Crystal & Corey
Wedding Party
Molly Marnell
Maid of Honor
1/3 of Crystal's tri-force best friend super trio!! Molly's been Crystal's best friend since 8th grade and the two are so similar in their sense of humor and thought processes that they 100% of the time alienate everyone else who is around them when they're together! You can find them singing dumb songs, playing '5 girls 5 dresses' and probably making some sort of list. Xoxoxo
Brian Gallio
Best Man
The day 1 homie. Brian and Corey have shared basically everything; jobs, the stage, all kinds of road trips, but maybe more importantly they understand and appreciate the sheer brilliance of Colin Mochire and Ryan Stiles. They've been friends literally their entire lives. One time Brian almost dropped a piano on Corey, and even still, he is unquestionably the best man. Credits Include: Actor, Creator, Writer: Deep Swamp. Music Director: Twisted TV
Alyssa Fleck
Bridesmaid
The other 1/3 of the Tri-Force and numero uno bridesmaid! Alyssa's been Crystal's BFF since 6th grade, primarily because Alyssa saw Crystal in her 6th grade class and felt bad for the girl with the stringy ponytail and the body of a skeleton and befriended her out of pity. And she's been trapped in this pity friendship now for two decades! The two are brothers in crime and have always found themselves in the best situations together.. especially in the era when Alyssa had dreadlocks! Xoxoxo
Sean Peratikos
Groomsman
Sean can be described as a mathmagician, honestly sincere, a boy in the street, a barn stormer, whatsername, a *champion, but he's also one of the best dudes you'll ever meet, despite stealing a considerable amount of Snapple from Splashdown. When he's not accidentally cheating at games or creating his own rules, Sean enjoys a dope ass family in Nashville Tennessee.
Patrick Leber
Bridesman
Crystal's first best friend! Patrick grew up down the block from Crystal and the two have been dressing up and doing musical theater dance numbers together (literally anywhere and everywhere) since they were 3 years old! The two had a childhood pact that if they weren't married at 30 they would marry each other.. so chances are Patrick may object or simply just not show up to the wedding .. let's see what happens! xoxoxo
Nicki Rembisz
Groomswoman
Nicki is more than just a mom, a daughter, a student, a nurse, and a performer, she's more importantly, Corey's sister. Nicki's skills include: acting, singing, dancing, and throwing bomb-ass birthday parties for her kids. She's seriously a supermom. Her and her husband Jesse are currently crushing it with their 3 kids, Kylie, Keira, and Tristan.
Lauren Degasperis
Bridesmaid
Lauren is another of Crystal's lifelong besties from 6th grade! They've always been very different as people but there's no bigger cheerleader for Crystal than Lauren, and vice versa! They have matching tattoos (along with Crystal's mom) from an absurd trip to Vegas and let's not forget that bizarre year they lived in Philly together (or maybe we should forget it)... xoxoxo
John Van Tassel
Groomsman
John was Plattsburgh's number 1 newsman. John and Corey have been friends since high school, and despite being in the show 'Mame' together, they have 0 idea what it was about. Even though they knew it would be difficult, Corey, John, Sean and Jeff set out to set the world record for people playing Duck Duck Goose, and it didn't turn out great. Turns out it was difficult to achieve. Despite the failure, John knows that when everyone says it can't be done, Duck fly together.
Ashleigh Hocking
'Birdesmaid'
Ashleigh was Crystal's college soulmate. They met doing sketch comedy together and would spend countless nights by themselves drinking boxes of wine and eating Doritos and just being happy in each others' company (sounds cute but it's really just because no one else wanted to hang out with them). That spilled over into their 3 year roommate-ship in Astoria which resulted in one million laughs and a billion memories! xoxoxo.
Jeff DeChristopher
Groomsman
Corey and Jeff met in an elevator and have looked amusing standing next to each other since. Corey allowed Jeff to deliver pizza in Plattsburgh on TV. Jeff introduced Corey to a real American hero; Jack Bauer. But more importantly, Jeff taught us all that we can't be consumed by petty differences. We must unite in our common interests. With highs come lows and Corey and Jeff were in each others company for some truly terrible final moments; the '06 Mets & '10 Jets....things could've been so different. Jeff might be the biggest person at the wedding. You can't miss him.
Morgan McGarry
'Birdesmaid'
One of Crystal's first friends in college! From living together in a crammed triple to spending 3 glorious years living together in Astoria, Morgan has always been Crystal's mother figure and wonderful support system. Let's not forget that Corey and Crystal would not know each other without Morgan, that Crystal would not have her current job without Morgan, and that Crystal probably would have read not even half as many books as she has in the past decade without the recommendations from Morgan. She's a gem! xoxoxo.
Chris Monroe
Groomsman
Chris might be one of the most selfless people Corey knows. The guy actually fights fires and also played personal ambulance once or twice to his bridesmaid counterpart, Morgan....he also helped steal her car keys once and move her car all over the place and helped put itching powder in it, but otherwise a great guy. Chris was part of a little league team that protested a huge win by the little league team Corey and Brian were on. It was so petty of them. If you haven't hurd, Chris is now an (oh) father so if you get a chance, make sure you congratulate Kina first.
Penelope Peone
Flower Girl
Penelope is Crystal's niece and is a pure bundle of joy and enthusiasm! Penelope enjoys coloring, 'Moana', emojis, and most of all loves being silly with Uncle Corey 'Shmorey'. We're thrilled to have her as part of our special day! xoxoxo.
Keira Rembisz
Flower Girl
Keira is Corey's niece and is filled with an unbelievable amount of talent. Catch Keira singing at the Dutchess County fair, rivaling Aunt Crystals dancing skills, sitting atop her reading class, and if you look close enough, you may even see her on HBO's 'I Know This Much Is True".
Dante Peone
Hype Man
Dante is Crystal's nephew and will be turning 3 two days before the big day .. so make sure to wish him a happy birthday at the wedding! You can find Dante rocking out to 'Baby Shark' or 'The Hot Dog Song' any day of the week. He is sweet as pie and we also could not be more thrilled to have him as a part of our #squad! xoxoxo.
Tristan Rembisz
Hype Man
Tristan aka The T-Man is Corey's nephew, and simply put he will be the coolest person at the wedding. This sweet little rascal loves Chewbacca, all the animals, and The Nightmare Before Christmas. Tristan is also quite the dancer so see if you can keep up!
Dustin Peone
Officiant
Dustin is Crystal's older and (arguably) wiser brother. He is also a doctor of philosophy and celebrated author (his debut book, Memory as Philosophy, topped the Peone bestseller list in 2019). Dustin lives in Atlanta with his lovely wife Erin and their two amazing children, Dante and Penelope. xoxoxo.
