Wedding Party
Bryn Camp
Bridesmaid
Bryn has been one of Janice’s constants through every season of life. From countless adventures and travels to late-night talks and big laughs, we’ve shared so many ups and downs — and laughed through all of it. Our long and enduring friendship means more to me than I can say, and I’m so grateful to have her standing by my side on this special day.
Lindsay Rinier
Bridesmaid
Lindsay Rinier is Janice’s long time adventure buddy and dear friend. From traveling and eating our way through every vacation, to singing in the streets and laughing until we cry, every moment with her turns into a memory. No matter what life throws at us, we always manage to find the fun — and I’m so lucky to have her by my side on this day and always.
John Melle
Groomsman
Johnny Melle, Dave’s brother, has always been the definition of loyalty, fun, and adventure. Growing up as one of three brothers, we are so honored to have him at Dave’s side. Whether he’s cheering on the Eagles, swinging a hammer and helping out whenever we need him, or bringing laughter to every gathering, John’s love for fun and family shines through in everything he does. We’re so grateful to have him standing with us on this special day.
Richard Melle
Groomsman
Rick, Dave’s brother, has been Dave’s constant and steady presence through every chapter of life. Always loyal, always levelheaded, and always ready for a good time (especially with a martini in hand), Rick perfectly balances fun with unwavering family values. His loyalty, wisdom, and love for his family make him someone everyone is lucky to have by their side — and we’re honored to have him standing with us on this day.
Mark Livshits
Brother of the Bride
Mark Livshits, Janice’s brother, is not only a gifted and beautiful piano player, but also one of the funniest and warmest people you’ll ever meet. His sense of humor lights up every room, and his music touches every heart. Having him play during our wedding ceremony is incredibly meaningful — his talent, love, and artistry will forever be part of this moment, making our day even more special and unforgettable.
Alissa Dunn
Matron of Honor, standing with me from above.
Alissa Dunn was Janice’s truest friend. On our special day, she would have stood by my side as my Matron of Honor, just as she stood by me through every chapter of my life. My fiercest protector, Alissa was loyal beyond measure, endlessly supportive, and hilariously funny in a way only she could be. Through every up and down, she never left my side. Although she cannot be with us here today, I know she is watching from heaven, smiling, blessing us, and protecting us as we begin this beautiful new chapter of our lives. Her love will always be part of this day and forever part of my heart, and I know she will be there with me.
Olga Livshits
Mother of the Bride
Olga Livshits, Mother of the Bride, is the life of every party! Fun-loving, full of laughter, and always ready for a good time (especially if there’s a perfectly chilled martini involved), she is adored by everyone lucky enough to know her. Olga puts her family above absolutely everything — they are her pride, her joy, and her heart, and she manages to keep the fun flowing, the smiles spreading, and the celebrations unforgettable. We are sure she will be filled with joy and fun as she celebrates at our wedding!
Gerry Melle
Mother of the Groom
Gerry Melle, Mother of the Groom, is the heart and soul of her family. A phenomenal cook whose meals are always made with love, she nourishes both body and spirit with her warmth and care. Gerry’s three boys and her family are at the very center of her world, and everything she does is guided by her unwavering devotion to them. Today, we are proud to celebrate our special day with a woman whose love, generosity, and nurturing spirit have shaped the family we honor and cherish.
Oleg Livshits
Father of the Bride
Oleg Livshits, Father of the Bride, is the calm anchor and steady presence of his family. With a laid-back nature and a quiet strength, he brings reassurance, his signature dry humor, and wisdom to every situation. Deeply devoted, Oleg would do absolutely anything for his wife and family, always putting their happiness and well-being above all else. We are honored to have this man whose love, support, and gentle spirit make every moment brighter for those lucky enough to know him, as a part of our celebration.
David Melle, Senior
Father of the Groom
David Melle Sr., Father of the Groom, quickly becomes “the mayor” of everywhere he goes — effortlessly making friends, sharing laughs, and bringing people together. Always ready with a smile, a joke, and a perfectly mixed dirty martini, he is the heart and soul of his family. Devoted, generous, and endlessly caring, David goes out of his way for everyone he loves, making every gathering brighter and every moment more joyful. We are so honored to have him with us on our special day.
Chris Schonely
Officiant

His loyalty and generous spirit make him not only a cherished family member but also a truly remarkable person. We are so grateful to have him guiding us on this special day.
