Wedding Party
Nick Minnoe
Man of Honor
Nick and Melissa met freshman year of college and clicked instantly, more than 10 years later they are still ride or die for each other. There's just something about drinking vodka out of a water bottle and walking to parties in a hurricane together that bonds you together forever.
Haley Oill
Bridesmaid
Haley and Melissa met at Enterprise at RDU airport. While navigating a demanding job, they found comfort in each other's competencies and began to rely on each other, both at and outside of work. A few photoshoots and family members later, they remain inseparable.
Rose Marie LaPietra
Bridesmaid
Rose and Melissa met at Enterprise in Albany and quickly bonded over their wanderlust. It wasn't long until Melissa moved to Raleigh, and shortly after, Rose to Wilmington. As they made their way in the world they also made time for each other. Between beach weekends, country concerts, and Britney Spears theme parties, one thing was for certain, no amount of distance was keeping them apart.
Sheric Davis
Bridesmaid
Sheric was Melissa first became friends at Fidelity. Both were art majors who were diving into the world of Finance and realized they spoke the same language (spoiler alert, it wasn't economics.) They grew together, at Fidelity and in life and have even been known to be "joined at the hip." (IYKYK) Now, they are the Yin to the other’s Yang and truly balance each other out.
Jalissa Green
Bridesmaid
Jalissa and Melissa are sista's from another Mista'. After meeting at Fidelity, they (and others around them) quickly came to the conclusion they must have been separated at birth. Though they each have their own life and obligations, they continue to make each other a priority and now that they've found each other, they've got a sister for life.
Jenni Contini
Bridesmaid
Have you ever made a friend as an adult like you did in kindergarten? Just instantly? That’s Jenni. Jenni and Melissa met at Fidelity when they were partnered together to onboard a new hire team. Though, it came to light later they almost weren’t paired together for fear of it being “too much energy”-impossible! Their chemistry was instant, to the point where one of their employees even said “If I didn’t know any better, I would have sworn you two grew up together” and though we didn’t, we sure are making up for lost time.
Lucy Davis
Best Dog
Lucy entered Brandons life in 2017 and has been his #1 companion ever since. They are alike in a lot of ways, both love hikes, are skeptical of strangers and both took a liking to Melissa pretty quickly. Lucy has been there for Brandon in good times and in bad, and though she won't be able to stand with him the day of his wedding, (see "skeptical of strangers") she'll be the first one to welcome us home as a new family.
Amanda Davis
Groomswoman
As brother and sister, family was always a priority growing up for Brandon and Amanda, but somewhere along the way they started to choose to spend time together. Before they knew it, they were grown ups with their own lives but still always make time for each other.
Paul Davis
Groomsman
Paul is Brandon’s father, and would take Brandon on adventures from the mountains to the beach. They went to Boy Scouts together and worked on lots of hands-on projects. Paul helped Brandon develop his handyman skills that propelled him toward his future.
Joey Pablo
Groomsman
Joey entered Brandon’s life shortly after Sheric entered Melissa’s. At first, they were thrown together because their girlfriends were friends but they found quickly they had a lot in common. After having to keep up with talk of rental cars and finance for years, it was refreshing to find someone who spoke the same language and has a similar career.
