Wedding Party

Nicole Considine

Bride

To know Nicole is to love her. How can you not?! She's one of the most outgoing, feistiest, funniest, caring, and loving people i'm sure everyone can attest to knowing. Basically, a spitting image of her mother. Nicole didn't have the easiest or the best life, but Nicole always made the best of it and always tried to see the brighter side of things. Thus, making her who she is today. Nicole enjoys country music, Zumba with her favorite instructor, working, (believe it or not) cleaning, cooking, writing, laughing, and spending time with her family and friends. Nicole is a cat and dog mom and loves animals. Nicole also loves makeup and doing makeup on other people. Nicole is a fighter and a survivor. There are no words to completely describe who she is. She's just Nicole.

Alexander Sharan

Groom

As Urban Dictionary would put it: "Alexander is a truly amazing guy who you can talk to about anything. He is usually really sweet and caring. You're either his friend, his best friend, or you love him to pieces." This could not be any more accurate. Alexander is a genuine person who would give the shirt off his back for anyone that he loves and cares about. Alexander is extremely hard working, very goal orientated, and will stop at nothing to make sure he gets where he wants to be in life. Alexander enjoys going to country concerts, sleeping, late night runs to Denny's, working and being his own boss, and spending time with his family and his friends. Alexander is one of a kind, and anyone who knows him should consider themself lucky.

Carol Fiori

Mother of the Bride

Carol left this world to be with the lord on July 29th, 2013. Carol, very bravely battled a short run with cancer that ultimately took her life. Before she passed, Nicole promised her one thing: that she would be okay. Although Nicole has her days where it still stings like it happened yesterday, Nicole does her best to smile through the tears and pain because she knows that's what her mother would want. It's important to Nicole that everyone knows that Carol was feisty but she was kind. Carol was extremely hardworking and goal driven. Carol was stubborn (god was she stubborn) but so loving. Carol made mistakes like any other human but always asked for forgiveness. Although she isn't physically here, she will always be with us in spirit. RIP Carol 8/7/61 - 7/29/13

Glenn Considine

Father of the Bride

Glenn and Nicole haven't always had the easiest relationship. In fact, they butt heads often, disagree on a lot, and argue about everything. However, there is one thing that has never changed. The love that he has for "his little girl." Despite all the life struggles both have faced, Glenn and Nicole both know that they are only one call away from each other. Nicole thanks her father for continuing to stay sober and continuing to work on himself. Nicole looks forward to continuing growing her relationship with Glenn and she's excited to see what the future holds.

Phylis Aderhold

Aunt of the Bride

Phylis is Nicole's Aunt who is more like a mother to her. Ever since Nicole was born, the bond that they share is one for the books. Nicole looks up to Phylis in so many ways. Phylis is truly Nicole's hero, and aspires to be half the woman that Phylis is one day. Phylis has always been there to support, encourage, push, and "believe" in her. When Nicole was growing up, Nicole found a love and passion for dance and theater. Phylis was the one that encouraged her to participate and drove her to rehearsal day in and day out, and was always in the front row to cheer her on. There is not enough words in the world to describe the love Nicole has for this woman, but when Carol died, it was never about stepping up - Phylis always been her "mom."

Jerry Aderhold

Uncle of the Bride

Jerry is the husband of Phylis, the Aunt of the Bride. He also played an important role in Nicole's life. Jerry taught Nicole everything she knows about what a good father should be and what a good father does for his children. Jerry spent his whole life running into fires and saving people, and when Nicole's life went up in flames, he was there to put the fire out and save her as well. Not too many people can say their Uncle is their hero, but Nicole is beyond lucky and blessed to be able to call 'her Uncle Jerry' that. Jerry and Phylis have opened up their hearts and home to Nicole on more than one occasion, and never asked for anything in return. Nicole will live with lifelong gratitude and appreciation for Jerry, and Nicole only hopes that Jerry knows just how much she loves him!

Justin Sharan

Best Man

Justin is the brother of the Groom. Justin is Alec's big brother and as a big brother he did a great job of taking the blame for everything that Alec did and accused Justin of doing. Justin no matter what always stressed that he accepted and is there for Alec and went the extra mile to make sure he always knows that. Even when Alec was crying in his room Justin came in and put music on his iPod to help calm Alec down to help him sleep. Justin is the fun one that could sit down in a room full of strangers and some how he would make all of them them laugh till their face hurt. Justin kept calm even when his little brother would erase his saved video game and took his "cool bullet proof car that you only get one time in the game" (*Eye roll*) and replaced it with a super cool BLUE bus.
