Team Hart
For those of you wondering who the hell Liam Hart is and why Shannon is marrying him, he is the same old Liam Witt we all know and love, just with a different surname. Growing up, he was, and still is, extremely close to his wonderful Gran, which is why he’s decided to take on her maiden name.
Behind Team Hart is an incredible, hilarious and slightly chaotic wedding party. Scroll down to meet them.
PArents
Likes: records, Carlsberg (specifically bottled), Wine Gums, winding Arlene up, cheese and ham toasties and bumping into somewhere he knows no matter where he goes (including Florida).
Dislikes: that one team that ALWAYS lets him down on a football coupon, when Arlene changes the music on Alexa, terrible chart tunes and when Arlene proves him wrong.
Phil Earaker
Likes: cleaning, wine, cleaning with wine (kidding on), P!nk, her “These Days” Jess Glynn ring tone that she doesn’t know how to change and city breaks to Liverpool.
Dislikes: un-dusted surfaces, when Phil pretends to forget things to wind her up (it works), waking up early despite choosing to be an early riser and when it comes to phone upgrade time.
Arlene Earaker
Likes: upcycling furniture, gardening, reminiscing about her goth days (especially that time she was in a Balaam and the Angel music video), yoga, old photos (hence the photo choice), and big Franco the cat.
Dislikes: when Celtic lose, terrible chart tunes, being scared by giant cardboard cutouts of David Tennant, and when Liam and Sean wind her up (literally every time they are together).
Philomena Bain
Likes: punk rock music (the Clash, the Ramones and the Jam), travelling, winding Liam and Sean up, the Toon, punk rock fashion and a good old bev.
Dislikes: terrible music, bad whisky, when Liam and Sean talk absolute nonsense (very frequently) and when Newcastle play terribly at football.
Alex Witt
Maid of Honour
Likes: brunch, margaritas, Taylor Swift, black clothing, coffee, booking holidays, Harry Potter, the word “fronds” and constantly contemplating whether to cut her hair.
Dislikes: Take That (specifically Gary Barlow, sorry Gary), people who wear jumpsuits to beaches, the word “prankied”, when she is reminded of her voice note to Billy after ABBA Voyage and references to her Edna Mode fringe period.
Rachael Sims
Best Men
Likes: Galaxy Sports facilities, talking about Galaxy Sports, working at Galaxy sports, not being able to finish stories for laughing, and the movie Step Brothers.
Dislikes: any hate towards Galaxy Sports, rival football facilities that are not Galaxy Sports, prank calls, Corrine being right and board games (or should we say bored games cus he usually falls asleep playing them).
sean Witt
Likes: baking cakes, eternally competing with Cyb, going to the Offspring gigs, Halloween, starting mosh pits, gift giving, Harry Potter, and watermelon margaritas with Shannon and Rach.
Dislikes: not getting to take penalties at hockey, people who hate Harry Potter, missing gigs due to delayed flights and when people take it too far (although usually, it’s him).
Adam Gardner
Likes: being right, eternally competing with Gardner, going to gigs, Dungeons and Dragons, giving advice, singing, having a gaff and bold shirt choices.
Dislikes: hockey umpires, people who judge his driving, people who don’t like his shirts, references to Ed Sheeran (in his opinion, it’s a lazy ginger joke) and losing at pub quizzes.
Adam Cybulski
Bridesmaids
Likes: musicals, cats (pets and, controversially, the musical), cocktails, Harry Styles, M&S crisps, Taylor Swift and singing.
Dislikes: scooters, Jake Gyllenhaal, anyone who hates musicals, the Dyson Airwrap or Mini Coopers.
Megan McCann
Likes: sweet things (food and her fiancé Joseph), dogs, Cola, pizza, lodges with hot tubs, midi dresses and afternoon tea.
Dislikes: The game ‘Debatable’, how far away Elgin is (it’s a TREK btw), the name Gage and Joseph’s enjoyment of dungarees.
Eilidh Duncan
Groomsmen
Likes: crocs, intensely researching tech, pretending to be a barista, Nike Jordan shoes, movie trivia, shuffleboard, man dates with Liam, Brewdog and Henry Cavill.

Billy Sutherland
(A.K.A Ring Bearer)
Ryan Earaker
(A.K.A Master of Ceremonies)
Likes: hoodies (specifically in neutral colours), randomly singing in high-pitched voices, Tanqueray Seville, sarcasm and the acting required to open a card with money but pretending not to notice.
Dislikes: hatred towards gin and lemonade, TV shows recommended by Shannon, that Picasso did not cut his ear off, when his football bet doesn’t come in, and people who don’t get sarcasm.
Likes: a good rant, using the phrase “it’s a farce”, supporting teams that don’t win trophies, cheating at board games, forgetting that he is a groomsman and travelling the globe.
Dislikes: musicals (“why do they have to sing about everything”), Inverleith Hockey Club, music that isn’t metal and playing Articulate (especially with Rach).
