Wedding Party

Michaela Laviolette

Matron of Honor

Michaela and I met at a lobster shack when travel nursing placed her in Portsmouth. We bonded quickly over our love for dogs (mostly her dog, Henry) and coffee. From that, a friendship blossomed. From searching for new coffee spots, seasonal walks, and watching her love story come to life- our short friendship has been nothing but sweet. We also have a great habit of trying to make Matt a dog person (this is still unsuccessful). Michaela has the kindest and most gentle heart and I cannot wait to have her by our sides.

Brooke Samora

Maid of Honor

Brooke and I met our sophomore year of college and became the best of friends in Lab 3 of the Paul College kitchen. From terribly seasoned soup to well overcooked pasta, we somehow passed the class and started our friendship based on lots of laughter. Brooke is the epitome of a great time and an even better friend. She is selfless and kind and I could not imagine this special day without her there!

Jillian Nichols

Bridesmaid

It was one of my favorite days when my brother Kevin texted me and said "this is my girlfriend, Jillian". Woohoo! Jillian has been a part of our family for two years now and I am so excited to continue to make memories with her. She is one of the sweetest and most delightful people I have had the pleasure of getting to know and I am so grateful to have her as a friend.

Acadia Momm-White

Bridesmaid

Acadia and I met because of Matt and I am so grateful for that. Our memories together have been nothing but fun and full of laughs. She is ambitious, kind and is the type of friend that will cheer you on for anything and everything. Acadia has the uncanny ability to light up any room she walks into and has a true heart of gold. I am so glad Matt has great taste in friends, I am so honored to have her by our side.

Craig Weatherbee

Best Man

Craig and I met my sophomore year at UNH and quickly bonded over the Red Sox and obscure references to historical events. Throughout the rest of our time in college, we had tons of adventures, from intramural sports, to rock climbing, to watching baseball games. Our current favorite activities are cycling and “being super annoying”, according to Emma (and the rest of our friends). Craig is the most fiercely loyal best friend anyone could ask for, and I am so grateful he is in our lives!

Evan Silva

Groomsman

Evan and I met our freshman year at UNH. I, like many others over the years, was captivated by Evan’s effortless style, humor, and charisma. When we first met, Evan was a few years deep into posting a picture of some form of juice every day, something he called “Daily Juice”. Although the Daily Juice ended long ago, our friendship has carried on. I’m so thankful to have a friend like Evan.

Liam Kenific

Groomsman

Liam was one of the RAs in my dorm freshman year, and despite him not letting me hang my hammock from the third floor of the stairwell (I now see how crazy that was), we became fast friends. Liam is incredibly kind and supportive, believing in his friends no matter the circumstances. Anyone would be lucky to have a pal like Liam, and I am glad to have him by our side.

Ryan Durant

Groomsman

Ryan and I first met when I was a newborn baby. We grew up sharing a room for the better part of 18 years. We had our fair share of brotherly bickering and didn't always get along, but we can always come back to debating whether or not Hanley Ramirez was a good defensive first baseman for the Red Sox in 2016. I look forward to kicking his butt in fantasy sports of all varieties for decades to come. Emma and I are glad to have Ryan and his family in our lives!

Kevin Bragg

Groomsman

Kevin and I hit it off immediately when we met, bonding over our love of Boston sports and the great outdoors. Kevin and I can often be found giggling over the dumbest videos we can find online while Emma and Jillian shake their heads in displeasure. I look forward to making more memories with Kevin, and maybe playing a round or two of golf at some of the worst courses New Hampshire has to offer.

Eric Bragg

Groomsman

Eric has been nothing but supportive for Emma and I and always wants the best for us! He always has our back and I appreciate how much he cares! I can’t wait to have him by our sides and to make more memories together, especially disc golf in the future!
