Wedding Party
Danielle Bright
Matron of Honor
Danielle and I have been inseparable since 4th grade, and our bond has only grown stronger over the years. Our families have shared countless memories together, from board game nights to skiing trips every winter. One of our favorite traditions is attending the Jones Beach Air Show every summer. Danielle has been by my side through every milestone, and her support means the world to me. I am beyond grateful to have her as my best friend, and I couldn't imagine my wedding day without her standing beside me as my matron of honor.

Laura Messina
Bridesmaid
Laura came into my life through family, but she quickly became so much more than just a sister-in-law — she’s become a true friend. From day one, her kindness and fun-loving spirit made her easy to connect with, and I’m so lucky to have her as part of my family. I’m beyond grateful to have Laura standing by my side on this special day. I’m excited to continue growing our bond as family, friends, and supporters of one another through every chapter of life.

Meagan Eufemia
Bridesmaid
I am so excited to have Meagan by my side as a bridesmaid on this special day! Not only is she soon to be my sister-in-law, but we’ve also become great friends over the years. From the very start, we’ve shared so many laughs together, and her sense of humor is contagious. Whether we’re joking around or just enjoying each other’s company, she always knows how to make me smile. I’m so grateful for her friendship and the bond we’ve built, and I can’t wait to share this incredible day with her by my side.

Nicolette Wilson
Bridesmaid
Nicolette and I first met on the track and field team at East Meadow High School, and from that moment on, we became inseparable. Our friendship grew stronger as we visited each other at college, sharing laughs, memories, and of course, plenty of fun at parties and clubs. Through every adventure, Nicolette has been by my side, always ready for the next great experience. Now, as teachers, we share not only a passion for education but also a love for spending our summers at the beach, relaxing and recharging. Nicolette’s energy, kindness, and sense of adventure make her an amazing friend, and I feel incredibly lucky to have her as one of my bridesmaids. I can’t wait to make even more unforgettable memories with her as we celebrate this special day!

Kim Bascelli
Bridesmaid
Kim and I go way back—we first connected in 2014 through the SUNY Cortland Class of 2018 Facebook group while searching for a roommate. We met at a Dunkin’ Donuts (very on brand) and realized we only lived five minutes apart. From there, the rest was history. We ended up living together all throughout college, surviving everything from long car rides home to wild nights out. There are too many memories to count—like the time I dropped an entire bottle of vodka in our dorm room (RIP), or when Kim got kicked out of the bar for, let’s just say, not feeling her best. We even walked across the graduation stage together! Through all the chaos, laughs, and late-night heart-to-hearts, Kim has been a constant. I’m so lucky to still have her in my life, and I’m beyond excited to have her standing by my side as a bridesmaid.

Alyssa Facci
Bridesmaid
Alyssa and I actually went to the same high school (East Meadow!), but since she was two years ahead of me, we only knew of each other back then. Fast forward a few years—when Justin and I started dating, I found out Alyssa was best friends with Meagan, Justin’s sister (who lived just two houses down from him on Barbara Drive). The three of us became close, and over the years, Alyssa has become one of my favorite people. She’s the life of the party—truly. From her legendary beer pong tournaments to her infectious energy, Alyssa brings the fun wherever she goes. She’s not just my friend; she’s Justin’s friend too, and we’re so lucky to have her standing by our side on our big day.

Melissa Emilio
Bridesmaid
Melissa and I first met when Kim, Melissa, and I were randomly tripled together at SUNY Cortland. At first, Kim and I weren’t sure how it would go—Melissa was from upstate New York, and we were from Long Island, living totally different lives. But it didn’t take long for us to realize we’d found a forever friend. We bonded quickly through our time on the Cortland Track & Field Team and as education majors. We always signed up for the same classes, studied together nonstop, and pushed each other through every assignment. Melissa and I were also roommates for all four years of college. While she wasn’t always out partying with us, she was always waiting up to make sure Kim and I got home safe. She was—and still is—the “mom” of the group. Whether it was helping us fill air in our car tires or taking care of me during a two-day track meet in Pennsylvania when I got the sickest I’ve ever been, Melissa was always there, and had it covered. And our friendship didn’t stop after graduation—every summer for the past 11 years (and counting), we’ve kept our tradition of going to a Jones Beach country concert. It's one of my favorite things we do, and it’s just another reminder of how special she is in my life. I’m so lucky to have Melissa’s loyalty, heart, and steady presence by my side—on this day and always.
