Maid of Honor
Sarah is my best friend in the whole world. Aside from Tony, she is the first person I think to share any kind of news with. We spent the greater part of our childhood making music videos, getting ready for formal dances, and talking late into the night about our hopes and our dreams. I’m honored after all these years to still have Sarah by my side, especially now that I’m trading in a prom dress for a white bridal gown. She is the maid of honor brides dream about!!
Bridesmaid
Kate, or “Thibby” as I most often call her is the kindest and most genuine human on Earth. She and I have been friends since our early travel basketball days, and have the fortune to be even closer in our adult days. I can’t imagine marrying the man of my dreams without Thibby standing there by my side for the ceremony, and dancing the night away celebrating at the reception!!
Bridesmaid
Kelsey is my one and only, baby sister. She and I are Irish Twins, 13 months apart, and she knows me better than anybody! Kelsey always makes me laugh when I least want to. She also brought my beautiful niece Lillian into this world, and opened me up to an unconditional love I didn't even know existed. Lillian will be a big part of our day as well playing the role of "ring bearer."
Bridesmaid
Laura, or “LP,” was my very first friend at Wheaton College. As nerdy freshmen basketball players, we quickly bonded over our love of delicious food, witty banter, and musical TV shows. Laura and her parents Mike and Nancy are the family members I gained as part of my Wheaton community. Even though she jokingly said "I'll think about it" when I asked her to be in the wedding, our friendship is a lifelong one and I wouldn't be celebrating this love without her.
Bridesmaid
Becca is my little, the basketball sister I gained at Wheaton when Coach tasked me set a good example. She has the biggest, most competitive heart and she loves life, and her pursuits in life so hard. We have been there for each other for all of the big and small things in life, and she has taught me so much about pursuing the things that make you happy. I am so lucky to have gained such a wonderful and outspoken friend, and I can't imagine celebrating a life with Tony, without her!
Bridesmaid
Delaney is a childhood friend that became my sister. In some great turn of fortune, she began dating my older brother Shawn and over the course of the last 10 years, she has become a source of inspiration and serenity for me. This adult life is sometimes really tricky to navigate, and I'm so grateful for Delaney (and my brother) for always being there for me without judgement or question and for always making life 1,000 times more fun. I'm so thrilled to have Delaney beside me while Tony and I start our lives together.
Bridesmaid
Caitlynn, or “Catalina”, is Anthony's cousin. Whenever we spend time together, we are having a blast, laughing at family dinners, laying by the pool, and dancing in the Old Port. There isn’t a more vibrant and wonderful person to spend your time with. It's a huge added bonus that she can share embarrassing stories and pictures of a young Anthony, but really I'm just blessed to gain such a wonderful friend and family member. We can't have a party and celebrate our love with our Catalina there!
Bridesmaid
Kayla and I have been friends since our mid-college years, sending each other letters and packages across many boarders since the start. She has helped me through many boy and life problems, and she stuck by me when I knew Tony was the one, back in college. In my adult life, whenever I face a problem, I think to myself "What would Kayla do/what would Kayla say" and I feel it helps me make a more intelligent and rational decision. I am so blessed to have my Kayla with me as I marry the man of my dreams!
First Lady
Ashland is my friend soulmate! We met working at the Center for Autism and Developmental Disorders, and I have not clicked with someone so quickly and so easily as I did with Ashland back in 2016. We share endless laughs, delicious foods, heart to hearts that always make me feel better, and the honesty to keep each other being the best we can be. In her role as my “First Lady” she will be my consult on all things locally, my hair trials, gown fittings, & anything wedding related that I need her for. On the day of the wedding she will be my personal assistant, and in charge of keeping me calm and cool while I prepare to marry my best friend! I’m so glad to have Ashland and her fiancée Kyle as part of our big day!
Best Man
Matthew is Anthony's older brother and he has always been the coolest and most down to earth guy in the room. Seeing Matthew and Anthony together, golfing, dancing, and playing, is one of my greatest joys in life! These two love each other so much, and they’re always having a blast in this life. I’m so fortunate to gain another wonderful brother (and sister!!) and our day wouldn’t be the same without Matty as the Best Man!
Groomsman
Nick is one of Anthony's oldest childhood friends, and he was the first of Anthony’s childhood friends that I met when we started dating. Deering has always made me feel welcome and special, and he has the biggest heart that loves so huge. We are fortunate to have Deering sharing our home with us as the tenant in our in-law apartment. We share dinners, laughs, and endless fun & games while we enjoy Westbrook.
Groomsman
Rocco is another of Anthony's oldest and best childhood friends. He and his family, and Tori & Brutus are positive and supportive influences in our lives; helping us move in, camp trips, double-dates, and with Rocco’s (and Cam and Kapo’s) influence, Anthony is able to spend a great deal of time on the golf course. Rocco and Tori are a huge part of our big day!!
Groomsman
James, or “Kapo” as he's more often referred to, is one of the kindest and most wonderful humans in our lives. He and his wife Sabina are two key members in the celebration of our big day. Kapo is another guy that makes sure Anthony gets his rounds in.
Groomsman
Ryan, “Clair,” is one of Anthony’s teammates and roommates from college. He is part of the crew that visits every year to celebrate Anthony’s birthday. From college days spent in the town houses to house parties in Westbrook, we can’t have a party and we can’t celebrate our love without Clair!!!
Groomsman
Nick is one of Anthony’s best friends from college. He has been here for us throughout our relationship, and especially when we're hitting big milestones like buying a house and wedding planning! We are blessed to have Nick as part of our big day.
Groomsman
Cam is another of Anthony's childhood friends! Fun fact, Anthony and Cam went to Springer's Jeweler's on some sneaky boys dates to pick me out THE most beautiful ring. Cam is 1/3 of the crew that keeps Anthony happy golfing every year. We’re so fortunate to have Cam as part of our big day!!
Groomsman
Shawn is my older brother. In addition to walking me down the aisle and passing me off from one Buddha to the next, he is also part of Anthony's party. Shawn was my zen before I met Anthony and he has always been the most positive and reassuring support for me. Shawn, (aka “Bubba,”) and Delaney are one of our all time favorite couples to double-date with, so celebrating with them as part of our big day was a no-brainer!!
Ring Bearer
Lillian is my niece!! We wanted to be able to include all of our tiny humans in the wedding, so while Stella and Greta take on the role of flower girls, Lillian will be our non-traditional ring bearer. 😊
Flower Girl
Stella is one of Anthony’s cousin’s, and one of the most outgoing and intelligent humans I’ve ever met. In our early days together, she always referred to me as “girl!” Since then we’ve spent many days playing in the pool, styling each other’s hair, playing school, collecting mail, cleaning up meals at Grams, and laughing our butts off at each other’s silly ways. When “Uncle Ant” and I mentioned to Stell that we’d like her to be one of our flower girls, she shrugged her shoulders and said “sure!” Stella is like another sister to me, and our day wouldn’t be the same without her bright and loving personality. She’s carried out this job before, and we know she’ll rock it again!!
Flower Girl
Greta, or “GG” is the other half to our flower girl package!! Similar to Stella, this is a job she’s taken on before, but since then she’s had a LOT more practice performing for a crowd ;). G is the spunkiest most compassionate little human with unparalleled dance moves. When asked by “Uncle Ant” if she’d like to be a flower girl again, she said “Will I get my hair done and wear a new dress?” She is the sassy little spirit animal I never knew I needed. Anthony and I are SO happy to have both Stella and Greta to celebrate our day with us in their special roles as flower girls!!
