Rebecca & Steven
Wedding Party
Casey Geist
Matron of Honor
Casey is married to Becca's middle brother, Andrew, and therefore legally bound to liking Becca. Luckily through the years, liking each other has turned into loving each other like real sisters. Casey and Andrew just bought their first home in Portland, OR where they are killing the DIY projects! Casey is a middle school teacher, so you know she might be an actual saint.
Annie Hughes
Maid of Honor
Annie is Becca's high school sweetheart. Annie and Becca got each other through college where they were practically inseparable. The two share an affinity for perfectly timed Spongebob quotes. Annie is in the Army and is currently stationed in Kentucky. She rescued a stray cat named Cliff who is cute enough to make most people consider being a 'cat person'.
Samantha Galimberti
Bridesmaid
Samantha is the kindest soul you will ever meet! Through the years, Samantha and Rebecca have been mediocre in a wide variety of activities (please feel free to ask for our expertise in youth soccer, tap and jazz dance classes, high school cross country, and college youth group). Samantha and her Husband recently got married and bought their first house In Pittsburgh. Samantha owns her own amazing Videography and Photography business, Samantha Malizia Films (#shamlessplug).
Leah Fain
Bridesmaid
Leah and Rebecca are cousins who were born just two days apart, which created a sister-like bond between the pair. Despite their height difference, Leah and Rebecca could put on a world-class 'synchronized water ballet' in their Grandma's pool...probably still could. Leah and her husband recently welcomed a beautiful son, Ezekiel, in March!
Margo Bernet
Bridesmaid
Margo is' Becca's 'Jersey Girl' cousin. She is and has always been the life of the party! Becca and Margo have a shared love of all things Penn State. Margo has her degree in Supply Chain Management and has been rocking it at Macy's since her graduation. Obviously, still lives in Jersey where she and her boyfriend can make it 'down the shore' on weekends!
Amy Geist
Bridesmaid
Amy is Becca's brand new sister-in-law!! Becca's oldest brother, Nate, and Amy got married in June! The pair just bought a house in Maryland where their adorable pup Remy has lots of land to romp around (and eat cicadas...yum) Amy is incredibly brilliant and kind. She works for the World Bank as an analyst working on gender issues and development programming. To fuel her long days, Amy enjoys a tasty mug o' beach house blend coffee.
Michael Latina
Best Man
Mike has always been like a brother to Steve. Some say it's because he is, in fact, Steve's brother. Mike is the instigator of mayhem and general shenanigans in the family, while Steve most often finds himself as an unwitting target. Things usually go south when Mike utters the phrase "Hey...wanna see something funny?" Like that time he broke the ceiling fan in their childhood home while it was spinning full speed. Mike is currently living and working as an engineer in Greenville, SC with his wife Engrid and English Setter pup Webster. He enjoys scotch, smoked meats, going shooting, and Funk music.
Vasili Baras
Groomsman
Few people on this planet know Steve as well as Vasili does. These two have stuck through freshman orientation at UML, living together for 3 years, completing a capstone project for mechanical engineering, and now working in the same industry. It all started with an epic ping-pong battle for the ages at the campus rec center back in 2010. It is common knowledge that Vasili "dragged Steve's ass through engineering school" with his infallible work ethic and eternal optimism. But Steve showed him how to bake chicken in the oven, so you can say it's been give-and-take. Vasili is living in Waltham, MA with his *soon to be* wife Brianna and 90lbs English Black Lab Louie. 'V' is a lover of sports and can name up to TWO musical artists! (...as long as they are Eminem and Macklemore)
Gavin Halloran
Groomsman
Gavin brought Steve into the world of intramural sports at UML. It started with a few pickup basketball games, and became the legacies of 'Team Ty Page', 'Backyard Elite', 'Jumpklaps', and 'Bamford and Sons'. Gav was always down for a new sport, game, and quick catch out in the parking lot or Eames hall lawn. After graduation, Steve was the unofficial 3rd roomie (and foosball champion) at Gav and Jen’s condo. Don't let his gentle demeanor and shyness fool you - he's a maniac on the dance floor. Gavin and wife Jen live in Lancaster, MA with pit-mix rescue pup Bodie. He also holds title in the Guinness Book of World Records for 'Largest Number of Suitable Nicknames' (Gav, G, Gavy, Gavy-bear, Gav-daddy, G-unit, Grizzly, Degraw, Slacker, Kyle, Big Tuna, Roni, Meatball...and many, many more.)
Jordan Kuschel
Groomsman
Jordan is basically Steve's work wife. They met as coworkers in Disco during Steve's first month-long business trip to the Bay Area. The pair bonded over being the 'token millennials' of the recruiting class of 2015. Jordan is (almost) always up for an early tee time with Steve, Willard Hicks dates, and long 'walking meetings' to get coffee during the work day. There's no one better to text during a never-ending employee meeting, or perform karaoke with at 2AM in Tokyo. Jordan lives in Campbell, CA and enjoys music festivals, Sharks games, and industrial margarita 'swirls' from Acqui Taqueria. He is also an unofficial brand ambassador for several apparel companies that produce exceptionally tight men's pants.
Stanley Mathews
Groomsman
Stan and Steve met in the Eames Hall Honors dormitory at UML back in 2010 and became fast friends. After a stint at the School Street apartments, Stan, Gav, Vasili, and Steve went on search for a new place to live for their final year - cue chanting: *HOUSE HOUSE HOUSE HOUSE* Together they ended up at 'The Dupe' and forged a deepened relationship through countless hours of intramural sports, ruit practice, and watching Californication. After University Stan and Steve could be found regularly at Tavern in The Square for 'Boyz Brunch' enjoying Irish iced coffees. Stan and wife Heather recently moved into a new house in Norwood, MA. Stan's hobby is making himself into a surprise by being fashionably late to events, but always comes when called: "Stan...the team needs you"
Robert Cooper
Groomsman
'Cooper' is one of Steve's tallest and longest term friends. The pair met during the summer before Freshman year of high school at marching Band Camp. Together they made it through acne and braces, matching Pooka-shell necklaces and skater hair, purple wool uniforms and puffy plumed shakos, and Mrs. Wendel's AP calculus class. Thankfully, the years were kind to them as they shared a glow up from mega band geeks into absolute buffets of manliness. Coop recently transitioned out of the Navy after 6 years of service on nuclear submarines. He is back landside with Steve as an engineer at Disco. A modern day renaissance man, Cooper has expertise playing trumpet, Call of Duty, and golf. He can also quote just about any movie released in the last 70 years and enjoys whiskey and cigars.
