Toni & Brian

Wedding Party

Shannon Costa

Matron of Honor

Shannon is Toni’s older sister and someone she has always looked up to. Toni feels incredibly grateful to have Shannon not only as a sister but also as a best friend and confidant. This past July, Toni had the honor of being Shannon’s bridesmaid at her beautiful wedding.

Adam Sowder

Best Man

Adam is Brian’s younger brother, though their close bond makes the five-year age gap almost unnoticeable. They’ve been inseparable since childhood, with Adam even following in Brian’s footsteps by attending Longwood University. Recently, Adam relocated to Virginia Beach, and we couldn’t be more thrilled to have him nearby.

Ali Moore

Maid of Honor

Ali is Toni’s younger sister and has always looked up to her. While Toni didn’t always love this growing up, she now cherishes having Ali as her sister, best friend, and “little twinny.” Following in Toni’s footsteps, Ali became a Licensed Practical Nurse, and Toni couldn’t be prouder of the amazing person her sister has become.

Steven Jankauskas

Groomsman

Brian met Steven in 2006 while touring Longwood University. Somehow, they both got separated from the group and ended up trying to follow each other to figure out where to go. The mishap sparked a conversation, and by the end of the day, they decided to be roommates for freshman year. They’ve been close friends ever since.

Alex Wagner

Bridesmaid

Alex is Toni’s childhood best friend, and their bond has remained unshakable since they were 9 years old. Despite living many miles apart over the years, they’ve always stayed in touch, knowing they’re just a phone call away. Through thick and thin, their connection never wavers. To Alex, Toni is the sister she never had.

Johnny Hennessey

Groomsman

Johnny and Brian have been friends since elementary school, bonding through organized sports. They both attended Longwood University, where they were roommates. They also lived together in the Outer Banks for a summer after graduation and created unforgettable memories together.

Marissa Sweeney

Bridesmaid

Marissa and Toni first met years ago while working together at Sheetz. Although it took some time for them to warm up to each other, they eventually became lifelong friends. Over the years, they’ve even shared a home three times and have always cherished their special bond. Fun fact: Marissa was there the night Brian and Toni first met and even had the honor of witnessing their playful “first marriage”!

Rick Mustian

Groomsman

Rick has been one of Brian’s closest friends since high school, quickly earning the title of “the mischievous son Brian’s dad never had” (much to everyone’s amusement). Despite attending colleges hours apart, they stayed in touch and have remained great friends over the years.

Amanda Kennedy

Bridesmaid

Toni met Amanda through Brian, and they clicked instantly. Since that day, they’ve formed a rare and special friendship. They know they can talk to each other about anything. Toni feels like Amanda has been her best friend forever and knows she has found a true, lifelong friend in her.

Kyle Lowe

Groomsman

Kyle is Brian’s younger cousin, but their bond has always been more like that of brothers. Despite Kyle’s demanding football schedule at Virginia Tech, they always find time to connect and stay close.
