Best Man
In Chapter 1, Nora teases you for talking to her older brother, Best Man. She tells you that she doesn't want him to plan her wedding because he would plan a red carpet event with pyrotechnics. When he discovers that she hired you to be her wedding planner, he protests due to your anger issues and emotional outbursts. At the end of Chapter 2, she agrees to a "bet" where you will prove your professionalism and he will back down at her first dress fitting. In Chapter 4, she begins to see his point of view when she witnesses your retort to Dale and Bitsy at the dress shop. Unbeknownst to her, he gives you a second chance to prove yourself by planning her bridal shower.

Monica Simmons
Monica is her fiancee (and by the end of the story, her wife). They met five years ago when Monica won a free ticket to a show that Nora was performing on stage. After the show, Monica stuck out from the other patrons as she didn't talk or approach any of the actors for autographs or pictures. Nora took the initiative to speak first, and asked Monica for her phone number. Later, during a date in the park, Monica kissed Nora first; and dates after, Nora was flustered but finally told Monica "I love you" first. Monica proposed to Nora on stage after one of the latter's rehearsals with the help of Best Man. When Nora said yes, they were met with a standing ovation from Nora's cast and crewmates.

Your Character
In Chapter 1, Nora is impressed by what you did for Alison at her wedding to Sam.
