Wedding Party
Ms. Nikki Kupferman
Bride
Mr. Brice Ludwig
Groom
Mrs. Samantha Kupferman-Flynn
Maid of Honor
My beautiful baby sister is the first light of my life, my best friend, my rock & my complete opposite. She's an incredible friend, an amazing aunt & the most supportive sister. I've always been incredibly protective over Nikki but knew that I could trust Brice with her...I've never doubted that. Obviously with that said- I hardly go more than 24 hours without talking to her & lucky me... I now have Brice too. Brice has become an extension of my sister & vice versa. Now I can't say too much more or I'll give away all of my decent speech material...
Mr. Peter Liu
Best Man
I’ve known Brice since middle school (about half of our lifetime ago) and he’s been like a brother to me. We’ve had some adventures along the way — learning French techno dancing, joining the iconic Randolph Marching Band, taking on biochemistry internships in NYC, and engaging in coffee snobbery — but the greatest of all is just seeing him and Nikki build this beautiful life together. It’s been such a joy getting to know Nikki over the years. She’s one of the kindest, most genuine people you’ll ever meet and I’m so thrilled that we’ve become close friends, too. It’s been a long time coming and I can’t wait for their big day!
Mrs. Rebecca Päärent
Bridesmaid
I have been friends with Nikki for over fifteen years, and I cannot imagine a single one without her in it. Beyond the great memories of watching anime on sketchy websites and sneaking pizza into movie theaters, she also has pretty much single-handedly kept me out of the grave. Seeing her relationship with Brice develop has been really sweet. I can see how happy they make each other and how much they complete each other’s lives. I love these dorks. We have had a lot of fun (and sometimes crazy) adventures over the years, and I am super excited to be a part of this one!
Mr. Reed Ludwig
Groomsman
I've known Brice my whole life. We grew up next to each other and shared a lot of memories, whether it was playing video games or making claymations. I'm so happy to see him build this amazing relationship with Nikki, who when I first met was just Brice’s friend from college. We bonded when we watched Burn Notice on Brice’s 21st birthday when we were both too young to go out, and I could tell that the two of them were perfect for each other. I’m so happy for the two of them and can’t wait to see what great things they are going to accomplish in the future and I can’t wait to see them together on the big day!
Mrs. Robin Murphy
Bridesmaid
I’ve been friends with Nikki since 3rd grade when I was sat next to her thanks to alphabetical order. Thankfully our last names meant we got to sit next to each other a lot throughout the years, because she quickly became one of my closest friends. Nikki has always been a friend I can count on and I was thrilled to have her as the maid of honor in my own wedding. Getting to see the love and happiness Brice and Nikki share has been so special and being a part of their day is such a joy for me.
Mr. Julian Rodriguez
Groomsman
Brice and I first met when he moved to New Jersey in second grade. He quickly became a part of our group and our friendship has grown through the years with so many great memories, whether they were at the countless sleepovers or the times we'd bike the trails to the local 7-11. Brice and Nikki are perfect for each other. To many more years and many more Instagram food posts!
Ms. Kelsey Caruso-Sharpe
Bridesmaid
I have known Nikki since middle school and am so glad that she has been my best friend since. From daily congregations at her locker, to sleep overs, visiting her at college, and then navigating the world post-college, Nikki has been a constant supporter of decisions (especially trying to steer me away from the bad ones) and a ray of sunshine in my life. Getting to watch Nikki and Brice's relationship grow and seeing my best friend so in love and happy has been incredible and I cannot wait to celebrate with them! I love you forever pigeon!!

Brice and I were next door neighbors during our freshman year of college at Geneseo. We’ve known each other since day one and were roommates the following year. Thinking about it now, Brice was probably my first friend at Geneseo. We joined the same fraternity together, and continued living in the same house for the remainder of college. We were the two Biochemistry majors of the household. We spent a lot of time together studying, hanging out, and making our marks on campus. I don’t have many memories from Geneseo that Brice was not a part of. Brice and Nikki seemed perfect for each other from day one (I knew something was up when Nikki was willing to drive Brice 2 hours each way to pick up his broken-down car from a repair shop). I’m excited for their big day!
Mrs. Jennifer Goodridge-Ferber
Bridesmaid
I met Brice when he lived down the hall from me in Geneseo. We quickly became close friends & had many fun times hanging out, playing videogames, & telling tales of adventures. Brice let me cover his house in puffypaint working on gifts for my amazing sorority little Nikki. Though he made fun of me for it at the time, he'd agree she’s worth all the effort. I met Nikki at a BBQ before her 2nd year. She became my sorority little & we were instant best friends. I’m honored to know someone as clever, funny, grounded, & kind as her. We have the best times whether it's getting nails done, splitting baked ziti at Mia’s, or hanging out w/ Brice at Phi Lamb. I've been privileged to see their relationship grow from first meeting to a loving couple & am honored to stand by them as they exchange vows.

