Alicia & Michael
Wedding Party
Lynette Drexel
Maid of Honor
Lil Sis, partner in crime, best friend, the one I need standing by my side- I couldn't imagine life without this girl! From the moment she entered this world she was an instant excitement in my life. I loved being the older sister, helping her but really she was the one helping me grow and mature too. Nothing, I mean nothing, compares to the bond sisters share and I will be forever grateful that she is my little sis!
Matthew Galler
Best Man
My one and only little brother even though he has been taller than me since I can remember. The victim of most of my pranks but my longest friend. From bonzai dropping him and putting him in a sharp shooter to fighting over sports and superman underwear, there was no question who my best man would be.
Amanda Schulz
Bridesmaid
She put herself in my phone as Favorite Cuz and has been there for me from day one. From Mondays at Omi & Opas to many youth trips and endless sleepovers and now cousin celebrations, she has been there for all the good, bad and ugly moments. She's like an older sister to me and can't wait to have her by my side!
Kevin Ward
Groomsman
I will never forget the day in biology when we were forced to be lab partners, little did we both know we'd still be friends to this day. Oh the crazy adventures we shared, this guy is one of a kind. My chauffeur before I could drive and workout partner and oh yea I also shaved his back on occasion (you owe me!) this boy god is grateful to have you as a friend.
Julia Epprecht
Bridesmaid
My adopted little sister. I will never forget the first moment we met in church, I turned around and she greeted me by sticking out her tongue. It was a Wednesday night and her dad came to hold service in Amityville. A few years later my family moved congregations and we found ourselves meeting once again. Needless to say we've been best friends ever since!
Adam Smith
Groomsman
We met while working at the YMCA day camp and since then have been great friends. From doing multiple spartan races together, playing volleyball and working out together, I'm happy to have A-man be a part of our special day.
Melissa Sandoval
Bridesmaid
I would not have survived senior year of college without this girl! Being the only two interns in seminar brought us together. Always encouraging and helping each other grow in our careers and life. Getting engaged within weeks of each other to planning our weddings together, it will be so special to have her be a part of our special day.
Matt Gulotta
Groomsman
Another forced partner turned into a long-time friendship! Matt and I met in social studies where we were forced to be partners on a project that he made me be the scribe because he had bad handwriting. When he broke both his ankles... I was the one who wheeled him around. We've been to numerous Mets, Isles and football games together and I was grateful to be a part of his wedding and look forward to having him in ours.
Chrissy Galler
Bridesmaid
My new sister-in-law! Making fun of her brother is just one of the things we enjoy doing just cause its so easy. And fun fact, her middle name is Alicia! I am grateful to be able to call her my sister and have her stand by my side
Matt Calabro
Groomsman
One of my first roommates when I moved out of my parents house and the reason I met Alicia. We shared great nights at Katies and after work basketball shoot arounds and both enjoyed watching Lost. Thanks to this guy I get to marry the love of my life!
Dee Arata
Bridesmaid
My other new sister-in-law. From the moment we met, she welcomed me into the family and made me feel right at home. I am grateful to be able to call her my sister and have her be a part of our special day!
Vinnie Galione
Groomsman
We met in home & careers in 7th grade and were locker neighbors too (I still remember your combination 23-33-9). We worked together at the Watermill and both loved the Knicks. I visited him numerous times in Buffalo when he lived there and will be a groomsman at his wedding. He is the one friend I talk to every single day! Funny fact- he made me throw up once by pouring beer down my nose.
Penny Arata & Haylee Arata
Flower Girls
Meesha is what I go by around these two munchkins. I will always remember the day each of them was born and am so grateful to be a part of their lives. They are going to be the best big cousins someday! I can't wait to have them be a part of our special day.
Bill Arata
Groomsman
My brother-in-law and father to my beautiful, and only (that we know of) nieces. I don't know how he does it but he puts up with my sister. While I might forget to use it, he gives me a PBA card each year and we enjoy grabbing beers at local bars.
