You might be wondering how someone could have more than one Best Man. ‘Man’ is singular. One. Uno. Ein.

The rules of the English language, or any language for that matter, don’t apply to Kate and Robert’s wedding. He has another brother in his life. His name is Ryan and you better believe he’s getting the “Best Man” label as well… Maybe he’ll change it to “Best Men” just to keep you Grammar Nazis at bay.

Ryan and Robert moved to Sammamish when they were just eight years old. Only a single street and two houses separated the two. What are the chances that two awesome dudes would be put in close vicinity at a time when all it took to make a new friend was to ask “do you want to play…”? No one knows for sure, but it’s obvious that this friendship has turned into a lifelong bond.

It’s impressive how far each of them has come from playing capture the flag, hot lava monster and building forts in “the woods”. Sure, they had their differences and fought them out like clock-work every year. They call it growing up, and they’ve done it together for the past 22 years. Cars, sports, motorcycles, video games, beer, earrings, and a bleached blonde tipped hair style are a few of the things that they each had in common. You want stories? They’ve got em. You want history? They’ve got it. You want to fight with one? Well, you’re fighting with both of them.

Robert couldn’t be more excited to have Ryan be part of his wedding day. It wouldn’t be fair if he didn’t have a shout-out to the entire Juretic Clan (and it’s growing by the minute). They’ve been another integral family in Robert’s life and can’t thank them enough for it.
