Her relationship with Susie has rough edges that the holidays quietly sand down, one honest conversation at a time. CAUCASIAN
CHASE
Chase is the best man and best friend of the groom Geoff, who, thanks to a little maternal influence, has found himself as the next potential match for Susie.

Barb hugs strangers, listens at doorways, and has a radar for emotional subtext that would make any therapist jealous. She is the holiday's secret architect. CAUCASIAN
WALT
Walt is the calm, collected, genial father of Susie and Kate. Walt is the warm, steady counterpoint to Barb's enthusiastic meddling. He's a man who expresses love through presence rather than words, and whose cheerful steadiness grounds the whole family. His attempt at levity may sometimes be misplaced but his love runs deep. CAUCASIAN
GEOFF
Geoff is the groom, and an easy one to love. He is possessed of an infectious warmth that makes everyone in the room feel like a long-lost friend. Geoff is the kind of person who plans a confectionary sleigh ride for his wedding party from a hotel in Switzerland because he wanted to give them a needed break. He and Chase have a years of easy friendship chemistry, and his excitement about marrying Kate vibrates the core of everyone involved with the wedding. He is uncomplicated in the best possible way.
