Bonnie Pitre
Bonnie Pitre plays Meredith, the sister of the bride. After hearing the description of Tracey the bride, one instantly gets the feeling that these two sisters couldn't be more different. Meredith is not happy to be part of the day's festivities and she isn't afraid to speak her mind about it. But there is something darker lurking just beneath the surface with Meredith and it will test the bonds that these women have formed in their short time stuck in that ridiculous dress with what looks like a bird's nest on their heads. So here she is boys and girls! Our last bridesmaid, Miss Bonnie Pitre:
Bonnie Pitre was born and raised in Eunice and is the daughter of Kenneth and Clara Pitre. She was home schooled throughout elementary and middle school. She attended St. Edmund's during high school and graduated from LSU with a Bachelor's degree in Business Administration and minor in Theatre. Bonnie is currently a co-owner of Lakeview Park & Beach here in Eunice where she wears many hats from managing and bookkeeping to special events planning and bartending. She is also on the board of the Eunice Chamber of Commerce and the Eunice Players' Theater. Some of the more recent roles that Bonnie has had at the Eunice Players' Theatre include Corie Bratter in “Barefoot in the Park”, Honey in “Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” and Sarah in “Providence”. She also worked in the light and sound booth for “If the Shoe Fits” and “On Golden Pond”.
Meredith is the younger sister of Tracy, the bride. She grew up very fast and was introduced to many things at a very young age. Bonnie relates to her character in this sense. She grew up hanging out with her older sister and friends and was always the young one in the bunch...although Bonnie was not introduced to nearly as much as Meredith was. Meredith has a dark secret that she has been holding on to which is the reason for much of her anger and despise towards her sister.

love....children. Currently, she is in her 3rd year as a school counselor, and she
truly loves every minute of it!

to be the moral center of the group but as you will see she has a little bit of
wild side that is waiting to come out. But enough about that, here is Katelin.

Kelly Pitre
Kelly Pitre plays Mindy,
the outspoken lesbian sister of the groom. Mindy is a self described high
strung neurotic who is repressed although she may not be as repressed as she
thinks when it comes to speaking her mind. Here is Kelly:
Kelly Pitre is the wife of Lance Pitre and mother of Matt, Heidi, Alain, Camille and Nic, and various other “adopted” kids who show up at any given time. She is co-owner of L'Acadie Inn and RV Park which she also manages. Kelly attended St. Edmund's, LSU-E, and LSU where she completed her studies with a Master of Arts in Communication Disorders. She also commits time to her community through the Eunice Chamber of Commerce and to her church through the St. Thomas More Bereavement and Life Teen cooking committees. In her other free time, she reads, sews, cooks, and brews a variety of spirits. She is also a semi-professional off-road truck driver, or so she believes.

Kelly says she relates, in some ways, to all the female
characters. She plays the part of Mindy who is the boisterous and sarcastic
lesbian sister-in-law. While Mindy is happy, go-lucky, she uses her sarcasm to
mask her awkwardness. Kelly empathizes with her character, Mindy, very much in
that respect and is affectionately known as “Queen Dragon Lady” at home. But
watch out, Mindy and Kelly's humor and dry wit often hide a touch of truth!
