Danielle & Michael
Wedding Party
Shashy
Maid of Honor
Oh where do I begin!? I met Shashy 15 years ago in Hawaii! We were both nannying for different families and it was best friends at first sight! Not only is she beautiful inside and out, but her heart is as big as her smile. From pedicures, weekly bachelor nights, roommates and the Nutcracker to babies and a husband (on your end- until now) and both of us moving to different states! Friends forever! I'm so privileged to have you stand beside me as my maid (because matron sounds old) of honor on our special day!
Melissa Bissett
Bridesmaid
Oh Melissa! One of my oldest friends from childhood in Alaska and so special to me! Even when I left at 18 to go to college, we've remained best friends. We've done some life together. Whether it's game nights, turning kitchen appliances into sleds, or just all of us including the kids squeezing into your bed to watch a movie! It's been epic. Melissa is strong, resilient, so funny, and an overall amazing friend! I smother her with hugs, she pretends to hate them (she secretly loves it)! My wedding day would not be the same without her by my side!
Erica Carmody
Bridesmaid
E-Money! There's no one like Erica! We met almost 10 years ago through In the Loop Singles where we bonded over our love for wine and country music! From the moment we met, she has shown nothing but kindness, loyalty, and an unwavering friendship. Almost 10 years of being my concert buddy, going wine tasting, traveling all over the place, watching the Seahawks games, and always being up for an adventure! The next step is naturally having her up there on my special day!
Jordan Gustin
Bridesmaid
My grad school bestie right here! Jordan and I met in Virginia during Grad school in 2014- it all started with a hip bump and I'm so thankful! Jordan is always up for an adventure (including driving across the country from VA back to WA). She is one of those people that makes everyone around feel loved, seen, and valued. Jordan has been by my side through thick and thin, always ready to lend a hand, fly across the country or just share a good laugh. My wedding wouldn't be complete with out her up there!
Kendyl Dowen
Bridesmaid
Ken! My Sister Friend! Kendyl and I met almost 15 years ago when I was nannying for her little sister (Dylly) and she was still in high-school causing ruckus. Thank goodness we evolved and became such good friends in adulthood! She can always be counted on for a good laugh, a spontaneous dance party, and a solid partner in crime! Kendyl is smart, basically hysterical, driven and is always ready to make every moment more fun and unforgettable. That's why I knew I needed her standing by my side on my special day!
Danielle Roman
Bridesmaid
My soon to be SIL, that happens to have the same name as me (making it easy to remember)! We haven't known each other long, but she has always made me feel part of the family from the beginning. I know what it's like to have brothers bring home their significant others, so I appreciated her taking the time to get to know me (as long as it ended with me getting her approval to marry her brother). I can already tell that she is a genuine, kind-hearted, fun, loyal friend! I can't wait for all of our adventures to come and am so grateful to have her standing by my side!
Alex Burrell
Best Man
Alex is from the Bosten area and a Patriots fan. There are a lot of rules put in place where we are not supposed to be friends but when you put a Jets fan and a Pats fan together and have them meet each other in Virginia where if you have a northeastern accent, you are considered a minority, then you get to look past those rules. We tend to lean on each other a lot for advice about relationships work and everyday life. I probably would not be in the position to marry the most beautiful girl if it wasn't for him, and I will always be thankful for that.
Matthew Ponsiglione
Groomsman
My younger brother, Matthew is a special kind of character, he can be funny sometimes, he's pretty much a spitting image of me just in smaller doses. There are rumors that he may be a better athlete, but we all know I'm the favorite son!
Henry Roman
Groomsman
Henry is my brother in-Law, and one my closest friends. Henry is a great husband and father and continues to keep my sister happy. Leaving for the navy was an easier discission knowing he would be able to take care of anything while I was absent. He's probably the best gift my sister has ever non intentionally given me.
Billy Perillo
Groomsman
BIG BAD BILLY SWEET WILLIAM NOW.... Billy is my 1st cousin, and we grew up in our early years together. Then his family moved to Florida when I was around 13 or so, but once we reunited it was like we never skipped a beat. We were both always a little misunderstood and that's why we understand each other.
Matthew Nath
Groomsman
Matt Nath! I met Matthew in Nashville 5 years ago for the lovely bride's 30TH BIRTHDAY. we clicked immediately. A lot of very interesting and exciting stories but my favorite is how we took an uber to downtown Nashville and our UBER got a flat on the highway. We changed that tire so fast you would think we were a NASCAR pit crew. We became brothers a long time before this wedding, im fortunate to become part of his family.
Adam Nath
Groomsman
For the past 10 years I have always told Danielle I can't wait to meet your older brother Mike, and she would laugh and tell me that his name is Adam and not Mike because that would be weird if all 6 of our names were the same. Luckily, I did get to meet Adam earlier this year on a fishing trip. Adam is a lot calmer and more collected than his younger brother however I'm sure we have a lot more in common then we know, I'm excited to have a new brother in my life and excited for the future.
Karly Brandenfels
Junior Bridesmaid
Karly love! My fake little sister whom I adore! I remember when I first began babysitting for you when you were only 8. Oh how time flies! I love that I’ve been able to stay in your life and am so proud of the young woman you’ve become! I couldn’t ask for a better junior bridesmaid to help wrangle the tiny humans!
Dyllon Dickison
Junior Bridesmaid
Oh my Dylly Bug! My fake child that I babysat all those years ago and quickly became family! I started nannying for Dyl when she was just 1 years old and now she’s 16! I can’t even believe how she became so grown up! I’m so proud of the beautiful soul she’s become! I’m excited to have her be a junior bridesmaid on my special day!
