Jessica "Jess" was Alex's freshman year roommate in college and they remained roommates throughout the next four years. After college, their friendship continued and they shared many birthdays and other celebrations and trips together over the past 10 years.
Alexander Eng - Best Man
Alex and Dan were fast friends from their first meeting at Penn State, but became even closer after college over countless music festivals and weekends at The Mont in Philly. While their DJ duo never quite took off(there's still time), they still bond by sending each other any new music they find. Dan is grateful to be able to return the honor being Alex's Best Man at his wedding.
Angel Mariotti - Bridesmaid
Angel and Alex met at Rotelli in downtown State College where they both worked as servers (can you say trauma bond!?). They became fast friends and have remained close even after escaping the restaurant industry. Their shared love for food and going out (back in the day mostly) fuels their friendship.
Alexander Scheffer - Groomsman
Alex and Dan met in college, but became closer after graduation sharing in the annual fall roller-coaster that is being a Penn State football fan. If they're not at Beaver stadium it's likely they're playing mediocre golf at some some beautiful course Dan isn't sure he should be allowed on.
MJ Tetzlaff - Bridesmaid
MJ and Alex met through Angel and quickly became friends. You could say Angel is the extrovert that decided to collect them both. They love to troll each other while playing Mario Party and never forget or forgive a stolen star.
Austin McCollum - Groomsman
Austin and Dan's friendship really started because they seemed to be the only two people in the fraternity who were ever awake before noon. They bonded over a shared obsession with music and attended every festival they could together.
Kristin Getz - Bridesmaid
Kristin and Alex met and became friends through their Dans. From The State Theatre in State College to Riverfront Park in South Carolina, they're always down for a live music adventure.
Daniel Getz - Groomsman
Dan and Dan also met in college(notice a theme here?) and became closer after graduation as they both stayed local to the State College area. Now the two Dans, Alex, and Kristin spend most weekends together playing board games, attending concerts, and putting together some flawless Spotify playlists.
Brittany Weiss - Bridesmaid
Brittany and Alex met while working together at UPMC in Altoona - they started on the same day! Both of them knew about one another going in and happened to run into each other in the lobby that first day. From work besties to IRL besties!
Danny dePasquale - Groomsman
Danny and Dan were in the same pledge class in college and spent probably too much time playing Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros. They made a lot of great memories in their 20s hanging out in Philly and and taking occasional trips up to Danny's cabin in the Poconos.
Kendrik Jones - Bridesman
Kendrik and Alex also met while working together at UPMC in Altoona. Shortly after he started; Brittany, Kendrik, and Alex became three peas in a pod and brightened up the office with laughter. I'll say it again - from work besties to IRL besties!
Eric DiMuzio - Groomsman
Eric and Dan also met at Penn State and always had a friendly competition of who could find the best new music. Eric is one of the most persuasive people you've ever met, especially when he's trying to get you to sit down to a 6+ hour board game. At least you always know the soundtrack will be fantastic.
