Our Wedding

Like every love story, ours started during a pandemic...on a dating app...that moved to Snapchat and finally an in person date at a local place by the name of Davenports. It's not every day you meet your true love, but choosing to meet someone in person, fresh out of a nationwide shut down is on par with how the rest of our story goes. That night Joe and I sat in the back booth and talked for hours until the restaurant closed. Like a gentleman, he walked me out to my car and asked for a kiss and like a lady I said "no" with a smile. Though the story could have ended there, it did not. Two paths that are meant to cross, will indeed cross. Thus, Joe and I went on our second date :) Fast forward, (and yes Joe eventually got his kiss) we grew closer, met each others' rather large families and began our very untraditional journey in life together. Since two massive dogs wasn't enough, in 2022 we welcomed our incredibly smart and funny little girl, Alana. She is just so perfect we decided to have another and try to get a perfect little boy. In 2024, to mommy's surprise, we had another beautiful baby girl, Gemma. Our little, but not so little, family continued to grow. In 2025, we decided it was finally time to celebrate our love with all of you. We want to keep our special day small and intimate, but given a large Italian family, "small" is all but a word. So we will at least keep it intimate and full of love. "Happiness can be found even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light."- Deadpool

How it All Began

Our Story

Photos

Cousin of bride and honorary sister. The person who Haile refused to go to the hospital without…. Odd request you may think but while some kids had a comfort blanket or stuffed animal, Haile had a whole person! Tori is also the godmother to Gemma. 

Tori Mover

Taylor is Haile’s older sister. Though these 2 are polar opposites....literally...ones short, ones tall, ones blonde, ones brunette. They some how manage to always have one another's back. Taylor may try to sway you otherwise, and say Haile attempted to flush her teddy down the toilet, smh pure evil, but don't believe her....she has yet to provide any witnesses.

Taylor Verville

College roommate of bride. Partner in crime, London mate, and fiery ginger wrapped up into one pocket size explosion. This Wii Just Dance queen will knock your socks off in the best possible way. Elbows will fly and legs will kick, stand clear on the dance floor or you’ll get dropped.

Kayla Simpson

Erik and Joe's bromance was not always so lovey dovey. You may be surprised to know that these 2 little competitive humans got in a fist fight on the basketball court, only to later find out that they have a bunch in common.....they both hit like girls (no offense ladies). Well these tiny tots eventually grew into men, learned how to fight. And instead of fighting one another they fight for each other. Erik is also the fairy god father of Alana.  

Erik Everton

Matty and Joe are childhood friends. He too is part of the North Attleboro Crew. For those of you who do not know the North Attleboro Crew, it is essentially a cult consisting of a bunch of cultist. The other members are also in the wedding party....shocker. Anyhow, back to Matty. This guy is a mead making machine, and if you haven't tried mead yet, keep it that way. Matty is also the godfather of Gemma. He has already fallen victim to her napping trap. Poor guy sat on a barstool for over an hour holding her, verdict is out if she was actually sleeping or if it was just a test. Well played Gemma, well played.

Matthew Connolly

Yes you guessed it...cultist. Despite his North Attleboro ties, he is a good guy. The funny thing is Colby doesn't even know he's a groomsman yet. SURPRISE! Colby, will you be Joe's groomsman? Of course you will, part of the cult rules! If anyone finds a credit card, license, cell phone, belt, shoes, hat, pants...take a good look at the photo above and return the items back to Colby. He greatly appreciates your cooperation. 

Colby Johnson

Rob, also known as Stew, is another member of the North Attleboro clan. Why Stew you say? I don't know...moving on. Rob has known Joe a very long time and during that time he's probably ripped off his shirt a 468 times, but whose counting. Rob also has 2 young children , Teddy and Harry who have become good friends with Alana and Gemma. Do I suspect the beginning of a new cult? Why yes, yes I do. 

Rob Henriksen 

Bob, Bobby, Bobbert...as another North Attleboro cult member he goes by many names. Suspiciously he also moves around alot....odd yes, but came in handy when he had to chase Joe from Madison Square Garden all the way to Brooklyn! Despite being quick on his feet, he never fails to get captured on the jumbo-tron at every Bruins game he's been to. Coincidence or pre-arranged? Ehhh, I say never trust a man who is always wearing a hat....definitely hiding something. 

Bobby Richman 

Eldest child of bride and groom. She’s smart and spunky and can throw a mean fast ball. But watch out, any unattended sweets may go missing when she’s around. Alana is a daddy’s girl and great big sister. When she hits the dance floor be prepared for a delightful mix of a robotic ballerina.

Alana DeGirolamo 

Youngest daughter to bride and groom. This little flower girl in training will have you smiling within moments of receiving her death stare. Her plump cheeks and big personality may look squeezable, but do not touch! She reels you in with cuteness overload, only to take a nap on your lap for the next hour. Maximum effort.

Travel

Want a bite to eat on the water, this place has a huge outdoor deck and dock to pull up on your boat. Great food, but the view is best.

The Cove Restaurant & Marina

Looks like a shack on the side of the road, but this RI destination stop is a local favorite. Fresh seafood and outdoor seating on the water. Get the clam cakes!

Evelyn's Drive-In

Quick bite up the street from wedding, delicious food, good drinks, slightly divey, ask for Emily (great bartender) and will be at the wedding haha. Used to be a biker bar but transitioned into a town favorite.

Localz Burger & Cocktails

Talk about an experience. This floating bar/restaurant is essentially a dock that serves food and drinks. Whether you drive up by boat or car, this place is always fun. AMAZING mudd slides!!! Just note, the dock does rock, so if you are feeling tipsy bring a buddy or you might go overboard!

Tipsy Seagull Dockside Pub (seasonal)

Another divey fave, this place has amazing fish tacos with mango salsa! They are right up the street from the wedding, has a tiki bar, dells lemonade, and fresh seafood....can't go wrong.

Macray's Seafood
