I’ve been stuck with this one, neither by choice nor circumstance, from the day I was born, and I couldn’t have asked for a better sister or a wilder ride. I’m looking forward to making this day as special as the stars will allow.

Yan

Best Man

I met David on my second day after I moved here to the U.S. I asked him if he wanted to be friends. He said no. 20 years later, I'm his best man.

Emily has been a positive influence on my life ever since we met in Mrs. Passente's 2nd grade class. She has always encouraged me to dream big and think outside the box. I couldn't be more excited and honored to be a part of Emily & David's big day!

Team Groom

It's not enough to say that David has a heart of gold - he embodies the phrase. That this gentle giant was able to find a soul as sincere as his is a testament to life giving back everything we put into it. I'm grateful to be able to call David my close friend, and I can't wait to see him and Emily start their journey together!

I met Emily in 6th grade when we bonded over drama club, romantic movies, and FOOD! She stuck with me through all the awkward moments, accomplishments, and transitions in life. To this day she is one of my most trusted friends and sources of advice and a huge role model. I am so honored to be part of her and David’s special day and truly no one deserves more happiness in life. Can’t wait to cry, celebrate, and party with you on this momentous occasion!

Stemming from the sacred of halls of P.S. 195, David’s exceptionally luscious mane and average-sized ears have remained a fixture in my life for over two decades. David is kind, silly, caring, hairy, well-rounded, down-to-earth, and very bad at hockey. As the years roll by, we age but remain those children who rode our bikes up and down Hampton Avenue, wrestled in my basement, played roller hockey in the Manhattan Beach Park, demolished n00b$ in COD (NAPKINS FTW), and strolled around the neighborhood philosophizing. Ironically, my mother still refers to him as “Little David”, although he has never exactly been little. At long last, our “Little David” is about to begin the biggest journey of all by marrying his soulmate, Emily. I am truly honored to share in the celebration of their love.

I met Emily 8 years ago through David and our bond has been getting stronger ever since. Emily is one of the most loyal, trustworthy and adventurous people I know, and has become one of my best friends. She’s beautiful, strong and an incredible daughter, granddaughter, sister, friend and now a soon to be wife and one day an amazing mother. I am truly very lucky to have Emily in my life and honored to be one of her bridesmaids. Most importantly, I’m super excited to share David and Emily’s special day and celebrate their beautiful union ♥️

Eric

Team Groom

Our friendship began over 10 years ago in middle school. Since then we have been on more adventures together than I can count; rafting, camping, partying, and putting on fireworks displays only to get chased away by cops, just to name a few. David is a wonderful friend who is funny, charismatic, and almost as good as me at handball. He has brightened my life and surely done the same for many others. Congratulations David & Emily! You guys are meant for each other.

Brittany

Team Bride

I am 1/3 of our amazing sorority pledge class at Geneseo. I have so many amazing memories with Emily and David and I can’t wait to be a part of their special day!

Yuri

Team Groom

It’s incredible to think about the fact that David and I have been friends for 15 years. Time really flies when you’re having fun. I remember the day David and Emily met like it was yesterday. It took him forever to build up the courage to walk over to her but when he did he disappeared for the entire night and that’s when I knew she stole him from me. I can’t believe that was almost 10 years ago. I’m so happy he found her because they’re perfect for each other. We’ve been through some crazy adventures but that’s nothing compared to the fun that you two are going to have for the years to come. Congratulations!!!

Team Bride

I am 1/3 of our amazing sorority pledge class at Geneseo. Emily was my favorite person to study and frolic with. Being part of her and David’s lives (and wedding) is an incredible blessing.

Ilya

Team Groom

He goes by many names, and is seen in many cities around the world. Sometimes skiing off the beaten paths of Breckenridge, sometimes crying in the foothills of the Italian countryside, and sometimes getting off a ski lift in the alps with a broken ski. I have travelled to countless places with this person, this tower, this statue, this mantleMAN, and I am thrilled to be standing up there with this legend on his special day. Au Revoir Shoshanna!

Melissa

Team Bride

Emily is my big from our sorority in Geneseo. She is my partner in crime and favorite person in the entire world. I am so grateful to be part of their day!

Alex

Team Groom

When your parents trust the groom to drive their car more than their son, you know this guy is A1. From jumping off bridges in PA to hockey in sheepshead - I cant imagine my childhood without David. There are few people so kind-hearted and genuine that it makes us all feel lucky to have met you. Emily is so incredibly perfect and you guys together are a power couple for a generation. I cant wait to see you guys make it official and begin your journey as full-time farmers!
