Maid of Honor
When describing my relationship with her to anyone, I simply say "That's my Jess!" Jess is truly the sister I always wanted and an incredible role model in my life. Jess officially joined the Marino family when she married my Uncle Rich. We will forever bond over shopping, traveling, and tequila. I am so lucky to have her.
Best Man
Colin and I have a brother bond like no other. Our childhood memories and unwavering support of one another are truly special. He has taught me countless things about brotherhood, emotion, and resiliency. I remain jealous of how much taller he is than me.
Bridesmaid
Han was my very first friend made in college. I will never forget the moment she walked up to me at freshman orientation at CCSU and we instantly became best friends. She has the perfect charismatic and outgoing personality. We spent so many nights laughing until our stomachs hurt, and dancing until we passed out. You will absolutely find Hannah on the dance floor with her husband Jonny.
Groomsman
Jonny and I met at Western New England University in 2012 pursuing degrees in Mechanical Engineering. I eventually met Randie through Jonny and Hannah in 2015 and am forever grateful. Amongst countless other things, Jonny and I continue to bond over tools, guns, and beers. "I'm not looking for the best players Craig, I'm looking for the right ones".
Bridesmaid
I knew Kait would forever be an important part of my life when she was one of the first friends that Dylan had introduced me to. That same night, she shared with us that she was pregnant with Lilly! Lilly and JoJo continue to be a light in our lives everyday. Kait is not just a mom, she's a cool mom. Kait is the life of the party and you will always have a good time when you are around her.
Groomsman
Mike and I met in 2010 at our first job, Domenic's and Vinnie's Pizza. He likes to joke that he taught me "Everything I know", but I think he learned a thing or two from me along the way. I was Mike's best man in 2014 and am honored to be the godfather of his daughter Lillian. Mike and I have watched each other go from kids to men and have memories that will last a lifetime.
Bridesmaid
They call her "Amanda-mazing" for a reason. Amanda and I met at CCSU when she was my neighbor in the dorms. We spent hours crying over Grey's Anatomy and laughing over Domino's pizza. Amanda will do anything for the people she cares about and you will not find a sweeter human. If you're looking for a new TV show, ask Amanda for recommendations!
Groomsman
Joe and I have known each other since elementary school, but we became close during our sophomore year of college in 2013. Joe and I shared our first apartment together after graduating from college and have countless memories on how our adult lives took shape. Joe's confidence and ambition are his greatest strengths and have influenced me tremendously. He remains, however, the only person I've met more stubborn than myself.
Bridesmaid
Moira and I became friends on a college trip to Ireland. From that moment, I knew Moira was a special person. Her positivity and humor are infectious. She is one of the strongest people I know and is a genuinely caring person that is always there to listen. Don't let her caring demeanor fool you though; there is a party animal ready to come out at any moment! I can't wait for all of our future travels together!
Groomsman
"Prev" and I met at our college orientation in 2012. We instantly bonded over our love of sports and need to compete....at anything. We eventually became roommates for our final two years of college. If you're looking for a story of me doing something dumb, he's your guy. He never stops talking, but you can rely on him for a good laugh. Prev is very caring, social, and loyal. If you can't find him he's outside arguing with the next guy.
Bridesmaid
Jen and I met when I got my first teaching job right out of college. We instantly connected over our passion for working with children. She continued to be my rock through my first few years of teaching. She inspires me with her strong independence and loyalty. I could not ask for a better god mother to Jameson (our fur baby).
Groomsman
TJ and I met in 2012, but we became close in 2015 when we shared a room in our final year of college. TJ is as one of a kind as it gets, and you'll never find him without a smile on his face. I have always been envious of the amount of energy he can carry into a room and his ability to see the positive in any situation. If you can't find him he's probably outside arguing with Prev.
