Bliss & Alan
Wedding Party
Guido Ronghi
Groomsman
Guido, yes that's really his name, is one of my buddies from OFS. We instantly hit it off when we found that our level of sarcasm / views of the world and humor are pretty much one in the same. We were also some of the best dressed guys at work! Snazzy!
Mike Coolong
Groomsman
Better known to me as Coolio! I met Coolio at my first place of work, TTM. I left my man crush back in 2012 to pursue a different career but he never left my heart. We keep in touch just about daily and plan man weekends at least once a year. Where we go, is anyones guess. What we drink will always be Titos and Club. Wait till you see his patent dance moves with a drink in his hand!
Chaz Dasilva
Groomsman
Chaz is the brother of the bride. We've only known each other for a couple of years but have had a few adventures of our own, from kayaking to helping us move / fix up our new house!
Eric Dube
Groomsman
Oh Dube, my college study buddy and jack of all trades. Met him through a mutual friend that told me that we were taking the same classes. In college we were the regular engineering partiers, you know studying in the library until we got kicked out around 12am then begrudgingly moving to the engineering lab to swear a bit more at the four question homework assignment.
Greg Reynolds
Best Man
Greg, G, my one armed air balloon pilot buddy. We met at Rez' (co best man) wedding back in 2014 and have been inseparable since. I had to go with two best men as it's a package deal. G and I have done quite a bit of traveling ourselves from road trips (MA -> FL), Austin and I was even his date at a couples resort in Jamaica (he kept that whole couples thing to himself until after I booked the trip). Laughing and Titos go hand in hand, expect a few good giggling attacks from this bandit.
Matt Rezendes
Best Man
Rez my other best man! I've known him the longest, from Auclairs Market (circa 2001). Rez was originally told that he wasn't going to like me and they couldn't have been any more wrong. Still to this day, whenever i'm in town you'll find us at Chilis (not my choice) in Somerset so Rez can have his strawberry margarita with sugar on the rim. My old man stuck in a 38 year old body, never change. Love ya!
Kara Skehan
Maid of Honor
Similar to my Hallmark movie classics, Kara and I had a meet-cute in the UCONN cafeteria lunch line and have been inseparable since. Words can't describe the friendship that blossomed from there. Put simply she is family and this day wouldn't be the same without her by my side. She is a ball of fun, compassion and loyalty.
Ashley Irizarry
Matron of Honor
My best friend since the second grade! The one I run to for advice and always knows the right things to say. She is hilarious and can alway put a smile on your face. The sister I never had, I couldn't imagine this day without you!
Anastasia Gaudreau
Bridesmaid
My college study buddy, roommate, and my best friend. Always there to calm my work anxieties and keep me going! I couldn't imagine not having you by my side, reminding me to take deep breaths. lol
James Jehnings
Bridesman
I met Jamie when he was Chief of Newington Emergency medical services of Newington. He was my partner and quickly became my therapist and best friend. Together we have been through it all the good and the bad times, he is the most genuine, kind hearted person I know. I would be honored to have him as my bridesman.
Jena Cardoso
Bridesmaid
While she is my cousin, she is more like my little sister. She's the best dance partner (sorry Alan) and she helps keep me young! I can't wait to share my day with you and party the night away!
Erica Guerricaechbarria
Bridesmaid
Erica brings new meaning to the word colleague, she constantly teaches me the meaning of friendship. She is the most considerate, and thoughtful person I know. I am truely blessed to have found a co-worker, partner and life-long friend like her.
