Five Women Character Breakdown 

• Meredith Marlowe: The bride’s nosy, pot-smoking sister who is very sarcastic and much annoyed with the whole fiasco downstairs. Sporting an outwardly tough attitude, she has a lot of hurt and insecurity to hide.

• Georgeanne Darby: Tracy’s “ugly sidekick” in middle school. Accepted the invite to be a bridesmaid even though her relationship with Tracy is strained because Tracy’s boyfriend once knocked Georgeanne up.

• Trisha: One of Tracy’s former friends with a supposed bad reputation. She’s been with a lot of guys, but not any that measure up.

• Frances: The very naive and religious cousin of the bride.

• Mindy McClure: The groom’s clumsy, outspoken lesbian sister.

• Tripp Davenport (Griffen Lyle Davenport the third): An usher who falls for Trisha. The only male in the show.
