Meet the Wedding Party
Matt
Matt is Cam’s brother and lifelong bestie. Matt is the Yin to Cam’s Yang and often both will find themselves seeking advice from the other – on rare occasions, the advice might actually be good.
Matt’s been around for a lifetime of shenanigans and mischief. From playing army men on the floor together as kids to now playing army together on the computer as adults, so much has changed.
Matt loves a run, loves the bus, and loves surfing. If you run into him, ask him about his record-breaking story points achievement.

Caitlyn
If there was an award for furthest travelling member of the bridal party, Caitlyn would be the recipient, coming all the way from London to be here!
Caitlyn and Em met in high school doing two of the coolest activities available to teenagers at the time: playing tennis, and singing in choir. They also spent one semester studying (and goofing off) at university together before Em switched to a different degree.
Caitlyn is an icon at closing her eyes in most photos, laying down the law (literally), and faultlessly remembering the water and sunlight needs of her variety of house plants.

Chris
Chris is one of the best people to have around in your life, he’s always excited to jump in and help at the drop of a hat. He loves to visit friends, usually to pick up something he left at their place last time he saw them.
Chris was originally introduced to Cam as “one of the enemies” (playing a rival game), but this ruse was quicky seen through and Cam’s never looked back. Chris is a fellow lover of board games, tabletop games, computer games, and many others with Cam.
Chris is an avid woodworker and his party trick is being easily able to identify treated wood at a glance. He loves to cook and if you get the chance, you’ve got to try his kangaroo stew.

Andy
Andrha is just thrilled to be here! She's so glad Em and Cam are living through their happy ending.
She enjoys reading, borrowing Emily's books for unspecified amounts of time and then critiquing them, and drinking lots of coffee. She's also a fan of a tight winged liner, antique shops, and a lychee cocktail.
She's known Em since 2010, when they regularly haunted the library together and ‘studied’ unsuccessfully through high school French. This is where they bonded over music and books and they've been friends ever since!

Clinton
Clinton is Cam’s longest friendship other than Matt. They met after waving to each other across their front yards in primary school. A few games of backyard laser tag and a few rotting trees knocked over in a swamp later, and Clint and Cam became fast friends. They shared many late nights playing games of all sorts, and many days trying to build a house on sand.
Clint is one of Australia’s top karate experts, and shared his love of karate with Cam for a few years before Cam moved to Mackay. Legends say that Clint is training his body to be able to cut a palm tree in half with just one punch.
Clint is an avid fisherman and rain magnet – he loves the water and the water loves him. Clint’s interests include being poked in the eye, replaying the tutorial of Icewind Dale 2, and tormenting his friends with unsolicited games of “guess the body part”.

Bonnie
Em and Bonnie first met in 2020 when Em started dating Cam and Bonnie quickly introduced her to the ways of playing Rocket League on the XBox. They have since bonded over a shared love of musical theatre, talking about the Sims franchise, making book recommendations to one another, and marrying into the same family.
Bonnie married Cam’s brother Matt in 2024. Em saw them absolutely crush wedding planning and thought, “If we can do ours half as well as that I will be over the moon.”
If you have a minute to chat to Bonnie, you should ask her about the definition of pies or her experience washing her washing machine with caster sugar.

Nick
If you think you’re seeing double in the groomsmen, don’t worry – Nick and Chris are often confused for each other. Nick is a music aficionado, always on the lookout for the freshest tracks to pair with his professional dance moves.
Nick was introduced to Cam on Nick’s 18th birthday. Nick wanted a quiet birthday party with no fuss, but on that fateful night Cam came home sloshed and made it a birthday Nick will never forget.
Nick is a trendsetter, if he says “eat this chili” at hotpot dinner then you know that everyone will try it, and if he says “the gourd is good” then you know it will be.

Mel
Mel and Em’s friendship began with one of those ‘wow you look really familiar’ moments across a university study table. The following week Mel brought in her grade one primary school photo and there Em was in the front row.
Since then, their friendship has spanned Em’s move to Rockhampton and Mel’s move to New Zealand and back. They are united by a shared love of eating dry cereal straight from the box, alpacas, and laughing at memories of Mel’s 21st birthday bubble soccer party (photos available on request).
Mel has very kindly housed Em’s wedding dress during the planning period (because Em can’t be trusted to not show it to anyone who visits the house) and regularly talks to it so it doesn’t feel lonely.

Luna
Lunadog, Lunapup, Sweetiepup, Cutiepup, Stinky. Luna is known by and responds to many totally accurate names and has absolutely changed Em and Cam’s lives for the better since she moved to live with them.
You may know Luna from such encounters as barking at the sky during storms, sniffing the perimeter of any space she enters, licking your hands when you least expect it, or whipping you in the shins with her weapon of a tail.
She is (presumably) delighted to be taking part in her parents’ special day in her capacity as chief photography subject and pats collector.
