Anastasia is the first, eldest and most athletic child of Donna and Raymond Gaszynski. She once boasted a 150lb bench press as a sophomore in high school and was the MVP of her college rugby team. Stefan never had to worry about anyone beating up his sister, only his sister beating up him. She is the wife to Michael Barrett and mother to August Barrett. She is a former award winning cheese maker and a graduate of the now defunct Green Mountain College in Poultney, Vermont.

The @Jan_imal has known Stefan his entire life, the two have been like brothers. Jan is an Iron Man, Colts Neck High Schools most improved swimmer(2007) and a former poetry contest winner. Although Kate Festa broke his heart in 10th grade, Jan is starting to come around and looking for a women to call his own.

Kimmie is Karly's little, big sister who serves as the Matron of Honor. She has known Karly since she was born. Kim spends her time hanging out with her husband Jeff (also known as Ralph depending on who you ask), taking care of her fur babies, and whipping up some of the finest Mojitos north of Kentucky. Kim is a Yogi who bends both her body, and the rules; for example she has not yet referred to her favorite football team as the Washington Commanders once.

A former high school football starter, Drew has been one of Stefan’s best friends since they started high school football together, initially attempting to knock each other out in the practice field. Drew has failed at a lot in his life but he has found a small sliver of success in the field of civil engineering. When he isn’t busy supervising people pouring concrete he can be found in his room, alone, watching the Green Bay Packers and complaining about the neighbor's kids running through his lawn.

Dr. Bauers (or Dr. Mitchell, we still aren't sure if she changed her name yet) is a former high school basketball, field hockey, and softball starter who also played field hockey in college. To my understanding, she was also a starter in college. She couldn't be stopped (#GoGeese). She is the proud mother of a Millie as well as two Newfoundland dogs totaling 380 lbs. While Jordan is one of Karly’s best friends, it was Stefan who she asked to prepare an original poem to be recited at her wedding. She didn’t ask for it to be original, but it was.

A fellow former Division three football player, Kevin is the only one of three boys in his family who did not play division one football. He is not the only one of the three boys to lose his hair though. Kevin works in law enforcement and once put his entire uniform on just to go get a free sandwich at Chick Fil A. Kevin was Stefan’s roommate for five years throughout college and grad school and never once vacuumed. Kevin is the proud father of Weston and the proud husband of Melissa. He remains the only player to commit a sack in his own quarterback and receive a check marking satisfactory effort on the play by his coach. During their Sophomore year of college Karly knowingly gave Kevin the wrong phone number when asked for it.

Kelsey Lessard Esq. is a first generation female attorney. She knew she would be great for the job because she loves to dig up the past. She told me she was a barred Delaware lawyer which I think means she can still practice in the other 49 states. She was a state champion swimmer and a collegiate swimmer of the year whose accolades in the pool were trumped only by her ability to argue the merits of a gluten free lifestyle. Kelsey is a lifelong fan of Fox news.

Michael Paul Wagner the fourth is the heir to the Wagners Marina and yacht club. He has been Stefan’s best friend for the unfortunate amount of 15+ years. He is a heavy equipment operator, former D1 walk-on. Mike once told Stefan “the only reason you are starting is because we don’t have anyone else better”. Mike currently gets most of his talking points from MSNBC.

This former Division 1 lacrosse player has been one of the bride's best friends since 2006. Gina fills most of her time caring for patients working as a registered nurse after years of working as a non-registered nurse. Gina is a cancer who makes a mean carrot pasta and can balance on her head, not at the same time though. Her family may also own/run a small chicken operation. Yes, she is the heir to Purdue Chicken. Ask her about it - it's her favorite thing to talk about!

Elden is a former neighbor and contemporary of Stefan’s. Elden is a certified CPA who resides in Arizona with his fiancé KC and their dog. Elden played lacrosse at Kean University after learning all there is to know about the game from Stefan. Athletic ability had very little to do with it. Elden is a talented photographer who wishes Stefan would stop sending him so many shirtless pictures.

Olivia is Karly's sister-in-law and is married to Chooch. She is the proud mother of Stella, and another little one of the way. Stefan has also been Olivia's Secret Santa for the past three years and has provided underwhelming presents since. Hopefully this year will be different (I'll have Karly help me this year). Chooch's fun fact about Olivia is that she happened to break the vacuum and the washing machine without ever touching them. It's a heated debate.

Chooch is a former division three football fullback and he is also Karly's brother. Chooch is a proud father of soon-to-be two kiddos. He is also the owner of multiple restaurants that Stefan is no longer welcome at. Chooch is an avid golfer and took third in the Waterbury open back in '94. He eats pieces of shit like you for breakfast.

Kathy is an aspiring airline pilot and former division three basketball player. She played basketball with Karly at Salisbury (#GoGulls) and they roomed together for 3 years. She has an affinity for grape bombs, bad decisions, and stealing Karly's clothes (apparently this is her jacket in this picture). She is also the funniest bridesmaid - sorry to everyone else.

Connor is a fellow former division three football player and also attended Salisbury University and Colts Neck High School with Stefan. While he is technically older than Stefan, he was a year behind in school due to being held back early in his academic career. Yikes. Connor is a sheriffs deputy who resides in West Virginia, who is not married to his cousin. Connors wife Tessa, is much better looking than him.

Mrs. Kempel is a former two sport collegiate athlete, National Champion, and high school starter. (All of Karly's friends are athletes if you couldn't tell by now). Jess also went to Salisbury University with the Karly and Stefan (#GoGulls), She is the mother of two and does not normally have the time to party like she used to, but that all changes on June 1, 2024. Stefan specifically requested "I don't want mother of two Jessica attending the wedding, I want 2014 JCREW". Good times.

Abby and Karly have been best friends since 2006. Karly and Abby went to middle school, high school, and worked together as Admission Counselors at Washington College after graduating from college (#GoGeese). This five foot creamsicle is fresh off popping out the first of ten eventual kids. Although today, she is back to 2014 Abby. This firecracker is a cancer and a former collegiate lacrosse player. She played at La Salle University and also was a varsity starter in high school. At a whopping 5 foot nothing, Abby apparently she holds the record for the most blocks in one season for women's basketball at Queen Anne's County High School. Impressive.

Bre has been one of Karly's best friends ever since she took Karlys starting job on the Varsity lacrosse team at Queen Anne's County High School (Go Lions). After high school, Bre went on to become a division one lacrosse player at Towson University (Go Tigers). You might not know this, but Bre has many party tricks. These days you can find her performing splits at various dance floors across the country; weddings, office Christmas parties, Quinceaneras. No event is safe, including our wedding.

Dallas, from New Jersey-is the wife of groomsman Mike Wagner, although she would be reluctant to tell you about it. Stefan happened to be her best man and provided a speech that she was not a fan of. She spends most of her time cutting hair at her studio and buying various Ray Dunn house decorations.

“Pops” is a former high school football starter who is by far the best Center of all of the groomsmen. He once fell off a 5 story building on a Thursday and made it out of the hospital in time for 1/2 price pizza and wings on Monday. While he was not a great hockey player, he is a somewhat successful construction supervisor.
