Wedding Party
Catie
Bride
Catie is a science-loving, dog-obsessed bride who works in a compounding pharmacy. She met Nico in college thanks to a twist of fate (and a group project), and they've been building a beautiful life together ever since. Catie is most excited to celebrate their love surrounded by family, friends, and plenty of delicious food.
Nico
Groom
Nico is an outgoing, driven guy who works in finance and never skips a good workout. He met Catie in college and was lucky enough to turn a chance introduction into a forever kind of love. Nico is most excited to celebrate their big day with all the people who’ve supported them—and to finally call Catie his wife.
Raigan
Maid of Honor
Howdy there! I’m Raigan (MOH/Rag to most) I’m best friends with Catie! We have been hip and hip since 3rd grade, and even lived together for quite a few years!
Jacob
Best Man
I’m Nico’s younger brother and lifelong teammate, from backyard football to CSU-Pueblo. We’ve been swatted, hosted AFN fight nights, ran a full-blown protein smoothie shop, and occasionally flipped it into a late-night birria taqueria. I also co-starred in his cinematic masterpiece, Tito’s Trash Day. Honored to stand by him, this time not in costume or jersey.
Morgan
Matron of Honor
I am Catie's older sister and I'm 8 years older than her! Despite our age difference and our polar opposite personalities we always have the best time together!
Dominic
Best Man
I’m the youngest of the three Albertini brothers, undefeated in AFN, and honored to be Nico’s best man. I’ve always looked up to him, whether we were training during the summer, cooking at home, or having the kind of talks people like to call “conspiracies.” We’ve made a lot of memories, from TP jobs that felt like special operations, with coordinated attacks, wild escapes, and creative touches, like repositioning two front-yard reindeer into something a little less family-friendly. We were never caught, and if anyone asks, we know nothing. Nico’s been an incredible example in my life, and I’ve learned more from him than I can count. I’m proud to stand by him.
Kaylee
Bridesmaid
Catie and I met in college and we struggled through o-chem, chem club drama and research symposiums together. I think we're trauma bonded.
Brandon
Groomsman
Hi I’m Brandon- Nico’s handsomest & funniest friend (self-proclaimed, but no one’s denying it). We’ve been best friends since 2014, and as a founding member of AFN, some of my favorite memories were made in the YL and the Dirty P… especially the classic Tito trash night videos.
Kaiya
Bridesmaid
I’ve known Catie for most of my life, she is my cousin Raigan’s best friend. Catie has always been a role model to me growing up. She is basically like the older sister I never had ❣️
Conner
Groomsman
I’ve known Nico for almost 20 years, which is roughly 7,000 days of questionable life choices. We can recite the entire Austin Powers movie from memory, we once filmed a short film together called ‘Tito the Trash Man’ (which we submitted for the Golden Garbage Can Award for Outstanding Achievement in Backyard Filmmaking), and we’re both pretty sure we’re lactose intolerant but refuse to get tested. RIP toilets everywhere. Nico has witnessed all this and more, yet still chose me as a groomsman. His judgment is clearly impaired.
Shelby
Bridesmaid
I met Catie 8 years ago when I first started dating her best friend’s, Raigan’s, brother. We quickly became close and are basically sister in laws! I remember when Catie first started dating Nico and now I’m so excited to watch them get married!
John
Groomsman
Hi, I’m John, Nico and I met almost 7 years ago now at football practice in Pueblo. Since then we’ve became close friends and even lived together at one point in pueblo. I’m so glad Nico and Catie found one another and can’t wait to celebrate their big day.
