Sarah Wagoner
Bride
For all those who haven’t had the pleasure to meet the bride yet, please meet Sarah! Sarah is a very helpful, intelligent, kind but yet sassy when she wants to be and passionate woman. She always has an ear to listen, shoulder to cry on or smile to flash when needed for those close to her.

Christopher Greenidge

For all those who don’t have the pleasure of knowing Christopher yet, let us introduce you! Christopher is the best play mate for his soon to be step daughter as he is always ready to play games, do homework or do a silly dance with Ele and his soon to be bride.

Christopher and I are very excited to start our marriage together, eager to share experiences with Ele and live life to the absolute fullest!
Donald Wagoner
Father of the Bride
We would like to introduce to the father of the bride! Donald is known to be a man of very few words but also has a great sense of humor but yet is very serious when he needs to be. Donald taught Sarah the value of chivalry, dedication and respect, thus making Sarah look for these same values in a man who she will consider for marriage. Christopher reminisced that when he called Donald for Sarah’s hand in marriage that he was pleased Christopher called and he appreciated the respect he provided to him and Sarah by take the time and effort to make that nerve wracking call and thanked him.
Christine Fennelly
Mother of the Bride
We would like to introduce you all to Sarah’s mom! Christine loves enjoying nature or being creative in some way as she is an artist through and through. Christine taught Sarah at a young age to enjoy life to its fullest but to always stop and smell the roses. Christine and Sarah when she was growing up, owned and operated an apple pie home bakery and this is when Sarah found her love of baking and cooking.
Evelyn Greenidge
Mother of the Groom
We would like to introduce you to Christopher’s mother! Evelyn is a caring and kind person to all she interacts with and has always encouraged Christopher to strive to be the best man he can be. Evelyn loves to share a laugh with others and taught Christopher to always find the joy in the little things. Christopher’s favorite thing to say about his mother’s cooking is that “she makes a mean pound cake” and misses eating Bajan food back home with her.
Eleanor
Flower Girl
I would like to introduce you all to my dearest daughter Ele! Ele is truly the light of our life and we are so excited to begin our journey as a family! Ele and Christopher have bonded over their love of cartoons and chips after a long day of work/school. Ele is a wonderful, spunky, beautiful, intelligent, kind, caring, and outgoing little girl! Pictured here is Ele’s favorite photo of her and her beloved cat, Amber who is looking down on the beginning of our marriage from heaven.
Danalyn and Maigan
Flower Girl
I would to introduce you all to my lovely niece and sister Maigan! Maigan has known the bride since…. well since the day she was born! Maigan is 8 years older than Sarah but that never stopped her from including her in all the fun activities! Danalyn is Sarah’s goddaughter and she holds a special place in the bride’s heart. Danalyn is so beautiful, caring, smart and always has a kind word to say! We are so excited to have Danalyn share the role of flower girl with her mom and dear cousin Eleanor.
Major Ryan Gonch
Ring Bearer
I would like to introduce you all to my older brother! Ryan is 10 years older than me and is truly a kid at heart with a joke ready to go or funny story! Ryan serves as a Major in the United States Army and enjoys spending time with his family and dog or spending time out on the boat enjoying the outdoors.
Brent Wagoner
Usher
I would like to introduce you all to Sarah’s younger brother! Brent always has a smile on and gives the best advice, but his niece would say otherwise saying he gives the best bear hugs! Brent has an integral role on his big sister’s wedding day which is to help all our loved ones and dear friends find their seats at the ceremony or reception. Brent is level headed and can handle anything thrown his way, so should you be unable to find your seat, Brent is your guy!
Mary McMahon
Bridesmaid
I would like to introduce our guests to my dear friend Mary! Mary is an occupational therapy assistant and her hobbies include running and playing the piano. Mary has known the bride since 1998, Sarah was only 5 years old. Some of Mary’s favorite memories of Sarah: "we were kids and dressed up for a nativity play, she was an angel, I was a shepherd. Then (much later) we dressed up in our best 60s attire at an ABBA tribute concert. Anytime there's a party to dress up for, Sarah's been born ready with infectious enthusiasm. I'm honored to be in her bridal party and get dressed up once again, this time for her big day--words fail to say how happy I am for her!" I am so blessed to have such an amazing friend by my side from childhood into adulthood! Mary is such a kind and genuine person, I am grateful for her friendship, support and enthusiasm for this new chapter in my life.
Katherine Selby
Bridesmaid
I would like to introduce you all to the one and the only…Katie! She may only be 5’ 2 but you won’t lose her in a crowd. Katie one of the bride’s closest friends since 2011, we met at FMCC (local community college) and it’s actually a funny story! We had biology together with a horrid teacher & one day Katie was sitting there by herself and so was the bride. Sarah had a pizza and while sitting there in class she said “Psssp you want to share?” We’ve been together ever since. Katie is an awesome dog mom and said “you can find me walking my two dogs or with a clipboard planning something to do with color coordination.” I am so thankful that Katie has been part of my life for so many years, she and I have some stories…! Katie is such a vibrant, honest and caring person who gives 110% to the people in her life. I can’t wait to create more memories with her because even though I will be a wife, I still plan on getting into some shenanigans and Christopher can be our voice of reason!
Jacqueline Snyder
Bridesmaid
We would like to introduce you to Jacqueline, one of Sarah’s best friends who also is a fellow horror and true crime girly like Sarah! Sarah and Jacqueline met at the library many year ago… maybe 2017 and when we had only known each other for a few weeks we were continuously asked how long we’d known each other and when we replied only a short time, people were always surprised thinking we had been friends for years! Jacqueline is the proud owner of Remi her little Chihuahua! Jacqueline also loves to shop as does the bride, so retail therapy is a mutual hobby for Jacqueline and Sarah. Sarah is blessed to have such a caring, loving, beautiful and witty friend by her side!
Dallas Trombley
Groomsman
We would like to introduce you to Dallas, one of Christopher’s closest friends in NY who is from New Baltimore which is just south of Albany, on the Hudson River. Dallas and Christopher worked together at the New York State Assembly where they made a fantastic team where they focused on public policy and trying to get legislation passed on time over cocktails with other staff. Dallas has a passion for nautical experiences and has built 14 boats over the years, 13 of which are at the bottom of various American rivers. Dallas also writes books about his experiences in life and considers himself a flagship example of how to fail and somehow win too… Dallas lives in Troy and has two felines, named Jack and Bobby Catnedy. We are so excited to have Dallas in our lives as he brings joy to any conversation, always has a story to tell and also shares a love of cats, just like the bride!
Joe Bussmann
Groomsman
We would like to introduce you to Christopher’s long term friend Joe! Joe is a fellow cat lover and he is the proud owner of Arya, the goofball goblin cat. Joe enjoys cooking, political thrillers and singing karaoke. Speaking of music, Joe first met the bride after one of her first dates with Christopher as they had dinner and Sarah then went to a concert with a friend who was also a friend of Joe’s. Turns out Sarah and Joe attended the same concert (The Hu 🤘🏼) at Empire Live and Joe later told Christopher that Sarah had great taste in music. Joe would like everyone to know “Chris has been one of my best friends for years, and it’s an honor to be one of his groomsman. I thought I knew what “Happy Chris” looked like; then I saw him with Sarah.” We are so excited to have Joe as a friend and can’t wait to listen to some good music at the reception!
