Wedding Party

Amanda Neale

Best Woman

What happens when your brother brings home a girlfriend who you want to steal and make your best friend? Well, you make her your best friend and your best woman at your wedding! Amanda has had such a huge impact on the Neale family since the moment she came into our lives. She's filled with spirit, thoughtfulness, opinions, dance moves and is the embodiment of a hype woman. Every person that knows Amanda knows if you put her in charge of something, it will not only get done, but it will be better than what you could ever imagine. We are so lucky to have her as our Best Woman and family for life. Chris looks forward to beating her, annually, in the Neale Family Thanksgiving Pool Tourney. Amanda is married to Ryan Neale (oldest bro) and mama to 2 precious kids: Miles (5) & Parker (3).

Bill McEnerney

Best Man

I will always remember the day Bill came up to me walking home from St. James. I had recently moved to the neighborhood and was in search of new friends. Fortunately, for me, I did not have to search very far. It was a cold, misty spring day and I was on my journey home from school when I crossed paths with a classmate. “Hi, I’m Bill!” from the guy in Birkenstocks (no matter the weather), a NY Islanders hat, and a big smile. Next thing you know I not only found a new friend, but a lifelong brother. Fast-forward 20 years. Bill and I are living .4 miles away from each other in Arlington Heights not far from where our adventure began. Amber & I look forward to 20 years of new memories with our new neighbors and friends. Bill is married to Michelle McEnerney and proud Dog-Dad to Sloane.

Sarah Duguid

Bridesmaid

Amber had no sisters, now she gets 2 amazing ones?! Sarah is the kind of person who instantly makes you feel at home. Welcoming, kind & constantly filling up your wine glass. Sarah has played such an important role throughout Chris' life and immediately welcomed Amber into the Duguid clan. She even guessed that Chris & Amber would end up together one day :) From helping Amber navigate an airport on crutches to navigating a new family - Sarah has always been there and will always be there, anytime, even if you call at 3am (because like we said - she's the best). Sarah is married to Stephen Duguid (Chris' stepbrother) and is mama to Oliva (3) & Ainsley (1).

Stephen Duguid

Groomsman

Being an only child, I always wondered what it would be like to have siblings. Then my mom married Matt and Steve became my “step-brother”. And while we may not be biological brothers our friendship goes beyond bloodlines. Steve is one of the most genuine, kind and trustworthy people I have ever met. He's there for me always. Whether it was looking for a place to crash after the Hawks won the cup or getting people together for March Madness (Go Flyers)—Steve has always put his friends and family first. I see that in him as a husband, father and for me a brother. Amber and I are so thankful to have you be a part of our wedding day and life together.

Parker Jean Neale

Flower Girl

This little love bug is filled with joy, happiness, and a whole lotta sass. Some people call her little Amber, so watch out on wedding day because she is a show stopper!

Olivia Duguid

Flower Girl

If you're looking to dance, find this little jelly bean and get ready to party! Olivia loves to spin in circles, giggle for days & be the big sister to our honorary flower girl, Ainsley <3

Miles Neale

Ring Bearer

Miles James Neale has never missed a party. He would rather be breakdancing in a basement than sleeping on Thanksgiving. He's the sweetest boy in all the land and we are so lucky to have him bring our rings down the aisle.

Bridget Budin

Flower Child

This 60 pound hound is our first born child and she may or may not make it on 9.26 - either way she's a flower child and gets a website shout out because we are helicopter parents.
