Wedding Party
Alyssa Rutkiewicz
Matron of Honor
Alyssa and Sam became best friends in kindergarten. It's no secret that Sam is short and on the first day, she couldn't reach to hang her backpack up so she looked to the tall girl next to her and asked for help. Alyssa shrugged and hung the backpack up, neither of them knowing it would start a lifelong friendship; 21 years to be exact this September!
Louise Bjornberg
Bridesmaid
Lou and Sam were college roommates whose friendship began over pickles and a new Taylor Swift album! Most of their friendship has been spent states away from one another but through the power of FaceTime, they have remained as close as ever! Sam will be in Lou's wedding in June and they're both happy to keep the party going in October for Sam and Chris!
Stephanie LaSpina
Maid of Honor
"My Person". Steph and Sam became friends in one of their college baking lectures. While they had never spoken before, Sam noticed Steph being less than her usual, upbeat self and sent an Instagram message offering to lend an ear. Steph was quickly adopted by Sam and her group of friends and the rest is history!
Kodie LaFrance
Bridesmaid
Sam and Kodie started bartending together at The Whip back in 2017. It was an interesting start to a friendship but the two became the best of friends over a shot of tequila one Saturday night after working the day together. It has been nothing but smiles, laughter and a whole lot of adventure ever since!
