Corey Nienstedt - Maid of Honor
Corey and Gabby found love in a hopeless place (the jersey shore). They were next-door neighbors when living in Belmar in the summer of 2015 and became so close that the following year they upgraded to roommates and the rest is history. They became besties instantly with 4 little words, "you're a leo too!?" Corey is the type of friend that will always make time to listen and celebrates every moment with you (big, small and everything in-between).
Samantha Fenske - Bridesmaid
Samantha (Sami) and Gabby have been besties since high school. Their love for good films (Disney movies), high quality foods (Velvetta cheese dips made by Sami's mom), and not taking life too seriously has kept them laughing and friends for 14 years (almost half of their lives).
Ariel Mizrahi - Bridesmaid
Ariel and Gabby have also been close since high school (16 years)! Their favorite past times include lounging in Ariel's living room watching Ariel's suggested Netflix watches or relaxing down the shore. Fun fact: Ariel has never missed any of Gabby's Birthday celebrations over the past 16 years (claps for Ariel, she's the best).
Mickala Rector - Bridesmaid
Mickala is the bride's sister and longest friend. Mickala is 6-years Gabby's senior and so had the privilege of babysitting Gabby for most of her teen years (free of charge) and was a great sister to look up to growing up.
Gabriela Fonseca - Bridesmaid
It's a great name, right? Gab and Gab call each other Gab and Gab. They understand this may be confusing to others. Gab met Gab waitressing together at IHOP in 2012 and Gab has been explaining to Gab what being a Scorpio means since then (we love a lady Scorpio). Gab still keeps forgetting what that means and needs to be reminded, but that's ok because that's what Gab is here for.
Tiffani Olszak - Bridesmaid
Tiffani and Gabby met when they were just four years old. They have seen almost all moments of each other's lives and have a bond comparable to that of sisters. The bride asks you kindly refrain from asking Tiffani any childhood stories involving the bride's attempts at being a "musher" (dog sled).
Maya - Dog of Honor/Best Dog
Maya is 99.9% of Anthony and Gabby's personality and the reason their sun rises and sets each day. She will not be in attendance due to her fear of car rides, but she will be eating bones from afar in celebration of her mommy and daddy getting married.
Mike Hernandez - Best Man
Love at first workout. The two met at a gym and have been inseparable ever since.
Paul Duerr - Officiant and Groomsman
On paper Paul and Anthony couldn’t be more different and that is why they were destined to be brothers. Somewhere in the Civil War trivia and woodwork teaching a bond was formed that both needed.
Tim Sherry - Groomsman
Tim is Anthony’s uncle by title, but brother by bond. Their relationship is represented by consistently having to explain to people ‘why your uncle is only 3 years older than you.’
Kyle Holly - Groomsman
Kyle and Anthony grew up together in a lake community and in seeing each other daily they built a bond that enables them to go months without speaking (and days without unanswered texts…Kyle) without missing a beat.
