Our Wedding

Fate brought Emily and Jamie together one night in Boston in&nbsp;June 2014, where they met&nbsp;while enjoying a night out in the city with their&nbsp;respective friends. After realizing their mutual love for tennis and EDM music, they began dating until Jamie finally asked Emily to be his girlfriend.&nbsp; They've spent the last five&nbsp;years laughing, dancing, traveling, and attending as many professional tennis tournaments as possible. One of those tournaments is&nbsp;the International Tennis Hall of Fame Open in Newport, which they've attended every July. How fitting to combine their love of the sport with their favorite tradition on their wedding day.&nbsp;











We can't wait for you to celebrate the best day of our lives with us at the International Tennis Hall of Fame in September!



































Love,&nbsp;



































Emily &&nbsp;Jamie

Coronavirus Update





















We are monitoring the reopening guidelines in Rhode Island carefully and are preparing to take every precaution necessary to make our wedding safe for our guests. As of 8/1 Rhode Island is on Massachusetts' travel restriction list. There are currently&nbsp;no travel restrictions between New Jersey and Rhode Island.

















We wanted to share the guidelines from our venue with you because providing a day that is comfortable and safe for you all&nbsp;is our utmost priority. 

 

















Our wedding will be fully outdoors! In case of inclement weather, only the ceremony will be moved indoors, which is properly ventilated and all doors will be kept open. Face coverings will be required when not eating or drinking or if distance cannot be maintained.

















We are expecting under 80 guests at this time. For the reception, tables will be spaced 6 feet apart and there will only be 6 people per table. We will do our best to seat households together.

 

















Wait staff will be wearing masks and gloves for the entirety of the wedding. All food will be served directly to you by the wait staff.

 

















Tennis Hall of Fame staff will clean restrooms every hour and hand sanitizing stations will be located around the property.

 

















We will update this section with any changes, so check back often, and we look&nbsp;forward to seeing you on September 26!

The Start Of It All

Our Story

Details

Photos

Jamie's best friend and partner in crime, Henry (aka Henroc)&nbsp;has been a constant over the past 12&nbsp;years. From Rutgers to Boston, their friendship has remained strong. There may be a few less calls a week, but their&nbsp;conversations never miss a beat -- always planning the next outing at the Jersey Shore before recapping the night's events the next day. Jamie has always admired Henry's outgoing personality and is thankful to have him in his life and standing next to him on his wedding day.

Henry

Sarah is Emily's best and only sister. From playing with Bratz dolls as kids, arguing over who gets to use the bathroom first to get ready for school,&nbsp;always&nbsp;being mistaken for twins,&nbsp;and so&nbsp;many vacations, celebrations, and nights out, Emily couldn't be happier to have her beautiful sister by her side&nbsp;as her Maid of Honor.

Sarah

Gillian and Emily have been best friends since they were in the womb, literally. As Gillian likes to tell everyone she meets, their parents met in child birth class and they were born exactly one&nbsp;month a part. Gillian has been there for Emily through every step of her life from daycare, to high school, through college, and now, and she is ecstatic to have her lifelong best friend by her side on her wedding day.

Gillian

Younger brother and first friend, Vincent (aka Vinnie)&nbsp;has&nbsp;always been&nbsp;there for Jamie -- sometimes&nbsp;to make him&nbsp;laugh, but usually to&nbsp;stop him from making a fool of himself. Vincent has always been the cooler brother, which Jamie would never admit in person. They've been through a lot together and Jamie is thrilled to have his brother by his side.

Vincent

The ultimate caretaker, Patrick (aka P-Baby) will always be&nbsp;the baby in the family, and yet&nbsp;somehow also the one we look to for advice. Jamie may have given his little brother a hard time growing up, but there are few people he admires and cares more about today. Jamie's excited to have Patrick in the groom squad -- and for him to help plan the wedding ;)

Patrick

Kerrianne and Emily met freshman year of high school and initially&nbsp;bonded over being only&nbsp;two of three freshman on the Peabody High tennis team.&nbsp;They remained best friends through&nbsp;out high school and college, and even rented an apartment in Stoneham together for two years. Emily is so happy to have her fellow cat-lover by her side on her wedding day.

Kerrianne

Andrew (aka Big Guy)&nbsp;was one of Jamie's first&nbsp;and best&nbsp;friends at Rutgers. They lived across the hall from each other Freshman year and found they had a lot in common, including being huge Eagles fans (go Birds!). Later they lived together in school and when they started their first jobs.&nbsp;Jamie could talk to Andrew about anything and&nbsp;is grateful for their friendship that&nbsp;continues to this day. Jamie is happy to have Andrew standing with him as a groomsman -- all 6'4" of him.

Andrew

Lindsey and Emily met in their Intro to Film/Video class at Fitchburg State their freshman year of college. They eventually became roommates junior year, and Lindsey was even the one to initially introduce&nbsp;Emily to fellow bridesmaids Andrea and Chelsea! Lindsey is the master of bringing friends together and Emily would not have survived college without her!&nbsp;

Lindsey

Sam and Jamie's friendship started at Rutgers and continued when they both moved to Boston. From countless game nights, dinners, super bowls and Peroni, Sam has become&nbsp;one of&nbsp;Jamie's best and most loyal&nbsp;friends. Jamie could not imagine his New England wedding without Sam being in it.

Emily met Andrea through&nbsp;an&nbsp;introduction from Lindsey one day&nbsp;at lunch their Sophomore year of college at Fitchburg State. They initially bonded over&nbsp;their love for nail polish and nail art, and became fast friends. Emily was devastated when Andrea moved across the country to Colorado in 2017, now&nbsp;only being able to see each other a few times a year, but their long-distance friendship has remained strong!

Andrea

Emily met Chelsea her junior year at Fitchburg State through Lindsey, where they only spent a year together at school before Emily graduated. They became closer friends once&nbsp;Chelsea moved to Boston and countless parties, celebrations, game nights, and dinner dates ensued.

Chelsea

Terry was one of the first people Jamie met when he started his new job outside of Boston. Terry&nbsp;made Jamie feel like he belonged from Day 1 and&nbsp;is proud to call this guy a friend.&nbsp;They shared an apartment together for a year in Medford before moving in with their better halves. Terry is one of the most genuine people Jamie has ever known and is honored to call him a groomsman.&nbsp;

Terry

Isabella is Jamie's Goddaughter and&nbsp;the coolest kid&nbsp;we know. When she's not in Disney or playing with her two dogs, Isabella is probably adding to her superhero toy collection. A veteran&nbsp;flower girl, Isabella has vowed to retire after her Godfather's wedding. We're excited for her to be a part of our special day.
