About the Groom: Dan Mayer was born in San Diego and raised in Springfield, Il, along with his older brother (and one of his best men) Shawn, by their parents Elaine and Steve Mayer. Dan is batman for computers and has been starting technology companies since he was 15, most frequently with one of his other best man, Ben Brinckerhoff. Dan also attended the University of Colorado, where he played an odd sport — Broomball (hockey without skates, but still on the ice, a broom-shaped stick, and a ball instead of a puck) — with Robin Wahl, a friend who knew Erin through University Sport Clubs (Erin played field hockey), so when Robin was looking to beef up her roster, Erin was a natural choice. And thus began the story of Erin and Dan. Dan is now a software engineer at LivingSocial in Washington DC. To learn more about Dan, go to his blog at: http://wastedbrains.com/
