Chelsea & Steven’s Wedding Day

Our Wedding

Once upon a time, two South Jersey washed up athletes decided to play beer league coed softball. After playing against each other on a field in Pennsauken (Chelsea's team won - obv), the two teams went back to the bar where Steve and Chelsea spent an hour talking and laughing with each other. They eventually parted ways, but Steve couldn't stop thinking about that beautiful girl that played shortstop better than any guy he knew ;) Fast forward 4 years to 2020, where Chelsea decided to take a trip to Connecticut for her best friend Caroline's bachelorette party. One night Chelsea decided to try and flip a solo cup on her butt and after 69873 tries, finally succeeded. The infamous video was posted on Instagram and Steve (with a little liquid courage) decided to message Chelsea to congratulate her on her engagement. Little did he know, it was her friend getting married and she was single! After a few days of flirting and quick-witted banter, Steve finally asked Chelsea out and they decided to meet for their first date at Central Taco in Haddonfield. Steve told Chelsea that the moment he saw her step out of her car he felt that she was going to be the woman of his dreams. Hopping from Brewers to Central Taco and back to Brewers, they spent almost 8 hours together experiencing the best date of both of their lifetimes. It was sealed the moment they went back to Chelsea's apartment and threw sticky nipples at a make-shift target against the wall. Two soulmates, finally finding their way to one another and merging their journeys into one. It's been 'kismet' ever since. (We can't wait to celebrate with all of our loved ones and make this thing official!!)

It's Kismet

How We Became 'Us'

Look at How Cute We Are

Will out drink you.  I don't care if you're 6'4", 275 pounds and a dude... She will still out drink you.  Find her at the bar.  One of the most genuine, down to earth and wonderful people I know.  Very good at softball but not nearly as good as me.  Ask her to show you a picture of her dislocated finger.  Constantly complains about her age even though she's more fun than a 22 year old.  A perfect best friend.

Chrissy Gerber (Gerbs, Harris)

Yes, she's tall.  And Puerto Rican.  We all know this.  She also survived stage 4 cancer and is by far the strongest person I know.  She will tell you you're feeling down because you are a Gemini with a 3rd rising moon as an injured Pisces and you just need to cleanse your chakras.  Stellar human being and person.  She is BFFs with Ellen DeGeneres and has been enemies with gluten since 'nam.

Julie Kramer (Juls, x0JulstaaK)

DECEIVINGLY spunky.  She may seem quiet but will destroy you with a one liner if you get on her bad side.  Doesn't know her own beauty.  She's reliable, sweet, thoughtful and an absolute weirdo.  Funniest person to boot.  Glue some rocks on a wall and watch her go crazy.  We've been through h*ll and back together and she means the world to me.  And I truly love her even though she plays Hearthstone.

Shannon Mayhew (Shanna Banana, Shanay)

She would jump in front of a bus for the people she loves, as long as she can pencil it into her calendar first.  A kind of friend that you can turn to for anything and she will ALWAYS be there.  Gives insane massages and will even throw you a Miller Lite in the shower while you're getting ready.  Would give the shirt off her back (literally - I've stolen so many of her clothes) if it meant helping someone.

Caroline McGinty (Care Bear, Carol)

Don't even ask her where she lives because it's everywhere and nowhere.  Also doesn't know her own beauty.  Snowboarding and artsy photo QUEEN.  Spent years of our childhood chasing her dog Chrissy around the yard, making home movies and dragging her brother Jon Jon down the stairs.  Her mom makes the world's best scrambled eggs.  Gorgeous person inside and out.  Her style is unmatched and she's definitely too cool to talk to you.

Katie Reale (Katherine)

A Fordham softball and college SISTER to me.  One of the most incredible artists I've ever seen.  Also appears reserved but will have you cracking up once she's 3 drinks in.  From either intense practices and conditioning in 95 degree heat or getting home from a night out in the Bronx, we've seen each other puke A LOT.  Has always had my back, and no matter the distance or time she will always be family to me.  She's as pure as an angel and if you look at her wrong I will milly rock you.

Christina Siesta (Tina, X)

A lot about our friendship history would be inappropriate to write on the internet.  Never seen someone balance their wild side with their professional career so well in my life.  A go-getter, a FANTASTIC boy mom, and an all around amazing friend.  The type of person who can bungee jump off the highest bridge in the world in South Africa after 4 bottles of wine the night before.  Beyond dependable and empathetic.  Her and I will always pick up right where we left off and never mature.  A goddess.

Amanda Eagle-Garcia (Mandy, Manda Panda)

Will also out drink you, tenfold.  Gorgeous face and an even more gorgeous soul.  I have never be more honored to gain a niece.  Cares and loves more than anyone I know.  Drinks Pink Whitney like water and can rally until the sun comes up.  Spiritual and driven.  Honored to see her grow into such a well-rounded woman.  Sweet as pie but will cut you with her words if you piss her off.  Resilient despite all she's been through - the human embodiment of a wildflower.

Alyx Cook

My brother from the same mother. As far back as I can remember this guy has been in my life. Rugged fella with a stone face who loves to dance when the drinks are flowing. Not the funniest guy out there but has one liner comebacks that will cripple you with laughter. Always there when you need him, has always stood by my side through everything. For all those ass kickings from him growing up (mostly my fault) I want to thank him, not for teaching me how to punch, but how to take them and keep moving forward.

John Cook (Johnny, BC, Better Cook, John John)

There is not one bad thing I can say about this guy. One of the most loyal people you will ever meet, Green Steve will give you the shirt off his back just because he knows you need it more. From meeting this guy about 12 years ago and me always being the better goalie to watching him become THE Goalie Steve has been an honor. Could not be happier to have this guy from the mean streets of Somerdale by my  side on the big day.

Steven Easterday (Goalie Steve, Green Steve)

I remember meeting this Justin Bieber haircut having younglin and hitting it off right away. From crashing into street signs to winning every championship in any sport we tried together. Being your friend has been one hell of a ride my friend, glad we took it together.  HERE WE ARE!!

Nick Markley

Possibly the funniest guy I have ever met in my life. We grew from coworkers to close friends. From my first time meeting him and asking if anyone ever told him he looked like Randy Jackson to spending almost every CigarFest together, to say we have shared a ton of laughs is an incredible understatment. MOODACONE!

Rhasaan McDaniel 

STOP!! Meet B to the RI, he's my B to the in-law. Feels more like a brother after knowing him the majority of my life. If it wasn't for this guy, I would have burnt my parents' house down with a pretzel. So, it's only fitting to have him by my side on my wedding day.
