Our Wedding

Kayla and Nick first knew each other from Melrose High school. Little did Nick know Kayla had an embarrassing crush on Nick, but claims it became a "joke" as years went on because they never actually spoke while at Melrose High together 2010-2012. Fast Forward to Thanksgiving eve 2019, at the local watering hole Grimsby's. Many people from our high school were there that night. It was great running in to old faces and catching up. After gaining some "courage" Kayla spotted Nick out of the crowd and marches over to tell him about her embarrassing secret from high school. Nick was flattered but could not continue the conversation as Kayla danced off in to the crowd. Nick became eager to follow up with Kayla but didn't want to seem desperate, so he did what any other man in his 20's would do.... Add her on Snapchat- worked like a charm! After multiple attempts to gain Kayla's attention, she finally began to reply! In April 2020, when the world shut down they decided to go on a hiking date with a bottle of wine at an old high school spot. They laughed and talked for hours. What they thought would be an hour or two date, ended up being a six hour date because the time just flew by when they were together. After that date, things started to get more and more serious. When restaurants finally opened, Nick and Kayla went to their first dinner date at Strega in the Boston Seaport. Outside of the restaurant is where Nick told Kayla that he was going to marry her someday. Fast forward to about two years later, in the same spot, Nick proposed. Starting with the line "Remember how I told you that I was going to marry you someday?" ~So smooth right~ Now, living together in the city they grew up in, they are planning their wedding and happily in love! Who knew stalking your high school crush actually works?! We cannot wait to celebrate with everyone on July 1st , 2023. Let's do this!

Our Story

Photos

Tori is Kayla’s older sister. The two have been there together through it all. You can find Tori and Kayla constantly making inside jokes together that no one else would understand or talking too fast back and forth to the point where it sounds like another language. Kayla would not have anyone else by her side in this very important day. GREAT success!

Tori Kidwell

Bri and Kayla met at Plymouth State University at freshmen orientation. After both exchanging weird and confused looks from across the gym, Bri and Kayla both realized they were going to be volleyball teammates! Since then, the two have been inseparable!

Brianna Wojtas

These two ladies met at Plymouth State as well! Freshmen year Kayla was having a party in her dorm and Maddy came through mutual friends. Fast forward to a year later, Maddy and Kayla were also teammates on the basketball team and became best friends. Taking Plymouth by storm from that moment on, Maddy and Kayla are now no longer allowed back on campus together. (Kidding….)

Madison Beatrice

Amanda and Kayla go WAY back. These two crossed paths many times growing up as kids. However, they started to become best friends in middle school. Through the most awkward stages of their lives, (Amanda’s self given bangs and Kayla’s side part) they made it out alive. Purple bear, swimming in my parents pool, and more, the memories and laughs are endless!

Amanda Commito

Shan Shan and Kayla also go WAY back to the young years of our lives. Basketball, the tree, visiting PSU, so many good times. Kayla loved visiting Shannon so much when Shan lived in Dorchester, Kayla actually decided to move in with her. The two of them lived it up as roommates! Roomies 4 life (with Shan Shan the fish, too).

Shannon Lahiff

Another Plymouth State forever best friend made! Hannah and Kayla met their freshman year during their volleyball retreat before school started. Kayla was drawn towards Hannah’s upbeat and positive energy. You can find these two dancing up a storm, singing until their voices are gone, or laughing too hard at an old cheesy movie they’ve watched 15 times together.

Hannah Hyatt

Audrey and Kayla are an inseparable duo found at any family holiday party. You can find these two giggling about almost anything, especially making fun of Nick. Kayla has always called her “Mini me!” She is a built in younger sister to Kayla.

Audrey McNamara

Alex was a senior at Melrose High when Kayla was a freshman. Kayla remembers Alex being one of the coolest and most fashionable upper class man. Now they are going to be sisters in law! Kayla can’t wait to have another older sister in her life!

Alex Kupchaunis

Brittaney and Kayla became best friends in middle school. They were on the same softball team coached by Kayla's dad! The two of them are trouble together and never can stop making jokes back and forth until it has gone too far. Kayla could not do this without her!

Brittaney Brannock

Adam and Nick met in high school during their junior year in English class. Instantly they started hanging out. The two have been best friends and done everything together ever since. He is Nick’s partner in crime and biggest supporter (besides Kayla of course).. lol.

Adam Szloch

These two met in the same class at Umass Lowell in 2013. Eric loved Nick’s personality but more so his intelligent mind to help get through the class. The two remained friends throughout college. Eric was Nick’s voice of reason when Kayla was playing hard to get. So, everyone thank Eric for making this day happen.

Eric Chajon

Barkley and Nick met through the Best Man, Adam. Barkley and Nick have spent many nights together out on the town. Some of their favorite spots are Coogans, The Black Rose, and Hong Kong, just to name a few. BUCS

Barkley Santo

Nick also met Ryan through his Best Man, Adam. Souto is always the life of the party. He has been an important part of Nick’s life. Nick always cherished Souto’s willingness to have a fun time, even if it involved guilting him into it.

Ryan Souto

The two of these guys met at Umass Lowell EMS. They were a dynamic due in college. People thought that they were even brothers at times.

Matt Devito

Phil and Nick were united through Kayla when they were going on a double date with one of her best friends from college (Brianna a bridesmaid!). Whether their golfing, fishing, or drinking together, the two always have a good time.
