Wedding Party
Maryann O'Connor
Mother of the Groom
She can finally be found in her garden, in her new kitchen with a glass of wine, and lets not forget out front, in her rocking chair, talking to the Humming Birds that have befriended her. Retirement looks good on you! Thank you for being such an amazing mom! (I could have a bite... HAHAHAHA... Funny Ry!)

Solange Micheloni
Mother of the Bride
Most commonly know as MAHHHH. She's the best Mah, the queen of multitasking, and the type of person you wish you could shrink key chain size so you could put her in your pocket and take her with you everywhere. No one will ever go hungry in her presence. No will ever feel bad in her presence. No one ever wants to leave her presence. Along with my PAH she is my rock and my inspiration. I hope I can become half of the woman she is! I love you MOM!
Osvaldo Micheloni
Father of the Bride
Most commonly know as PAH, Papi or Papa Bear. He looks tough on the outside but he's a fluffy teddy bear on the inside. A former drill Sergeant in the Brazilian Army, I would advise being kind to me! HAHAHAHAHAHA, But no seriously he goes to the range! I don't know how a man could be a better father, a better teacher, a better example! Over coming odds I hope no one experiences, he is my father and I love him to pieces! I am truly blessed!
Gabriela Micheloni
Maid of Honor
Big sister and forever wing woman. I don't know what it's like to be a big sister but what I can guarantee is that I wouldn't trade her for another EVER! I don't think I would be who I am without her. She taught me so many important lessons in life that I use today without even thinking about it! She always looked out and took the punches! I am better because of you Gabi and I appreciate you so much! Keep pushing! Love you mucho.
David Stella
Groomsman
You have no I.D. how good of a friend this guy is, The BEST! I have typed and erased and started again a thousand times. Can't find enough space or words to describe how important David is to me! Would I take him into the fox hole with me? YUP! Would I step in-front of a train for him? YUP! Would he do the same? Without a second guess. They Say if you end up with 2 or 3 real friends in your life you're lucky. David is worth 1, 2 and 3 by himself! He has picked me up from all my sad days, listened to me rant and rave about it all and still comes back asking how he can lend a hand! I love you man! Also, when at he wedding, ask him why we said "No I.D." HAHAHAHAHAAHAHHA
Michelle Miltenberger
Bridesmaid
Sista from anotha mista. Chella's first friend in NYC. She's an inspiration in and out of the gym. She's ALWAYS smiling and always looking at the positive side of things. Ex- colleague and forever friend.
Henry Briance
Groomsman
This guy right here is like wicked freakgin smaart. From teaching me about soccer over a pint watching the world cup, to running around Capital Hill together Interning for Congressman Shays, I couldn't have been more blessed with this friendship! Hell of guy you are Henry! Then, as if he wasn't amazing enough, he went and convinced Keith to marry him. Wait until you meet Ketih! AMAZING! If you don't have a friend like Henry, pffffff go get one! He's taken so get someone else!
Erin Ash
Bridesmaid
Friendship at first sight, running many miles and eating many meals. Chella's first friend in the USA, making the transition 1000 times better.
Dick Wu
Groomsman
From tutor to friend! I met Dick while failing every single test at Bloomberg. A human interest rate swap calculator and super intelligent, humble, amazing human being, Dick got me through the Bloomberg Tests. When he's not crushing the Fixed Income markets for Barclays, Dick can be found traveling the world, catching a nets game or tutoring Ryan on Interest Rate Swaps. I am so blessed and feel honored that Dick calls me a friend. Would do anything for this guy right here!
Madeeha Khalid
Bridesmaid
Bloomberg was a great experience, I miss it most days. It was also very challenging; there were many days where I was pushed both mentally and emotionally. Thank god for Madeeha. She was always checking on me, ready to go for a coffee, aka venting session. I love and appreciate her to my core! She is also such a warm and amazing human being! Thank you Madeeha for being my friend and bridesmaid!
Jaime Austin
Groomsman
Ok so let me tell you about this man right here! Super ambitious, has fierce loyalty to his real friends and family, will give you the shirt off his back no questions asked. His heart is huge and there is no way you don't feel this when you meet him! Hailing from Memphis, TN, the pressure washing King of the south, my brotha from anotha motha, James "King" Austin! NOW, introducing his boss, his better half and his queen, KIKI! Super chill, beautiful and down to keep the party going! Can't wait to see yal!
Rumeire Esteves

Hermana from anotha mama. Most commonly know as Tita. She is a role model, exemplary mother, caring friend, an honor and pleasure to have as a friend. Always down to do something fun.
Oswaldo Esteves
Groomsman
I met Waldi through my main man Juni (Jose Barbosa). One day Juni asked if his cousin could come over and I was all like, bruh, of course su familia es mi familia. Since then Waldi and I have been family. He is my brother! A model father, husband, AND friend. This guy right here is one I would take into the fox whole with me. Love you man!
Paul O'Connor
Brother of the Groom & Groomsman
I don't know what it is like being a younger brother but I can say I was and am honored to be Paul's older brother. I hope I did a good job. I remember when we were kids teaching him things, beating him up and going crazy if someone messed with him. Since then he has grown up to be a seriously impressive, charismatic, intelligent, and caring dude. I love you so much bro! Thanks for being a groomsman, can't wait for your bachelor party! You lucked out with Katherine! (Don't be mad about the pic. Chelly and I HONESTLY love it and think you should do a little stand-up at the wedding! no pressure)
Jose Barbosa
Groomsman
Juni Juni Juni! My right hand man! I met this MMA fighting, 3D Printing, Welding, Super Human with a giant heart when I got a job working at Pepsi stocking supermarket shelves. We clicked immediately, it was like... did we just become best friends? YUP. For the next 10 something years I don't think I remember a time where we weren't together. I used to drive 3 and a half hours from Saratoga Springs, NY to Milford, CT, get this dude, Switch so he could drive, drive all the way back, party for the weekend, then drive back to Milford, CT on Sunday. So worth it, Epic parties, road trips to Ithaca LOL, cliff jumping and this is just what I remember! Sitting at the Captains table with David, Dick, Henry, Waldi, Paul, Jamie, and my beautiful Chelly, MAKE SURE to come say hi to JUNI!
