Wedding Party
Elana Sanguigni
Maid of Honor
Elana, my younger sister and Maid of Honor, has been my best friend for as long as I can remember. Growing up together, we’ve shared countless memories filled with laughter, love, and our own unique sisterly bond. From spontaneous adventures and shopping sprees to baking sessions that fill the house with delicious smells, we’ve always found joy in the little things we do together. She’s not only my sister but also my confidant and biggest supporter, always ready with advice, encouragement, or just a good laugh when I need it most. Her creativity, humor, and heart of gold make her the perfect person to stand by my side on this special day, and I’m so lucky to share this unforgettable moment with her.
Calla Puchak
Bridesmaid
Calla, the groom’s younger sister, has always been a source of love, laughter, and unwavering support. Her warm and caring nature has made her an irreplaceable part of our lives, and I’m so grateful to call her family. I’m incredibly lucky to have gained not just a sister-in-law, but a wonderful friend who has brought so much joy to our journey together. I’m honored to have her by my side to celebrate this special day and all the moments to come.
Elizabeth Hartman
Bridesmaid
Elizabeth and I met three years ago through our fiancés, who have been best friends since childhood. From the moment we connected, it was clear we shared so much in common, including a passion for teaching and a love for meaningful conversations. Over time, our bond grew stronger, as we supported each other through life’s ups and downs and shared countless laughs along the way. Elizabeth’s kindness, thoughtfulness, and genuine heart make her an incredible friend, and I feel so lucky to have her in my life. I’m beyond grateful to have her standing by my side and to share this beautiful day with someone who has become such an important part of my journey.
Chelsea Snyder
Bridesmaid
Chelsea and I have a more recent friendship, and we quickly connected over our shared interests, vibrant personalities, and the stories we’ve exchanged about our lives. Living just 20 minutes apart has made it easy for our friendship to grow, with many lowkey movie nights, baking sessions, and outings to grab drinks at a local spot. Chelsea’s warmth and fun-loving spirit have been such a joy to have in my life, and I’m so excited to have her by my side to share in this special day and all the memories we’ll continue to create together.
Ryan Sevic
Best Man
Ryan S and Ryan P met in Pre-Kindergarten and have been best friends ever since. From the days on the same 'biddy ball' team and then as little league baseball rivals, up through middle and high school, then off to Penn State Behrend Lawrence Hall as Freshman roommates, to the long days landscaping together from dawn to dusk (sometimes using the truck lights to see what they were doing), they have been inseparable ever since. They have seen just about everything together. Ryan couldn't imagine his day without the other Ryan by his side.
Sam Olearchick
Groomsman
Sam (Sammo) and Ryan met in Elementary school as buddies in 3rd grade and were playing together on the baseball diamond soon after that. They soon became sand trap saviors out on the golf course and went to the Flagship City of Erie together at Penn State Behrend. There they rooted on all the Steeler wins and losses and walked up the hill into the wind both ways to and from class. They have been inseparable 'Yinzer' friends ever since.
Mitchell Eberle
Groomsman
Mitchell and Ryan met as part of the 'Behrend Squad' up in the Gem City of Erie, PA. There the Lower Burrell and Oil City guys bonded over the many great aspects and weather of Penn State Behrend, Plymouth tavern, and love for football. Mitchell and Ryan enjoyed going to the same senior capstone design class where they would always recall the fun times collaborating with their favorite professors. Ryan and the crew had fun banter with Mitchell's beloved Rams and Mitchell would return the favor in return on the many dreaded Steeler playoff losses. Mitchell and Ryan have been friends ever since and he greatly values their friendship.
Josh Gavin
Groomsman
Josh and Ryan met in 'Dreary Erie' as friends together in the Oil City and Lower Burrell squad. Josh and Ryan watched at Behrend as the Pirates made their only playoff push in their lifetimes and likely anytime soon. They have bonded as part of the group on the 'guys' trip to MB and at many Pirates opening days since. Ryan has valued Josh's friendship and is excited to have him as part of his big day.
