Wedding Party

Seamus Caulfield

Father of the Bride

My dad, my best friend, my boss, my marathon running pal, my own personal Tony Robbins life coach. Thank you does not even come close to enough for everything this role model does for me. You mean the absolute world to me-I love you dad! I don't care what anyone says I know I truly have the best dad in the entire world!

Bernadette Caulfield

Mother of the Bride

There came a time in our lives and I can't pin point it exactly where we went from mother/daughter to best friends. I am so lucky to have a relationship with my mom that turned into this and I will always cherish our bike rides, beach walks, wine Wednesdays, scary movie halloweens, chips and salsa for dinner, "you got this!" encouragements, silly laughs, and travel aspirations. My main supporter. I love you more!(no take backs)

Erin Angelilli

Maid of Honor

My sister, my maid of honor, and my sound board whenever I need to vent. Complete opposites but we always got each others back. Love her to death and super happy I can have my sis by my side on my special day. Thanks for everything Erin. She is the one who will be part of every decision I have throughout the planning process...the decision maker(or guider) to everything/anything and for that I am forever grateful!

Gaby Reyno

Bridesmaid

My childhood best friend. Wow-over 20 years of an absolutely amazing friendship filled with laughter and adventures. We talk nearly every day and she is my dancing spirit. She took me in as a roommate even though it stirred the pot with one of her other roommates (cough cough David). A true friend who I know will be a forever friend. Thanks for standing by me G wags!

Jackie Banks

Bridesmaid

My college best friend and roommate-the reason I survived college in upstate NY, really. If it was not for her I would have left Oneonta and this wedding would never be happening because Matt and I's romance began the last year of college-so let's all thank Jackie. So happy to have such a wonderful person in my life and thank you so much for standing by my side!

Ciara Yerkey

Bridesmaid

My "get into trouble" best friend. We spend time talking about future goals/ambitions/crazy ideas. She is my old boss and my old gym workout buddy. Gave me a job, took me places when I didn't have a car, and used her gym guest pass for me when I was in a lull. She also is one of the few girls that I lose to when we play volleyball/spike ball. Love you lots and thanks for standing by my side and challenging me.

Alyson (Future) Skorupski

Bridesmaid

My running bestie and daily texting buddy. We challenge each other and bring out the best in one another. She is an ambitious human with great energy who I was lucky to become amazing friends with in college. We both lived in NYC at the same time and love to do things and explore. Thanks for standing by my side-love you!

Raquel Caulfield

Bridesmaid

My brothers wife and my sister! He really found the pick of the parish and I am so blessed to have this chill, go with the flow individual as my sister. You always know to not take things so seriously and look on the bright side. Thanks for standing by me and being such a wonderful friend!

Rachel Blanchard

Bridesmaid

Matts sister and my new sister! One of the most helpful, creative people I know. She is my go to with any questions related to spray tans or makeup, lol. I am so glad we got to take a trip to California together and share some amazing experiences. Thank you for being so warm to me when I first started dating your brother and standing by my side on such a special day!

Grace Blanchard

Bridesmaid

Another one of Matts sisters and I like to think the wild one of the bunch! Crazy I think you were in middle school when we started dating and now you are grown up at college. I can not wait for you to be part of our special day and thank you for playing soccer with me in the backyard all the time.

Ella Blanchard

Bridesmaid

Wow three new sisters-lucky me! Ella, aka cheeky little leftovers, I always tell Matt you make me laugh the most out of everyone in your family. I can not wait to have you by my side on such a special day and thank you for always cracking little jokes.

Ann Blanchard

Mother of the Groom

Dave Blanchard

Father of the Groom

Sandy Blanchard

Step Mother of the Groom

Kyle Garguilo

Best Man

Best friends since 8th grade, Kyle and grew up across the street from each other in Gloversville, NY. Kyle currently lives in NYC, studying to gain entrance to medical school with aspirations to become a plastic surgeon. If you don't see him in central park studying for the MCAT, you'll find him at Naif's in Gloversville doing scratch offs.

Moktar Malas

Groomsman

Mok was my roommate in his first year of medical school. Originally from Syria, he attended UMASS undergrad and is currently a resident physician at Newark Beth Israel, practicing Obstetrics and Gynecology. You will be sure to see him on the dance floor the whole night, just like he was back at "the brewery" in Grenada after a big exam.

Emilio Issa

Groomsman

Emilio, was one of my roommates at SGU and is now one of his closest friends. Originally from Suriname, he went to Undergrad at University of Miami. He is a resident physician at Detroit Medical Center practicing Psychiatry. Fun fact, he can speak 5 languages, and was the main reason the crew didn't get lost on their recent trip to South America.

Hussein Abu-hashish

Groomsman

Hussein is another one of my roommates while on the Island of Grenada. Originally from Jordan, he went to undergrad at the University of Maryland. He is currently a resident physician at LIJ Forest Hills in Queens practicing internal medicine. Hussein is the life of the party and will be sure to be seen doing cartwheels on the dance floor. He is the comedian of the group, and the more nervous he is, the funnier his jokes.

Hassan Abu-hashish

Groomsman

Hassan, yet another roommate of mine while at SGU. As you might have guessed, he is Hussein's brother. He attended undergrad at University of Maryland. He is a resident physician at NYP Brooklyn Methodist hospital in Brooklyn, practicing internal medicine. He is definitely the grandpa of the group. If he is asleep in his chair, it is likely past his 9pm bed time, so grab him an espresso to get him back on the dance floor!

Conor Caulfield

Groomsman

Shannon’s brother and pretty much her idol. Growing up and even to this day Shannon wanted to do everything Conor did. If he was skipping school to go snowboarding so was Shannon. If he was waking up at 5 a.m. to surf before class so was Shannon. Shannon grew up wanting to be just like her brother and to this day she admires his chill personality and his ability to know what to say in ANY situation. Hopefully he makes it to the wedding because he might be deployed-but no matter what he will be there in spirit! He had a major influence on Shannon growing up and he taught her how to be tough because if she could not keep up with him he was not waiting lol!

Brandon Mcnitt

Groomsman

Brandon is another of my closest friends from medical school. Originally from LA, he attended Stony Brook. He was then drafted by the Houston Astros as a pitcher. When he found out they were cheating, he quit baseball because he didn't agree and decided to pursue a career in medicine. Brandon is currently applying to residency in anesthesia, the best medical field out there!

Andrew White

Groomsman

One of my closest cousins, I remember hanging out with Andrew during summer vacations growing up. I always looked up to him as a role model. He definitely always had my back whenever I needed it. However I'll never forget the all the battle royales that took place in our grandparents basement, of which I never won, and always ended with his feet in my face. Nonetheless, he was always there for his little cousin.

Patrick White

Groomsman

My older cousin Pat, the guy who paved the way for the Blanchard's in grade school. All the upper classes were cool with me because they knew I was his little cousin. As a result I grew up thinking, wow if I could be as cool and chill as Pat, I'll be set! As we get older, Pat is the go to guy to know where the best breweries are in the area, so don't be surprised if you find yourself joining us at Modern Times in for a delicious west coast IPA. Fortunately the Giants can't lose in April, so you wont hear us complaining about their persistent woes!
