Stephanie & Hannah
Wedding Party
Luke Mastrangeli
Man of Honor
Luke and Hannah met while they were in college at Stevenson University in Maryland, even though they both grew up right here in Connecticut! Luke has been a staple person in Hannah's life from their freshman year and is now also a staple for both Steph and Hannah. Luke has been there for Hannah through some of the toughest times and has truly become family. We are so lucky that Luke will be Hannah's Best Man, because he is absolutely the best.
Rachel Palmer
Bridesmaid
Hannah and Rachel met during their time at Stevenson. The trauma of nursing school quickly bonded them. Through countless sleepless nights studying, the occasional night out, and cozy Hallmark movie marathons, their friendship continued to grow. Even while living hundreds of miles apart, Rachel has always been there for Hannah and remains someone she can rely on no matter what.
Christina DeFalco
Bridesmaid
Christina and Hannah met while working at Middlesex. They both transferred down to the emergency department from inpatient floors and started the journey of being a night shift emergency department RN. Whether it was from the long nights with critical patients, the coffee trips on days off or that one exciting trip to Nashville Christina has always been there for Hannah. They were lucky enough to start travel nursing together and take on new hospitals and new cities with at least one familiar face. Steph was lucky enough to also meet Christina through the emergency department. While she may be standing on Hannah's side, both brides love her just the same and are so excited to have her a part of the special day!
Jenna Schultz
Bridesmaid
Jenna is Hannah's younger sister. Growing up together, she has been there for all of the memories, milestones, and countless moments in between. Jenna has been Hannah's built-in best friend, confidant, and one of her greatest supporters through every stage of life. Consistently offering encouragement, honest advice, or a laugh when needed most. Hannah is excited and grateful to have her by her side for this next chapter of life.
Elizabeth Lombardo
Maid of Honor
Liz and Steph have been best friends since they were 12. Both of their lives looked extremely similar growing up as they played on the same Eliminators travel softball team. They spent every weekend of every summer until college playing in tournaments. There were many late night travels, concerts, and more meals together than either one could count. After 16 years of being the others first call Steph knew there was no one else that she needed by her side. Through all of life's changes including college, moving states away from one another and millions of memories together, they know that with one call that the other will always be there.
Amanda Minopoli
Bridesmaid
Amanda and Steph met while at the University of Bridgeport. Day one of meeting neither one of them knew how big a part of each other's lives they would be. They won the school's first conference championship during their last year of playing, against all odds. The pitcher-catcher connection was how they started, and now they share holidays, weddings, and hundreds of weekends together with all of their friends. Last year Steph stood with Amanda at her wedding. While the roles have reversed the joy and excitement is just the same.
Jenna DiLorenzo
Bridesmaid
Jenna and Steph knew each other throughout high school and travel softball, but were always opponents. In August of 2015 that changed to being not just teammates but also roommates. Over the years of school, softball, graduation and now spending weekends, holidays and some of the biggest moments of life together Jenna has always been someone that has Steph's best interest in mind. She is an extremely thoughtful and caring friend that Steph could not imagine her life without!
Erica Tardif
Bridesmaid
Erica and Steph met while working at Middlesex in the emergency department. Both worked through countless hours of long shifts together where each knew they could always rely on the other for anything they may need. That relationship quickly transformed into more than just a work friendship. Steph knew that Erica was someone she could be her most true self with and never have to worry about a moment of judgement or mistrust. Erica helped to push Steph to trust herself in her job then and into her now career as a Paramedic. Erica is always guaranteed to be someone Steph can go to for honest advice, the best company at a dinner or brewery and anything in-between. Both Hannah and Steph are very excited to have her standing with them on their special day!
