Patricia Montagnino
Mother of the Bride
It's pretty honest to say that without my Momma, I wouldn't be here today. But, she is so much more than my Mom; she's my rock, my role model, my hero and the most wonderful woman in my life. She would kill me if she understood that this website was actually "online" so keep it under hush for now.
Ross Rampy
Father of the Bride
Ross, or as everyone knows as "Rossy", has been a pivotal part of my life since day one. He's supported me throughout everything I did, especially all the long, very very long, bowling weekends. I'm very grateful for his support and love and this special day wouldn't be what it is without his and my Mom's help.
Vincent Montagnino
Father of the Bride
Dad has helped shape me into the person I am today; learning a lot about what it means to be a hard worker. I always appreciated his support and the opportunities we have to spend together on the beaches of California.
Vickie Potter
Mother of the Groom
My Mom exemplifies internal strength. She has always been the center of what kept my sister and I going in the right direction growing up.
Sam Potter
Father of the Groom
Daddy (better known as Pappy Potter to us all), a jack of all trades, master of none. Can and will do what others say can't be done. I like to think he instilled just enough of that in me to help me in life.
