Ana Cristina & William
Wedding Party
Ana Cristina Cujar
Bride
Stop what you're doing, 'cuz I'm about to ruin the image and the style that you're use to.... Rapping the "Humpty Dance" is Ana Cristina's only party trick, but it's a pretty accurate representation on what makes her so dang irresistible to William Patrick. This is her first lead role starting in a wedding and let's hope it's her last (JK JK, it will be-- this marriage is the real deal). Catch her walking down the aisle in 2019, she'll be the one in white!
William Fox Jr.
Groom
THIS IS NOT A DRILL! William’s getting hitched! Although he stated back in '07 he wouldn't get married until he was 37 (just ask Valton for the whole story) he stands corrected! He has picked his studs and their duds, so now the real question is: is he going to double as the groom AND the DJ? You'll just have to come to the wedding to see...!
Susan Cujar
Mother of the Bride
Little does she know, her retired Volvo AKA "The Sooze Mobile" played a key role in the budding relationship of her first born to WPF. No no no, not like THAT! See, The Sooze Mobile had a 6 disk CD changer, which allowed Ana to play 6 months worth of mix tapes seamlessly in order to serenade the heck out of Bill. THANKS MOM, we owe you one.
Eileen Fox
Mother of the Groom
If my mom were creating the wedding playlist, her top three songs would be: "Horse With No Name" by America, "Viva La Vida" by Coldplay, and "Girl From Ipanema" by ANYONE preforming it. She's a classic Rock & Roll woman, makes the best mom's spaghetti I know, and made me the man I am today. For these reasons and more, I am eternally grateful.
Oscar Cujar
Father of the Bride
"Papi" is truly the man, the myth, the legend. He always knows what to say, even if it's a metaphor that doesn't exactly translate from Spanish to English. When his "Osita" brought home tall, fair-skin and very blonde Bill, all Papi said was, "his hair is espiky". We took that as his seal of approval, because from that day forward Oscar has let Bill serve as his co-piloto at the Cujar crib. He has ridden his bike all around Michigan, back and forth Iowa...five times, up and down mountains in Colombia just to be there on our wedding day. For that Papi, we'll let you wear your famous banano suit if you want!
William Fox Sr.
Father of the Groom
I inherited more than a name when I was born. My dad made sure I knew how to change the oil of my Saturn, how to score a 405 in Yahtzee and how to hit a home run! And boy did I score! Although we don't share everything (a natural tan and black hair for starters) we do share a drive to entertain and support our families. I wouldn't be the same without the lessons you showed me. Here's to you dad!
Meaghan Newberg
Maid of Honor
Meaghan is as true as friends come. She is the logical ying to my emotional yang. She's the first to ogle at any double-chinned ironically-sent selfie in the group text and the last to remind me I'm pruty when I need a little pick me up. Some gems sparkle, but this gem GLITTERS GOLD!
Ryan McFadden
Honorable Best Man
A Corporate Krill and my best man, Ryan has stood the test of time as one of my most endeared allies. There is an idea of Ryan McFadden, some kind of abstraction. But there is no real Ryan. Only an entity, something illusory. And though he can hide his cold gaze, and you can shake his hand and feel flesh gripping yours--maybe you can even sense your lifestyles are probably comparable: he is simply not there.
Liliana Cujar
Sister of Honor
Strangers always think Liliana is my older sister, but they have it all wrong: we're twins (jk, I'm older by 21 months, but said strangers believe us anyways). She's the Madonna to my Princess Di, the Ren to my Stimpy, the piña to my colada & I could never imagine getting married without her by my side!
Mitch Spelde
Friend of Honor
MITCHY! CHEDDA! "insert other nickname only Mitch responds to"! Aquinas pals turned brothas, Mitch and my bond is symbiotic. We have a shared (twisted) sense of humor, love for Asian Zing BDubs sauce, and rooting for the Detroit Lions. Mitch is unwavering loyal, loves love and makes me want to be a better person. Damn it Mitch, I need you to be there when I say "I Do"! Also, Ball So Hard.
Elena Cujar
Sister of Honor
Just when we thought the "Legendary Cujars" couldn't get more legendary, the heavens sent us this cherub. Turning our duo into a trifecta, Elena brings all the jokes and milkshakes to the yard. She's an important part of the bridal party, e̶v̶e̶n̶ ̶t̶h̶o̶u̶g̶h̶ ̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶i̶n̶v̶o̶l̶v̶e̶m̶e̶n̶t̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶r̶e̶a̶l̶l̶y̶ ̶r̶a̶n̶s̶o̶m̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶r̶e̶l̶e̶a̶s̶e̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶h̶e̶r̶ ̶1̶0̶8̶o̶z̶ ̶c̶a̶n̶ ̶o̶f̶ ̶B̶e̶e̶f̶y̶ ̶C̶h̶e̶f̶ ̶B̶o̶i̶-̶R̶-̶D̶e̶e̶ ̶t̶a̶k̶e̶n̶ ̶h̶o̶s̶t̶a̶g̶e̶ ̶b̶y̶ ̶#̶t̶h̶e̶f̶o̶x̶e̶s̶2̶0̶1̶9, and we expect her to dance all night long! Love ya sister.
