Addison & Stephen
Wedding Party
Haley Pereira
Maid of Honor
Ever since we were little, Haley and I have been inseparable sisters. Haley is my best friend in the entire world, and we know everything there is to know about one another. Haley is my feisty, funny, and lovable other half. Haley has always been my protector and biggest confidante. In 2017, she and I decided to get an apartment together in North Andover MA. We both look back on that year as our favorite time of our lives. In reference to Grey's Anatomy, she is my "person."
Colleen Murray
Bridesmaid
Colleen is my best friend from high school! We met on the cross country team and became instant BFFs! From sleepovers, to summer jobs, to proms, to visiting each other at college, to becoming adults, Colleen and I have been through it all together. I would not be able to say 'I do" without Colleen by my side!
Hope Beaghley
Bridesmaid
Hope is my freshman year roommate and best friend from college at American University. We met on an AU class of 2015 Facebook group before starting college and bonded over our love of country music, the beach, and our faith. We decided to room together and the rest is history! She and I have shared so many laughs, heart to hearts, and (mostly beach) adventures over the years!
Maureen Murdock
Bridesmaid
Maureen and I met at CrossFit Full Potential where I used to coach. What started as a bond over our taste in fitness clothing brands, launched the greatest friendship. Maureen and I have been known to call each other weekly and spend no less than 2 hours on the phone! She will always make me laugh with her witty jokes and dry humor, but more than that she is a devoted true and loyal friend.
Nicole Nieves
Bridesmaid
Nicole and I met when we were both working at CrossFit Route 7. Through hundreds of grueling training sessions together and several partner competitions, many of which brought us to exciting destinations like Montreal and Miami, we became close friends. Nicole and I and our other halves love to go on vacations and adventures together and have created some amazing memories over the past couple years. The two of us are most likely found in the gym together, however if not, we are sitting poolside drinking mimosas in the sunshine!
Tietjen Hynes
Bridesmaid
Tietjen and I met at my first job after college at CrossFit Bona Fide. We were paired up together for squats one day, and bonded over our love of fitness and dogs. Soon after, Tietjen, our friend Kara, and I became roommates in an old fixer-upper house in South Berwick Maine, where we created so many great memories, many of which involved our dogs Murph and Bailey! Tietjen is an engineer for Redhook Brewery and is extremely handy. She loves to work on projects in her wood shop and she even renovated the entire house by herself before moving to Hawaii. Tietjen is the most selfless person and will give to no end without ever asking anything in return. Even though we live so far apart now, our friendship has stood the test of distance and time!
Stephanie Regh
Bridesmaid
Stephanie is my soon-to-be new sister in law! Stephanie is as sweet as they come and she is a wonderful mom to her two daughters, Caroline and Grace. I am so excited to be gaining another sister and I am looking forward to being able to look to Stephanie for sisterly advice as I move into this new chapter of married life. Steph is strong in her faith and she gives such love and compassion to everyone she meets!
Nick Lanciani
Best Man
Nick is my brother and my main man in life. As a younger brother by five years, he was part of many fights with me when we were young (always his fault of course). Well what do you know, he grew up to be quite the fine gentleman. He's one hell of an artist and his artwork can be found throughout my home. Through countless Bruins games, NASCAR races, late night gaming sessions, concerts, and most-recently...beer runs, Nick has been right there by my side. Now, he's going to be right by my side on the happiest day of my life. He's the one I go to not only for sports questions, but for life questions. I know I can text him any time of day (or night), because there's a 100% chance he's up until 0300 watching hockey. Hopefully he's in bed before then the night before the wedding...
Todd Regh
Groomsman
Todd is my brother-in-law. He is the perfect husband to my sister and the perfect father to my two nieces, Caroline and Grace. Todd is strong in his faith and his kindness knows no bounds. Todd is a big Sierra Nevada beer fan (being from Chico, CA originally), and I love sharing a good IPA with him. He's also my coffee buddy whenever I'm up north visiting. I can always count on him for a good cup of dark roast, black of course. I love spending time with Todd and watching as he and my sister build a wonderful family together. I remember being beside Todd as he took my sister's hand in marriage, and now it's his turn to be beside me as I marry Addison, my queen.
Joao Periera
Groomsman
Joao is my brother-in-law who came into my life via Haley, Addie's sister. He is the loving husband of Haley and father of little Mila. Joao and I both share a love for soccer, but unlike me, Joao is incredible. We have yet to get out on the pitch together, mostly because I'm afraid he'll make me feel like a child. Joao makes a mean Caipirinha and I love having him play bartender around the holidays. I was lucky enough to be down in Florida for Joao and Haley's wedding, and as a meteorologist I apologize that it happened to be the coldest day in three months. I'm excited for us to be together again as one big family, and I'll make sure to put in a good word with Mother Nature!
Zach Kebetz
Groomsman
Zach is one of my best friends. We met at CrossFit Route 7 and started out as weekend morning workout buddies. While we still dabble in fitness, we have since traded in the weekend morning workouts for weekend morning golf, as Zach is a very talented golfer. He can be found crushing it down the fairway and shooting par while I lose three balls on one hole and wonder why I go back each time. A big reason why I go back is because Zach is a great friend and a great guy overall. From Montreal to Mexico, and everywhere in between, we enjoy traveling together and making memories. Zach is always down for an adventure, but is also cool with just having a good old fashioned chat. We always share beer, coffee, food, stories, and laughter, and now I get to share the stage on my big day!
Gary Kurlick
Groomsman
Gary is a large, strong individual who loves kombucha and long walks through the grocery store. I met Gary and his wife, Erika, at CrossFit Route 7 way back when I first joined. Gary has a great presence in the room both physically and personality-wise, as he always lightens the mood. I can always count on him to yell "light weight babyyy" at me between reps, as well as to provide me with the next best pre-workout or supplement. He has been a great friend since day 1 and I'm happy to have him share the special day!
Mike Hanzich
Groomsman
Mike Mike Mike! Guess what daaaaaay it is! I love Mike. Mike is truly an OG friend of mine from CrossFit Route 7, though slightly clumsy (ask him about the empty barbell warmup), who has since become an Oly lifter (boo). Mike is my main man for all things pizza and car related. I could write a book about the number of times we've gone on an adventure to find the best pizza out there, or the conversations we've had about car stuff. We've vacationed together, gone to competitions together, and have sent each other countless absurd memes at all hours of the day/night. There was no doubt that I was going to ask Mike to join me for the big day. You betcha there's gonna be pizza.
Peter Yang
Groomsman
Peter is the guy who will spice up the party. He's a load of fun and is not afraid to push some buttons to liven up the place. As you probably guessed, I met Peter and his wife, Liza, at CrossFit Route 7. We quickly realized that we shared the same affinity for baseball, beer, and Zedd, and proceeded to go to numerous Nats games, breweries, and Zedd shows over the years to follow. When I want to go to The Anthem or Echostage, Peter is the first person I ask. We've shared some great memories over the years and I look forward to many more, including the big day!
Luke Trafton
Groomsman
Luke is one of my longest-known friends from Virginia, having met him at my very first CrossFit class back in 2015. We spent many weekends together working out, eating EVERYTHING, and having a few adult beverages. Our friendship grew through the years and we even spent some time as roommates; hosting epic Halloween parties, grilling steaks and burgers weekly, and single-handedly keeping VA fast food restaurants in business. Luke and I collectively own the movie Step Brothers on every media platform possible and will often rent it anyway, as is tradition.
