Cassandra & Christian
Wedding Party
Amanda Greco
Maid of Honor
"I have known Cassie for the past 7 years! We met freshman year of college, we were in the same orientation group. Cassie, Chris, & I were in a group photo together, but didn't know each other too well at the time! I met Chris at Daemen when Chris & Cassie started dating. Cassie pointed out Chris in the dining hall. My favorite memory with Cassie is when we had the day off of school so we decided to eat 6 donuts in the car after we ordered pizza & Chinese food. We laughed & had the best day. My favorite memory with Chris is grabbing lunch at the dining hall every week since we were the only two who still ate on campus. Always had the best conversations catching up! My favorite memories with both of them is when I'd go to their apartment & hangout with Zoey & talk/laugh for hours."

Best Man
“I have known Chris since we were kids. I’m not sure if we met on the baseball diamond or at the hockey rink but we were always playing, watching, or talking about sports. We always have a blast when we go to Bills or Sabres games! When Chris introduced me to Cassie, it was obvious she would fit in well with our group. I feel like I’ve known her as long as I’ve known Chris. My favorite memory with them is of our wine tour of the Finger Lakes. The infamous Tony’s Diner incident will always be a favorite story to tell!”

“Cassandra has been in my life for the past 25 years. I remember when my Aunt told me she was going to have a baby & I was so excited to finally have a cousin! We share countless memories, but my favorite is our family trip to NJ when we went into NYC to sightsee and decided tequila little time with one too many margaritas. There were a lot of laughs & some tears shed that night, but it’s a night I always laugh about! That same year, Chris met our family on Mother’s Day. I immediately knew he was a wonderful & kind person by the way he interacted with my oldest son. Since Chris didn’t run away & stuck around after meeting everyone in our crazy family, I had a feeling he would be the one! Chris is already like family to us, but I’m looking forward to the day when it becomes official!”

“Chris & I met in the fall of 2011. I instantly knew we had something special the second we started talking & realized we would have multiple classes together. We cruised through the year mesmerized by the shortest person we ever saw. Chris suggested we go white water rafting together, as we froze ourselves silly during the coldest frost Ontario had ever seen in late May. As we graduated and grew, Chris decided he needed something more. I first met Cassie on a summer day, playing ding-dong-ditch as a goofy young man would do. She thought we were ridiculous but we didn't care. Cassie quickly became the Mom I never had, nursing me through countless nights that I would regret the next morning. What a wonderful and joyous time for both of them as we celebrate a lasting bond. Congrats guys!”

Bridesmaid
"Cassie and I met in PA school at Daemen. We are now coworkers in our dream job as OB/GYN PA-C's! I don't remember how I met Chris, but when I did, I knew they were meant for each other. My favorite memory with them as a couple was when they took me jet skiing for the first time. We really bonded after we hit rocks and needed her dad to rescue us! I am so happy to be a part of their special day!"
Ethan Harpst
Groomsman
“Chris and I first met at Daemen College in the dorm rooms. We started hanging out in a group of friends, playing cards against humanity, playing BS, and watching star wars. I quickly realized that I was going to get along great with Chris. But the real reason I'm friends with Chris is because he knows that A Haunted House is the greatest movie ever made. When Chris and Cassie first started talking I tried encouraging him to go out with her. I said something profound like "Chris go for it, she's hot!" I am happy that Chris went for it because I now realize that she is also smart, caring, and fun to be around. Can't wait to party with them on their big day!”

"Cassie and I actually first met when we were about 7 years old in gymnastics! Then a few years later when we were about 10 years old we reconnected in dance class and we have been close friends ever since! Some of favorite memories with Cassie would be going to Wilson every summer to go jet skiing and boating, going to the cottage in Fair Haven, and all of the camping trips she took with my family! Cassie was always the responsible mom of the group and took care of us throughout our high school days."

