Maria and Jackie met while working at Rhode Island Hospital together. It didn’t take long for us to become close and then best friends. After a couple years, Jackie met Jeremy and they as well become best of friends - this made my heart so happy. Some of our favorite memories together (also including her husband, Jason) include going to NH or VT together for long weekends, deck days, enjoying Jason’s cooking and home made beer, laughing and continuing to make inside jokes, and hitting up the best local breweries together. When the 4 of us are together, the joking and laughing doesn’t stop. Our adventures are a good time no matter the place, weather, situation etc. (we can’t get enough of them and book them every opportunity we get!) Jackie is sensitive and loving – after all she does love love more than anyone we know! She has been there for the both of us and would do anything for anyone. We can’t wait to spend our soon-to-be favorite day with you!

Maria and Amy met while working at Rhode Island Hospital together. FUN FACT was that Maria was intimidated of Amy (probably because of Amy’s strong presence and confident attitude), but that didn’t last long and she’s one of my favorites! Coworkers became friends, friends became best friends a bit after. Amy is the voice of reason, the one that will TRULY tell you the truth (so don’t ask anything if you don’t want to hear it). Soon, Amy met Jeremy and they also became best of friends. After Jeremy got injured, he spent much of his days going out to several lunches a week with Maria and Amy where he witnessed (and was in total shock) of how much we love to enjoy long lunches with raw bar and champagne/rose together. Our special trip up north together, hot tub nights, at home dinners, camp nights (cutting wood), learning Beyoncé dances are just some of our special memories. We love Amy’s fun, down-for-anything personality and are excited to share our special day with you (and yours with us!)

Ashley is Jeremy’s sister! So you could say they’ve known each other for forever and she probably knows him better than anyone. It’s safe to say that she has been there for him through all of the times – the good and the bad. Although Ashley lives in beautiful San Diego, she always finds the time to make sure she calls and checks on Jeremy. Our relationship began to develop when I would chime in on phone calls and now can say I’m excited to get to know her even more. When I asked Jeremy to describe his sister, he said “crazy, independent, stubborn, smart, nice.” Definitely a typical brother response haha. From what I know of Ashley in a short time, she is super sweet, caring, would do anything for anyone including Jeremy and I. Her and Jeremy laugh for a good amount of the time they chat– something I truly love about them! We both love that she is loyal, sincere, super easy going and down for anything! Since we don’t see her much, we can’t wait to celebrate all the fun things the wedding will bring (bachelorette/bachelor, jack and jill, rehearsal and WEDDING DAY), and one of these days will make a nice trip out to Cali. We are so excited for the next year and so happy you are sharing the best day ever with us!

Cara! Probably one of the sweetest souls you’ll ever meet, hands down. Cara is Maria’s first cousin and someone who has been there through it all! Even when life has gotten crazy or we wouldn’t see each other as much, we always kept that relationship where we picked up where we last left off as if no time passed. Maria and Cara have a lot of younger memories – living next to each other, family parties, beach days, bonfire and camping nights. This developed in to our more recent years where we spend more time hanging in a backyard or around holidays, much more low key! Jeremy met Cara and he instantly agreed…she’s probably the most chill, down to earth person around (and her husband Ben is equally as cool). We love the vibe and energy she brings and can’t wait for her to bring that energy to our day!

AKA Honey! Heather and Maria met while working at Rhode Island Hospital (pretty much where we all became friends it seems! Ha!). They pretty much connected right away and the rest was history! She still is one of Maria’s best friends through all these crazy years (and now considered one of Jeremy’s now too). Memories started off with just Maria and Heather spending nights on Federal Hill together during Cinco De Mayo’s, St. Patricks Day’s, dinner nights…but after Jeremy and Heather became friends, we all made even more memories! Many Portland Maine trips, brewery meet ups, Friendsgiving, Friendsmas, birthdays, her and Austin’s Wedding, welcoming their newest addition, Charlotte. When we get together (especially when her husband, Austin is around) it’s safe to say we cannot stop laughing. Heather is sweet, super sociable and the go with the flow kind of person – can’t forget that she (and Amy too!) is good at keeping the rest of us crazies in line when it’s needed! Ha! We celebrated your day and can’t wait for you to celebrate ours with us!

