Gianna & Christopher
Wedding Party
Missy Marion
Maid of Honor
Missy, who we can all thank for the introduction of the bride and groom, quickly became one of Gianna's best friends during their time on the bower in "A Midsummer Nights Dream" at Pepperdine. There is nobody who quite understands Gianna's humor or her bowels. Gianna is thrilled to not only have Missy be her best friend, but now also her sister.
Spencer Storbeck
Best Man
Christopher and Spencer became good buddies while playing side by side on the high school football team's offensive line. After high school, however, these two really flourished during their Wyoming summers, where they set out to learn the many secrets of life among mountains, rivers, and PBRs. The journey continues to this day, and whenever they get together now, it's a guaranteed late night and slow morning!
Charlotte Harrison
Bridesmaid
"Are you guys twins" is a question that Charlotte and Gianna often get asked when they are together. Charlotte became one of Gianna's best friends in 2010, 10 years ago!! Charlotte and Gianna are more similar than they are different, and it has been so fun to go through wedding planning together. Gianna and Charlotte have remained close friends through high school (cheers to Brigitta), cheer team, freshman year in Alabama, and now post-college life.
Terry Kelly
Groomsman
Terry and Christopher became instant pals during their freshman year at Redlands, bonding over things like keystone light and frequent trips to Newport beach. The two enjoyed countless memories of living together - from their crappy dorm room in Anderson Hall to their prime spot on Campus Avenue. And if you've ever heard someone refer to Christopher as "Carl", you can thank Terrence for keeping that alias alive and well. Good job Terry.
Allie Hovsepian
Bridesmaid
Allie and Gianna have been friends since 2010, 10 years!! Allie has always been a great confidant for Gianna and source of advice. Her calm and logical mind has helped Gianna stay grounded throughout their friendship. Gianna is so excited that she now lives close to Allie, on the Westside, and that their dogs have become fast friends!
Joey Yaller
Groomsman
Joey is another one of Christopher's buddies from Moorpark. They've continued to build countless memories through the years, whether it be in Wyoming, Chicago, or just their annual sushi night back at home. Joey has always played a crucial role in Christopher's group of friends - quick with a joke, a big laugh, and of course a cold beer.
Nicole Lussier
Bridesmaid
Gianna could not imagine standing up on her wedding day without her oldest friend, Nicole. Nicole and Gianna met when they were two years old and raising hell at their childhood church (don't worry, they still raise hell every Christmas Eve). Nicole and Gianna have remained close friends throughout their life, even though they have lived far away from each other. Not only is Nicole in the bridal party, but so is her twin, Laura, and their dad, Kevin is officiating! The Lussiers have been incredible family friends. Pink Roses for life!
Greg Arrigoni
Groomsman
Greg is probably Christopher's oldest friend, meeting one another when they were just in first grade. Growing up on the same street, they shared many childhood memories of climbing trees, lighting things on fire, and performing some of the best TP jobs Moorpark has ever seen. Luckily, their friendship has continued through the years, ensuring they'll be friends for life!
Laura Lussier
Bridesmaid
Gianna could not imagine standing up on her wedding day without her oldest friend, Laura. Laura and Gianna met when they were two years old and raising hell at their childhood church (don't worry, they still raise hell every Christmas Eve). Nobody makes Gianna laugh quite like Laura, especially during a rousing game of Prank. Not only is Laura in the bridal party, but so is their twin, Nicole, and their dad, Kevin is officiating! The Lussiers have been incredible family friends. Pink Roses for life!
Richard Thompson
Groomsman
Richard "Dick" Thompson and Christopher shared a thin wall in their Wyoming dormitory during the summer of 2010. When Christopher found himself overseeing the remodel of the Plato beach house in Hawaii, he knew Dick Thompson was the right companion for the job. Showing up a few days later with only a duffel bag and a blanket, Christopher and Thompson spent the next year managing a circus of contractors while doing their best to enjoy the aloha life.
Noelle Marion
Bridesmaid
Gianna is so happy to get to call another amazing friend her soon to be sister! Gianna and Noelle have much in common, including their love of: bad musical theatre compilations, conspiracy theories, lifetime original movies, and 90 day fiancé. Gianna feels so lucky to be joining such an incredible family.
Casey Blum
Groomsman
Casey and Christopher met each other in 3rd grade and became best of friends. They were a "package deal" on every basketball team they ever played on, and they even joined a bowling league as a team of two. To this day, Christopher is eternally grateful for Casey and the Blum family for involving him in a world of boys and sports rather than his sister's dance competitions.
Lisi Angle
Bridesmaid
Lisi and Gianna became fast friends when they both moved to Boulder and found themselves teaching at the same school. Not only did they connect quickly, but Lisi's husband, Keane, and Christopher bonded immediately. They have spent many a night making cocktails, watching Vanderpump Rules, playing white claw pong, and snuggling their dogs (who are also obsessed with each other). Lisi is one of Gianna's most supportive friends, and Gianna can't imagine getting married without this lady by her side.
Keane Angle
Groomsman
Keane and Christopher moved from acquaintances to bros rather quickly after meeting each other in Colorado. The two have enjoyed many nights of bourbon and spicy cigars while discussing the things that make the world go round. Of all Christopher's friends, Keane has surprisingly embraced the Aquavit tradition most fondly - and for that, we thank you!
Leslie Dimmitt
Bridesmaid
Gianna and Leslie became fast friends at Gianna's first Phish concert at the Gorge in 2016. Leslies husband, Kevin, and Christopher have been friends forever and grew up together. Gianna and Leslie have remained close friends and even lived down the street from each other in Colorado for a while. While they live far away from each other now, they still reconnect often and it's like no time has passed once they get together again!
Kevin Dimmitt
Groomsman
Christopher and Kevin have known each other since their Moorpark childhood. They've remained best of friends through their shared love for a 4-piece band - The Phish from Vermont! The two have attended countless concerts together and have had a hell of a fun time doing it. They even enjoyed a short stint as neighbors in Louisville, Colorado.
