Wedding Party

Meet our friends & family that will be walking with us down the aisle

Kristen Lemieux

Maid of Honor

Kristen has been from there from the start (literally) of Connor and I's relationship. We became close living on the same floor of the sorority house. Throughout college we took many classes (RIP Bio 1102), ate probably too much grab-and-go, and have had countless fun times together after college (which frequently include visiting local breweries and Jonas Brothers concerts). I am so thankful to have a friend like Kristen to support me throughout this process and be with me on my big day!


Adam Heislein

Best Man

I met Adam freshman year of college and we’ve been close ever since. We’ve bonded through golf trips, a mutual love for Boston sports, and Zac Brown during trying times. Adam is the kind of friend that is down for anything, whether that’s a spontaneous trip to Buffalo in -10 degree weather for a Pats game, or skipping our afternoon classes for a twilight round of golf - he always keeps it interesting. I am so honored to have him next to me on this special day.

Kileigh Basile

Matron of Honor

Kileigh was my first friend after transferring middle schools. Our lockers were right next to one another and Kileigh was literally my guiding light through that transition. It's safe to say that this has been a continued theme throughout our friendship. Kileigh is the first one to celebrate with me, and also the one to give me advice when needed. Friends like Kileigh are ones to be treasured, and there was no question I needed to have her as a part of this special day!


Jeff Baroody

Best Man

Jeff was the first person I met at UConn. We were roommates for 2 years, and were both engineering majors in college. Since graduation, we have stayed in constant communication despite him living out west in AZ, over our bond in movie culture and golfing. For the many golf trips we've been on together, and the ones we planned for the future, Jeff has always been my partner in matches against our other friends. We are so happy to have him as a part of our big day, and even more happy to have him back on the east coast with us!

Allie Martin

Bridesmaid

Allie is easily one of the most fun and outgoing people I have ever met. She undoubtedly brings the party wherever she goes, but aside from that, is also one of the most thoughtful friends. Allie and I met during a flag football league (Me playing sports- crazy, I know). Our friendship grew from picking out football cleats, to heart-to-heart talks on long hikes and ice cream sundae nights, to a spontaneous trip to Niagra Falls for a Pats game (#letsgobuffalo), and weekly bachelor viewings. I'm so excited to have Allie with me on my wedding day, and so grateful to have her in my life!


Kunal Kothari

Groomsman

Kunal has been there since the start of Alex and I’s relationship. Right around the time Kunal joined my fraternity, was when I started dating Alex. From there, Kunal has grown close to the both of us, and I'm glad to call him one of my most genuine, loyal friends. After college, we lived in close proximity in CT, so we saw each other fairly often at each others apartments, or happy hours, etc. - So happy to have him with us on our big day!

Rachel Elliott

Bridesmaid

I met Rachel in graduate school and we quickly became friends during orientation. We frequently share SLP stories, and of course, get together with our other best friend, Caitlin, whenever we can. Aside from being incredibly smart and funny, Rachel is the kind of friend I know I can always count on. I knew my wedding day wouldn't be complete without her there, and I'm so thankful she will be with me throughout this whole experience!


Christian Iuteri

Groomsman

Christian was one of my very first college friends. In the first week at the dining hall, I didn't know anybody to sit with, but recognized Christian from my hall and he invited me to sit with his friends. From there, we spent a lot of time together, either hanging out at the dorm, playing pickup basketball/football, or rushing a fraternity. I lived with him off campus for the remainder of my college years, and he is one of the funniest people I know, and always keeps the group laughing. I can’t wait to have him with us on our big day.

Caitlin Emmett

Bridesmaid

I met Caitlin in grad school and we bonded through torturous Simucase portals and long classes, but made it through nonetheless! Whenever we get together, it is constant laughs and I am reminded of how lucky I am to have someone like Caitlin in my life! Caitlin goes out of her to show people she cares about them, and I am so grateful for our friendship and the support she has consistently showed me since we met. I can't wait for the all the amazing memories we will make together!


