Wedding Party
Stephanie Valone
Maid of Honor
Stephanie and Patricia met the way you think they did. From that day forward, Patricia was never alone. And neither was Stephanie; Patricia followed her everywhere. Stephanie is the best big sister, roommate, role model, and friend that Patricia has ever had. The tiny little lion burst forth with the best support system at her side. Patricia is honored to have Stephanie at her side today.
Tommy Apodaca
Best Man
Travis and Tommy met working together during their Disney College Program in Spring 2015, Tommy met Trish just before Travis and Trish officially started dating in September of 2016 and along with his fiancé Hayleigh, we have all been family since. We've lived together, laughed together and had an endless amount of game nights and Disney trips. There is no better choice for Travis' best man than Tommy.
Hayleigh Latko
Bridesmaid
After meeting Trish, Hayleigh's first words were "I love her." The feeling could not have been more mutual. Hayleigh and Trish, along with Travis and Hayleigh's fiancé Tommy, were immediately inseparable. From food festivals at EPCOT to family game nights, Hayleigh has been a constant since the beginning of Travis and Trish's relationship. We are thrilled to have her with us, today and every day.
Clifton Durand
Groomsman
Clifton and Travis met when Travis and Trish made the move back to NY in 2019 at the Thayer Hotel where Clifton was Travis' manager. When Travis made the move to the LEGOLAND NY Hotel, he knew there was no better person to recommend to join the management team with him than Clifton. Over the years Clifton has been a faithful listener to Travis' D&D stories or Travis' tales of his love of Disney Parks. Thank you Clifton for being a fantastic listener and one of the best friends a guy can have.
Katie Redmon
Bridesmaid
Katie and Tricia's best friendship was born out of a spelling mistake and blossomed into something that is truly a sight to behold. Patricia is aware of how lucky she is to have had a friendship not only last, but thrive, for over twenty years. Patricia and Katie have so much in common there are not enough characters to list them all but always find something different to talk about. There has not been a day since she was 10 years old that Katie has not been there. It was a no brainer to have her up there with us.
Zacory Demonterey
Groomsman
Travis and Zac have known each other for over ten years now and he is one of Travis' longest friendships. Zac has been a part of Travis' week consistently for the past seven years roughly as the DM for a D&D and Pathfinder campaign. During Travis and Trish's time in NY we always had a great time hanging out with Zac whether it was just at our place watching Wandavision or the Mandalorian, hitting the renaissance faire, NYCC or even a League of Legends event. Zac has been there for us since day one and is one of our closest friends.
Melissa Valone
Bridesmaid
Melissa is Patricia's little mini-me and so much more. She is the spunky younger sister everybody wants. Missy has always been there to encourage Patricia - whether it be responding to singing videos or simply saying "Werk!" when Tricia has a good hair day. The encouragement has always meant so much but especially now. Melissa is the Glinda to Patricia's Elphaba. This is Tricia's moment...but she is coming. They are two good friends? Two best friends. And thank her for the hair and makeup, okay??
Steven Fejes
Groomsman
Steven and Travis technically met in Xbox 360 party chat before meeting in person but neither of them will forget the unique way that Steven introduced himself to Travis in Fieldstone. Over the years Travis and Steven have had the best (and sometimes worst) of times sharing their love of TSM and their marriage in their Pathfinder campaign. Steven and his wife Sasha are two of the kindest individuals that we know, and any time spent with them is never long enough. Steven is the crow to Travis' raven and one of his longest and best friends.
Melanie Valone
Bridesmaid
Melanie is the jelly to Patricia's peanut butter. One of the best little sisters anyone could ever have, Melanie has always been there for Patricia. From seeing Broadway shows together to open-to-close park days, Meli is always up for an adventure. Who more perfect to see us through this: our biggest adventure yet?
Tyler White
Groomsman
Travis and Tyler met when he came to visit Travis and Trish in New York with Trish's sister Melanie. They were fast friends. Travis and Tyler like watching anime and going to theme parks together and have a shared love for collecting pins. As the partners of sisters, Tyler and Travis have a bond unlike many others that feels like family. Travis looks forward to many more years of playing videogames and catching 'em all with Tyler.
