The future filippone's
Wedding Party
Alexandra Grant
Maid of Honor
Favorite memory with the bride: Our trip to Cali, our cruise after college, our Boston Bestie Day, when you broke your wrist in the first 5 minutes going down a bunny slope snowboarding, and all of the nights since high school that we have laughed until we cried over the littlest things.
Jake Filippone
Best Man
Favorite memory with the groom: Anything with my brother that entailed sports he was involved in, playing baseball in the backyard, throwing a football together, or playing basketball in our driveway. Another memory involving video games, Nate got the first Xbox 360 and he always used to let me play it even when I asked 9 million times. As adults, my favorite memory would be the ATV tour Nate and I went on in Aruba. We went sightseeing and cliff-jumping in the middle of the ocean. We forgot sunscreen in 90-degree heat and burnt to a crisp but I wouldn't change anything about that day.
Stephanie Wenchell
Matron of Honor
Favorite memory with the bride: My favorite memory with you is making Nana say words/phrases with her Italian accent and cracking up, she would get so mad at us but then laugh with us knowing she couldn't say Whoopie Goldberg.
Cole Phelps
Best Man
Favorite memory with the groom: When Nate used to come up to CCSU for my football games, we would tailgate and then head to the bars later on. He would always crash in my room and then be gone before I would even wake up because he's always been an early bird.
Taylor O’Sullivan
Matron of Honor
Favorite memory with the bride: My favorite memory with the bride was our family trip to Italy in 2017, and doing the jelly belly challenge together and my mom gagging while we laughed our asses off!!
Taylor Doyle
Bridesmaid
Favorite memory with the bride: I've had to think long and hard but I think my favorite memory is when you called me from Mitchell College and said you couldn't stay there and you were coming home. Because of that, we were able to have 4 years of nonstop fun at Westconn together. From taking Biology together, going to bars, and going on a trip to New Orleans with a club we weren't even members of. I'm so thankful we got to have all those experiences together and I can't wait to have so many more.
Rocky Griffin
Groomsman
Favorite memory with the groom: When we went on vacation to the indoor waterpark and slammed mud slides at the swim-up pool bar (that Jake couldn't get into) where we watched Blue Bloods and talked about wanting to be cops.
Kylie Brenneman
Bridesmaid
Favorite memory with the bride: One of my favorite memories with Juju is when we spontaneously went to a country concert and she finagled her way into VIP parking without a parking pass, it was one of the best things I've seen... we laughed so hard after that and that's one of the many things I love about her, she never fails to make me laugh until I cry and then owes me makeup.
Austin Marino
Groomsman
Favorite memory with the groom: When Nate, Jake, and I went to Jimmy's house last summer for a fun little bourbon adventure and too many blue moons.
Samantha Miller
Bridesmaid
Favorite memory with the bride: My favorite memory with the bride is when we combined our 25th birthdays and rented out a waterfront home in New Jersey. Many of our close friends came including the groom! I knew if he was still around after that weekend, he was the one. It's a time that we'll never forget, especially after Andrew Reilly's strip tease performance!
Michael Musto
Groomsman
Favorite memory with the groom: Julia and I were living together in an apartment in Norwalk when her and Nate first met. I've always been close with Julia and I remember how excited she was to have this new guy she was seeing come visit our apartment. I was her very first friend that got to meet him and since then we have been able to grow a closer bond as friends and I'm happy to be apart of their big day.
Krystal Pierce
Bridesmaid
Favorite memory with the bride: My favorite memory will forever be the first time we met. I was on a tinder date for the first time meeting a guy she was friends with. We met at the beach and talked all day long and became friends even though things with the tinder date didn't end up turning out. I still got a lifelong friend out of that day!
Kyle Dunn
Groomsman
Favorite memory with the groom: It had to be when we all rented a house in the cape and I thought everybody was joking around about me having an allergic reaction, when in reality I actually was. Then, Nate had to drive me almost 2 hours to the nearest hospital. Besides the whole allergic reaction thing, it ended up being a really good time.
Sara Phelps
Bridesmaid
Favorite memory with the bride: My favorite memory of the bride is when she got drunk and barrel rolled on the ground at my wedding and begged the wedding coordinator to let her play Pop Smoke all night.
