Real Characters
Ashley LaRae as Jess
Jess is a headstrong preacher’s daughter eager to prove that she’s happy on her own. Seriously. She’s fine. So stop asking.
A Colorado native, Ashley has been a working actor in Hollywood for 8 years. She recently appeared in Fatale opposite Hilary Swank and Michael Ealy. Ashley brings Jess to unforgettable life with her natural charm and considerable talent.
Burke Brown as Alex
Alex is a romantic, self-deprecating florist, trapped between his attachment to Jess and new feelings for Danielle.
Burke has been an award-winning stage and screen actor from a young age. He has appeared in numerous TV shows and movies, including The Walking Dead and Marvel’s She-Hulk: Attorney at Law. His undeniable energy imbues the lead role of Alex with an irresistible exuberance.
Mark Christopher Lawrence as Pastor T
Jess’ father and a widower, Pastor T is eager to see his troublesome daughter hitched and happy.
Mark Christopher Lawrence is perhaps best-known for his long-running role as Big Mike on the NBC series Chuck, but has appeared in such wide-ranging films such as Terminator 2: Judgment Day, Planet of the Apes, Lost Treasure and The Pursuit of Happyness. Younger audiences will recognize him from Family Camp and his hit stand-up segment on Dry Bar Comedy. Mark’s ability to pivot on a dime from humor to heart makes Pastor T a magnetic character.
Megan Alexander as Dr. Harrington
Megan Alexander has a special appearance as Dr. Harrington. Her medical opinion may leave something to be desired, but her relationship advice is spot on.
Megan is best known for her longtime role as a correspondent on Inside Edition. She has also appeared in God’s Not Dead: A Light in Darkness, Heartbeats, and Nashville, among others.
Danielle Renee Vivarttas
Rachel: This upbeat, socialite bride-to-be is NOT going to let anything or anyone get between her and the Best. Wedding. Ever. Okay? Great!
Peter Bussian
Sam: The stalwart and affable groom, who fell for Rachel hard and fast. But now that the day is here, perhaps they went a little too fast. You know?
Dorothy Berglund
Danielle: Sugar and spice and everything nice. She likes Alex, but this sweetheart is nobody’s fool.
Sonny G
Loren: A highly optimistic, slogan slinging fitness fanatic. Generally clueless, but especially unaware that Pastor T would be proud to have him as a son (in-law).
