Our Wedding

Like many modern love stories, ours began online—but it didn’t take long for things to feel anything but ordinary. Our first date was at Monks Belgian Cafe in Philadelphia where the Mussels and frites were just as delectable as the company across the table. Our conversation quickly went from nervousness and intrigue to talking about career experiences that we each admired about one-another and the huge importance we have of spending time with our families. The deep conversations and laughter came easy, and the connection felt real. On the train ride back across the bridge to New Jersey that night, Bobby saw actual fireworks in the night sky….and not just the metaphorical kind. He couldn’t wait to text Kathy about it, who (truth be told) had been eagerly waiting for that “after the first date message” to say that he wanted to see her again. Kathy knew early on that Bobby was the one. For Bobby, the moment came after a late-night puzzle session at her apartment when Kathy (without hesitation) ordered a buffet of appetizers at 11:30 at night to be delivered since they were both getting hungry again. Her love of spoiling her guests, her contagious smile, and her spontaneity to seize every moment of each day sealed the deal. Since then, we’ve cherished the little trips to the grocery store together just as much as vacation trips, and major life milestones. With every moment, our lives have woven together more beautifully than we could’ve imagined. We consider ourselves so lucky to have found each-other!

Our Story

There truly aren’t enough words to describe how lucky Kathy feels to have Jen in her life. Not only are they sisters, but they’re also best friends. Rarely does a day go by without them talking.

Jen was probably the first person Kathy told about Bobby—and definitely one of the most important people for Bobby to meet. After all, he’s not just marrying Kathy… he’s getting Jen, too! 

Over the years, they’ve shared countless adventures—pool days, goat races, murder mystery dinners, and one particularly memorable (and very different) experience at an Alice in Wonderland event. The list of memories is endless, and filled with spontaneous fun and hilarious events.

Jen is someone Kathy truly couldn’t imagine life without, and she feels incredibly lucky to be so close to her. Having Jen stand by her side on this special day is just one more amazing adventure they get to share—and we couldn’t be more excited for it.

Jamie is Kathy’s best friend — the one she can always count on for binge-watching You, unforgettable concerts, spontaneous getaways, and constant, unwavering support. From quiet nights in their old apartments to wild adventures, they’ve truly experienced it all together.

They first met working at a bar in Philly, and not long after, Kathy moved into an open room in Jamie’s apartment — unknowingly stepping into one of the most important friendships of her life. Later, Kathy moved to New York with Jamie and Stef (the officiant), and the two quickly became family to her. Together, they supported one another through all of life’s big and small moments.

Jamie is the kind of friend who shows up — always ready to lend a hand, offer heartfelt advice, or say “yes” to a last-minute trip. 

Jamie has been part of every chapter of Kathy’s life, and we’re so lucky to have her by our side for this one. Her love, loyalty, and friendship mean the world — and we couldn’t imagine this day without her.

We couldn’t be more honored to have Stef officiate our wedding.

Stef has been Kathy’s best friend for nearly 20 years and has been a constant source of love, laughter, and support. She has stood by Kathy’s side through a lot of chapters of her life, even pushing her to graduate from college by not allowing her to go out with her until she finished her homework!

When we got engaged, Stef wrote in her card how excited she was that Bobby made it official so we could all grow old together. Now, we’re beyond thrilled that she’s the one making it official for us.

Stef, we love you so much and are so grateful that you’re such a special part of this day and our lives.

Stef Halpern

Katie is one of Kathy’s closest friends and has been a constant source of laughter, support, and late-night heart-to-hearts. When Kathy and Bobby first met, little did they know that Katie lived just a short walk away from him!

In New York, Katie was Kathy’s go-to happy hour partner, where countless conversations were shared over cocktails about work, family, and dating. At one point, Katie even claimed Kathy as her sister to help her get an early COVID vaccine so she could visit her mom. The only hiccup? They’re both actually named Kathleen. Thankfully, the woman administering the shot didn’t question the two “Kathleen sisters.”

Katie has been a steady, loving presence through all of life’s ups and downs, and she has always supported Kathy and Bobby’s relationship. We’re so excited and grateful to have her standing by our side on this special day.

Bobby’s sister Ally is an incredibly strong and grounding force that has helped Bobby stay centered, healthier, and more joyful over the years. Their long and deep conversations in the calm quiet mornings and along trails in the wilderness together have helped them both grow stronger as adults, become happier in their lives, and listen to their hearts more confidently.  Their connection as siblings has grown stronger through supportive conversations over the phone and traveling together to hike in the magnificent scenery of our nation’s most stunning parks. Bobby has always been so proud of his sister, her career choice, and how she prioritizes time for her self-care. Kathy is excited to have her as one of her bridesmaids and we can’t wait to see her arrive, spend time with her beaming smile, and have fun all together as a family on our wedding weekend.


