Our Wedding

Our first date was at Burke and Wills on the Upper West Side (UWS) of Manhattan in June 2016. We spent that summer exploring the city and traveling to upstate NY for weekend adventures. We were both in school when we met&nbsp;and many of our dates that&nbsp;fall involved doing homework together. Kunal proposed in front of Niagara Falls on April 20th, 2018!&nbsp; We're excited to start this next phase of our life&nbsp;with the love and support of our friends and family surrounding us.&nbsp;

Zach Levine is a CPA, entrepreneur, aspiring author, and awesome friend.&nbsp;Knowing Kunal since their days together at Binghamton University, Zach has always been a source of antics, and jokes. Zach is also a very caring individual who goes out of his way to make others feel welcome and included, regardless of their background. Since he is currently living the good life far out on Eastern Long Island with his wife,&nbsp;Alyson, it might be&nbsp;wise for guests to use this wedding as an opportunity to&nbsp;get to know Zach. He is the only guy&nbsp;known to be able to process both&nbsp;personal and business related taxes while doing a headstand!

Before Emily, but after Cookie Crisp, there was Samson. Kunal's life partner, friend, and brother, Samson Jacob will act as best man for Kunal as he enters a new stage in his life. Together Sam and Kunal have seen the sights, smelled the smells, and grown up. Samson&nbsp;is also&nbsp;moving into the next stage of his life as he soon will be&nbsp;marrying his vibrant fiance, Helen Hong, next year. Musician, researcher, hipster, and all around pillar of the community, Kunal is honored to have been the purveyor and recipient of many years of love, laughs, and advice from his closest friend, and looks forward to continuing this tradition.

Samson Jacob

My (Emily’s) older sister, wife to Martin, and incredible&nbsp;momma of 4 beautiful kids. She&nbsp;is also&nbsp;a yoga teacher, cyclist, and an active&nbsp;advocate&nbsp;for safe beauty/cosmetic products! Chelsea inspires me every day, not just in what she does (and that's a long list!) but in who she is. She is my role model but also an incredible&nbsp;friend.&nbsp;

Chelsea Bayer

The second funniest man to come out of Jefferson Avenue,&nbsp;Dennis is Kunal's oldest friend&nbsp;and is&nbsp;a modern day Renaissance man. When not serving&nbsp;the youth of the "Boogie Down Bronx" as a math teacher&nbsp;at Frederick Douglass Academy, Dennis serves our nation as a member of the US Army.

Mel Yanson is one of the first friends Kunal made when moving to the Big Apple. As an Elmhurst, NY native and culinary savant, Mel reintroduced Kunal to many of the&nbsp;Queens&nbsp;food&nbsp;hotspots that Kunal had&nbsp;traversed as a kid. Mel also introduced Kunal to&nbsp;a whole cast of characters in his second home of the East Village, NY. A&nbsp;master of Brazilian jujitsu, a world class chef, and proud new poppa of twins, Mel is riding high&nbsp;since he has taken his show on the road and settled in the Windy City&nbsp;with his&nbsp;wife, Rachel Yanson. Look no further than Mel if you want to see the dream alive and well!

Pete Ungberg is a one of Kunal's closest colleagues and friends. Despite the&nbsp;monotony of&nbsp;the&nbsp;9 to 5, Pete remains always&nbsp;optimistic and kind. A true&nbsp;baller on all levels, Pete is always up on the latest&nbsp;jams&nbsp;and he also&nbsp;hits the basketball court with regularity. As if that wasn't enough, he's also a&nbsp;painter!&nbsp;

My (Emily’s) younger sister and fellow bride (she's getting married in September 2018!)&nbsp;Olivia and I share a love of books, coffee, nature (except she loves fields and forests and I love the ocean!), and long walks. She's the recipient of almost all my wedding-stress-related phone calls for the last six months and I&nbsp;couldn't be more grateful! Olivia is one of the kindest and gentlest people that I&nbsp;know, but she'll defend the people she loves against any odds.&nbsp;I'm proud to call her my sister and my friend.&nbsp;

Olivia Byrne (Womack)

One of Emily’s best friends for over 15 years! Part of the Fab Four (Emily, Mackenzie, Annie, Angela). Mackenzie constantly amazes me with her ability to always pursue her goals. Not only is she an accountant, an avid concert-goer, and craft-beer aficionado,&nbsp;but she is also&nbsp;now pursuing a degree in mechanical engineering. We're all pretty sure she's going to work for NASA someday. Her ability to speak honestly and with love, especially&nbsp;when things are difficult, is only one of her many incredible traits and I'm grateful to have her in my life!&nbsp;

Mackenzie Snapp 

One of Emily’s best friends for over 15 years! Part of the Fab Four (Emily, Mackenzie, Annie, Angela). When Angela isn't&nbsp;traveling to third-world countries to teach children, she's helping to take care of children here in the US. She's basically an angel with&nbsp;a wicked sense of humor!&nbsp;Her practical jokes are legendary. Just ask her sister, Annie.....&nbsp;Angela is the type of friend who will always listen with compassion and without judgement&nbsp;and will then give you the best advice!&nbsp;

Angela Mahoney 

One of Emily’s best friends for over 15 years! Part of the Fab Four (Emily, Mackenzie, Annie, Angela). Annie is a fierce and loyal friend, always there to answer emergency phone calls or texts, and she gives the best pep talks. Even when she's working (which is almost always, since&nbsp;she's a museum curator AND&nbsp;a beauty consultant), she&nbsp;always finds a way to be present&nbsp;for the people in her life.&nbsp;

Annie Mahoney

Emily’s nephew and Simon's big brother!&nbsp;He'll be helping make sure that Simon makes it down to the alter with both rings.

Jeremy Bayer

Emily’s nephew and the youngest member of the wedding party. Little brother to Jeremy and Eleanor, but most recently became a big brother to baby Finn!

Simon Bayer

My (Emily’s) oldest niece (daughter of Chelsea and Martin) and amazing big sister to Jeremy, Simon, and baby Finn.&nbsp;
