Neil & Terra
Let's be honest. Duffy is the real reason Terra and Neil are together today! Terra and Neil both graduated from the University of Michigan in 2011 and even though they ran in the same circles of friends, they never met in college. After graduating, Neil moved to Chicago while Terra continued living in Ann Arbor. Though their paths would cross at various times, including the wedding of their respective college roommates, they still did not meet.
It was not until the summer of 2015, that the stars aligned and the two finally met over half-off wine night at Cafe Felix in Ann Arbor (it would take five years for Terra to learn that Neil actually despises wine!). Neil had moved to Ann Arbor for residency at Michigan and Terra, being the friendly person she is, decided to welcome him to town with a drink. After all, they did have mutual friends! They talked for more than a drink and Neil told Terra all about his puppy roommate. Although Terra is quite allergic to dogs (a fact she kept hidden from Neil), Terra said she'd love to meet this cute dog some day. Eventually Neil invited Terra over to meet Duffy and she fell in love with the dog - and Neil! The rest is history!
Ilo is Terra's cousin from San Diego. Being the younger cousin, Terra always looked up to Ilo and relished the moments when the two of them got together, staying up late into the evening talking about everything under the sun. Despite growing up and living in different states, they share a sisterlike bond.
Brynn is technically Terra's second cousin, but to keep things simple she is referred to as a cousin. Even though they grew up in different states, and only got to know each other through family reunions and Thanksgiving meals, you would never know it by how close they are! Brynn and Terra can talk until the sun comes up and then some.
Madeline is Neil's niece and will be making her first ever appearance as a bridesmaid at Neil and Terra's wedding. They are so excited to have such an enthusiastic, smart and caring addition to their wedding party!
Amelia is Neil's cute and charming niece. Throughout the wedding weekend, you'll likely find her giggling, joking with her siblings or perhaps causing a little mischief!
Neil's big brother and lifelong best friend! These two have been close since day one and are one another's biggest supporters. They love each other like only brothers can!
