Maid of Honor
Denise has been in Liz's life since the very beginning. Their families became neighbors in Cheshire when Liz was just 6 months old, and they've been with each other ever since. Growing up across the street meant everything from playing in the woods, to annual strawberry picking trips, to running track together in high school.
Best Man
As the groom’s older brother, he’s been Ryan’s partner-in-crime since day one. From childhood adventures and ski trips to living just down the street in Southie and taking Fred on Castle Island walks, they can’t go a day without talking.
Maid of Honor
Colleen has quite literally been part of Liz's life since the day she was born. Growing up on Verbena Court meant she and Denise were more like built-in sisters than neighbors. From childhood chaos to grown-up memories, the three have been there through every phase.
Groomsman
Ryan first met Tommy on the Cheshire High School lacrosse team, where teamwork (and trash talk) forged a lifelong friendship. From UConn roommates, joining FIJI, late-nights, and questionable cooking experiments, Tommy has been there for it all.
Bridesmaid
Liz met Kat freshman year at UNH when she walked into Liz's dorm with a 20-gallon bucket of ice cream. They became roommates junior and senior year and even backpacked through Europe after college.
Groomsman
Ryan met Christian in middle school playing lacrosse, and their friendship has been full of 4th of July cookouts, Hard Knox marathons, and debating all time UConn Men's basketball starting 5.
Bridesmaid
Liz met Mackenzie freshman year at UNH. She lived down the hall in Williamson and one night asked Liz to hang out, which led to their first adventure: a SigEp frat party (the library if my parents are reading this). From that moment, their friendship grew, to even roommates junior year, and countless laughs and chaotic memories ever since.
Groomsman
Brandon is Ryan’s cousin, from Christmas Eve at Grandma's to now living just down the street in Southie. Whether it’s Clemson vs. BC tailgates, Red Sox games, or Monday Night Bowling, he’s always bringing the energy, laughs, and good times.
Bridesmaid
Liz met Mer through Kenz, and our first adventure together was the same night out at the library. Since then, Liz and Mer have bonded over backcountry skiing, love for the White Mountains, and chasing every adventure or snack that comes their way.
Flower Girls
Charlotte and Bridget are Liz’s adorable nieces and the flower girls! We can’t wait to see them sprinkle petals and smiles down the aisle.
Officiant
Scottie Ruel was both Ryan and Liz's ski coach at Mount Southington. From the slopes of Mount Southington to becoming cabin neighbors at Burke, there is no one we'd rather have officiate our wedding. Having witnessed our journeys for so many years, he's sure to have a story, or many, to share along the way.
