The Panciolis
Wedding Party
Ella Hipsley
Maid of Honor
From Homecomings and Prom to now Bridal Showers and Weddings we have always had each other's back! Between traveling to Greece and Italy to moving into our "grown-up" apartments, Ella and Anna often refer to each other as each other's "lobsters" (see this Friend's reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TyvRjF0NBeM).
Cassie Hyers
Bridesmaid
After meeting in youth group their senior year of high school, Cassie and Anna were roommates for all four years of college at the University of Dayton. From a tiny dorm room in Founders Hall to their senior house on Kiefaber Street, they experienced all that college had to offer with each other by their sides and with coffees in their hands.
Kiersten Duffy
Bridesmaid
After meeting Freshman year of college, Kiersten and Anna have played endless hours of Mario Kart, binge watched movies together, and had random dance parties throughout college. Kiersten is most often found with a bowl of Trader Joe's orange chicken and/or facetiming with Anna.
Anna Gagliardino
Bridesmaid
Anna and Anna were roommates for 3 years throughout college (it sounds more confusing than it actually was). They have shared in endless laughter, a common appreciation for baked goods, and spontaneous shopping trips.
Connor Sheehy
Co-Best Man
Connor and JP have been family friends for 20 years and have been best friends since high school. They have a shared love for socratic debates, rock music, and cooking. With an unparalleled capacity for sarcasm, Connor has always made traditionally tough political conversations strangely enjoyable.
Joe Zabbatino
Co-Best Man
Joe and JP might actually be brothers (which would be extra confusing considering he already has a brother named Joe!). After literally growing up together since pre-school, the two of them have stuck together through thick and thin. Joe's loyalty, authenticity, and colorful language are a few of the things that make him unique.
Dave Brockhoff
Groomsman
Starting out as frisbee teammates, JP and Dave ended up becoming more like brothers by their final year of college. They share a love for the outdoors, cooking, and riding bikes around Clifton and are often found laughing over basically nothing.
Mike Finke
Groomsman
Believe it or not, Mike was actually a professional Ultimate Frisbee player (no big deal but we know a professional athlete). Mike and JP spend their time together by discussing how to solve all of the world's biggest issues... unfortunately, no progress has been made. Mike's true authenticity and down-to-earth attitude make him one of JP's closest friends.
Alex Mumma
Bride's Brother
Alex, Anna's oldest brother, is currently serving as a 2nd Lieutenant Officer in the United States Marine Corps. His passion for adventure and travel has served him well and he is known for his random facetime check-in calls. With an ability to light up the room and his endless loyalty to friends and family, he has always been one of Anna's inspirations.
Ryan Mumma
Bride's Brother
Ryan, Anna's second oldest brother, currently lives in Maryland with his beautiful wife, Janica. The two are proud owners of 2 wonderful dogs (Anna's niece and nephew) as well as one particularly feisty cat. If you ever need someone to tell you fun trivia facts, quirky dance moves, and terrible dad jokes, Ryan is your guy!
Bobby Mumma
Bride's Brother
Bobby, Anna's 3rd oldest brother -- the closest in age to her, has just finished his second year of law school at the University of Dayton School of Law. While they used to fight like non other as kids, they now regularly call to vent about school and laugh about the craziness of some of the cases they read. If Bobby ever gets to control the music, be ready to listen to a wide range of artists and genres.
Joe Pancioli
Groom's Brother
While many remember him with a mohawk from high school, JP knows him as a selfless and dedicated brother. JP and Joe are often taking on new athletic challenges (for example, a 50-mile ultramarathon!) and trying out every golf course in the greater Cincinnati area. Joe and his wife Bre have a beautiful house in Blue Ash and are often hosting all of the Pancioli siblings for game night. Also make sure to congratulate them on their new baby!
Elliot Pancioli
Groom's Brother
If you are ever in need of a local organic farmer or someone to talk to about life, Elliot is the person to call! JP and Elliot grew up close as middle children and were always balancing the polar forces of their older and younger brothers. Elliot's passion for social justice and political activism make him a force to be reckoned with!
Luke Pancioli
Groom's Brother
Luke and JP have formed a tight bond and many memories together, especially because they shared a bedroom while growing up. The two of them have always benefited from bouncing ideas off of one another and questioning why things are the way they are. (Side note: when Anna and JP started dating, she was over a foot taller than Luke... Luke is now over 6 ft tall)
