Hi! I'm Alex! As one of Leah's older sisters, I've known her all of her life. Childhood was rough sharing a room with her, but the adventures of adulthood brought us close! One of my favorite things to do with Leah is discover new taco trucks. We definitely share a passion for a tasty treat! I am so excited to watch Leah walk down the aisle and marry her Prince Charming. Leah deserves all the happiness in the world!

Leah and I met at the start of our freshman year of high school. We went from partners in biology to being best friends in virtually no time at all. What sounds like a basic friendship was anything but, as we formed a quick sisterhood of two and became joined at the hip through the halls of Christiana High. From high school to college, teenagers to adults, and now to her wedding, I couldn't be more thankful for the friendship and experiences we've shared. I love you chica! I am so proud of you and all of your accomplishments!

Hey y'all! I'm Brooke, and I'm excited to stand by Leah's side on her special day! We met when we were both vet students at LMU. We clicked right away, but our bond really grew when we traveled to South Africa together for a wildlife medicine course. After fighting off ticks, chasing after rhino, and conquering many fears - need I mention the snakes - I couldn't imagine my life without Leah in it! She's become like an honorary little sister to me, and I am so thankful to be able to share these memories with her!

I met Leah during vet school where she instantly became one of my favorite people. From study buddies, to Sunday dinners before exams, and walking our pups on the trail between breaks, she quickly became one of my best friends. I couldn't have asked for a better friend to go through both the stressful and joyful moments of vet school and life.

I'm Leah's oldest sister Ashley and I have been watching over her since day one. I like to think she gets her bravery and sense of adventure from me. As my only sibling that is willing and happy to follow me down the side of a mountain on a bike or strapped into a snowboard, this girl knows no fear. The sheer determination instilled in her is absolutely awe-inspiring. It brings me so much peace and joy to know that you found someone who will love and support you, and encourage you to do hard things, because life wouldn't be as much fun if we always took the easy route. Love you little woman! Let's get this party started!

I met Leah in undergrad during a late night chemistry lab our freshman year. A fellow student asked if we were sisters and from that moment, we were inseperable on campus! We've made so many unforgettable memories with Domino's pizza study dates, rides in the Mustang, and late night adventures. Even though we took on vet school in different states, Leah and I have remained each other's constant confidant and cheerleader. I can't wait to be by her side on her special day!
Best Man
I’m James’ older brother TJ. We’ve been best friends since day 1. Growing up we were always competitive with each other driving one another to be better and not accept mediocre. Whether it was Madden ’04 or cul-de-sac basketball we’d always be competitive. I think this is what drove us to great brothers and great people. I’m very happy for James and love that he’s found the person that he wants to spend his life with.

I moved next door to James when I was 4 months old. Obviously we didn’t become friends right away but, we were all so close in our court and eventually we became friends. James is 3 years older than me so when we were young, he would beat the crap out of me. In some strange way, I liked it. As we got older, basketball in the court and going to Grain every weekend, solidified our tight friendship that will last a lifetime. I am honored to be part of such an important and special day in his life. I am proud to say he is my best friend.

James has been a best friend/brother to me since January of our sophomore year at St.Marks. He has always been the most kind, selfless person I’ve known. He is the person who I know, would answer a phone call for me in a time of need and say “what can I do”. Once he told me about Leah and said “I think I am in love”, I knew she was the perfect person for him. After meeting Leah I knew she was one to support and love him throughout this life long journey. I know they are going to be the perfect example of how a marriage should be. Best wishes to the both of you on these next steps of life.

(September 2014) Freshman year at Saint Marks I sat in homeroom with James for the first time, now ten years later we are celebrating him and the love of his life (September 2024)! Over the years we have created some long lasting memories from Lacrosse, Potnets, OBX, Golf Trips, Flyers Games and Woodloch Resort. The Magnani's have always treated me like family and I could not be happier with their newest addition. James, thank you for ten years of true friendship. I am so excited for you and Leah as you enter this new chapter of marriage!

James and I met playing lacrosse. We both always pushed each other to be better not just on the field but off as well. Seeing the joy that Leah has brought to James, I am excited to be apart of their special day.

I’m Tyler. James and I instantly became best of friends at Cabrini College where we both were members of the historic lacrosse team. We had a ton of great times on and off the field while we were at school together. Those great times have since continued in the past 8 years that have followed our time at Cabrini. Some of my favorite things to do with James are out drive him on the golf course or make a point blank save with him 1v1 on the crease. All joking aside (am I joking), I love James like a brother and am extremely excited to be a part of James and Leah’s big day!
