Wedding Party
Julia Canuel
Maid of Honor
Julia is my sister. A girl who can truly do it all. Bake - have you ever had your cupcakes? Well if not - you are in luck since she is making our dessert for the wedding. Music - she can play the viola! My sister is the best kind of person a human could be, compassionate and loving in every way. I am so fortunate that one of my best friends was one that I can also call family.
Ross Shore
Best Man
Ross is my best man, and I'm not sure who else I would want to fulfill that role. Ross and I have been friends since summer camp as kids where he was just the goofy kid with a rat tail hair cut! Ross loves to party and is always the first one on the dance floor. Between all we have been through in high school, USY, and even college, I can confidently say Ross is one of the best friends someone can have.
Mara Schulze
Bridesmaid
My amazing, dog-loving soon-to-be sister in law, Mara is the most down to earth person I know who still knows how to have the best time. From skiing across the country to trying new restaurants in New England, Mara is some of the best company around, she listens to what you have to say and offers some of the best advice! The two of us have ensured that Noah's family is full of fur-grand-babies. If you see Evan - tell him he should get another dog.
Evan Schulze
Groomsman
Evan is my brother, my first friend, and the only one who knows how to annoy me with as little as one sentence. He's only about 2 years older than me, so we were always super competitive in, well, everything! From soccer to grades, we always had an unspoken level of competition which drove us both to become better. Evan is probably one of the smartest people I know - a literal rocket scientist! If you see him...also tell him that he and Mara should get another dog!
Sierra Brown
Bridesmaid
Sierra is 1/2 of the couple that introduced Noah and me... I guess you could say she is responsible for this wedding! I have known Sierra since middle school, where we would sit in front of our lockers every morning through senior year graduation and debrief daily. It is hard to believe that over 12 years have gone by since our friendship started.
Kyle Moynihan
Groomsman
Kyle is the other half of the couple that set Emily and me up. I met Kyle during freshman year of college when we both transferred to UMass Amherst after rocky first semesters at our respective schools. Luckily, we were put into the same suite in the transfer dorms and became fast friends! I never imagined going from trapping a mouse in your dorm room to having you by my side at my wedding, but I wouldn't want it any other way.
Stephanie Robertson
Bridesmaid
Steph is the life of any room that she enters, through her positivity and... her dance moves. My singing soul sister, she is someone to watch out for on the dance floor. Steph is part of the reason that I was able to get through pharmacy school with my head still attached to my shoulders, she studied hard, but made room for fun, a lesson that can be tough to learn!
James Hammond
Groomsman
James is the type of friend that everybody needs. He listens well and offers his perspective, he's level headed and calm, and he always knows how to make someone laugh. James and I met through our college a cappella group Duly Noted. We became friends almost instantly, sharing many interests and hobbies. James is the type of person who will make sure everyone feels included and valued.
Jaidyn Dejesus
Bridesmaid
Jaidyn and I met studying for Chemistry, we worked together, lived together, and despite all of the time we spent with each other, we still loved each other's company. Jaidyn is one of my dearest friends who cares for others so deeply. Jaidyn is the other reason I made it through pharmacy school. Our day-long study sessions, followed by a walk on the beach helped us both push through some very busy days.
Daniel Carter
Groomsman
While I am not sure exactly where and when Dan and I met, it feels like we have been friends for many years more than we have. Dan is one of James' best friends, so it is no surprise that Dan and I became friends so easily. He's quick with a joke and has an infectious smile that brightens any room he enters. Dan is kind, clever, and very smart - he knows a lot of German and even worked over there for a few months!
Autumn Rayray
Bridesmaid
Autumn and I have truly grown up together, being friends since elementary school, we have gone from playing with American Girl Dolls to planning our weddings and future. We have had so many adventures, from camping, hiking, and some kayak excursions, Autumn is a fellow nature lover who is able to take in and enjoy the world around her. I could not have asked for a better friend to grow up with!
William Gerald
Groomsman
Will and I have been friends for a few years now, and for nearly that entire time we have spoken basically every day for at least an hour or more. Whether that be in person or while gaming, we chat about life, career, hobbies - really just anything! We constantly find ourselves laughing too hard to talk and accidentally waking up Leo from his naps. It's a privilege to be friends with Will, and I am glad he is going to be beside me!
Julia Serra
Bridesmaid
I don't know where I would be without Julia, although the name-twin to my sister has led to confusion when I do not explain exactly which Julia I am talking about. Julia and I were roommates in college for four years! We have seen lots of spiders, tears from chemistry exams, snow angels on the quad, and lots of Netflix shows in our time together. I could not have been more lucky to get to live with someone so amazing for four years of my life. If you get Julia's ear ask her how well a colander works to mix pasta and sauce, and how long it takes to clean.
Nicky Donovan
Groomsman
Nicky and I also met through Duly Noted, and we became friends almost right away. He finds such an amazing way to express himself through music, whether it be him singing it or writing and producing it. Nicky is a wonderful, caring person that continually builds up the people around him. He, James, and I actually worked together in the final course I took in my undergrad - and celebrated my "graduation" as we submitted the final! If you see Nicky, ask him for his artist name on Spotify!
Stephen Deyo
Officiant
Our officiant, Stephen, is Emily's cousin who is the most charismatic, competitive, and caring person we know. From playing kickball in their grandparents cul-de-sac, to throwing some serious dice rolls in Mario Party, Stephen is always the center of having a great time. We are so excited to have Stephen share his words for our wedding day!