Valton Dullovii
Friend of Honor
“Tony, to the IT room!” in the summer of ’07, Valton led William to his first high school job at Gentz Industries. While William ruminates on those Gentz days sleepily, it was there they formed a special bond into their college years and beyond. Reliable and ethical, Valton’s contention is that prior to the American Revolution, the economic modalities—especially in the southern colonies—could most aptly be characterized as agrarian pre-capitalist.
Andrea Fox
Sister of Honor
Serving as President of the "Billy Fox Fan Club" since 1991, Andrea has endlessly cheered me onto victory no matter the challenge-- even when I retaliated against the Extreme Scream ghoul in '01... She has passed on to me many treasures (most notably: a very loved Edvard Munch's "The Scream" t-shirt), as well as her love for good music, good books, good coffee drinks, and a good snaggletooth smile. I can't think of many big sisters who want to spend all their time with their younger brothers, but Andrea I'm so happy you have spent so much time with me. Thanks for being here for me since day one. I can't wait to share my number one day with you.
George Constance
Cousin of Honor
A loved first cousin, George was largely a big brother figure to me growing up. Whether it was WWF trampoline wrestling matches, or playing target practice on discarded GI-Joes, George was my introduction to many of life’s amusements. As a college Freshman, I got my first taste of the college life when visiting George at CMU for welcome weekend. Many good times were had in these frequent (but not incessant) visits. Although we've both come a long way since college, I hope we can still party all night long next November.
Jacquelyn Fox
Sister of Honor
Jackie's not superstitious, but maybe she's just a little stitious? Just playin'! Even though Jackie lives in Scranton, doesn't mean she's Michael Scott! Jackie is a marathon runner, world traveler, and oyster connoisseur. As my oldest and wisest sisters, she paved the way for me in the Fox family. She has shown me what it means to be devoted to family through thick and thin, near and far. And although The Office references might breeze over her head (because people in Scranton don't watch The Office?) I can't imagine life without her, especially on my wedding day!
Jon Essenmacher
Friend of Honor
"Ya like Huey Lewis and the News?" ever since being enticed by his original VHS copy of the 1994 masterpiece Pulp Fiction, William was, needless to say, intrigued by this fellow. Their beginnings in Warren little league baseball metamorphosed into festive camaraderie senior year in Mr. Keller's AP chemistry class. William quickly learned a few things about Jon Jon, whereas it was he almost lost a limb standing between him and McDonald’s breakfast. Come on out to the shed Jon! We have something to show you, it's the damndest thing.
Alanna Constance
Cousin of Honor
One of the many highlights of marrying Bill is acquiring ONE OF THE BEST COUSINS THIS WORLD HAS TO OFFER! Alanna is a "ride or die" woman aka total saint and confidant. I'm so happy she'll be with me as I say "I Do". I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with her as my cuz.
Steve Tuohey
Friend of Honor
This isn’t thug Life! An early friend of William’s, Steve was there for many pivotal events including, but not limited to, their first flamethrower project, where many ants surrendered to the blaze. Steve continues to be a supportive and reliable friend to William. An accomplished State Trooper, be sure to ask Steve about his infamous “Horse Story”—it can really go either way.
Courtney Meisel
Friend of Honor
My parents didn't give me a brother, but Troy High School did! Introducing: Bro! Courtney has been my 24/7 on-demand voice of reason and tranquility for the past 11 years #bigbravedog! I owe my success as a human to her and in her honor, she'll be one of my honorable bridesmaids on my big day!!
Joe Vandro
Friend of Honor
William and Joe first ignited their friendship in the early 2000s emulating what they thought to be thrifty stunts from CKY and Jackass—luckily evading authorities in the process. Catch this fellow wrenching in the garage, or giving mechanical advice for that undiagnosable noise under your hood, Joe is a guy you can count on to build impromptu tiki bars or tell you how he really feels about Pink Floyd—just ask him.
Margaret Miller
Friend of Honor
Margaret and I were practically roommates with each other our freshman year at Aquinas. She is shamelessly uncensored, expressive and totally honest. & I totally love her! When I have questions about life, political correctness, or art movements I come to this goddess.
Jonny Bice
Friend of Honor
28 days. 6 hours, 42 minutes and 12 seconds. An early ping pong collaborator of William’s, Jonny B acquainted him into the Royal Oak food service scene. While in high school, Jonathan and William worked as a duo at Little Tree Sushi Bar. Their tenure at Little Tree introduced them to every valedictorian, villain, or vagabond metro Detroit had to offer. While these days have gone to the ether, it is with great zest William looks back on them. A reliable ally and intrepid handyman, Jonny B stands distinguished among the wedding barons.
Colin, Norah & Emma Comerford
Jr. Glam Squad
Two seconds after we asked them to be in our wedding, these three sorted out all our unknown wedding details including who's walking Penny down the aisle, if our first dance would be to "Karma Chameleon" and the possibility of only serving sushi rolls at dinner. While all these ideas are amazing, we have a few different ideas in mind, but we'll let them play out their wedding fantasies in Fortnite or Minecraft or whatever game kids are playing these days. For our big day, we'll just keep them in charge of the fun.
