Wedding Party

Amy Fasel

Maid of Honor

As my younger sister, my Maid of Honor has always been the quiet strength in my life. She’s thoughtful in ways that surprise me, funny in ways that sneak up on you, and steady in ways that have carried me through more than she probably realizes. Growing up, I may have been the louder one, but she was always the voice of reason. She's been by my side at every moment and milestone, it only makes sense she would be by my side for such a special day.

Michael Salemme

Best Man

If you know Mike, you know he’s loyal to the core. He’s the guy who shows up no matter what — 2 a.m. airport run, surprise visits to Oswego, middle-of-the-night call — no hesitation, no complaints. Just there. He’s also got a sense of humor that can carry any room. Whether it’s a perfectly timed one-liner or a story that gets slightly less accurate each time he tells it, Mike makes everything more fun. Now, Mike is many things — coordinated is not one of them. If there’s a curb, he’ll find it. If there’s a drink, there’s a strong chance it won’t stay upright. His clumsiness keeps life interesting and gives the rest of us something to laugh about — especially since he’s usually the first one laughing at himself. All jokes aside, Mike is the kind of friend everyone hopes to have — loyal, funny, and always showing up when it matters most

Alyssa Crawford

Bridesmaid

If you ask Alyssa, she was Emily’s best friend first and she’d like the record to clearly reflect that. Long before Marcus had a say, she had already claimed her spot as ride-or-die, breakfast date enthusiast, and expert-level secret keeper. As Marcus’s sister, she generously (and wisely) helped bring us together - a decision that worked out beautifully for everyone involved. Alyssa is fiercely loyal, endlessly thoughtful, and the kind of friend who shows up with coffee, honest advice, and unwavering support. We’re lucky she’s family by birth and by choice.

Bobby Continelli

Groomsman

If you know Bob, you know he’s got effortless charm. He can strike up a conversation with anyone and somehow leave them thinking they’ve known him for years. It’s a gift — and he uses it well. Now, his driving record? Let’s just say Bob treats speed limits like polite suggestions, and staying between the lines is optional. Riding shotgun with him is equal parts thrilling and slightly concerning — but never boring. At the heart of our friendship is our shared love for the Buffalo Sabres. We’ve stuck by them through every high and low, always convinced this is our year. Just like with his team, Bob is loyal, passionate, and all in.

Christina Burgado

Bridesmaid

Christina was the first to step into her big sister role and lovingly (but firmly) tell Marcus, “Don’t mess this one up.” And honestly, we’ve appreciated her oversight ever since. An old soul with a gift for thoughtful, grounded advice, Christina has a way of keeping things real while making you feel completely supported. She shows up with honesty, perspective, and just the right amount of side-eye when needed. Beyond protecting the bride’s best interests, she’s been a steady, wonderful support to Emily - offering wisdom, reassurance, and big-sister energy in all the best ways. We’re endlessly grateful for her guidance, her humor, and for embracing her role as both voice of reason and forever hype woman.

Miller aka Skeetos

Best Doggo

Full of life, antics, and unlimited snuggles, Miller is the joyful heartbeat of the family. Equal parts comedian and cuddle expert, he approaches each day with boundless enthusiasm and lovable chaos. Whether he’s making everyone laugh or dramatically flopping into your lap, Miller lives big and loves even bigger. When he’s not keeping life interesting, you’ll find him claiming his rightful throne: a perfectly warmed heated blanket, where he reigns supreme in cozy comfort.

Parker

Dog of Honor

Thoughtful, gentle, and a friend to all, Parker brings a quiet sweetness wherever he goes. He is Mom’s most loyal shadow and steadfast best friend, always close by with soft eyes and an even softer heart. While his heart is pure, his manners are… aspirational at best. Personal space is optional, counters are negotiable, and chapstick is considered a delicacy. If yours goes missing, you know exactly who to ask.
