Role description

Kate is Susie's Bride-to-be sister. She's organized, driven, and armed with a three-ring binder that could be her emotional support animal. Kate is a powerful woman who gets things done. She just sometimes forgets to ask if the people around her are okay with what's getting done. Underneath the Christmas Bridezilla surface is a deeply loving sister who genuinely wants the best for the people around her, even when her methods are a touch manipulative. Her relationship with Susie has rough edges that the holidays quietly sand down, one honest conversation at a time. CAUCASIAN

He has a genuine gift for making people feel like the room got a little warmer. He doesn't push, he just stays, and that may what is required to make it past Susie's walls. OPEN ETHNICITY
