Ryan & Maria
Wedding Party
Emily Natoli
Maid of Honor
Emily is my younger sister and Maid of Honor. We're very similar and it often creeps people out. I can always count on Emily for good, honest advice. She has amazing style and taste and often dresses me. We enjoy thrifting, binge watching our favorite tv shows, dominating tv show trivia at our local bars, and scream-singing in the car together.
Katie Natoli
Maid of Honor
Katie is my younger sister and Maid of Honor. As a newlywed, she has been an amazing resource and empathizer for all things wedding related. I can always count on Katie for her level headedness, honesty, and support. We enjoy doing yoga, thrifting, and DIY Halloween costumes.
Taresa Schneider
Bridesmaid
Taresa and I have been friends for 23 years. We both actually remember the day we became friends (threading beads onto necklaces in Mrs. Green's morning kindergarten class, the classic bff story). T and I grew up together playing softball, playing in our grade school band, girl scouts, being Italian, etc. We appreciate a good limoncello and any/all Jonas Brothers songs (pic is from their last concert, enjoy).
Rebekah Hoffman
Bridesmaid
Bekah and I were in the same major at Pitt. We became close friends not only through all of our classes together, but also our love of beer and being super weird. I knew she was a ride or die one night at Bootleggers that involves apple pie vodka and an earring...I'll spare you the rest of the details. Bekah's a master crafter and can literally crochet/knit anything. I'm thankful for her friendship and also for being momma to my flower girl Maggie Lou (and new-to-the-crew, Juniper)!
Maggie Lou Hoffman
Flower Girl
Maggie Lou is going to be the most beautiful little flower girl. We share a love of dogs, eating, and Frozen. I'm so honored to be her "Aunt Wee-ah".
Rose Natoli
Mother of the Bride
Mother of the Bride, Rose, deserves an award (or at least multiple rounds of shots) for dealing with two kids' weddings in a single year. Despite the craziness of this past year, with covid and two weddings, Rose has (mostly) kept her cool and has been a tremendous resource for wedding planning and overall life advice. We can always count on Rose to both tell it like it is as well as be our fiercest advocate.
Joe Natoli
Father of the Bride
As Joe mentioned in his Father of the Bride speech at Katie Natoli's wedding, please keep his investment portfolio in your thoughts and prayers as he has two children getting married this year. We can always count on Joe for his support and rational advice. He's his daughters' biggest fan whether he wants to admit it or not. We're excited for his speech and expect to get thoroughly roasted.
