Wedding Party

Meet our family and friends who are walking down the aisle with us.

Andrea Austin

Matron of Honor

The bride's cousin. Her Andy Pandy. More like the big sister she never had. From growing up across the street and babysitting to taking her on dates with her now husband (hi Paul), Danielle and Andrea have always been close. She is always down to be her concert buddy...being dragged to Taylor Swift, Carrie Underwood, and even Harry Styles. There is no better option for MOH than Andrea! And no one who has Danielle's back more.


Lauren Fernandes

Bridesmaid

From days watching the Bachelor, and telling everyone that Jack could have fit on the door, to alumni dance recitals, Lauren and Danielle have been through it all! Just ask them about their days watching Teen Wolf. Who would have thought that opting to take dance instead of gym in 2009 would lead to a life long friendship. Danielle couldn't imagine her wedding day without Lauren standing by her side.

Tina Cherrillo

Bridesmaid

Thanks to Lauren, Danielle and Tina met in high school and became fast friends! (They can also thank PLL for that.) Both have a love for the show Survivor and their friendship has been proven to survive the tests of time. Her sense of humor and love for games is unmatched. So who better to have stand by Danielle's side on the biggest game day of her life than Tina.


Jenn Gallotta

Bridesmaid

Jenn, better known to most as grandma, was one of the first friends Danielle made her freshman year of college. No schools or states, or Grey's Anatomy deaths, could keep these two apart. With a snapchat streak spanning over 6 years, these two were destined to be lifelong friends. Danielle got to stand by Jenn's side when she got married in 2021 and she couldn't imagine her big day without Jenn.

Kait Pietanza

Bridesmaid

When Shawn and Danielle first met he told her "my friends are your friends now." And that rang very true for Kait. With a unique bond, Kait and Danielle became quick friends. Just ask them how often they turn on the TV on Friday nights. The best wine buddy and apple cider mimosa maker around! As she cannot imagine her life without Kait in it, Danielle can also not imagine her wedding day without Kait by her side.


Karli Nagy

Bridesmaid

There has always been a special connection between Danielle and Karli. From their first tequila shot they knew they would be the kind of friends you are not going to want to let go of. Danielle and Karli bonded over music and tv shows, and that fact that Karli some how knew Danielle's boss. There was no doubt in her mind that Karli would have a place standing beside Danielle as she walks down the aisle.

Brian Hillas

Best Man

Shawn's youngest brother and best man, they've had plenty of battles and fun. Like Tom with Shawn, Brian was a thorn in his side until he got older and realized he’s the best built in best friend of all time. He is always down for anything, from playing video games to watching late night UFC fights. He couldn't imagine anyone else standing by his side as his Best Man.


Tom Hillas

Groomsman

The grooms oldest brother...and the best older brother of all time. Even though Shawn was probably the biggest thorn in his side being 10 years younger than Tom, always tagging along with him wherever he went. As much has he might have hated it, Shawn always treasured those sledding trips, random rides, roller blading to the gas station, and let's not forget Sundays at Miami Mikes for the memorable Giants season and Super Bowl win. Thnks for the mems.

Chuck Betz

Groomsman

Chuck, Charles, or Charlie, you can call him whatever you want. But to the Bride, he is known as little brother. He may have pushed her down the stairs and she may have told him to stop breathing, but the older they got the closer they became. Chuck and Shawn quickly bonded over their love for sports, specifically the Yankees. And if you ever need to know Shawn's real age don't ask Chuck...he will always say that Shawn is 70.


JP Dougherty

Groomsman

JP is one of Shawn's longest standing friends. Even time and the distance between schools or college didn’t stop them from staying close. Both making time to see each other on their off weeks from school, Shawn and JP always knew how to prioritize their friendship. St. Patties and OBs in Rhode Island will always have their hearts.

Anthony Pietanza

Groomsman

Shawn and Anthony, better known to their friends as Hillas and Pie, first met randomly outside the W at Willy P when he called Shawn Ryan Scheckler. And their friendship has grown since then...from late night shenanigans being suit mates in college to standing by each others sides at their weddings. These two have a close bond you can never break.


Cody Nagy

Groomsman

Shawn met Cody by chance after getting asked to play softball with Pie. And little did they know they would become so close and have an amazing connection (that would even make Pie a little jealous at times). But to be fair, no one could have the same cheese ball toss connection Shawn and Cody have.

Peter McGuire

Junior Groomsman

Brother of the Bride. Peter was born the day before Danielle's 13th birthday, becoming her own little baby. Now towering over her, Peter might not be little anymore, but he'll always be Danielle's baby. And how lucky is he to be gaining Shawn...not only a brother-in-law but ride home whenever he needs it.


Harleigh Hillas

Junior Bridesmaid

Niece of the Groom. This spitfire 12-year-old stole the heart of Danielle the moment she met her. And she was only 7. Not only Shawn's niece but his god daughter, Danielle and Shawn's wedding day would not be complete without Harleigh standing by their sides.

Sofia Romanelli

Junior Bridesmaid

Cousin of the Bride The first "little" cousin born into the Romanelli clan, Sofia has always been someone special. From day one Danielle and Sofia have been close, despite their 17 year age difference. Their wedding day just wouldn't be complete without Sofia.


Ava Chiarolanzio

Flower Girl

Cousin of the Bride. Little miss sassy pants is the life of the party. She loves everything pink, sparkly, and (like the bride) Taylor Swift. No one is more excited for Ava to be a flower girl than Ava. She loves her Sissy and is taking her job as flower girl very seriously, already saying that she will help little sister Olivia down the aisle.

Olivia Chiarolanzio

Flower Girl

Cousin of the Bride. Little Livy is the cutest monster you will ever meet. Her love of cookies and playing with her sister makes everyone's faces light up. Livy will make the perfect partner in crime for Ava as they make their way down the aisle to watch their Sissy marry Uncle Shawny.


Brody Austin

Ring Bearer

Cousin of the Bride. Little Brodster, son of the MOH, was a no brainer when Danielle and Shawn (Sissy and Uncle Shawny) were thinking about ring bearers. Without fail, Brody will always run up to Uncle Shawny first whenever they see each other. Their special day wouldn't be the same without Brody by their sides.

Thomas Hillas

Ring Bearer

Nephew of the Groom. Thomas, Tommy, or Trip, this little man lights up the room no matter what name you decided to call him that day. Uncle Dookie will always be jealous that Thomas runs to Dan-E-L first whenever they see him. This 7-year-old fire cracker is always a showstopper. No doubt he will light up the aisle as he walks down it.
