Wedding Party
Emma Horanic
Bride
The first thing everyone told her when she became a diver was "don't get with a diver". The first thing she did was get with a diver. It was the best decision she ever made.
Devin Rockwell
Groom
Slightly confused about what's going on, only knows there's a party with free food and he was invited.
Sydney Horanic
Maid of Honor
Twin sister, best friend, teammate, and occasional therapist to the bride. Without her the bride would be a complete and utter wreck of a human and we probably would not be having this wedding. When she's not going to frisbee events, running, or playing sports, Sydney enjoys exercising, watching sports, and playing other sports she wasn't playing before.
Wyatt Lundquist
Best Man
The unofficial brother to the groom, Wyatt has known the groom since high school and still can't believe he landed Emma. They met while Wyatt was being kicked out of class and the groom was trying to sell illegal contraband (just candy bars, don't tag this site NSA). Wyatt is a great dad, with an amazing family and is always there to remind the groom of his shortfalls, and that sometimes you need to be beaten with a wrench.
Leiasa Horanic
Matron of Honor
Older sister of the bride but 2 inches shorter, not that the bride ever reminds her. She is the most intelligent, loving, thoughtful, spreadsheet-making, schedule keeping older sister anyone could ask for! The bride is eternally grateful for Leiasa's help in planning this wedding and even more grateful to the universe for giving her Leiasa as an older sister!
John Kennedy
Groomsman
One of the groom's best friends since moving to Louisiana. He's always been there with advice on life, fishing, and enjoying the little things. Fun fact: he met his wife through the groom and therefore owes all his happiness and life fulfillment to the groom. The groom is honored to have a friend like John who will spend his free time helping the him with whatever thing the groom most recently broke.
Corrie Talbert
Bridesmaid
Corrie has been friends with the bride since before they started kindergarten together so the bride considers her more of a sister than a friend. The bride cannot imagine what her childhood would have been like without Corrie and now that you mention it she can't really imagine what her adulthood would be like without Corrie either. The bride is forever grateful that Corrie continues to be a beacon of light in a sometimes dark world.
Tony Formosa
Groomsman
Tony remembers the day he met the groom and his exact words were "Wow! What an amazing guy, I can't wait to be his friend". So Tony proceeded to earn the grooms trust and beat all the other contenders to become one of the groom's closest friends and Wordle buddy. Then Tony met the bride and realized what an amazing person actually looked like so he became friends with her instead, but still lets the groom think they're friends. Tony was there on the the bride's first offshore job, when she met the groom, and therefore holds a special place in both their hearts.
Emily Kachadourian
Bridesmaid
The bride, Corrie, and Sydney decided to let Emily into their trio in kindergarten and since then it's been a quad squad. Therefore Emily is less of a friend and more of a sister. The sleepovers, red vines, brownies, hide and seek and cops and robbers games will forever be favorite childhood memories for the bride and she can't wait to force Emily into making more life memories!
Claudia Wagner
Groomswoman
One of the groom's smartest friends, which is not saying much compared to all his other friends. But when the groom thinks it's a great idea to go to a country music festival and do stupid things with other drunk people, she's always there to remind him that hospitals are expensive and you can't get bail on weekends. The bride appreciates this valuable advice from Claudia toward the groom as well.
Nora Frank
Bridesmaid
Nora is one of the main reasons the bride survived college and is with us today. Sometimes the bride looks back on how miserable she was at times in college but it was all worth it because she got to meet Nora. Nora's infectious positive attitude, passion for the ocean, and obvious consideration for the world and those around her are just a few of the reasons that the bride adores her! Team abalone for life <3
Austin Bell
Groomsman
A young guy with a diver tattoo is usually a bad sign, but Austin's positive outlook on life, kindness, and sense of humor has made him a crowd favorite. He was there the moment the bride and groom met so it is only fitting that he is there when they get hitched. An all around fun guy to be around, the groom is so happy to call him a friend and colleague.
Amanda Cianciarulo
Bridesmaid
Ravenclaws for life! Amanda and the bride met at a summer camp before their first year of college and decided that their mutual love for Harry Potter meant they had to be friends. They lived together sophomore year through senior year and no one is really sure how Amanda put up living with the bride for that long but they supported each other through relationships and school, creating a friendship that would last a lifetime. The bride feels lucky to have a friend like Amanda!
George Barber
Officiant
IMPORTANT: He can only have two beers before the ceremony (Orders from the bride). George is a great storyteller and can always make you laugh, even when you are cold, wet, and questioning your life choices on an offshore platform. He'll make you a mean drink and teach you about the positives of life. You'll learn to love him, and/or end up on the side of the road in Mexico with him. Either way, its always a good time.
Danielle Costa
Bridesmaid
Although they met in college, Dani and the bride became close friends when they lived together though covid and the bride forced Dani to get scuba certified so she could have a dive buddy! The bride is forever appreciative of Dani's willingness to go on adventures, play Settlers of Catan, and babysit the groom when the bride has to work.
Nic Coggan
Groomsman
First became friends with the bride after they went to dive school and decided to become roommates in Louisiana. Eventually Nic moved in with the bride and groom and became the best 3rd wheel ever! The groom and Nic bonded over their love of beer, whiskey, video games, and hospital visits. Nic always has advise for the groom on life and the pursuit of happiness, although not always responsible advise. There is never a dull conversation with Nic and his sense of humor will have you dying of laughter.
