Stella Tantillo
Maid of Honor
The bride’s younger sister & lifelong friend. We shared everything growing up from clothes to a bedroom! We’ve been through all of it together, the straight cut bangs, colored skinny jeans, and of course endless Jonas Brothers concerts! You can typically find us at Walmart getting the most random of things and laughing uncontrollably.

The Groom's Brother. Being the typical Big Brother, he's always trying to impart his life's wisdom on Dustin whenever possible! (Thank goodness Dustin doesn't listen to him half the time!) He's a full time Electrician with a flair for cooking. The Grill IS his domain!