Ally Hennessy

Mel has been one of Bobby’s biggest cheerleaders and supporters for 4 decades. She somehow finds the time to check in on him no matter how crazy and busy her schedule is managing her family, work, and life.  She has always helped Bobby by shining the light on the positives in life ahead and finding ways to celebrate no matter how short their visits are together.  Mel is always ready to make memories and make the most out of the time she has each day. Bobby has always been impressed with her ability to keep moving and how she gets it all done.  Kathy and Bobby are hoping that their wedding guests will be on the dance floor as much as Bobby’s family was at Mel’s wedding. Burn it down!

Carl and Bobby met in 1st grade playing basketball and tag with other neighborhood kids in the alley behind Bobby’s grandfather's house. Their friendship became even stronger as they got into their teen years and began playing CYO basketball together and became obsessed with Rollerblading. From skateparks to illegal trespassing on local college campuses Carl and Bobby were always searching and finding the best handrails, natural ramps, ledges, and gaps to hit. 

They remained very close friends even after Bobby left Catholic school to head to public school in 7th grade.  From merging their friend groups from both schools, consistently hanging out when they could, visiting one another in college, and all the way out on the West Coast. Carl has been a constant in Bobby’s life since the beginning. 

Bobby can’t thank Carl enough for their epic hikes, road trips, and the countless number of long philosophical talks over the phone across the country or during long walks in person. Carl’s genuine care for others, his curiosity, and passion for continuous self-improvement are values that Bobby continuously is impressed by and tries hard to emulate every day.

Danny Dietrich and Bobby have been friends since Junior High.  They were drawn to each other through their mutual interest in NASCAR.  Bobby was fascinated by Dan’s own drag race car that he competed and won with at NHRA junior national events around the country. Getting to be there with him and his family as they prepped and made garage changes to the race car in between heats when they were in high school was one of Bobby’s all-time favorite memories together.

They both had the same first car, had summer jobs detailing cars in high school, and both went to college to become engineers. What they didn’t have in common however was their favorite football team. This led to many Sundays while they lived in New Jersey watching Dan's eagles beat up on Bobby’s cowboys team.  Grilling and consuming large amounts of snacks watching the game at Danny’s apartment are such good memories.

Danny D’s excellence and mastery in his career, his dedication as a father, and his resiliency to make time to sit and appreciate the stars in the night sky in the midst of his busy life has always been admired by Bobby.

Dan Dietrich

Danny “Roach” became Bobby’s first friend when he got to public school. He was almost instantly a consistent figure at the Hennessy house as they navigated the coming of age years in junior high and high school.  If Bobby wasn’t at home he was at the Roach’s. Danny created unforgettable memories in those years such as introducing Bobby to different genres of music his sister had Cd’s of and blasting the latest rap music in his room. Going to Holden Beach with the Roach's, sneaking out at night for mischief, getting their first jobs together at the Car Wash thanks to his Mom, and of course trying to impress and meet girls.

Danny has always been confident, outgoing, unafraid of what other people think of him, and meets new people wherever he goes. Since the beginning of their friendship, he has been influential in modeling for Bobby how to become less tough on himself and how to stop worrying so much about what others think of him.  He is truly grateful for Danny always being there for him in his tough times and being a consistent and welcoming friend to get him to smile and loosen up when life gets overwhelming. He and his entire family have brought Bobby so many smiles, laughs, and great times being together and that is what life is all about.

Danny Roach

Daniel Angarita and Bobby met in their sophomore year of college at Purdue University.  They have some unforgettable moments together throwing the football around, meeting up in LA, Chicago, NYC, Dallas, and his home in Houston.

Daniel’s intelligence, proficiency, and professionalism shines through in every aspect of his life.  He has consistently been an amazing and dedicated friend for 20 years while never living in the same state as one another since leaving college.  Like a fine Swiss watch Daniel calls Bobby at least monthly, mostly at the airport while he’s traveling for work, to stay up to date with what is going on in one another’s lives.  Daniel is an amazing father, husband, son, and is selfless beyond measure in the midst of his busy responsibilities.



Daniel Angarita

Mike has been like the brother Bobby never had since officially marrying into the family in 2013.  Whether Bobby and Kathy are coming to visit Mike, Mel, and the boys down in Maryland or they are coming up to north Mike is always happy to see them and greets them with a huge smile. Mike has been welcomed into Bobby's friends circle since the beginning. Spending time with them when he is up visiting in Allentown by attending diner breakfasts, having poolside conversations with a beverage in his hand, and even making an appearance at "The Shed". His calm demeanor paired with his enthusiasm for college sports, good music, and his skills in the kitchen keeps Bobby always looking forward to traveling to spend time with Mike. He is honored to have Mike standing up there with him as a groomsman and as a family member on his wedding day.

Our nephews are truly some of the most important people in our lives. We feel so lucky to share such a special bond with each of them individually and even luckier that they get along so well when they get together.

Having them be part of our wedding means the world to us. We can’t wait to see them all dressed up and, most of all, to witness their legendary dance moves on the big day!
