Kirsten & Andrew
Wedding Party
Matthew Sa
Man of Honor
Matty and Kirsten have been inseparable since they first met on a choir retreat in college. No matter the distance between them or their time apart it's as if they were still in college binge watching Arrested Development and debating what is better; Opera or Musical Theater. Being a gifted actor himself, Matty was the obvious choice to pull double duty as Man of honor and wedding officiant .
Vincent Turregano
Bridesman
Vincent and Kirsten met in their post-grad opera program at New England Conservatory. They shared a love of all things snarky, sarcastic, and funny and became fast friends with the main goal of trying to keep each other sane through all of the classes, operas, and voice competitions. Vincent is currently living and singing in Germany and we couldn't be more grateful that he is making the trip to Boston to be with us!
Wade Baker
Bridesman
Wade and Kirsten met while singing together at Portland Opera. She quickly realized that he is not only an incredible human being whom she wanted to spend all of her time with but also an incredible singer and teacher. Kirsten began to study with Wade who helped her grow so much as a singer and person. The two of them could often be found frequenting many of the bars in downtown Portland on weekends and after shows... this includes karaoke with scantily clad, male go-go dancers!
Ty Larson
Bridesman
Ty and Kirsten met after Wade mentioned this guy he was seeing... Ty and Wade began dating and Kirsten was so excited to meet the man that was making Wade's heart sing! A man of fabulous taste and who is an all-around good time, Kirsten was a bit nervous to meet Ty for the first time. Luckily, she instantly fell in love with him (and Jimmy Chew) too!
Meghan Agganis
Bridesmaid
Meg and Kirsten first met on a long car ride to Vermont and from that a strong friendship began. An intelligent woman with an infections smile, Meg is protective and supportive in equal measure. She also has the dubious honor of being more type A than Kirsten. A lover of wine, Harry Potter, and the Giants, we're excited to have her join us on our special day.
George Agganis
Best Man
George and Andy have been friends for almost 3 decades. They first met in Tee-ball, and have been lifelong friends ever since. Often the voice of reason, George has kept Andy out of trouble on more than one occasion. George and his wife Meghan currently are expecting their first child, who will be joining them before the wedding. These days you'll find George at his new job at the Wynn Boston Harbor or yelling at the television during any sporting event.
Julia Kanter
Groomswoman
Brothers and sisters don't always get along, and Julia and Andrew weren't an exception to that for a long time. However, over the years they've grown to appreciate their strengths and differences. A dedicated mother, she and her husband Josh are raising an amazing son, Andy's nephew, Odin. No brother could possibly be prouder of a sister.
Nick Landry
Groomsman
Nick Landry is man of many skills and even more nicknames. Andy and Nick have been friends for a long time, but have grown much closer in recent years. A carpenter by trade, he is hard at work fixing up his new home for his wife Krista and their two Siberian huskies Sammy and Juneau. Always looking for a new beer to try or a piece of meat to grill Nick is always an enjoyable presence, especially with a guitar in hand.
Krista Roche
Groomswoman
Krista, or Boomer as she's lovingly known is usually the life of the party. A woman of brutal honesty and unwavering kindness, she's someone that you always want in your corner. She likes spending her time traveling across the country to see Dave Mathews live with her husband Nick, being crafty, and somehow finding the perfect gift for any occasion.
