Wedding Party
Paige Settino
Matron of Honor
Em's best friend since forever! Our grandparents were best friends, our parents are best friends, and our kids don't know it yet but they will be best friends too! Emily and Paige have been through all of lifes good, bad and ugly times. Paige lives in Denver so when she comes home, we treat everyday like Christmas! Em couldn't imagine their big day without Paige holding my bouquet and standing right by my side.
Brian McGinty
Best Man
Brian and Logan were next door neighbors since they were 6 years old. They would either play roller hockey in the cul-de-sac or release at night with all the other neighbor kids, it was hard to keep them separated. During high school Brian and Logan won States on the Bethel Park Ice Hockey Team. After college, Brian and Logan both moved back to Pitt and lived together in the Southside and Greentree for the next 4 years. Oh Yeah, we also introduced Emily and Katey to each other…We take full credit for their relationship.
Katey Yurchick
Maid of Honor
Katey and Emily met when Logan and Brian were roommates in Pittsburgh together, and have been inseparable ever since. We thank our fiance's for helping us find our other soulmate in life. Katey and Emily are also business partners with All Dec'd Out Balloons! We say that we are each others "coach" in life because we push each other to be the best version of ourselves.
Ramsey Netzel
Groomsman
Ramsey and Logan met in 2nd grade in Mrs. Luccarelli’s class, and they’ve been boys ever since. They lived in the same neighborhood growing up and would meet up to do God knows what. Logan would always pick up Ramsey in his Ford Focus because he got his license before him, and they would drive around town. Logan and Ramsey both played on the Bethel Park Ice Hockey team.. Heyyy Hawwwks. Now they are past their prime and settle to slap it around on the golf course. Most of the time they are cartners (golf partners who ride in the same cart) trying to win some money.
Meghan Massa
Bridesmaid
Growing up as cousins, Meghan has been part of so many of Emily’s best memories. From family beach trips to spending our Christmas’ together, Meg has been the sister Emily never had. She is the most thoughtful and creative out of our cousin trio. Our moms are sisters and best friends and have shown us over the years how important family is so it is only fitting that Meg stands beside Emily on her special day
Josh Martin
Groomsman
Logan can remember the exact moment he met Josh. Logan walked down to the hockey house from the Kent State dorms the second day of being at college. While Logan was meeting the boys and hanging out on the couch, he sees this freshman walking down the stairs. What do you know it was Josh. Logan was so jealous at the time because Josh somehow skipped living in the dorms and got to live in the hockey house his freshman year. Ever since that moment you could find them either running the beer pong table all night, having a gonger in 121 Uni living room or having sleepovers in his bunk beds watching Dexter.
Claire Havrilla
Bridesmaid
Claire is the other cousin in the trio and Emily’s mini me. Claire is the cousin who makes everything more fun and is the greatest friend to everyone in her life. Claire brings LIFE to her life and Em thanks god everyday he gave her someone who truly gets her. Claire’s laugh is contagious so if you hear a chuckle on the alter its probably her.
Bryan Brown
Groomsman
Growing up Bryan lived up the street from Logan. They didn’t hang out as much as you would think but they got a lot closer when high school hit. Sophomore year, Bryan won States with Logan on their Bethel Park Ice Hockey Team. Bryan would always have the boys over in his basement for late night pops, poker or a movie night. Logan lived with Bryan in the south side after they returned home from college. Those were the days, from sipping on Jim Beam, betting on sports or eating wings at Birmingham Tavern.
Lauren Phillips
Bridesmaid
Lauren and Emily grew up at the Greensburg Country Club together. Early in life Lauren was like a big sister to Emily and over the years has become one of her best friends. One of Emily’s favorite things in life is to sit at the Greensburg Country Club pool with Lauren drinking our GCC squeeze cocktails. Emily treasures her friendship with Lauren so much and is honored to have her by her side
Matt Griffin
Groomsman
Matt and Logan became close in high school. Matt was a stud on the pitch as Logan was on the ice. Matt would always be getting the crowd going when he came to the Bethel Park hockey games. One of Logan’s favorite memories to date is going to St. Andrews with Matt, Bryan and Ramsey for a golf trip. Logan is lucky to still be alive with Matt’s driving skills in Scotland. Nobody can beat them in a 2man golf format. Still undefeated, let’s goo. Matt and Logan live a few minutes from each other now and always like to get their dogs together to play in the yard. Murphy and Ellie are BFF’s.
Laura Govi
Bridesmaid
Laura and Emily were soccer pals in elementary school and have grown into dog mom’s and neighbors! Laura and Emily would car pool to soccer practices and Emily remembers that even then, Laura was always the kindest girl on the soccer field. When Emily wants to do something on a whim, Laura is always the first person she calls. Being neighbors has been so fun for both us and our dogs! Laura is such an amazing friend and Em is so grateful for her!
Evan Wiesen
Groomsman
Logan took Evan under his wing freshman year. Evan is a few years younger, so Logan showed him the ropes with just being the man or talking to girls. Evan lived a mile from the High School Campus so they would walk down to his house after school and play March Madness 2005 on PS2 for hours on end. Evan and Logan live just a couple minutes from each other now and spend most Sundays watching Big Ben sling it around. He’s also a great Uncle to our Ellie girl.
Laura Lee Nowak
Bridesmaid
Laura Lee is Emily’s saving grace. Laura Lee and Emily were roommates in Shadyside for 4 years and have helped each other grow into the people they are today. When Em needed any advice, Her and Laura Lee would sit at their kitchen table with a cup of coffee and Laura Lee would help Em get through whatever it was. Em is forever grateful for Laura Lee and those years that they lived together. Laura Lee’s big heart is clear to anyone who knows her
Kenny Lehmann
Groomsman
Kenny and Logan first met in 6th grade when Ken moved from Keystone Oaks to Bethel Park. Logan was eating dinner at Al’s Cafe when he saw Kenny walk in with an Atlanta Thrashers jersey on. Knowing he loved hockey Logan knew they would be boys. Kenny and Logan would literally hangout every day growing up. Sophomore year, Kenny and Logan won States playing on the same (yellow) line for the Bethel Park Ice Hockey Team. Logan is so proud of the man/husband/dad Kenny has become today.
