Wedding Party
Nicole McQuillan
Maid of Honor
Nicole and I met in club volleyball in 2014. She quickly went from stranger to best friend in just a few months. Since our tournament in Pittsburgh, we have been each others go to people. Nicole is one of the strongest and reliable people I know. She is currently living in Harrisburg finishing up her ER fellowship as a physician assistant. I couldn't imagine this day without her by my side. When you see her at the wedding, conversation topics could include: hiking, mountain biking, traveling, and living in a van.
Logan Hodges
Best Man
Logan is my older brother and now one of my best men. He's one of the most reliable people I know. I mean I can't think of a time he ever missed one of my last-minute fantasy football questions 5 minutes before Kickoff every Sunday in the fall (sorry about that). Whether it be running the Jukebox at the Hokie House after a big Virginia Tech win or taking our annual trip to watch a Bama game, Logan brings the good time. Logan Currently Lives in Blacksburg, VA where he works for Torc Robotics. When you see Logan at the wedding, some conversation topics: Steelers, Hiking, Boxing
Jayna Class
Maid of Honor
Jayna and I met in the fall of 2017 during my junior and her freshman volleyball season at LVC. Over some pasta and numerous Fresh Donut trips, we became best friends. Jayna is living in Lancaster where she teaches seventh grade and coaches volleyball while pursuing her master’s degree in literacy. She was there for the beginning of mine and Tyler’s relationship and is still one of our biggest supporters. When you see her at the wedding, conversation topics could include: volleyball, dogs, funny movies, and The Office.
Garrett Hodges
Best Man
Garrett, a.k.a the Human Encyclopedia, is without a doubt the most intelligent person that I know and he just so happens to be my younger brother. Garrett attends the University of Alabama on a full Academic Scholarship where he is also a Celsius University Ambassador. Thanks to Garrett, I get to watch a game in Tuscaloosa at least once a year and my vocabulary now regularly consists of the phrase "ROLL TIDE" even when it makes absolutely no sense. I cannot wait to have my younger brother by my side on this incredible day especially as a Best Man (Even though I am still waiting on that free Case of Celsius). ROLL TIDE!!! When you see Garrett at the Wedding, some conversation topics: Celsius, Alabama, Anything Tech Related
Libby Carroll
Bridesmaid
Libby and I met in high school in 2013. She quickly became a friendly face in a new school eventually becoming my best friend. Throughout the past 10 years, she has been one of the most supportive friends regardless of the distance between us. Libby currently resides in Nashville with her husband Tommy (best dancer I know). I had the honor of standing next to her on her big day and I'm thankful she will be by my side on mine. When you see her at the wedding, conversation topics could include: fitness, food, life in Nashville, and her pups.
Collin Farnham
Groomsman
Collin and I are first cousins but he's really just another brother to Logan, Garrett and I. All throughout our childhoods the 4 of us were always hanging out together. We are still extremely close and Collin and I actually work together now. Watching/talking sports and the Las Vegas Raiders are two things that Collin and I always do together. There was never a doubt that I would want Collin by my side on this special day and I cannot wait for it. Collin attended Wilkes University where he also played basketball and graduated with an Accounting Degree. Collin now lives in the Lehigh Valley working as a Supply Chain Business Analyst. When you see Collin at the wedding, some conversation topics include: Raiders, Sports Betting, Basketball
Amanda Mellendick
Bridesmaid
Amanda and I have known each other for over 7 years now, having met at Lebanon Valley College in 2015. She was my PT library study buddy, Chemistry lab partner, down the hall floormate, roommate for 2 years of PT school, and favorite gym buddy all throughout Covid. We spent many nights eating dinner in Metz cafeteria, going to sporting events and summer beach trips, listening to country music, and watching Chopped while eating dinner. Amanda is currently living In Baltimore, MD, while working as a Physical Therapist at Pivot PT, but we still make time for each other with nighttime phone calls and daily texts for advice on patient cases. When you see her at the wedding, conversation topics could include: LVC, Baltimore, tequila, Physical Therapy, and the beach
Ryan Johnson
Groomsman
Ryan, a.k.a "Johnson", and I met at LVC during our Freshman year. He quickly became my best friend and a part of our family. He is the most ride or die person I know and that's what makes him such an incredible friend. There is no doubt that Ryan would drop whatever he is doing if I needed his help. Something else about Ryan is that he and Jess were Prom Dates their senior year of high school and he is actually the reason that Jess and I met. One of the best memories with Ryan were our "Arby's Monday" runs for dinner during the football season on our off days. I cannot wait to celebrate this day with Ryan by my side. When you see Ryan at the wedding, some conversation topics include: Wrestling, the Eagles and Teaching
Rama Karadsheh
Bridesmaid
Rama and I are cousins, but growing up, I always saw her as my sister. We went through grade school together and studied and played after school. As we grew up, she was also my teammate on some of my volleyball and basketball teams. We spent weekends at the mall, bowling alley, and Dorney Park. Rama currently lives in Allentown, PA and is a health insurance advisor. I know that no matter where we end up in life, we will always be there for each other. When you see her at the wedding, conversation topics could include: traveling, cats, oldies music and hiking.
