Kristen & Patrick
Wedding Party
Kelly
Matron of Honor
Kelly is Krissy’s sister, godmother, and overall role model! From the moment Krissy was born, Kelly has been teaching her everything she knows. It’s no surprise she’d be a huge part of this special day! She brings the fun and the road sodas!!
Lauren
Maid of Honor
Lauren is Krissy’s sister and best friend, but often confused as her twin. Inseparable, Lauren can often be found wherever Krissy is! They have been travel buddies since 1992. Lauren brings good music with her wherever she goes and rallies long past Krissy’s bedtime.
Joannlee
Bridesmaid
Joannlee and Krissy have a sisterhood that spans decades! From museums to cafes, they typically get lost in conversation anywhere they go. Joannlee’s interests in international travel and pop culture peak Krissy’s sense of wonder.
Hailey
Bridesmaid
Hailey and Krissy met during the most fundamental times of their lives - kindergarten! Masters of circle time, these two have been sharing and caring together since 1997. Now they continue circle time over courses of tapas, sangria, and Bachelorette Mondays.
Sofie
Bridesmaid
Sofie joined Krissy during her first teaching year as her coteacher. Their friendship started as shared frustration at work, but blossomed into the beautiful relationship it is today! Currently, they work in different schools but still find it absolutely necessary to meet up for Thursday night happy hour. It’s pretty much mandatory in their field of work.
Kristin
Bridesmaid
Kristin and Krissy have been friends for half of their lives! Although opposite in nature (Manhattan vs. Queens, Mets vs. Yankees, Cats vs. Dogs), these two are on the same page when it comes to having fun!! You can catch them at their favorite vineyard sipping bottomless wine, making new memories!
Farrah
Bridesmaid
Farrah and Krissy first bonded in high school during honors classes but solidified their friendship later on during several visits to Angelo’s Pizza. Their shared love of brick oven pizza eventually blossomed over the years. Their fondest memories are of their San Francisco/Napa Valley trip where they most definitely turned water into wine.
Emily
Bridesmaid
Emily and Krissy met freshman year of high school and then basically didn’t see each other until 2018. Since then, they have been together nonstop. Every summer, they take a trip on the LIRR to take in some vitamin D and wine of course. Expect some witty banter from Emily if you happen to bump into her.
Carolina
Bridesmaid
Carolina and Krissy first met in high school, but their friendship has grown ever since. Their shared love of cocktails and steaks is perfectly balanced out with their love of cardio. Weekend calories don’t count.
Kallie
Bridesmaid
Kallie and the bride met in college because Krissy kept saying hi to her and eventually Kallie had no choice but to become her friend. Travel buddies and mediocre cookie decorators, there’s nothing these two can’t try to attempt! Kallie brings sarcasm with her wherever she goes and it’s much appreciated.
Jessica
Bridesmaid
Jessica and Krissy met in the boogie down Bronx. Just kidding, it was Riverdale. Bonded by the teacher education program, they have been complaining to each other happily since 2011! Their friendship spans the distance & they have been on several trips together. You can find them at brunch or happy hour, gossiping most likely.
Elaine
Bridesmaid
Elaine and Krissy met in college when they were in education classes. They quickly realized they were hated by the same professor and formed an anonymous support group to handle the pain. Since then, whenever they’re together, trouble ensues and the best memories are made!
Tatiana
Bridesmaid
Tatiana and Krissy met in English class freshman year of college and bonded over being the only two people in the entire class who did their daily homework. Their friendship took them to places like the college cafeteria and Burger King. Since then, their love of fine dining and bougie attitudes have taken them all over NYC and has helped them craft many fond memories.
Jennifer
Bridesmaid
Jennifer and Krissy met at CMSV college orientation and became friends shortly after! From Friday night dinners in college to international travel together later on, their friendship leveled up over time! Waking up before the crack of dawn on a trip isn’t easy, but it’s more tolerable when surrounded by good friends, like Jennifer!
Jason
Best Man
One of Patrick's best friends, Jason is a gregarious and friendly person who may or may not be related to Patrick (we're not quite sure). Jason is usually at karaoke or at a Yankee game, where he is prone to showing his Derek Jeter swing or watching a Giants game (which hopefully as of this writing will be better as of 2023).
Eric
Best Man
Eric is one of Patrick's best friends. A loyal and funny person, he's usually up to some shenanigans at a Jersey City pub singing karaoke. Please don't get him started about pro wrestling though, between him and Patrick they'll both talk your ear off.
Larry
Groomsman
Larry is the brother of the bride. You can find him shooting pool and throwing back Bud Lights at his favorite Upper East Side bar. He and the groom get caught up in sports or video games conversations, especially when beers are involved.
Marcelo
Groomsman
One of Patrick's oldest friends, Marcelo is an avid fan of the anime and comics that him and Patrick share. Marcelo might give off the illusion of being a shy person, but he's secretly a party animal. (Not really but he's still fun and a great guy)
Sebastian
Groomsman
A long time friend of Patrick's, Sebastian is an extremely energetic and always entertaining person who absolutely loves to dance and loves encouraging others to dance as well. But please don't give him driving directions, unless you want him to end up lost in Livingston, New Jersey.
Jason M.
Groomsman
Jason, or his common moniker (Morales), is a long time friend of Patrick's. An incredibly talented musician, he's always an interesting conversation. His only Achilles heel is just quite that…it's never quite summer until he hurts his ankle playing football with Jason Reilly and the rest of the Beacon st /JCR crew.
David
Groomsman
David is a friend of Patrick's. He is an avid comic reader and local Jersey City rapper known as Murdock. He's always a personable and even-tempered person, up until you accidentally cut off his favorite song. (Right, Eric?)
Rob
Groomsman
Rob is the bride’s brother from another mother. A grill master, Rob sure knows how to cook for a crowd! Rob is a very knowledgeable person, as evident by the fact that he’s a Yankees fan just like the groom (bride disagrees about the Yankees).
Allison
Flower Girl
Allison was destined to be a flower girl and so much more! She’s been training for the role since 2019 and actually was a flower girl when she was 3 months old! The bride and groom understand that Allison and her baby brother will 100% steal the spotlight with their charm and adorableness.
Robert
Ring Bearer
The youngest in the group, Robert already has status. He may not walk yet, but his joyful personality and handsome little face has landed him the important position of ring bearer. He may have to work and grow the hardest for his role, but everyone knows he’s up for the challenge.
Jameson & Bailey
Cats of Honor
Jameson and Bailey are the bride and groom’s adopted furry children. They don’t really seem to understand what’s going on, but promise to be on their best behavior on their wedding day (but only if they get to have the filet mignon).
