Wedding Party

Ashley Grom

Bridesmaid

Ashley is Lisa’s oldest and truest friend. They have known each other for 30 years! THIRTY! The two met in kindergarten at Blessed Sacrament in 1991 and have been the best of friends since. Through life's ups and downs, and across the many miles, Ashley has been such an amazing woman in Lisa's life. There is no one better to be by her side as she says "I do!". Fun Fact: Ashley was on Cake Wars and hates mozzarella cheese!

Matt Fuehrer

Best Man

Charlie and Matt first met 33 years ago on June 17th in Rochester, NY. Growing up, Matt has always been a role model for Charlie and Charlie was often found following in his footsteps. As Charlie takes on life's next greatest adventure, there is no other person he would rather have by his side. Fun Fact: When Charlie was little, Matt rocked him through the front window of their house in a large wooden rocking chair.

Sam Darjany

Bridesmaid

Sam was Lisa’s roommate at the Naval Academy. That role should also be formally considered tutor, therapist, and most importantly, alibi. From the library to liberty, and everywhere unauthorized in between, Lisa and Sam were inseparable. Life after college brought them to opposite sides of the country and world, but their friendship and sisterly love for each other has withstood the test of time and distance. Fun Fact: As Sam and Lisa met in Annapolis in spring 2006, Charlie and Sam's husband, Andy, were also meeting at the same time during NROTC Indoctrination.

John Lafrance

Groomsman

John and Charlie met in 1999 in middle school and quickly became good friends. They stuck together through college and were even dorm roommates. Throughout the years, John and Charlie have stayed in touch and remained close friends. Charlie can always count on John for a beer when he returns to Rochester. You can always rely on John to be there when you need him and is the perfect person to stand by Charlie's side on his wedding day. Fun Fact: John once overnighted kettle corn from Rochester to San Diego because Charlie was going to miss the Rochester Lilac Festival that year.

Andrew Foley

Groomsman

Andrew and Charlie met in 1999 in middle school and spent every year of school together through graduating from RIT in 2010. Since Charlie left Rochester in the summer of 2010, Andrew and he have remained in touch and always have time to catch up on shorts trips back to Rochester or vacations to Hawaii. Andrew is one of the most loyal people he knows, and Charlie couldn’t be happier to have him standing by his side on my wedding day. Fun Fact: In college, Andrew once accidently mooned an entire ice skating rink because of Charlie.
