Staci is the middle sister (often forgotten) of the Baker 3. She was immediately relieved at the announcement of Jenni and Phil's engagement that she would FINALLY be able to "stand first" for her sister. She has been given strict orders to NOT mention the "D word" during her speech, which she has been known to do.

Kelli is Jenni's oldest and tallest sister. Kelli has adopted the love and misery of being a Buffalo Bills fan. Kelli often seems to find herself siding with the Groom during disputes (which means she's on the correct side of every argument.) But also the Bride and Groom never argue.

Bridesmaidzilla is a Doctor of Physical Therapy in Buffalo, New York and Phil's baby sister. Wedding planner extraordinaire, definitely not afraid to ask (demand) she get her way. She's helping Jenni and Phil while also planning her own wedding in 2026.

Katie is Jenni's cousin. If they aren't hiking the mini incline together, they are conjuring up excuses to find themselves in a spa, or a hot tub, or hot springs, or taking mini vacations to catch up on the latest gossip (you can call them mini Grandma Kays).

Besties since 6th grade locker introduction, Katie and Jenni grew up 5 blocks from each other. Quickly, the Carleos and Bakers became an important part of each others lives. Jenni is affectionately known to the Carleo family as "blue cheese."

Jenni and Laney have been friends since their church youth group days. Laney often has to keep the Groom in line. Especially when he is not wearing boxers underneath his robe on a friend-cation in Mexico. (No, but seriously - this really happened).

From college party days, nursing hangovers, and subsequently learning to "adult", Jenni and Lexi never let the distance come between them. Some would say that Jenni precipitously stole Lexi from her sister, Staci (who, as a concerned first-grader, thought her classmate and recess buddy would never be able to run again after an appendectomy).

Rubi is Jenni's oldest niece, a 14 year-old (soon to be) freshmen. She lives in Pueblo, Colorado, and enjoys READING. It’s debatable whether she will have a book with her as she goes down the aisle. Rubi primarily looks forward to dancing to every song at the wedding.

Catherine (11) is Jenni's niece, and a 6th grade student in her hometown of Pueblo, Colorado. She is known to be the most indecisive of the whole Baker family. Catherine is looking forward to...cake...no, dancing... no... maybe the ceremony...?

Charlotte (10) is Jenni's youngest niece. Charlotte has been anxiously awaiting the wedding day, so she can stop asking Humma (Jenni's Mom) if she can try on her bridesmaids dress. Again.

Camryn is Phil's cousin's daughter. Camryn played a pivotal role in Phil popping the question. She ran interference in the form of being adorable while Jenni held her, so Phil could gather the ring and most importantly find the courage to propose in front of 70+ people.

Groom's older brother. Moved to Denver first hoping to meet an older person with property. Had to leave when Phil did that instead.

Justin is Phil's cousin and a State Trooper, (fortunately in Indiana) Luckily, he wasn't able to bring his radar gun on the plane, so when he catches you speeding to the wedding, he'll only be handing out stern finger-wags and looks of disappointment. Justin, Keith and Phil are most notably known for being the trouble makers of the cousin group.

Omni-present Keith, can be found lurking in the shadows wherever the bride and groom are. At some point, the bride and groom will be leaving on a flight to their honeymoon, hoping Keith won't be a stowaway in their luggage.

Dortch is one of Phil's best buddies on the ice and off. Dortch and Phil frequently solve the world's problems over Taco Tuesday, one of their favorite pastimes. Dortch is full of wisdom and isn't afraid to share or let you know. Coco is a way better detector dog than Puck.

Harry and Phil became best buds during Phil's first year at Brockport. For the next several years, they lived together, where Harry affectionately became known as the "Dad" of the group, trying to talk the boys out of all the shenanigans. However, after a couple Genny Cream Ales and a Kamikaze, Harry was the one leading the charge.

Can be credited for bringing this whole happily ever-after together. Jenni and Phil met because Joe needed a wingman one night. Loves Vegas; may be taking a red-eye to Vegas the night of the wedding.

Bender is Phil's coworker, but more importantly Phil's hunting guide. Most notably, he can be credited with the elk mount currently obstructing the walkway in Jenni and Phil's 900 sq ft house with only 7 ft tall ceilings.

Max, 15, is the oldest nephew. It's a real battle of wit between Max and his new Uncle Phil. Some of Max's smart remarks have his wedding duties teetering between sweeping the parking lot, "busting" tables, driving the party bus, or standing up as a groomsman. We'll see on the big day if he's allowed in the building.

Samuel is Jenni's 12 year old nephew. He's athletically gifted and enjoys whomping on Uncle Phil at any backyard game involving a ball. Samuel and Phil have a similar family structure and a lot in common - they both have an older brother, younger sister, are the smartest, funniest and the best looking.

Alister is the youngest nephew of Jenni's, at age 8. He was the only member of the bridal party required to submit a resume. AFTER he was selected, he came to Jenni and Phil with the question "What if I said no?" Alister enjoys dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and annoying his sisters. He is most excited about walking down the aisle, both at the beginning of the ceremony and the end.

Has the Irish Gift of Gab. May need to be clapped off the podium so we can all eat dinner. Ask him about the color magenta.

This is Melanie's first and favorite child to get married. She's not shy about it either. She also has the Irish Gift of Gab, although not Irish.

Advocated for elopement...but here we are, writing a bio for him on the wedding website. Also, Phil owes Randy $0.50. Ask him why.

The most sensible Baker. The wedding dress maker. Family care-taker. Only a mere 15-year gap between her last wedding dress creation - thought she'd never get to make her 3rd daughter's dress.

Andrew is Jenni's brother-in-law and friend since childhood. Phil and Andrew have a lot of common, such as hearing the frequently repeated phrase: "God bless you for marrying my daughter."
