Wedding Party
Amber Scofield
Maid of Honor
Amber is Alyssa's little sister by about 10 years. Even with the age difference, they are incredibly close. There is absolutely nothing they wouldn't do for one another and time and time again they show up for each other. Alyssa couldn't ask for a better little sister. Fun fact Amber is currently a student at West Chester University learning to become a physical therapist in between her maid of honor duties!
Cody Tchir
Best Man
Kyle met Cody when he moved into Cody’s neighborhood almost twenty years ago. They spent most of their childhood, teen, and early adult years together. Most of the experiences that they shared together are what made them who they are today. Cody and Kyle had ventured off to explore and further their lives, but continued to stay close. Cody got married in January of 2025 where Kyle was his best man. They both ultimately ended up in their forever homes only ten minutes away from each other.
Samantha Krech
Maid of Honor
Samantha and Alyssa have been best friends since kindergarten, so basically their entire lives. They have been through it all together and have made many great memories. Alyssa's dad even considered Sam his second daughter because they spent so much time together growing up. One of their favorite activities to do is to wine and dine themselves at restaurants across New Jersey.
Anthony Amoroso
Best Man
Kyle met Anthony “Amo” during the hiring process for the Lakewood Police Department in 2020. For the past five years, they have been working together on the same shift with the same days off. Kyle and Amo have experienced the worst and best calls for service together, and in their off time like to get into competitive matches of Catan, where Kyle usually wins (I’m writing this so Amo has no choice but to agree.).
Marissa Coleman
Bridesmaid
Marissa and Alyssa were first coworkers at Saint Peter's, then friends, then best friends and then roommates. They spent about a year living together in Brick, and had one of the best summers bopping around from place to place. Though Marissa has been traveling all around, she is still one of Alyssa's favorite people. They are always laughing when hanging out and have even done a Christmas card together (which sparked rumors that they were dating LOL).
Artie Scofield
Groomsman
Kyle met Artie through Alyssa when they first started dating. Kyle and Artie’s relationship grew as they found common interests. Artie has played a huge role in building Kyle and Lyss’ life together. Their time spent together has consisted of attending concerts, building stuff together, and simple things such as taking quieter car rides separate from the rest of the family.
Lauren Mocik
Bridesmaid
Lauren was Alyssa's very first friend at college, and together they somehow made it through the halls of dana three with minimal PTSD. That first year of college was a huge adjustment and pretty hard for both of them, but they quickly became best friends and talked about everything. Those long talks are what kept Alyssa sane as a little baby freshman and really got her through. Here we are over ten years later and we're all just hoping Lauren shows up for the wedding on time!
Josh Bellomy
Groomsman
Josh and Kyle met during the beginning of their law enforcement career as special law enforcement officers (if you ever got a parking ticket in Seaside, it was probably us sorry). They went through the police academy together and had transferred to different agencies together to advance their career. While they work in separate counties now, they continue to stay close either by late night phone calls or getting something to eat.
Maureen Stout
Bridesmaid
Alyssa and Maureen met their very first day at Saint Peter's hospital orientation in February of 2018. Maureen really made those first couple of months of learning to help deliver babies so much better just by being someone so easy to talk with and vent to. She quickly became a really good friend to Alyssa, and always kept her laughing (seriously Maureen is the funniest person she's ever met). She is an all around an incredible friend to Alyssa.
Adam Rihacek
Groomsman
Although Adam and Kyle work together, their friendship started by discovering their mutual taste in music & media. Adam and Kyle have since been to many events and have traveled out of the state together. Conversations between them that start off about simple things often turn into hours long discussions about the most complex (and ridiculous) topics.
Amanda Wenson
Bridesmaid
If you know Amanda, you know that she is one of the kindest and most caring people you could possibly meet. As a little baby nurse Alyssa always looked up to Amanda who treated everyone with compassion, was just genuinely a good human and amazing at IVs. It was clear to Alyssa she'd love to have a friend like this. Not only is Amanda great, she's funny AND she also brings the best person to our friend group because she's married to her (aka Kim)!
Aimee Lok
Bridesmaid
Aimee and Alyssa became close when Alyssa moved 15 minutes from Aimee's house and they realized they had a lot of shared interests. Both of them loved eating the best food and finding to most fun drinks and traveling. They have actually been to four different European countries together (one by accident because they missed a flight hahaha...) Since then they have spent so many fun days and nights together and will continue to every summer on LBI.
