Marissa & Christopher
Wedding Party
Jennifer Williams Martyn
Matron of Honor
The first time I met Jennifer I was three years old. Her grandmother lived around the corner from our house in Mantua, New Jersey. I remember her daring me to do something and I can’t remember for the life of me why I did it. But my mother received a call from Jennifer’s grandmother saying she caught her daughter walking on the hood of her car in her little cowgirl boots! Needless to say, it was not a first good impression but if there is one thing I can say about my sister it is this, she has always dared me to be better than I was yesterday, take chances every chance I get and never regret a thing I do in this life. Without her I wouldn’t be the woman I am today. I love you Jenny!
Casey Morganelli
Best Man
What can I say about my best man and brother Casey, well I have known him since the day he was born. My fondest memories were playing sports together, playing in the five mile woods behind our house in Yardley and vacationing in Ocean City, Maryland. I have always consider myself very lucky to have a brother and friend. Casey has always been there when I needed him most and I am so thankful and proud to call him my brother and best man.
Marlisa LaRiche
Maid of Honor
It has been eighteen years of friendship with this wonderful woman! We became friends our 8th grade year during our history class where our teacher told us we should be friends since our names were so similar. And here we are, years later and we are still best of friends. Marlisa has always been the life of the party no matter if we went out for a night on the town or if we stayed in. She has always pulled me out of my shell and taught me to never fear living life to its fullest! I owe it to Marlisa for always encouraging and supporting me to take the leap! Love you Mar!
Mark Ohrenich
Groomsman
My whole life I've looked up to my brother. He was my protector and partner in crime but most importantly my best friend. I remember hot summer nights going swimming, watching thunderstorms from our front porch in Mantua, NJ and not having a care in the world. Mark you are the greatest brother a sister could ever ask for. Although we had times when we did not get a long (like any normal brother and sister) or I annoyed you way too much, I wouldn't change a thing about our childhood. I love you always!
Ashely Wilson
Bridesmaid
Ashely and I first met at Wawa on my very first day of work. Unbeknownst to me it would be the last time I would see her at Wawa, but not for long! A few years later we were reintroduced by a mutual friend. It was almost like we had been friends in another life because we just clicked right away. We always would joke that we were friends for only a few years and it felt like a lifetime. Well now its been ten years and the time with her has been a wild and amazing ride! I've never laughed so hard in all my life than when I am with her. Here's to another ten years! Love you Ash!
Jeffrey Dillon
Groomsman
I met Jeff through a close friend of mine when we were going for a motorcycle ride. We were all bikered out with our boots and Harley gear and there was Jeff, with his shorts and tennis shoes. I liked him immediately. Jeff and I had similar interests in guns, sports and bikes, making us fast friends in which we talked everyday. He has been the most loyal and trustworthy friend I have ever had. I am so grateful to have him and his family in my life and honored to have him next to me on my wedding day!
