Liz & Kevin
Wedding Party
Erin Bellavia
Maid of Honor
As Lizzie's older sister, Erin has been there through it all. When they were younger, Erin helped her little sister build forts out of couches, pretended to believe in Santa for many years, endured long car rides in the minivan for family vacations, and drove Lizzie up for the big move from New York to Boston. Erin has always provided a listening ear for Lizzie no matter, and is always there to dance or laugh it out. You can count on Erin to be your beach buddy, have a music playlist for any occasion, give a binge worthy show suggestion, and most importantly to make a damn good cocktail. There are few people who could survive a Europe trip in a heat wave with Lizzie, and this girl is one of them!
Lakim Desir
Best Man
Kevin's oldest friend from when they first met in the High School cafeteria. From playing on the HS basketball team, being President & Vice-President of the Student body, and going away to college in Vermont together. They started off with the phrase "Shake & Bake" flipping burgers and preparing sandwiches at McDonald's, in record times, throwing in fist bumps after every large order. They turned their first dorm room into a club covered in black lights, and called it, "Club Black 48." Ever since they've met, they've pushed each other to do great things - and they've done just that.
Danielle Arens
Bridesmaid
Lizzie's cousin aka little sister. If Lizzie and Danielle are together, you can guarantee they will be uncontrollably laughing (with identical giggles) over something only the two of them find funny. Not only does Danielle make Lizzie laugh, but she's also one of the best listeners and workout buddy. She’s always optimistic and brings good vibes and encouragement to any decision Lizzie makes. She’s constantly motivating Lizzie to challenge herself physically as Danielle has completed multiple iron (wo)mans! And most importantly she has also lived to tell the tale of a Europe trip with Lizzie.
Leon Williams
Groomsman
Leon, often referred to as the silent assassin, is one of Kevin's best friends and roommates from college. Kev had a tough time getting a read on Leon at first, but the second Leon opened up, Kevin never stopped laughing. Leon had so much Ramen Noodle stacked up in his dorm room freshman year, we thought his parents owned the company. He's been there for Kevin through thick and thin, and is one of the most caring people he knows. Leon now lives in Charlotte and its always a good time when they get together for visits.
Lexi Barlow
Bridesmaid
18 years and counting - from Norwell, to Northeastern, to life after college, Lexi is Lizzie's oldest friend. She was the first person to invite Lizzie over for a playdate, they spent Thursday nights eating popcorn and watching Grey's at Northeastern, and they have endless stories about weekends spent dancing the night away. Lexi knows what she wants in life and isn’t afraid to get it, which is what Lizzie loves about her. You can also always count on Lex for advice, to show genuine interest in your life, support you through anything and of course to bring the best board games to any social event.
Patrick Reinisch
Groomsman
Pat is the one friend Kevin sees everyday. His partner by night, and drinking buddy by day. On their days off, you will typically find them, Lizzie and Pat's wife bringing business to the local watering hole. He was Kevin's academy roommate and is now one of his closest friends. Pat is always down to grab a drink, go on a hike with the pups and stay out too late on a weeknight. Leo and Sosa refer to him as Uncle Pat as he will always be the first to respond when you need a favor. He's also tried every beer ever, so try and stump him.
Tyler Brace
Bridesmaid
Ty was Lizzie’s next door neighbor, aka roommate, freshman year at Northeastern. Ty wasn’t so sure about Lizzie’s monotone voice and serious RBF when they first met, but Lizzie knew they’d be best friends when she spotted Ty’s stash of blowpops and cadbury eggs. Throughout 10+ years of friendship, Lizzie can always count on Ty to be down for a night out, to trek to Southie on St Pattys Day during a snow storm, for fashion advice, for a much needed confidence boost and to provide the shelter on our annual camping trip. Life without Tyler would be dull, but duh... we all already know that.
Crysandy Marte
Groomsman
Crysandy and Kevin met walking through the Quad at St. Mike's. He was the only other person who owned a Yankees fitted up in Vermont. They instantly bonded over the many things they had in common, including growing up in NYC. They shared countless Thursday nights that they'll never remember at Tilly's drinking $1 Jello shots, and $2 Genesee beer and even more Friday and Saturday night's at Red Square dancing the night away. Every time they get together they pick right back up where they left off. Crys is also one of the first friends of Kevin Lizzie met, so he's considered their good luck charm!
Mary Williams
Bridesmaid
Mother Nurse Mary is a college friend of Lizzie's. While at Northeastern, Mary earned her title as Mother Mary as she was always the first one to hold your hair back and rub your back after a long night out. She’d even leave the Gatorade and Advil on your nightstand for the next morning. She was always up for a night out, especially when it involved dancing, and to also snuggle up in a twin bed and watch Grey's. Post college, Lizzie can still count on Mary to be caring and supportive of any decision, and to always be the most excited to hear about good news, big or small!
Dave Donzanti
Groomsman
Dave "The DONZ" Donzanti, the night Kevin and him met sums up their relationship perfectly. Always pushing every moment to the limit, and turning every room they ever lived in into a party everyone wanted to be at. Donz was Kevin's fellow partying mate in college, and helped to rally the boys to the bars after a long day of work and class. After only knowing Kevin for a week, Dave convinced Kevin to buy a plane ticket to his parent's house in San Francisco. After blowing his last few dollars to buy a $650 plane ticket, Kevin and Dave have been bro's ever since.
Mia Rosario
Bridesmaid
Kevin's little sister and identical goof twin. Whether it's joining forces to make fun of Kevin or watching her have a dance battle with Kevin at family parties, Mia is always guaranteed to make Liz laugh. She shares Liz’s passion for animals and is such a good aunt to Leo and Sosa. Kevin still remembers the day he found out he was going to have a little sister, and boy was he not ready to share their parents attention! He has loved watching her become the young woman she is today and can’t wait to see what she does next. Liz can't wait to officially call Mia her sister!
Dante Rosario
Groomsman
Kevin's little brother and biggest supporter. Kevin remembers the day Dante was born, and is proud of the young man he’s becoming. He’s extremely smart and takes his academics very seriously, which is rare at his age. You can catch Dante playing video games any day of the week, and having the time of his life while doing so. He has his headphones on 99% of the day. He doesn't share Kevin's love for the Knicks, but as a wedding gift he's promised to watch two Knicks basketball games with Kevin each season for the rest of their lives!
Emily Hernandez
Junior Bridesmaid
Miss Emily is the Diva of the family! She always brings her strong makeup and fashion game, and newest dance moves to any event, which is why she makes such a great addition to our wedding party.
Mario Justin Muniz
Groomsman
Kevin's younger cousin and first boy companion at home, Justin and Kevin have had tons of fun over the years. From reenacting scenes from the Mummy to playing cops and robbers with their cousin Jada, they've shared countless sleepovers filled with so much laughter that usually ended with Justin throwing up (sorry). The two of them have countless stories to tell about each other at family parties which usually ends up with everyone crying from laughing so hard. You’ll now find Justin challenging Kevin to a game of beer pong or flip cup at every family party because he’s a big college boy now!
Brian "Ricky" Tan
Groomsman
Ricky is one of Kevin's friends and roommates from college. Kevin will never forget the night he met Ricky, Kevin completely misread him. Ricky was drunk walking down the hallway with Leon one second, and then rapping two seconds later. The funniest part, was that it was really good. Ricky introduced Kevin to skateboarding, amongst other things, and convinced Kevin it would be a good idea to go down a pretty steep hill on his first ride. Kevin still has the scars, and the video, to prove that it didn’t end well. Ricky has always been one of Kevin's closest friends.
