a room for 14 years, but somehow made it through that insanity to become best friends. Claire has been Audrey's biggest supporter, emotional sherpa, and life co-pilot. Even though Claire and Audrey moved to opposite ends of the West Coast, they travel often to visit each other (and to make sure their matching dogs get to hang out). They may not look super alike, but as soon as they start talking, you can immediately tell they are sisters.

Témoin de la mariée
Julia Fraenkel
The one who is Nathan's sister
Julia and Audrey obviously met through Nathan, but quickly developed their own friendship. They've been lucky to spend quality time together in Seattle, the Bay Area, New York, Mammoth, and France. They share a love of skiing, mini cameras, laughing, and making other people laugh. Julia is possibly the funniest person Audrey has ever met, and Audrey is grateful to have such an incredible future sister-in-law.

Témoin de la mariée
Emily Eiland
The one who convinced Audrey to try SoulCycle
Emily is one of Audrey's most formative friends - she introduced Audrey to SoulCycle, European manicures, and to the amazing city of Seattle. Their friendship really blossomed when they both lived in San Francisco, and continued to grow in the PNW. Emily and Audrey love chatting about home renovations and embarrassing everyone on the dance floor. They still go to SoulCycle and brunch together almost every Sunday.

Témoin de la mariée
Sean Morse
The one who was Audrey's wedding date before Nate
Sean and Audrey are a real iconic duo. They became besties after meeting through friends at Coachella many years ago, and have since been on many adventures together, including an incredible and memorable European road trip through Slovenia, Germany, and Amsterdam.

Témoin de la mariée
Jessica Lester
The one who was there for the ballet years
Jessica and Audrey have been close friends for most of their lives. They met at San Francisco Ballet school when they were about 10 years old, and were both Clara in the Nutcracker at the same time! They've come a long way since making Hannah Montana music videos together, but have stayed close friends through the years.

Chief Groom Officer
Dimitri Shocron
The one who is basically Nate's brother
Where to even begin with this guy…! Answer: basically at the beginning of it all! Nathan and Dimitri became best friends in pre-K at École Bilingue. Their families were also friends, and they went on many vacations together as kids (which is where they first started getting into trouble together). Despite having very different high school and college experiences and young adult lives, they managed to stay best friends. Nathan considers Dimitri his “brother” since they’ve been so close for so long. They have supported each other through the hard times and celebrated the good. Fast forward to today and nothing has really changed.

Témoin du marié
Dan Zhang
The one who got a job at Facebook when Nate didn't
Nate and Dan met on their 1st day of college - they were next-door neighbors on their Freshman hall and instantly became best friends. They were joined at the hip thereafter, both majoring in Computer Science and pledging the same fraternity. With birthdays 7 days apart, they held a streak of 9+ joint birthday bonanzas, spanning from college into their 30s. After college, despite moving to NYC together as roommates, their lives started to diverge - Dan got a job at Facebook and Nate did not (which Nate is not at all salty about). Despite Nate moving to Seattle (which Dan is not at all salty about), the two have maintained their friendship, through countless ski trips, visits across the country, and Nate being Dan’s best man at his wedding.

Témoin du marié
Toan Nguyen
The one who Nate aspires to one day be as cool as
Nate and Toan met in college when Toan joined the same fraternity as Nate. As a non-American, Nate took Toan under his wing and brought him to California for Thanksgiving during college. Ever since, they’ve become extremely close friends and always managed to spend a lot of time together in NYC, Seattle, the Bay Area, Madrid, and many places in between. Additionally, as a nerd at heart who always wanted to be cool, Nate was grateful that Toan took him under his wing, to teach him the ways of cool hair and high fashion. Toan was the person who originally convinced Nate to start styling his hair, for which Nate (and probably everyone) is eternally grateful. Nate and Toan both love soccer, music, and skiing.

Témoin du marié
Rahul Rao
The one who is as obsessed with soccer as Nate is
Nate and Rahul have been best friends since high school. They spent countless hours riding around in Rahul’s Honda CR-V (RIP), playing pick-up soccer, and eating Gordo’s burritos. Though Rahul stayed in the Bay Area for college and his young adult life, he was always at the top of Nate’s “must hang out when back in town” list. They also share an obsession with soccer - they fulfilled a shared lifelong dream when they went to Brazil together for the 2014 World Cup. Nate was also a groomsman at Rahul’s wedding in Cabo San Lucas.

Témoin du marié
Taro Takigawa
The one who is Nate’s right-hand man in Seattle
Nate and Taro originally became good friends in high school. They had heard about each other through the Bay Area youth club soccer scene, but officially joined forces when they became key figures on the College Preparatory School soccer team. Fast forward to 2019, Taro made the move from LA to Seattle. Overjoyed to be reunited, the two rekindled their friendship. After many Seattle men’s league games, concerts, July 4th boat days, and winter hot pot / Korean BBQ dinners, it’s clear they couldn’t be in Seattle without each other.
