AFTER PARTY IS BACK ON

Our Wedding

Chelsea and Mike's love story began with a delightful twist of fate. Chelsea was looking to hire someone to re-do the kitchen in her new condo. Family friends Bob and Anita recommended a Father &amp; Son business that could get the job done right. Chelsea’s mom, Trish, was overseeing the renovation while Chelsea worked overnights in the ER. One day, Trish called Chelsea and told her she needed to come over and meet the handsome guy re-doing her kitchen. Tired from overnights, Chelsea begrudgingly came over and was not disappointed. When she saw Mike she instantly thought he was cute and decided to try to flirt with him while Trish hid in the other room.&nbsp; Chelsea sat at the kitchen table while Mike tried to find pieces of garbage to throw out so he would have an excuse to take a break from the kitchen and talk to her. All the while Dawayne, Mikes dad, oblivious to the budding romance taking place beside him, continued to lay tile in the kitchen. Soon, the renovation was complete and Chelsea thought about leaving her number on the counter, but chickened out. Mike however had the courage to reach out the next week using the greatest pick up line he could think of : “How did you like the backsplash?”, and the rest is history.&nbsp; They went on their first date the next week and have been inseparable ever since. Over the next three years, they built a relationship rooted in love, fun, and understanding.&nbsp; On a picturesque evening, Mike surprised Chelsea with a romantic proposal under a canopy of fireworks on Fourth of July weekend with both their families and friends present. With tears of joy, she said yes, and their journey towards forever began. Their love story serves as a reminder that true love finds its way in the most unlikely of circumstances and that you can in fact find a husband without leaving the comfort of your own home.

The Bridesmaids

Anita is Chelsea's cousin, as well as her first friend. She will be standing along side Ella, her sister, as Matron of Honor on the big day!  Anita and Chelsea have been inseparable since birth, doing everything together from sports to school.  Anita and Chelsea can pretty much laugh for hours about absolutely nothing. Mike even re-did Anita's house last year!

Anita

Ella is Chelsea's cousin and long time best friend.  She will be standing alongside Anita, her sister, as-co maid of honor on the big day. Chelsea and Ella's dangerously co-dependent friendship is built on a love for Taylor Swift,  drinking Starbucks/Dunkin or both, and sitting around talking about nothing for hours! 

Ella

If you're thinking to yourself, "Damn the bridal party looks so much alike - they could be sisters!" then you would be right! Emily is also Chelsea's cousin and close friend and happens to be the Maids of Honors' sister.  

Emily

Ally is Chelsea's sister-in-law and friend for the last 10 years! They are lucky enough to live across the street from each other. Ally often takes pity on Mike and sends over home cooked meals because although Chelsea has many talents, cooking is not one of them. 

Ally

Victoria is Mike's sister and Chelsea's friend. They immediately bonded over spicy murder books and wine - what more does a friendship need?

Victoria

Lindsey has been Chelsea's close friend for the past 20+ years. After meeting on the bus in 4th grade, they've been inseparable ever since! They roomed together at the University of Delaware where they did nothing but study and did not at all party....

Lindsey

Kylie has been Chelsea's close friend for the past 20 + years. Their respective parents actually met at college, 10 years later they reconnected when their daughters were put on the same pee-wee soccer team.  Through the years they navigated elementary, middle, and high school together until they eventually went off to college to the University of Delaware. In an effort to "branch-out", they decided to do a random dorm lottery... but the universe had other plans. They were put in the same dorm, on the same floor, 2 doors down from each other. They finally listened to the signs and roomed together the next 3 years, and the rest is history!

The Groomsmen

Matt is Mike's brother and first friend. They grew up doing everything together from pulling all nighters playing halo as young kids to cars and guns as adults they have done it all. Mike could not imagine anyone else by his side on the big day.  Fun Fact: Matt moonlights as an Amateur Male Model as evidenced by the above photo. 

Matthew

Mikey B has been Mike's best friend and brother from another mother for the last 25 years doing everything together from getting into trouble to well... getting into trouble.  Mikey B and his wife Emily met Chelsea and Mike out when they first started dating at what was supposed to be a small dinner with Chelsea's cousins (The Maids of Honor). Three espresso martinis turned into six, and they all wound up staying out all night. The rest is history.

Mike

Ryan is the bride's brother. Mike and Ryan can be found talking about guns or drinking whiskey. (It's the male equivalent to drinking wine and braiding each others hair.) 

Ryan

Nabeel has been part of the Schiavone family ever since he began dating Victoria, Mike's sister. He brings much needed Colombian flair to this very white family. 

Nabeel

Joe and Mike have been friends for 15 years and Joe remains a staple in The Schiavone Family. It's not a party until Joe walks in. The Man. The Myth. The Legend. 

Jacob and Mike have been friends for 8 years. They met when Matt was serving in the Navy. They talk via xbox almost daily while losing to teenagers in Call of Duty ( It's cheaper than therapy...sort of )
