One thing that excites Angelo and I so much about our wedding is the opportunity for our collective communities to genuinely get to know each other. It is our hope that after two days of celebrating together we will all be so much more bonded and blended than before.

Since you all are about to meet your new French side besties, we thought it would be good to start by putting some names and faces together before the trip. Our goal is to periodically send introductions through e-mail, eventually sharing the entire Chateau de La Valouse crew before we are all together (Wish us luck!). Let’s begin by introducing the Wedding Party first!

Meet the Bondola’s

Get it? Bond’s + Spinola’s? This is our beautiful blended bunch! Let me introduce to you, from Left to Right: Avia 19, Sophomore at UNG studying film, except to see her around the chateau with a camera strapped around her neck. Isla 11, our in-house artist who you will always find singing. Asher, 11, leader of the pack, full of life and spunk, and the best with directions out of the lot of us. Hudson 18, Junior at Fusion High School. Currently loving his car while putting his plans together to attend Flagler in the Fall. Angelo and Jodi, you know us so I’ll skip our ages for now;). Rhodes, 13, you’ll usually find him creating a video edit, destroying the ender dragon in Minecraft, or shredding a Metallica guitar lick.. Ryder 13, current Monopoly king of the house, and is perfecting his wheelie on his new motor bike. Judah, 17, Junior at North Gwinnett High School, and proficient guitarist. Currently taking song requests for the wedding, so make sure to get yours in. Lincoln, 17, Sophomore at Pace academy and excellent lacrosse player. If you can’t find him, look no further than the gym. He’ll be there working those reps.