“I got to know Chris really well in PT school when I found out he was a genius. We would study together & by study I mean he would re-teach me the material that I remembered wrong. We would have study sessions at his apartment where I quickly became Zoey’s best friend & really got to know Cassie. Cassie & I quickly became friends. Cassie is always the life of the party & watching the two of them dance together is nothing but a spectacle everyone needs to see. My favorite memory is the last day of PT school when everyone came to my apartment & I got up to give a speech & in the middle of it Cassie got up to give her own speech & Chris tried pulling her down but she soldered on & gave a great speech herself. I’m very blessed to have met & made such good friends with Chris & Cassie.”
Madison Riddell
Bridesmaid
"Cassie and I met through dance class almost 15 years ago! Flash forward 10 or so years, I first met Chris on a double date with him, Cassie, and my now fiancé. I knew right away they were the perfect fit. There are far too many memories too count with Cassie growing up, but one of my favorites was our trip to NYC for her Sweet 16!"
Jared Liamos
Groomsman
“I met Chris in January 2016 when I went to Buffalo to meet Kelly’s family. I met Cassie in June 2016, during a Kyles family outing at Niagara Falls (Canadian side). My favorite memories of the couple are all the fun times we have together at family gatherings. Especially when we play games; such as pool beer pong, Cards Against Humanity, Telestrations, and What Do You Meme. I’m extremely excited and honored to be apart of their special day!”
Ellory Harpst

Cassie & I became friends shortly after she started dating Chris. I didn't even need to fully hang out with Cassie before I knew that she would be a great friend. I remember noticing how kind and selfless she was to her friends, Chris, and animals. The more time we spend together the more I love having her as a friend. Chris and I met freshman year of college. We had many shared classes & spent hours studying together. Chris has all of the greatest qualities of a friend & has been one of the most important people in my life over the last 6 years. Chris was initially apprehensive about talking to Cassie & said that she seemed disinterested. I told him that he needed to hangout with her & talk to her in person because then she’d see he is an absolute catch! And that's exactly what happened!

“I’m lucky to know Chris and Cassie through Chris’ sister. Soon he’ll be my brother-in-law and we can talk sports together forever. I really got to know Chris and Cassie during the Kyles family trips to the Outer Banks, North Carolina where we played games in the car, card games, and of course, drinking games! I can’t wait until September 24, 2022!”
Lauren Krotz
Bridesmaid
"I met Cassie in high school and we ended up at the same college for the same program then living in an apartment together a few short years later. We've had so many amazing memories, multiple vacations and girls trips, AND THEN Chris came along. I met Chris when he picked a group of us up after a long night of drinking and someone got sick in the car (not me I promise!). But that is when I learned what a kind, patient person Chris was and how amazing he would be for Cassie. I got to spend a lot of time with Cassie and Chris over the years and I really admire how sweet they are to each other. I am so excited for their big day!"

“I’m the favorite sister of the groom & have proof to back this up! I've known Chris & Cassie for many years now, obviously, & have loved watching their love for each other grow. One of my favorite memories of Cassie was when she realized "JC" stood for "Jesus Christ" on Easter Sunday. My favorite memories of Chris date back to when he was little, rollerblading around the house dressed as tinkerbell, popping holes in my inflatable furniture, & having meltdowns over broken granola bars. He is the most kind-hearted, genuine, & caring man I know. He has the patience of a saint, growing up with two older sisters. All of his training with Katie & I will make him a wonderful husband! I'm so excited to welcome Cassie into our family, knowing I will also be her favorite sister.”

“I’m so excited to have Cassie join the Kyles family! As one of Chris’ older sisters, I’m looking forward to having Cassie as a sister-in-law! Chris and Cassie compliment each other so well; I appreciate how Cassie joins our family members in poking fun at Chris together! Not only does Cassie fit in well, but so does their rescue dog, Zoey! We are counting down the days until Cassie is officially a Kyles!”

Officiant & Bridesmaid
"I've known Cassie for 5 years & Chris for a little over 6 years. I was first introduced to Chris a random day when the guys were hanging out (Sammy & Anthony) and I tagged along. I met Cassie when Chris finally brought Cassie to hangout with our friend group. I was so happy to have another girl in the group! Cass didn't know it yet, but I had already made up my mind that we were going to best friends. My favorite memory with the couple is wine touring around the Finger Lakes and being nervous that Chris was going to propose at any moment, but he wasn't going to tell us in advance. My favorite memory with Cassie is dancing on the back of a pedal tour bike as cars honked on the street".
