Amy & Nick
Wedding Party
Kristina DiGaetano
Maid of Honor
Kristina & Amy met freshman year at Elizabethtown college. It didn’t take long to realize it was love at first sight (approximately 2 weeks). We went on to be roomies throughout our time in college & well now, here we are. From late night study sessions to enjoying warm delights. No distance, no matter how near or far, can keep us apart.
Andy Puciaty
Best Man
My brother Nick and I are unlike the other members of the wedding party mentioned on this website. At the beginning we were not friends by choice, a consequence of family. I was told that during Nick’s first few weeks at home, I wanted to return him to the hospital. Over the years our relationship evolved from an apparent feeling of contempt to truly great friends. The turning point came about in college after nick turned 21 (read: later on in his high school years). As it turns out, he is a machine behind the ping pong table - both with beer and without. Somehow Amy has managed to tame my brother, who has been known to smash TVs off of roofs and beer cans against his forehead. Congratulations to both you. I couldn’t be happier for you guys and can’t wait to be there in support of you two.
Chantalle Arsenault
Bridesmaid
Chantalle and Amy have been friends since elementary school. Their friendship grew with cheerleading, neighborhood strolls, sleepless sleepovers, puddle jumping, and overall random adventures. Sharing a love for Olsen twin movies, they could often be found pretending to be sisters on any occasion. Chantalle lives with her husband, Alex, and their son, Byron, in Boothbay, Maine.
Steven Burris
Groomsman
In the spring of 2009, Nick and Steven both decided to take an English class over the coming summer. When they entered the classroom, they found desks arranged in a semicircle and a greenhorn professor. A few days into the class, they went to Subway for lunch and ended up hanging out for the rest of the afternoon. They may not have learned much over the course of the class, but they each discovered a lifelong friend.
Kelsey Cote
Bridesmaid
Kelsey and Amy met in third grade, and haven’t stopped laughing since (which the Morins can attest to due to the many late nights turned early mornings the two friends kept their household awake with giggles while growing up). From rapping the most popular songs of the early 2000’s in their trusty Ford Focuses to now, the laughs just keep on going. Kelsey couldn’t be happier that Amy and Nick found each other (and bonus points for Nick - the couple just so happened to meet on Kelsey’s birthday!). :)
Taylor Engel
Groomsman
Taylor and Nick truly became friends over pitchers of margaritas at Fuel. All of their other friends were out of town so they were forced to hang out. Turns out after many nights of drinking heavily, crying, and ping pong they were meant to be. So now they're here. Hopefully Nick doesn't fall over the handlebars or try to get Taylor naked again.
Kate DeAngelis
Bridesmaid
Kate and Amy met in 7th grade French class. While the language may not have stuck, their friendship grew over a passion for travel and adventure. They went from singing Aaron Carter in watercolor class, painting sunsets, to sitting on the beach in the Philippines witnessing those dreamy sunsets in person. Their most recent adventure included a 4-shop-stop tour de donut. Now that Kate doesn’t have to stress eat alone while keeping the secret of the ring Nick hid in his sock drawer, she looks forward to more shared yummy adventures ahead. Kate lives in Poughkeepsie, NY where she eats cannolis alone while finishing up PA school.
Eric Morin
Groomsman
Eric first met Nick after being obligated to wait for a delayed flight and pick up a stranger in the airport. Eric was standing in the arrivals area not knowing who he was looking for, when along came Nick and his infamous bear hugs. Following this first meet and greet, there have been a number of ping pong and corn hole tournaments, and Eric has always taken it easy on Nick. Though, with officially becoming brother-in-laws, Eric will now show no mercy. Eric is excited to finally have a brother to continue sharing beers with and dominating in each game they choose to play.
Stephanie Gagne
Bridesmaid
It is said that Amy and Stephanie were each others’ best friends since the beginning of time. From the early days of kindergarten throughout their seven years at Farwell, they could be found making up ridiculous songs on the school bus, sneaking out early to the recess swings, freezing together at their brothers’ hockey games, or spending multiple nights in a row sleeping over each other’s’ house. Amy and Steph survived middle school together (despite being extremely awkward human beings) and went on to successfully crush high school. Stephanie is now a part time nurse and full time mom of two little boys. This wedding fulfills half of the long ago made promise to one day be each other’s bridesmaids, and Steph couldn’t be more happy to see Amy marry her Prince Charming!
Freeman Myrick
Groomsman
Freeman and Nick bonded over a beer pong game that went through 8 overtimes and culminated in an inevitable victory. Nick and Freeman simply nodded and grunted in an unspoken affirmation that conveyed “Yes indeed we are now friends good sir”. After they had established that both were masculine manly men they began to embark upon many quests and activities together. From activities such as ping pong, Super Smash Bros, and trying all the flavors of beer to gallant quests such as trying to get Taylor naked while driving across the country. As the nature of time ebbs and flows only three things will remain constant. Nick will beat Freeman in ping pong. Freeman will beat Nick in pool. And they will remain friends through the eventual heat death of the universe.
Audrey Patterson
Bridesmaid
Amy and Audrey met at daycare at 5 years old. Their friendship stems from Gullah Gullah island and singing La Bouche while swinging in the back yard. Their impeccable taste for 90s top hits kept the car rides BUMPIN! 2 and a half decades of friendship down and many more to go.
Jason Wilson
Groomsman/Officiant
Nick and Jason met on a weekend during their Junior year in Charleston. It didnt take long for Nick to grab Jason by the shirt collar, finish his beer and invite him to play drinking games. Jason was truly honored. From that moment on Jason was convinced this guy was a champion. Nick also had a ring he'd carry everywhere that literally said "2009 champs" on the thing. Nick and Jason lived together for the next 5 year, putting them just shy of a domestic partnership. He couldn't be more happy for Nick and Amy.
Allyson Clary
Bridesmaid
Amy’s brother, Eric, introduced her to his girlfriend (now fiancée,) Allyson, several years ago. Amy has been slowly convincing her soon to be sister in law to move to Charleston, and it is slowly working!!! Al is the little sister, Amy never had, but always wanted!
Ashley Puciaty
Bridesmaid
Amy first met Ashley at her and Andy’s rehearsal dinner. Little did she know that being Nick’s date to Ashley and Andy’s wedding would be the first time she met her future sister in law! Amy is so excited to be a part of the Puciaty family and gain Ashley as a sister!