Brice and I met freshman year of college (ten years ago!) while playing ultimate frisbee in the Daga Quad. We quickly bonded over our love of video games, Lord of the Rings, and downstate bagels. After our freshman year, Brice and I pledged ∑AM together and became even closer, living together for the next three years. It was during this time that I met Nikki! She was perfect for Brice. Not only was she very smart, she also loved video games and got along with our group seamlessly. I'm so excited to have been a part of their amazing relationship throughout the years and can't wait for their wedding!
Mrs. Emily Mantelman
Bridesmaid
I met Nikki (and Brice!) 9 years ago when we pledged our college sorority, Phi Lamb. Spending nearly every waking hour with Nikki for a few months was incredibly special, and I'm so grateful for all of the phone calls and weekends I get to spend with her today. No cuddles are better than Nikki cuddles. Nikki and Brice are the kindest most genuine souls and I couldn't be more blessed to celebrate their love.
Dr. Joseph DiTursi
Groomsman
I’ve known Brice since the first weekend of college and we’ve been close friends ever since. Brice and I share many of the same interests together and are very like-minded. I remember the first time I met Nikki. She was such a caring, honest, and thoughtful person. It was clear from early on that they had great chemistry so it is no surprise that this day has finally come! I have also been fortunate to become close friends with Nikki as well. I look forward to my friendship with Brice and Nikki for years to come
Mrs. Melissa Jakway
Bridesmaid
Nikki was the first person I met when I walked into the Phi Lamb sorority house. She was sassy, witty, and fun, and I immediately knew we would be great friends. We spent many late nights studying together, attending parties, and staying in drinking wine while attempting winged eyeliner. I don't know what I would have done without Nikki through the years; she is the most selfless friend I know, the constant that is always there to love and support. I met Brice shortly after Nikki. He is the best guy, always ready with a killer playlist or lovingly brewed cup of coffee. They have always been the couple everyone looks up to, the perfect match who bring out the best in one another. I am so honored to be a part of their special day and cannot wait to celebrate two of my closest confidantes.
Mr. Nathan Jakway
Groomsman
I met Brice at a rush event for our college fraternity; he has a natural ability to draw people in with his outgoing & gregarious personality. Brice is the quality friend you can count on for anything: coffee brewing techniques, a hot take on Tolkien, the latest Nintendo release, or a freshly crafted cocktail. I also was lucky enough to meet Nikki during our college years. I quickly learned she has a penchant for nurturing everything around her: loved ones, plants, cats, delicious lemon loaf (she has killer culinary skills). It's been inspiring to watch their relationship over the years, across state lines & degree programs, supporting each other every step of the way. Nikki & Brice's love is truly special, and they make a perfect couple. I am so excited to be part of their big day!

I've known Nikki and Brice for the last 4 years. I've met these wonderful human beings through my boyfriend, Mike Apsokardu. Today, I call them some of my closest friends and could not imagine a world without them. They are the most fun to be around, between Nikki's cooking and baking, and Brice's bartending skills, no party is complete without them. Nikki is the most kind and real person I have ever met. She is so easy to talk to and confide in when the going gets tough. I am so happy that she has been brought into my life and I am so blessed to be a part of her special day. I will always be your go-to for beauty, self care, and pampering specialties. I am so happy we are neighbors so that whenever we need a friend we are only a knock away. Cat moms for life! I love you mucho!

Brice and I met in graduate school at the University of Delaware, sort of by chance because we were just looking for a roommate. It was through Brice that we then met Nikki, and now we have been roommates and neighbors for more than 5 years. Brice and Nikki are both great people and great friends, and I'm very thankful to have them as company for all our Delaware adventures.
