Alicia & Jonathan
Wedding Party
Alanna Palombo
Maid of Honor
As Alicia's sister and best friend, Alanna, makes the perfect Maid of Honor. There truly are no words to describe the bond Alicia and Alanna have. Days spent singing and dancing to musicals (mostly Standing Ovation), Hannah Montana concerts, endless nights playing Marco Polo and Categories in the pool, and long trips to KOP only to spend it entirely in the Lilly store, Alicia and Jon are blessed to have Alanna share in their special day.
Danielle DiPeso
Bridesmaid
Dan, Ailene, Bob and Gina have been friends for over 50 years so it only makes sense that Alicia's first friend out of the hospital was Danielle. Not only have their parents enjoyed an everlasting friendship but Alicia and Danielle have had some times for the books. Bear hunt, Rockin' Chair everything, butterfly beach days, and OD nights, Alicia could not say, "I do" without Danielle by her side.
Amanda Ryle
Bridesmaid
You may think you can imagine the amount of fun and shenanigans that happens when two best friends are roommates at The University of Rhode Island for 6 years, graduate Pharmacy School together, are members of the same two sororities, love running and spinning together, love mimosas and margaritas more than the rest of the society but this fun can never be truly captured. Alicia and Jon could not imagine their special day without Amanda.
Jillian Baltz
Bridesmaid
Even though they didn't win "Best Friends" for the OCHS Yearbook in 2011, there's really no question they should have. Alicia and Jill's friendship began on the Cyclones Soccer team and continues today as roommates in Philadelphia. From giving "self confidence boosts" to screaming Taylor Swift's "Long Live", and of course always defending Team Edward because how is it possible for someone to be Team Jacob Alicia is so excited for Jill to share in her special day.
Caroline Anderson
Bridesmaid
They say sorority friends don't last, but the quartet of Alicia, Caroline, Carla, and Amanda are here to break that notion. Caroline and Alicia have been close since URI Greeklife placed them both in ADPi in fall '11. From dartys down the line, listening to Jason Derulo, and rapping to Eminen (more Caroline and Alicia cheering her on) there is no way Alicia could stand at the altar and say, "I do" without Caroline.
Carla Giordano
Bridesmaid
The ADPi quartet of Alicia, Carla, Caroline, and Amanda would not have attended many a social and even traveled the world if it were not for Carla. Always available and ready for a good time whether at URI, NYC, or Amsterdam, Alicia is so excited to have Carla as a bridesmaid.
Sarah Ford
Bridesmaid
There is truly no friend like a dance friend, and Sarah and Alicia's Dance Place days were nothing short of legend wait for it ... dary. Driving home together every night with donuts, playing field hockey (kinda), and complaining about AP History and AP Chem on drives back and forth to OC there's no better times to reminisce on. Fun Fact Sarah and her husband, Luke, met at Alicia's Sweet 16; but let's be real Alicia and Sarah's friendship is longer!
Carly Benson
Bridesmaid
One of Jon and Alicia's favorite nights of the year is the annual OctoBEARfest with Sam and Carly. As a massive part of both Jon and Alicia's life, the two of them could not imagine the day without her. Carly has been there from the first Disney trip, Hank Sauce Nights, Beach Days, OD Nights, and every event in between.
Carly Cox
Bridesmaid
Known for their adventures in Pimm's Cups and legendary nights at her house in Strathmere Alicia could not say, "I do" without Carly. Beach patrol, what the buck, OD nights, and walks to Hanks with Solo Cups Carly has shown Alicia and Jon the best times at the Shore.
Chelsea Delgado
Bridesmaid
Alicia's first Christmas spent away from her family at the Delgados was made merrier by Jon's sister Chelsea. Jon and Alicia are both so excited for her to share in their special day and for all the family memories in the future.
Emily McDonnell
Bridesmaid
Alicia will always remember her first day at URI and her mom encouraging her to go across the hall and meet some friends. Emily would be the first friend Alicia made at URI and she couldn't imagine her wedding without her. From CORE studying sessions to Maple Nights Out; Emily and Alicia's friendship is rooted in Rhody but will continue for life.
Beth Saner
Bridesmaid
The birds of Seacliff know 2 guards who sat with them all summer long, and during that time Alicia and Beth's friendship swam farther than Stall on a Nature Swim. From Rookie school to winning Tri-Resorts a stand-partner friendship is one that will never die. Alicia and Jon are so excited for Beth to share in all celebrations with them
Cassie Couture
Bridesmaid
Termed by Alicia as her, "Littlest Friend with the Biggest Heart" there is no way Alicia could say, "I do" without Cassie. From Bonvue to Charlios and Mews in between there's no one better to have a cold brew with than Cassie. Every trip to Rhody is made a little sweeter by a Cassie visit as well!
Leah Walsh
Bridesmaid
Leah has been much more than a LKS big to Alicia. In all honesty their friendship embodies the true spirit of "Rhody Rhody Rhody, Rams Rams Rams!" Being in SAA together, pharmacy school, CVS interns, and all the craziness in between Alicia could not have made it through URI without Leah. As they say, "We're Rhode Island Born and We're Rhode Island Bread and when we Die We'll be Rhode Island Dead!"