Omar Nassar
Groomsman
Omar and I met a few years ago at one of Jess's family events. He quickly became a friend that I could talk to about anything. Omar and I became LA Fitness treadmill buddies, food connoisseurs, and fantasy football experts. It quickly became clear that Omar plays a huge role in Jess's life. That combined with how quickly he welcomed me into the family made it an easy decision to have him by my side on this day for not only myself but also for Jess. When you see Omar at the wedding, some conversation topics include: the Eagles, the stock market, Tequila
Victoria Hamati-Sayegh
Bridesmaid
Vickie and I have been close since we were born. She is one of the cousins that I would have sleepovers with every weekend, walk home from school, and get through class together. We spent countless nights hanging out playing cards and drinking tea with all our cousins. Our relationship never changed regardless of if I was in town or halfway across the world. She is always the person that I can look at that will make me laugh just by hearing her laugh. When you see her at the wedding, conversation topics could include: aesthetics, working out, cooking
Michael Sayegh
Groomsman
Right from the start, Michael welcomed me into Jess's family with open arms. This is no exaggeration; Michael is the type of guy who would do anything for you no matter the time of day. He's got jokes for days and if you are lucky you will get to hear some! Michael is also a fantasy football king, with about 10 teams that he manages at a time (I swear it is a full-time job for him). Whether it be the two of us splitting 3 orders of tacos at Tacos Y Tequila, doing 50 mock fantasy football drafts or chilling in his basement watching football, my time with Michael is always incredible. It was an obvious choice to have Michael in the wedding and I am extremely excited to have him share this day with not only me but his cousin Jess. When you see Michael at the wedding, some conversation topics (in between all his jokes) include: Steelers, Tequila, Fantasy Football
Jacqui Hamati
Bridesmaid
Even though I’ve been taller than her since the 2nd grade, Jacqui is technically my older cousin and the closest thing I’ve had to a big sister growing up. But she’s always called me the courageous one. I helped her learn to enjoy eating veggies, to swim farther into the ocean, to pedal our bikes faster when we went downhill, to master the trampoline backflip, to keep adding weight in the gym, and just to keep growing unapologetically. Our nights went from being filled with movies, makeovers, mustard pizza, and manhunt to long stretches of being away from home studying to get our doctorates. Honestly, Jacqui has been pretty busy the last few years finishing up her medical training but I know she is so proud of me and how much I’ve matured. I’m so excited to have her here during this special day!! When you see her at the wedding, conversation topics could include: music, cooking, travel, coffee
Matthew Hamati
Groomsman
Matthew is Jess's cousin and we met at one of the first family gatherings of Jess's that I went to. From the start, Matthew made me feel as if I was a part of the family even though we had just met. One of the main reasons that Matthew and I hit it off is because he is one of the few people that can match my sarcasm. When I told Matthew that I would be proposing to Jess, his response was "We'll finally be able to call you cuz!". I am excited to share this special day with my new "cuz" as he also gets to be by Jess's side. Matthew graduated from Lehigh University and currently lives in New York.
Jenna Azar
Bridesmaid
I’ve known Jenna her entire life... because I watched her grow up. She is one of my many first cousins. I would visit her in Guadeloupe every Christmas and she would visit me in America every summer. We always kept in touch no matter the distance. She recently moved to America, which made our relationship grow even more. Jenna always looked up to me as her big sister so much so that everybody thinks we look like twins. She will always be my cuz cuz. Jenna is currently attending Moravian University majoring in Biology in hopes to become a physician. When you see her at the wedding, conversation topics could include: Traveling and sports
Andrew Youssef
Groomsman
Andrew is another one of Jess's cousins that is like another brother to me. He is one of the most reliable people I know and is always willing to lend me a hand. Whether it's moving a gun safe up my narrow apartment staircase in the middle summer or giving me advice on how to be a better shot when we go clay bird shooting, Andrew is always looking to help. I cannot thank him enough for all he has done for me and I cannot wait to officially call him family. When you see Andrew at the wedding, some conversation topics include: Lifting, Clay bird shooting, his Alfa Romeo
Jessica Azar
Bridesmaid
Jessi and I never really met. We were just like sisters since we were born. Her and I are 10 months apart and share the same first name. We never lived in the same country but that didn’t matter. I could go months without seeing her and we would always pick up where we left off. We would talk about everything and anything without any worries. Jessi has always been like a sister to me. When we were little, all girls around me would want to play with dolls. But she was the only one that would match my energy and play basketball. Jessi is someone I can always count on. I’m so happy to celebrate this day with you and fortunate to have you in my life. When you see her at the wedding, conversation topics could include, fashion, soccer, working out and traveling
Peter Hamati-Attieh
Groomsman
Peter, aka the 2nd best Attieh, is Jess' older brother. After the initial interrogation, Peter made me feel welcome at every family gathering. He quickly made me feel like part of the family. I am excited to have such a great brother-in-law that I can teach how to play cornhole... the right way! If you like competition, Peter is your guy. I have never played more intense games of Uno and Cornhole in my life. There will be plenty of that in the future and I can't wait! When you see Peter at the wedding, some conversation topics include: Body Building, Guns, His dog Nala