Sunny and Maria met because of Jeremy! Jeremy and Sunny have been best friends since elementary school and have shared some wild, fun memories together. It’s safe to say that Sunny has been there for Jeremy since day one and will always be. Truly the definition of best friends for life – now mine too! It means that I get to have a super kind, outgoing, positive person in my life as well. We have had countless “Friday Night Fires” which included us hanging out at Sunny & Sean’s house (his other bestie) grilling and listening to music while the boys made shlitz’s (I think they created this word? For drinks?), and listening to DMX on repeat, MANY dinners at Margarita’s and other fantastic places, birthdays, super late nights just talking by a fire together and we can’t forget the VJ Day on the lake…absolutely unforgettable moments with one of the best people we know. Sunny is selfless, mentally and emotionally strong, relaxed and kind. We are beyond lucky to have known her for this long and can’t wait to share more memories on our special day!

Sean, better known as Flood, has been a best friend to Jeremy ever since he can remember. He’s the true definition of the kind of guy that would give you his shirt off his back and would do anything for his friends which has shown true time and time again. His loyalty and dedication to whatever he does makes him truly an amazing friend! If you need Sean you can either find him at home or on his boat!

Bern! Brendan and Jeremy have known each other for quite a long time, but it wasn’t until a few years ago they got super close, after all he’s Maria’s brother lol. Bren is super chill, laid back and go with the flow … pretty much any idea Jeremy comes up with Brendan will agree to (which can be a bit scary if you know them both pretty well lol). Bren works super hard and is an easy person to talk to about pretty much anything. Bonfires, riding, brunch, 2 brothers and house projects are just a few things we love doing with him. He’s both of our best friend and we couldn’t think of anyone better to add to our big day, especially with Brendan also feeling like Jeremy’s brother now too.

Sean L, aka Locke, another childhood friend who still remains one of Jeremy’s best friends. Being best friends since elementary school, the amount of memories shared are too many to name. However, they continue to enjoy listening to DMX together while dancing with a captain/coke in Sean’s hand a “cape coddahhh” in Jeremy’s hand, riding together, Friday night fires/cookouts, birthday outings and all the in between. Sean gets along with pretty much anyone, is genuine, fun, and when the two are together they’re pretty much laughing and talking about old memories the entire time. It’s never a dull moment with him!

Ben and Jeremy knew of each other in the past, but it wasn’t until they starting riding together that they became good friends. If you know Ben, you know he’s a genuine, compassionate kind of guy. He puts his all in to their friendship and it shows! One call away and Ben is driving from RI to CT in no time when he hears Jerry wants to head to the Gelston House for Brunch in East Haddam. Ben is a super supportive friend who would drop anything for anyone, especially Jeremy & I. Our dinner dates with him and Jordyn are some of the most laughs we have! We are super lucky to have someone like Ben sharing our day with us.

Stevie Coya Jr Jr Chowdah, we just love Stevie and he has also become close with Maria as well - FaceTimes and mid day phone calls has become a popular thing. Stevie is funny, one of the easiest to get along with and will have you in tears from laughing even though he doesn’t mean it. He’s easy to talk to, dependable and a faithful friend. If you see Stevie, you’re guaranteed to see Rem Dog too! If you ever need anything at any time, we know Stevie will be there instantly. There is never a dull moment with him.

Marc, the guy that most people know as Jeremy’s twin! (They’re not related but be often joke that they’re long lost brothers). Marc and Jeremy met many years ago and are so similar it’s wild. Their love for working on cars/trucks, heading up north to relax and enjoying the little things in life keep them connected. Life took a bit of a turn but once they rekindled their friendship it was like there was never a beat missed. It’s easy being Marc’s friend - he’s loyal, keeps you laughing and will make you a priority. The decision to add Marc to our wedding was a no brainer and we can’t wait to keep doing all the fun things with him.

We were thinking about who would be the perfect person to marry us, and without a doubt Michael came to mind. We met Michael through Amy, his fiancé and our bestie, and since then considered him one of our best friends too. Michael is sweet, charismatic, well spoken, and loves love just as much as we do! One thing that was important to us was someone who knew us and could speak about us super personally and he is pretty perfect for that. Over the past couple of years we have shared some funny and heart felt moments with Michael and believe he truly will have a beautiful ceremony for us. We always joke that Michael & Jeremy are pretty different people but them being friends just works. We couldn’t be happier to share our day with him and look forward to us sharing his day too!
