Maid of Honor
My first and longest friend on this earth. Kyla is always lovingly taking care of everyone including me from a distance (likely after a little phone tag). She has taught me so many life lessons, is always down to talk logistics, play any type of game, and celebrate. Since we’re getting married at the Jersey Shore - shout out to Snookie, Kyla, too is a walking holiday.
Best Man
There aren’t enough words to describe the impact that Tom has had on my life - a built-in best friend will have to suffice. Tom paved the way for us younger siblings with his actions and his words to back them up - to quote Barbara Galluzzi, the matriarch of all this wonderful chaos, from a young age “Thomas wouldn’t shut up until you put a plate of spaghetti in front of him.” Not much has changed, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
Maid of Honor
Even though she’s my younger sister, I’ve always looked up to Lilly. She’s innately wise and always knows how to make those lucky to be around her laugh, feel comfortable, and loved. When AIM first came out, she had lyrics to thugs mansion in her profile - that shows not only how wise she was from a young age but also her amazing taste in music. Living far away from Lilly has been tough but I’m so grateful for our strong relationship, vacations together, and frequent check-ins.
Best Man
There are a limited number of circumstances under which you can effectively end an argument with “what do you know, I used to wipe your ass” - alas, as the baby of the family Kevin has heard this his fair share of times. Kevin was one of the cutest, sweetest kids you could meet, with a tremendous smile. In our regular 2v2 battles in any and all sports, it was typically me and Kevin vs. Tom and Sean, and we grew to have a special bond. Kevin’s unwavering loyalty and faithfulness is one of the many things I admire about him, and I’m thankful that our time in CA has given me the opportunity to watch him grow into the man he is today.
Bridesmaid
My third sister - Kristen/Kris/Kristy and I did everything together from the day we met in 4th grade through high school. Including but not limited to playing all the same sports, biking/walking around town, watching Dumb and Dumber for the millionth time, and figuring out which household had a better dinner option and making sure we ate there (taco night always won).
Groomsman
Joey and I met at John Hill School at the start of 6th grade, and have been best friends ever since. I consider Joey my fourth brother, and he will tell you that Anne certainly yells at him like he’s her fourth son. From Grayhawks football, to OLMC basketball, to awkward middle school years, through high school and college, and into our adult years, Joey has never been anything less than someone I have turned to in any and all situations and circumstances - whether for a laugh, a cry, or several bottles of wine. Legend has it that the roars of our mopeds still echo through the hills of Boonton (honorary shout out to Sean Meehan).
Bridesmaid
Jbo and I met in college and then lived together in Boston for 3 years. I’m so grateful to have been Jbo’s roommate - having such a wise, even-keeled, and down for anything wonderful person in the room next to you was a phenomenal feeling. We were always on the same page - going for walks, talking about life and the cute dogs we saw, and sitting on our awesome porch working on our tan.
Groomsman
I sometimes use the 'notes' app on my phone to take down random thoughts - funny things that I think about, lists, that sort of thing. I have a note from July 24th, 2017 that says "Real friends are the ones you always tell the truth to. I think Cannone is the realest one I have". I don't think I've ever actually told him that - nobody wants that head any bigger than it already is (literally/figuratively). Mike has been one of my closest friends since we came together in Suite 230 of the Sourin dorm at Saint Joe's, and we've been jawing at each other ever since - through our FIFA battles at SJU, reckless adventures in Manayunk, early PwC days, LA visits, and beyond. Mike is one of the most genuine and authentic people you could meet, and I'm thankful to have him as a friend.
Bridesmaid
Marissa and I met through a mutual great friend (shout out to Adam White). White told me one of his friends was moving to LA and thought I would get along great with her, 3 years later - she’s one of my favorite people! Marissa lived with Vin and his brothers before I joined them and was instantly the sister they always wanted (okay, needed). All of us appreciate how Marissa doesn’t sugarcoat anything - she tells us how it is, what we need to do / know, and somehow does it in a loving way.
Groomsman
Kierney's brother and some may say the “prince” of the Waldron / Ross family. Vin has witnessed Kierney and her sister's drop whatever they were doing to make sure Shaun had everything he needed. When we were living with Tom, Kev, and Marissa, Shaun was in between graduating college and working so he came to chill with us for a few weeks and chill it was - Shaun has to be one of the most easy going people ever.
Groomsman
Vin’s brother, Sean Scott Downtain, left this earth too soon and is dearly missed. He left us a very dear gift and a piece of him, his son, Sean Michael Downtain. Sean loves riding his bike, playing on the jungle gym, taking Louie for walks around the block, and any and all superhero’s. He is a brave little boy, extremely silly (like his uncles) and loves his big, crazy family (especially grandma).
