Megan & Brandon
Wedding Party
Sarah Viaud
Matron of Honor
My big sister alway has my back. Before I could even talk, Sarah understood me on a deeper level than one would ever think possible. We always finished each other’s sentences—and still do. They say a sister is a forever friend. This couldn’t be any truer, and I am grateful for the irreplaceable bond that we share.
Matthew Bubba
Best Man
My older brother, best friend, and role model. Matthew has always been my biggest fan and pushes me to be the best version of myself. From important life lessons, to the little things, like sports, travel plans, and getting me to try new foods (aka sushi), Matthew is there. 3,425 miles has never come between us. I couldn’t ask for a greater best man.
Julieanne Fontana
Bridesmaid
Julieanne, better known as “Dubs,” is one of my oldest friends. When I look back on some of the most memorable moments of my childhood, chances are, Dubs is in them. While we may not have fulfilled our dream of finding twins to marry so we would be “related” and connected forever, I now realize that this was never necessary. Dubs will always be there, ranger hat on, ready for our next wacky adventure.
Josh Gregory
Groomsman
Josh and I have been friends since the third grade when he still ate pizza and ice cream. He is one of the nicest, smartest, and most dedicated people I know. I can count on Josh for almost anything, including a phone call every Sunday. I know I have a lifelong friend in Josh.
Lauren Bruchansky
Bridesmaid
If I could pick one friend that can get me out of my comfort zone, it’s Lauren. She is someone that I can trust and rely on through and through. We lived together for a total of 8 years (both college and Stamford), and have never had one fight—only lots of laughs and far too many memories to count. And of course, she’s the best matchmaker out there. :) From the second I saw Lauren roll down our dorm hallway wrapped up in a blanket like a burrito, I knew we’d be great friends.
Frankie Porcelli
Groomsman
Frankie is one of those people that you’ll never forget. And if you don’t know him yet, I can assure you that you will by the end of my wedding night. I remember the first time I met Frankie in the quad on campus. We immediately hit it off, and the rest is history. We became college roommates and did everything together, from sporting events and partying, to studying for major exams. Frankie is the life of the party and my lifelong friend.
Amanda Russo
Bridesmaid
When Amanda and I are together, the result often ends in a beautiful disaster—something absent minded and clueless, but memorable nonetheless. Getting lost is basically a given, but we laugh it off and make it fun. I’ll always remember our summer pool nights, concerts, beach days, Girl Scout trips, binge watching The OC, and of course, our infamous flour fight in my kitchen, which my mom still talks about to this day. Put simply, there is never a dull moment when “Manz” is around, and I wouldn’t want it any other way!
Alex Vivenzio
Groomsman
Alex, “The Jungleman,” is another fellow Stag and my senior year roommate. After graduating, we both ended up in Stamford, CT. Alex is one of those easy-going people that’s down for a drink or spontaneous adventure at any time. I can always count on him to be there and make me laugh with his “classic Alex” one liners. My wedding party wouldn’t be complete without him.
Kelly Zrenda
Bridesmaid
I am forever grateful to Fairfield University for rooming me with Kelly freshman year. Although at the time we were both skeptical, by the end of our first night on campus, I knew we’d be great friends. Kelly is down-to-earth, easy going, and enjoys the simple things—like a movie night with raisinets, and a large, blue Icee. Some of my best college memories are with Kelly (and of course, our honorary “third roommate” Marty, as well).
Keaton Austin
Groomsman
Keaton and I were meant to be friends. We were randomly paired together as roommates during our month long orientation in London. Even though he lived on the other side of the country, we stayed in touch, and he later moved to Connecticut where we became roommates again. Whether watching sports, getting late night Taco Bell, or talking about work, Keaton has always been a go-to friend. I can trust him with anything and can’t wait to have him by my side this June.
Lauren Proda
Bridesmaid
To some, she's Lauren. To me, she is, and always will be, "Prode." If I had to describe Prode in one word, it would be patient. She's my go-to person for my dumbest questions and most embarrassing moments. No matter what the situation, she is always willing to help and make me laugh and feel better along the way. In high school we called each other on an average of probably 15 times per day--no lie. Although now we may not talk quite as often, (which is definitely a good thing), Prode always shows up with a smile and positive attitude that never fails to brighten my day.
Adam Gutekunst
Groomsman
Adam has been in my life for as long as I can remember. We grew up playing youth sports together and had countless sleepovers playing video games all night long. To this day, not much has changed. Most of our conversations revolve around sports, but occasionally Adam will tell one of his famous stories that make me laugh every time. Adam has always been one of the nicest and most easy going guys around. I do not know life without Adam, and my wedding party wouldn’t be complete without him.
Mary Grace DeSantis
Bridesmaid
Everything with Mary Grace is a new adventure (my curly-haired partner in crime!). Her spirit and zest for life are infectious. Although we had great times together at Fairfield, our friendship only grew stronger after college when she joined Lauren and me in Stamford as our third roommate. There are not many people who feel for others the way that Mary Grace does—your happiness is her happiness. She is a beautiful person inside and out. It’s impossible to have a bad day when “MGD” is around.
Spencer Colpitts
Groomsman
Spencer was my freshman year college roommate, only for the second half. We met when we decided to start a radio show together called BS Sports Talk. When I think of Spencer, I think of a genuinely good guy who cares. He has the best conversations and has taught me a lot of important things in life including how to understand a Boston accent. I never knew what a bubbler or wedge was until I met Spencer. “Good times never seemed so good!”
Hayley Shaw
Bridesmaid
Hayley, more commonly referred to as “Shaw,” is the life of the party. Growing up, our funniest moments and classic one liners most likely involved Shaw. From lunchtime Dunkin’ runs, to prank phone calls, making up crazy nicknames, and of course, watching movies together while she quotes every line (and she knows A LOT of lines), everything with Shaw is one-of-a-kind and a whole lot of fun.
Cam Pierzga
Groomsman
Cam is my cousin and good friend. We have had a ton of fun over the years. Whether it is playing board games with the family, playing wiffle ball in the backyard, or going shopping on Black Friday, Cam is always ready for a new game or adventure. I look forward to many more games and laughs together, and always having him as a big part of our family.
Jill Marsigliano
Bridesmaid
Not many people can say they’ve been friends since kindergarten. For as long as I can remember, Jill has brought laughter and joy to every situation. She is kind, thoughtful, and good-spirited, with the perfect amount of “Jill” moments to match my typical “Meg” moments. I am grateful for our friendship every day—23 years and counting!
Taylor Holko
Groomsman
Taylor is like family to me. I love him like a brother. Our families have vacationed together since we were born. Taylor is always down for a round of golf or a 5 am fishing trip. He has been there for all my major life events... and here’s another one for the books!