Connor Carville

Groomsman

Connor and I have known each other since high school. I was the new kid freshman year at a big high school, so I thought it was a good idea to make friends with someone with the same name as me, just so it would confuse everyone. My first semester I sat next to Connor in geometry class, and spent the rest of the year getting in trouble for talking too much. He remained one of most closest friends all throughout high school. Even to this day, we always pick up where we left off when we get together, no matter the time or the miles between us. It was a no brainer to have him a part of my wedding day.

Sarah Gaffney-Cobb

Bridesmaid

The first time we met, Sarah was bringing hangover cure bagels and Advil to us after Connor's car broke down on the way to formal. Since then, we have grown close over a love of Downeast and Jonas Brothers, (these 2 things interact especially well during our kitchen-concerts after a long summer night). Sarah has shown me (& Connor) endless amounts of love and support throughout our relationship. I can't wait to finally make it official, and have a sister as sweet as Sarah!


Eli Cobb

Groomsman

Eli is now my brother-in-law, but before then he was truly like a brother to me. I've known him for 10+ years, starting with our days on the high school hockey team, to the days we worked at the same golf course, and we've grown closer and closer over time. We spend a lot of our time laughing at stupid internet memes, playing an outdated Wii golf video game, and playing weekend golf matches at the course. Alex and Eli's bond is also very special, as the two of them share a good sense of humor. Can't wait to have him with us on our wedding day.

Delaney Crawford

Bridesmaid

Delaney and I met through Sarah's wedding. It was obvious to me that we would be great friends after seeing Delaney whip out the Ho-Down Throw-Down spontaneously from memory at Sarah's Bachelorette. Delaney is the definition of a kind soul, and I was honored to support her as a bridesmaid in her wedding. Of course, I knew I had to return the favor and ask Delaney to be in mine; shoutout to Sarah for introducing us... I am so thankful for our friendship!


Michael Hoeing

Groomsman

Michael and I met in high school, thanks to my sister befriending his older brother in high school before I got there. A lot of my high school weekend nights were spent at the Hoeing's for bonfire nights. And if that wasn't enough, the Hoeing's even let us borrow their home in Puerto Rico for a post-HS graduation trip. Mike has always been a close friend of mine and a true, stand up guy. We can't wait to have him as a part of our wedding day.

Scott & Devery Gara

Officiants

Scott and Devery are Connor's cousins, Scott being the son of Connor's late Godfather, Uncle Pat. We have spent almost every Thanksgiving with Scott and Dev since we started dating, and every year we have grown to admire them more and more. The amount of shock they were in when we asked them to officiate our wedding truly shows how humble they are. We could not be more excited for Scott and Dev to help us take our first steps on this journey. We hope that our marriage will be filled with as much love, kindness and support for each other as theirs is. Scott and Dev, thank you for being such incredible people and partners, we are so grateful that you get to play such an important role in our wedding!


Jay Mavani

Groomsman

Jay and I have been great friends since the first week of college. Living on the same floor as me, his room was the hangout spot for the entire floor. We lived together senior year and spent several hours golfing, playing NHL, or playing ping pong at the house. To this day, we both remain in CT and stay in close contact. I'm confident that Jay is friend that I can always count on, because I know how much he cares for myself, Alex, and our relationship, so I'm happy to have him there on my wedding day.

Sofia Salinas

Junior Bridesmaid

Sofia and I's families have been close since before Sofia was born. Ultimately, I see Sofia as a little sister, and I knew Sofia had to be a part of our big day. We do a lot together including plotting when our families can get together next, getting matching ear-piercings, and FINALLY dancing together in the Nutcracker at Connecticut Concert Ballet-my home dance studio. I am so excited to have Sofia involved in our wedding!


Michael Nelson

Junior Groomsman

The brother of the bride needs little introduction-- everyone knows Mike as a fun-loving guy, with a contagious smile, and jokes to spare. Although he's a Packers fan, we won't hold that against him, and we are so honored to have him with us on our special day! Catch you on the dance floor lil bro!
