Ilexis & Walter
Wedding Party
Melissa Mason
Matron of Honor
Where can I even start speaking about my sister and first best friend. Melissa is 7 years older than me, so growing up I looked up to her. I even cleaned her room, because she said I could 'hang' out with her and a friend. As time went on, and the age gap closed, we have leaned one each other through thick and thin. From trips to Long Beach Island, to adventures on Angus Lane, to being her Maid of Honor. Even holding Charlotte, my niece and then Lincoln, my nephew. It has been these special times that have kept us close and know we are always here for one another. I even remember the time she dared me to bend her finger back - well I broke it! I am so excited you accepted to be my Matron of Honor I couldn't imagine you not by my side and holding my dress up while I pee! Love you Issy!
James Luginsland
Best Man
Walter and James have been friends since first grade and played soccer together. Since then, the Seme and Luginsland family have gotten close. Everything from sports to family events. He is always there for Walter and puts up with his 'shenanigans' through thick and thin. James is a good guy. Walter and James enjoy playing cards, video games and having a beer together.
Kate Barnett
Bridesmaid
Where to begin...Ilexis met Kate at University of Massachusetts when they lived together for a semester. From parties missed due to confusing white board writing, to naming alcohol for birthdays, dying hair and then making snow angels in shorts, to talking about certain guys - their bond was sealed. There might have even been an incident or run in with a cop, where Kate stated Ilexis did not live with her...we won't go into that story now. You will probably find Kate getting the party started on the dance floor with champagne in hand and old school Beyonce! From University to now - Amherst, MA, Morristown NJ, Atlantic City, Austin TX and more - you have been there no matter what! I can't wait for you to stand there next to me when I marry the love of my life!
Greg Luginsland
Best Man
Greg and Walter have been 'brothers' on facebook for years. Even though they are not biological brothers. That is how comfortable they are with each other. They met through Walter and James being friends. Through out the years they have gotten close through playing cards, hanging out and family trips.
Grace Keeney
Bridesmaid
Grace is not only my future sister-in-law, but also one of my dearest friends. From the moment we met, she welcomed me into the family with open arms and made me feel right at home! We’ve since shared plenty of, holiday memories, escape the room adventures, board game playing (where she knows what I am thinking) and planning birthdays without Walter knowing. (with many more to come!). She has an warm and bubbly personality and can always make us smile with her thoughtful ways! Thank you for welcoming me into the Seme Family. I can't wait to have you as my official sister-in-law.
Matt Keeney
Groomsman
Matt is Walter's first brother-in-law. He loves to hike and have a good time. Walter and Matt bonded over beer, board games and giving good advice.
Brittany Meshberg
Bridesmaid
Ilexis and Brittany met while getting nails done. Since that day, both of them have never even gone back to that nail salon - but continue to go get their nails done together on a regular basis. From 4th of July parties with Brittany's family to Halloween adventures - they have remained close. I can not wait to have you as part of my tribe, being with me on one of the most important days of my life. You have seen Walt and my relationship grow and could not think of a better friend to stand by my side.
Andrew Mason
Groomsman
Andrew is Walter's future brother-in-law. Great husband and father. He was there for Walter to help with the proposal to get the best pictures. He is known as the 'creepy guy taking pictures'. He is a big Carolina Panther's fan.
Katie Schwinn
Bridesmaid
Katie and Ilexis met while working at Pandora. After which ilexis went on to work at Active International, and passed on Katie's resume for her to work there too! From Thai and Indian food eating to girls nights - the two are never short of laughs and fun. I am so happy to have you part of my bridal party - to lend a hand, provide a shoulder and share the laughs and memories of the night and future.
Koushik Dasika
Groomsman
Friends since high school. You could say its a bromance. But it might be more than that ( and Lexi tries not to get jealous). Walter and Koushik talk almost every day about development and video games.
Rachel Morris
Bridesmaid
Ilexis and Rachel met while working at camp one summer, although Ilexis first met Rachel's sister Sara soon their bond formed strong. From NYC party nights, to late night talks, even being a Bridesmaid in Rachel's wedding to Eric - Rachel and Ilexis's bond grew stronger. I stood by your side on your special day, and so happy you are able to stand by mine. Thank you for being there for me throughout the years and continuing to be a friend I could call on for anything!
Jason Fenyar
Groomsman
Walter's first and oldest friend who couldn't get rid of me. Even though he tried. They met when they were babies and stayed in touch through his family's 'play group'. They stay in touch and play video games together on a regular basis.
Miriam Friedman
Bridesmaid
Miriam has been one of my best friends for more than a decade after first meeting during a NFTY Jewish Event. Although at first we did not get along quite as well, we have remained close and share many moments in life together. She has seen me through all those frogs prior to finding my Prince. Miriam is one of the most loyal people I know, and I couldn’t be happier to have her standing by my side on the day. Thank you for always being by my side for all these years, I can not wait to see what the years hold for us!
Charlotte Mason
Flower Girl
And lastly, the most adorable, sassy, bubbly, and overall awesome flower girl, Charlotte Mason! You never know what this little girl is going to say. She cannot wait for the special day and wants to know what is going to happen. We love seeing her in her 'Flower Girl' cape running around and know she will save the day if needed! Charlotte lights up a room with her giggle, smile and excellent cuddles. I am so happy to share so many memories with Charlotte and to have my sisters daughter and my niece a part of our day! Love you so much xo from Aunt Lexi and Future Uncle Walt
