Our Wedding

When looking back through our time of life, we realized more and more how many people we shared in common. From family member friendships, to friends themselves there was never a moment we found it crazy we never crossed paths. Christopher and I met finally after years of never finding the right one. It was November 2015 when we crossed paths for our second time but this time we paid attention to each other and couldn't pass up a moment chatting and hanging out. Chris offered to play a game of darts with me when he overheard me begging my friends. I beat him of course and then he asked for a rematch. The first games winning was him buying me my slice of pizza and the second game he won but he just couldn't think of a good enough prize. After an hour or more of going back and forth we split ways which just seemed strange. I was told to reach out to him and when he decided to as well we meshed. It's been history ever since. Without our friend Leanne we never would have met and our story would have never blossomed into the greatness that it is.

Our Story

The Ceremony

Moments captured

We don't want an unplugged ceremony for our guests because we do want your candids, but we do ask a few things. We have hired a great photographer to capture our special day so what we do ask is for there to be no phones sticking out in the aisle so our photographer may truly capture our special moments. Another thing; though your calls and texts may be important we do ask that you silence your phones so we can enjoy our beautiful ceremony becoming husband and wife. Thank you!

The Reception

Drink and be merry

We encourage our guests to have a ball, drink and be merry. There will be two hours of open bar.Though it may not seem long enough for some of our guests we do this in hopes that no one leaves overly intoxicated and drives home safe; though Holley is not super far it's still far enough. Even if you choose to stay in one of the blocked accommodation 15 minutes away we encourage you all to stay safe because we love you all!! There will still be the option of cash bar the rest of our reception time and you may tip at your own discretion.

Oh....Where to begin...He's been in my life for 19 years. We have had our fair share of brotherly fights but even more moments where we have been inseparable. I couldn't imagine standing up at the alter without him by my side because he has been there for all of the amazing moments just as I have been there for his. He's never let anything get in his way (especially toes, he loves to run them over). On a serious note; he has been the manager of his high school hockey team, graduated and inducted into the Greece Youth Hall of Fame, and is a Freshman at MCC doing the 2+2 Program to go into a career in broadcasting. Thank you for always being there for me brother!

Shannon has been a best friend since the earliest of times. She has carried on through many hard times. Through Chris and I's relationship Shannon has been our sidekick, our third wheel and best of friends. There was no doubt in our mind that she couldn't play a better part in our wedding then Maid of Honor she means so much to us both and never ceases to surprise us with her support and encouragement

Shannon Pronti

Kara has been a lifelong friend and the ultimate sidekick doing almost every little thing together. When Kara and I were growing up we always talked of the days that would eventually come when we would marry our Prince charming. Kara in the midst of planning her own wedding but knowing how much I've always planned for her to stand by my side as a maid of honor was willing to accept Matron of Honor as she will officially be married one month prior to us!

Kara Pettifer

Michael and I met our Freshman year of college. We met one night playing volleyball behind our Freshman dorm. From there we have been best friends ever since. One of the guys I could go to when life got rough and always the first one to find out when life was going great. We don't see each other often but we can always count on one other for support. On our trip to NYC it was so much fun having him meet Rachel and them hitting it off. I couldn't think of anyone else as my brothers Co-Best Man. With Mike standing by my side nothing can go wrong. 

Michael Lebron

I have known Court since elementary school we grew closer and closer over the years as we grew up. There was never distance or time that could force a wedge between our friendship and I couldn't be more grateful of that. It was simple to know that she was someone I could count on as my special day approached. After all she's always been the one to help my crazy side come out!

Courtney Richardson

We met years ago playing hockey but it wasn't until about two years ago when I started looking for a motorcycle that we became good friends. When he met Rachel he could tell how happy I was with her. He's an awesome man and a great friend. One who I would be happy to have as my Groomsman.

Andrew Mikiciuk

Leanne is the reason behind Chris and I's story. I met Lee when I went to Roberts we became so close then had out time apart. When we came back together it was as things had never changed. It was the night of her birthday when she invited both Chris and I out as well as other friends. The night where we met and our story began. We always had many people that could have brought us to this moment but Leanne was the one to bring us together once in previous years at a church youth group and for a second time and last time that she would need to for her birthday. So there was no doubt in knowing she had to share this special day with us.

Leanne Gefell

After meeting Alex in our Freshman year of college we have been friends ever since. Roommates for a semester. My go to man for music major jokes and always a fun time nerding out till midnight. From him watching anime to playing me in Yugioh online (yes we played Yugioh in college!) to playing pingpong when we came back from parties or class. He has helped me get through some of the toughest times and shared some of the most fun times from college that I can remember. He's been a brother to me since year 1 and even through ups and downs, we have been there for each other.

Alex Long

One of the men who have played a role in the life of my fiancee for as long as he's been alive. When he's not quoting movies or nerding out on comics, he's an awesome brother to Rachel and one who has been a lot of fun to get to know over the past 10 months. I look forward to having him as a brother-in-law. 

Robert Quetschenbach

Kristyn and I met back near the end of High school. We grew closer through the years and have seen some dark times together. Always there to pick each other u make each other laugh and just make the best of memories. When thinking through who has to be included Kristyn was an obvious choice she has been nothing but supportive encouraging and a great time during Christopher and I's relationship.

Kristyn Coccitti

Another one of the men who have played a role in the life of my fiancee for years and given us our amazing little flower girl. When he's not quoting movies with Robert or giving Greg a run for his money, he's an awesome brother to Rachel. Web is an amazing father to Olivia and an amazing husband to Ashleigh. I look forward to having him as a brother-in-law. 

Webster Luce

He's truly more of a best friend than a cousin. Over the years we have grown closer and he has learned a lot from me. Landon is a 6th Grader who's been at the top of his class and always been a friend to many. He is an amazing friend to everyone that he comes into contact with and loves his video games. More than anything he loves his family like there's no tomorrow. A quality that he has gotten from his amazing mother and over the time we have talked about Landon, she always talked of how proud she is of him. I know that I could not stand up there without him.

Landon Baglin

Olivia is just the most precious little girl that we love so much every moment we get to spend with her is a blessing and a joy. When we had to ask her mommy and daddy they knew it was coming and they said yes right away. As my niece she is no doubt the best fit for this role on my special day and I'm so excited for her to share it with us!

Olivia Paige Luce

Amanda is a dear cousin of mine. We have always grown up together spending plenty of time together but as we grew older and cell phones became a thing :) our relationship grew. We were able to be there for each other in better and in worse. She's been my best friend and my cousin and I couldn't ask for anything better in a relative then what she gives me. So there's no way we couldn't share these moments as well.

Amanda Schepler

Rylan is Rachels god son who she loves so dearly and even though there is few times of the year they get to connect and share bonding moments there was no doubt she wanted to have him share our special day.
