Wedding Party
Ashley Parent
Matron of Honor
Sister by blood, best friend by choice. Ashley has been by the bride's side through every chapter of life—from childhood adventures and inside jokes to late-night heart-to-hearts (let's not forget the middle-of-the-night knocks through the wall they shared of their childhood bedrooms during a thunderstorm) and endless support. She’s the one who knows her better than anyone, who tells it like it is, and who always shows up with love, laughter, and loyalty. She couldn’t imagine standing at the altar without her right by her side. She’s not just her sister, but truly her built-in forever best friend.
Matt Aini
Best Man
Matt is the groom’s best friend and college partner-in-crime. While they didn’t spend much time in the library, they definitely earned a degree in late-night adventures and unforgettable memories. Their friendship has stood the test of time (and some questionable decisions), and there’s no one better suited to stand by his side as best man. If anyone has the stories—Matt does… but let’s hope he keeps most of them to himself.
Sydney Alton
Maid of Honor
Sydney is the bride's soon-to-be sister-in-law and has been a wonderful part of her life for the past five years. Throughout this time, she has shown unwavering support, kindness, and a steady presence. She is truly grateful to have her standing beside her as her maid of honor, sharing in this special day and the journey ahead. She has quickly become the little sister that she has always wanted.
Brian Colbert
Best Man
Brian and the groom have been best friends since their college days, where their time was mostly spent avoiding early classes and staying up too late playing Call of Duty. Since then, their friendship has only grown—trading in dorm rooms for hunting gear and picking up golf (somewhat competitively) after graduation. Brian brings the laughs, the loyalty, and the kind of stories that usually start with “remember that one time…” Having him stand as one of the best men is a no-brainer—he’s been a part of the ride since the early days.
Jessica Zazzara
Bridesmaid
Technically, Jessica is the. bride's cousin, but has been more like a sister since growing up; they are only nine months apart! They were the best of friends growing up together through every milestone. Jessica is known to be the life of every party—she makes everyone laugh, can easily light up the room, and brings the fun wherever she goes. Having her by the bride's side means the celebration is guaranteed to be an unforgettable one.
Logan Diefenbacher
Groomsman
Logan is the groom’s cousin, but they’ve always been more like brothers. Just three months apart, they spent their childhoods playing baseball, basketball, riding bikes, and bowling together—where Logan quickly earned a reputation as one of the best bowlers around. His kind heart and unique outlook have made their bond truly special. The groom is proud to have Logan standing with him on this important day.
Juliana Zazzara
Bridesmaid
Juliana, also the bride's cousin, but she, too, has always been more like a sister. She brings such a fun, positive energy to everything and has a way of making everyone feel welcome and loved. The two have shared so many memories over the years, and she is so thankful to have her by her side as they celebrate this next chapter together.
Dawson Curtis
Groomsman
Dawson may be the youngest cousin, but he’s always been right in the thick of things. Growing up close, the two have shared countless family gatherings filled with friendly cornhole and Texas horseshoes competitions, along with endless conversations about all things sports. Dawson’s easygoing nature and competitive spirit make him a great part of the family—and the groom is thrilled to have him standing by his side on the big day.
Michela Zazzara
Bridesmaid
Michela is the bride's youngest cousin, but she too was always more like a little sister—and a wild one at that! She’s full of personality, never fails to make everyone laugh, and brings the kind of energy that keeps things interesting (in the best way). There’s never a dull moment with her around, and she wouldn’t want to celebrate this day without her by her side.
Charles Alton
Groomsman
Charles is the groom’s cousin, but they’ve always been more like brothers. Growing up side by side, they spent countless hours playing baseball together and creating memories that have lasted a lifetime. Their close bond has been a constant through the years, and the groom is honored to have Charles standing beside him on this special day.
Brianna Purcio
Bridesmaid
Bri has been one of the bride's best friends since sixth grade. Even though they may not see or talk to each other every single day, they are both always able to pick up right where we left off—like no time has passed at all. She’s the kind of friend who’s seen it all and stayed by the bride's side through every chapter, and let's not forget every awkward phase of growing up together. The bride is so lucky to have her here to celebrate this day with her.
Greg Pitcher
Groomsman
Greg has been the groom’s best friend for over 20 years. From catching butterflies as kids to playing football, basketball, and baseball together, their bond has only grown stronger with time. Greg has always been like an older brother—someone to look up to, count on, and share life’s biggest moments with. The groom is honored to have Greg standing beside him on this special day.
Julia O'Connor
Bridesmaid
Julia has been one of the bride's best friends for the past decade, and in that time, she has become such a constant and meaningful part of her life. Whether it was sharing laughs, navigating life’s twists and turns, or simply being there when it matters most, Julia has always shown up. The bride is so grateful to have her by her side as they get to celebrate this next chapter together.
Patrick Aini
Groomsman
Patrick, the best man’s younger brother, has been a close friend of the groom for years. Even though he was too young to drink, Patrick never missed a chance to visit at college—often showing up ready to cause some late-night ruckus. They’ve shared hunting trips and plenty of nights that tested Matt’s ability to make it to work the next day. Patrick’s energy and loyalty have made him an important part of the crew, and the groom is glad to have him standing by his side.
Jared Marden
Groomsman
Jared has been part of our lives for four years now as the maid of honor’s boyfriend, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better match for the groom’s sister. From the start, he’s brought kindness, humor, and a genuine warmth that everyone appreciates. We shared an unforgettable trip to Mexico together, and our dogs absolutely adore him—which pretty much says it all! We’re so happy to have him here celebrating with us on this special day.
