Best Man: Stephen Conjerti - Stephen is the groom's brother, best friend, and hero. No homo. The two are as close as the twins from G.I. Joe, if one get hit the other feels the pain. Only two years apart, Steve kept Frank under his wing throughout his life. Whether it was telling Frank he looked like a nerd in his Varsity jacket, or berating him for ordering Pepper Jack cheese on his sub, Steve was tough, but his lessons were always necessary.
Maid of Honor: Allyson McMahon - Allyson is the bride's sister and best friend. They've been inseparable since Ally was born, though the two couldn't be more opposite. The two can finish each other's sentences and could quote movie lines all day long. Ally has been working at Chez Ann Salon since she was 14, since obtaining her cosmetology license and a business degree from NCCC. She is an AMAZING stylist, with a knack for coloring (not to mention her FABULOUS updos!) After years of watching Say Yes to the Dress and planning her own future fairy tale wedding, Ally has proved to be an exemplar maid of honor!
Katie's Attendants :
Brianne McMahon: Bree is Katie's cousin and one of her
closest friends. 1/4 of the inseparable foursome "The Cenes”, Bree can light up any room with her sense of humor. Bree attended Alfred University, Edinboro, and Buffalo State College. She currently works at Enterprise rent a car. "She'll pick you up!" (Just ask her!)
Sara Danheiser: Another 1/4 of "The Cene's” & Katie's best friend since they were little, Sara is the type of friend that will drop everything for someone in need. Sara attended NCCC and Buffalo State College where she received her degree in elementary education and is currently pursuing her master's in special education. She currently works as a teacher in the Kenton School District. Sara & Katie planned their lives together; from co- teaching jobs, to weddings, to having kids at the same time. (No pressure to her boyfriend Matt!)
Jennifer Adams: Jen is Frank's older sister and the glue that hold his siblings together. Jen teaches in the Lockport School District and has two children, Max & Lily. Jen gave Frank the honor of being Godfather to both Max & Lily. She is married to Frank's groomsman, Clyde Adams.
Andrea Conjerti: Andrea is Frank's younger sister. She attended Michigan State for undergrad and law school and is currently studying to take the New York State Bar Exam. Growing up Frank & Andrea would either be very close or at each other's throats...no in between. Andrea is a great athlete who would always push Frank's minimal skills..except in Ultimate Fighting which Frank would dominate. Some of the best times Frank had was going to visit Ann at MSU. Go Green, Go White!
Mandi Bialek: Katie's future sister in law, Mandi will be marrying her brother Matt in May. Planning their weddings together has made life so much easier (and more affordable!) Mandi has recently completed the paralegal degree program at Bryant & Stratton College and is a Certified Paralegal. She currently works as a paralegal with Fenster & Lewis, LLC.
Jamie Riddoch: Jamie & Katie played softball and swam together in middle school and high school, but headed in separate directions for college. After obtaining her teaching degree from Courtland, Jamie & Katie were reunited through the literacy specialist master's program at Buffalo State. Their strikingly similar OCD personalities and inability to sit still have made these two the best of friends. Jamie currently teaches at King Center Charter School in Buffalo.
Kelly Dubbs: Kelly grew up in Philadelphia and is currently a graduate assistant at James Madison University in Virginia. Kelly is Katie's cousin, and the two have been planning their weddings since they were young. Though they dont get to see each other often, Kelly comes to Buffalo every year for the fourth of July and they pick up right where they left off.
Frank's Attendants:
Jeff McCabe: Jeff has been Frank's good friend since middle school and has been there through it all to support Frank (mainly financially). Jeff is married to Kristen and has a boy and a girl (Molly & Luke). HE works for AXA Advisors as a financial planner.
Clyde Adams: Clyde is Frank's brother in law and is married to Frank's sister Jennifer. The two have grown very close since Clyde joined the family and spent time watching sports and drinking beers. Clyde is a male nurse at Lockport Memorial Hospital. He is the only Canadian allowed to attend the wedding and is unfortunately a Detroit Lions fan.
Scott Finn: Scott and Frank have been friends since high school, where Finn was the star quarterback and Frank was barely breaking the roster in cross country. They bonded over Burger King and Jeopardy, where Frank dominated Finn. Scott also coined the term "Bart Face", aka Frank's hangover face. Scott is a project manager at Arbour Construction Managment, Inc. and recently married his wife Janelle. They are expecting their first child in April!
Timothy Baker: Frank met Tim in elementary school and Frank once beat Tim in 1 on 1 while they roomed together at UB (for 4 out of the 5 1/2 Frank attended the school.) After college, Tim invited Frank to move into the North Buffalo apartment he shared with Josh Librera, and it was the best decision Frank ever made.
Ryan Kagels: Frank and Ryan met in High School, but grew closest on their trips to Las Vegas and especially Dover, Delaware where they had so much fun the night before the two fell asleep 40 feet away from a Nascar race. Ryan also dressed up as Frank for Halloween one year...his impression of the "Bart Face" was spot on. Ryan married his High School sweetheart Andrea and are expecting their second child!
Matthew McMahon: Matt is Katie's older brother and has since become one of Frank's closest friends. He obtained a bachelor's degree in business management from Buffalo State College. He currently works at Citi in some job that sounds made up.
Patrick McMahon: Pat is Katie's youngest sibling who currently attends Genesee Community College for lacrosse. A multi-faceted athlete, Pat led his high school football team to states 2 years in a row (where Frank proudly sported his jersey). He is currently working towards his teaching degree in Physical Education (though Katie has repeatedly warned him against it!)
