Anthony & Shannon

Sister and best friend- truly one in a million. Always going above and beyond for Shannon and Anthony, she will be standing proudly as Maid of Honour.

Best man and brother to Anthony, Gareth has been an amazing role model and inspiration to him growing up. He is travelling from Australia with his family to be here - we cannot wait to see him proud as Anthony marries Shannon.

A true best friend who has supported Shannon through so many chapters of her life. From roommate to being a life long best friend, she will stand by her side as a cherished Bridesmaid.

The friend that came a little later in life but felt like she was there for every pivotal moment. The day wouldn't be the same without her by Shannon's side. Her bridesmaid and best friend.

AKA Stan, since year 7, Alistair and Anthony have bonded closely through their many years of friendship and love for gaming. Anthony enjoys his thought-provoking conversations with Stan, in person or over the microphone - whether it's challenging discourse or challenging him.

If there is one man you can count on to back you up, its Joe - whether it's your ceiling falling down, a hug to get you through or a pint to be sunk, Joe will be there - for Shannon and Anthony. The good times, the bad times and the wild times - Joe is consistently enthusiastic, supportive and the life and soul of the party.

Niall and Anthony met on the subs bench at school; safe to say they are both terrible at football, but masters in friendship. Anthony thanks Niall for being his anchor of rationality and, not least of all, for passing on his phone number to Shannon!

Having Shannon's brother by her side as a groomsman means the world to her. He’s been my lifelong teammate, biggest supporter, and best friend. From childhood memories to this incredible milestone, she couldn’t imagine this day without him standing beside her.

Mother of the Bride: A truly one in a million person in both Shannon and Anthony’s lives, she has a gift for making the impossible possible. Nothing is ever beyond her reach for us.

Anthony's wonderful mother taught him the importance of independence, to always be kind and to know, with certainty, the feeling of unconditional love.

Father of the Bride: A father who has always had our best interests at heart. With his love, wisdom, and steady guidance, he has helped build a foundation for a future. He has always given his support and belief.

Despite being faced with the childhood terror - AKA Anthony - Roland has stayed the course, and became an outstanding father and an all round top bloke.

Cassian Newall, our wonderful page boy, brightens our lives every day. His cheeky smile, joyful spirit and hilarious antics, fills our hearts with laughter and love.

Silver Shannon Newall, our beautiful flower girl, brings an extra sprinkle of magic to our special day. Her sweet and confident presence adds the most precious touch to our wedding celebration.

Nan of the bride: a woman who taught Shannon style and class. Traditional, with strong standards and values. Anthony met the seal of approval.

Grandad of the Bride: Joe is one of a kind. His generous heart has helped shape our future, and he is always ready with wise advice. With his stories and music, he brings the warmth.
