Wedding Party
Alexandria Tracy
Maid of Honor
Alex and I met at UConn and have been inseparable ever since. Throughout my journey from CT to NY to CA she has been by my side and I am honored to have her as my closest friend. Alex is the life of the party and incredibly smart and kind. She makes for an excellent travel partner and even better friend.
Amber DeRobertis
Bridesmaid
Amber and I met in biology lab at UConn. I think it was the first and only time in our friendship that I was on time and she was late to class. The only seat available was next to me and we've been by each other's side ever since. Amber has the biggest heart of anyone I've met. I am thankful for our friendship everyday.
Miranda Gosselin
Bridesmaid
Miranda and I met in the 6th grade, making her my oldest friend. She was new to the school and seemed to outshine everyone in the class; so, naturally I wanted to be her friend. Since that time, she has pushed me to become the best version of myself. She is the most loyal and dependable friend a girl could have. I am so excited to have her by my side today and always.
Mallory Jones
Bridesmaid
Mallory and I met our sophomore year of college, when I visited a mutual friend at the University of South Carolina. Since then, we kept in touch, but it was when she moved to the bay that our friendship truly bloomed. I am so grateful every day that we ended up near each other. Mallory is a "ride or die" kind of friend. It is impossible to enter a room she is in and not be drawn to her. Thank you for making my time in CA that much better.
Sarah Hanrahan
Bridesmaid
Sarah was my first friend in CA! She was my partner in travel and my dinner date before I met Matt. It's unfair that she was blessed with such beauty, brilliance, and kindness, but you can’t help but love her. As a fellow school psych, Sarah has helped me better my career, but I am most thankful that our friendship exceeded our work relationship. Without her, I don't think I would have lasted long enough in the Bay to meet Matt.
Dominic Scillitani
Best Man
I've known Dom since we were kids growing up battling each other in little league. We ended up being good friends in high school and on the wrestling team together Freshman year and also the baseball team. Dom ended up following me to Arizona State where we were roommates for a few years, studied abroad in Australia for a semester, and maybe partied just a little (but not much). We have also done some crazy traveling adventures in South East Asia, Australia, and Egypt.
Vincent Palopoli
Groomsman
Vinnie has been a good adventure buddy. I first met him through another groomsman, David Richards, when he brought his high school buddy, Vinnie, with him to our year long Australia adventure after college. Vinnie went from, "Who's this random guy" to a great friend pretty quickly. After Australia we have gone on several adventures; hiking to Everest Base Camp in Nepal, backpacking Patagonia in Chile/ Argentina, and several other roadtrips.
James Zuegner
Groomsman
Jimmy was one of my first friends in the Real Estate industry when I first got my license nearly 10 years ago. He is a mortgage guy and I a Real Estate guy and we were both young fresh faces trying to establish ourselves in the industry. We became good friends outside of work where we mainly play golf, or rather I try to golf while he does his best not to make fun of me and gives me an occasional swing tip. He has also been a great running partner and we have done several marathons together which makes up for my bad golfing since I am just slightly faster than him.
Brant Bookhamer
Groomsman
I met Brant in college at ASU when we both rushed the Delta Chi fraternity. We quickly became good friends there and ended up being roommates from our Sophomore to Senior years where we had lots of adventures studying abroad in Australia, snowboarding trips, being bananas every halloween, and getting into several wrestling matches when we annoyed each other.
David Richards
Groomsman
I met Dave my freshman year of college when we both rushed the Delta Chi fraternity. We became good friends and threw some pretty great parties at ASU. After college we both had an urge to explore a bit and have met several places around the world; living together in Australia for a year, South East Asia adventures and exploring Buenos Aires.
Donald Protzmann
Groomsman
Manny is Emily's little brother (not so little in reality, 6'3"). We have just been getting to know each other over the last 3 years and I couldn't have asked for a better brother in law. We both enjoy golfing, talking sports, and good music. Looking forward to the years to come!
Nicholas Fisher
Groomsman
I met Nick in high school where we were both on the Baseball team. Sophomore year he was always the catcher for me while I was pitching. Things went well for the most part but when they went south we would have a mound visit where we would make jokes and got things back in line. To this day Nick and I are still great friends.
