Team Groom
Our people standing by our side.
We are so lucky to be surrounded by an incredible group of people who have supported us through every step of our journey. Our bridal party is made up of our closest friends and family — the ones who’ve cheered us on, laughed with us, cried with us, and now, will stand by our side as we say “I do.”
From heartfelt advice to hilarious memories, each person in this group holds a special place in our hearts. We can’t wait for you to meet them and celebrate with us!
Meet The Grooms Crew!
Brian Uphoff
Best Man​
​
Welcome to the digital lair of Brian—the legendary best man, life-advice sage, and fearless leader of a fellowship forged in cardboard, dice, and deep strategy. This is where board game nights become epic sagas, Kraken fandom runs deep, and the friendship is built on trust, betrayal, and the occasional Cylon reveal.
Whether we're navigating the dark corridors of Gloomhaven, surviving the paranoia of Battlestar Galactica, or just offering each other real talk and ridiculous videos, this space and love is for the nerdy-hearted. We’re not just friends—we’re brothers bound by loyalty, laughter, and a shared love of games that take five hours and a rulebook thicker than a novel.

Dylan "Mosby" Nordstrom
Groomsman
If you’ve ever found yourself deep in a nerdy board game rabbit hole, debating the optimal strategy for a pixelated dungeon crawl, or checking out a game at the PAX library —chances are, Mosby was already there, grinning and ready to roll initiative.
Mosby is the kind of friend who turns every moment into a memory. Whether it's navigating the neon streets of Tokyo, hopping trains just to ride more trains (yes, really), or tossing out wild ideas that somehow become legendary group traditions, he brings a spark of curiosity and joy to everything he does.
He’s our resident brainstorm wizard, the guy who can turn “what if…” into “heck yes!” faster than you can say “limited edition JR Pass.” From late-night ramen hunts to impromptu karaoke battles, Mosby is always up for adventure—and somehow makes it feel like the best one yet.
We’re beyond lucky to have him standing beside us on this journey. Groomsman, gamer, globetrotter, and all-around legend—Mosby’s the kind of person who makes life more fun just by showing up.

Mikey Mastrelangelo
Groomsman​
Mikey – Delta Upsilon Ride-or-Die & Tech Nerd Extraordinaire
Mikey isn’t just a groomsman—he’s been Greg’s partner-in-crime since their Delta Upsilon days, where brotherhood meant surviving engineering exams, nerding out over the latest gadgets, and late night programming sessions in the computer lab. Whether they were grinding through classes or playing Halo multiplayer on the Xbox, he was the guy Greg could count on—reliable, sharp, and always ready with a joke that made the stress bearable. That friendship continued from school to Seattle, where Mikey was the friend that introduced him to his new city. Having Mikey by Greg’s side on this big day is a no-brainer—he’s been there through it all, and now he’s here to celebrate the next chapter with just as much heart and humor.

Dr. Brent Brown
Groomsman​
Step into the nostalgia-laced legend of Dr. Brent Brown—Greg’s oldest friend and living proof that some friendships really do stand the test of time.
Before there were jobs and adult responsibilities, there were two kids, two yards, and one custom-built gate connecting them like some kind of suburban secret passage. From elementary school adventures to high school hijinks, Greg and Brent were inseparable—armed with inside jokes like “left, right, barn” and “the equalizer,” which, to this day, still make exactly zero sense to anyone else. Perfect.
Even when college tried to divide them—Purdue vs. IU, the ultimate showdown—they stayed close. Rivalry be damned, their friendship survived dorm food, long-distance bro-ship, and Brent eventually getting fancy letters like “Dr.” in front of his name.
Now living in San Diego (where he bravely fights off sunshine and 75° days), Brent still makes time for reunions, catch-ups, and adding new chapters to a story that started decades ago and shows no signs of slowing down.
This is Brent: childhood bestie, backyard adventurer, and the kind of friend who proves that some bonds don’t fade—they just get funnier with time.

Brandon Paddock
Step right up to the curated corner of the internet dedicated to Brandon—groomsman extraordinaire, wine snob in training, and co-conspirator in Greg’s ongoing quest for the perfect board game and the perfect Pinot.
Brandon and Greg’s friendship was forged in the fires of tabletop warfare, Marvel movie marathons, and long, wine-fueled debates about which new Star Wars movie was worth the watch. From cozy nights at The Barrel Thief to international escapades in Europe and Japan, the adventures never stop.
This is Brandon: the guy you want on your team when the rulebook is complicated, the stakes are high, and the bottle is already open.
