To Celebrate with us

Maks Newman

The groom

Hi there! My name is Maks. I’ve been living in New York for six years now and I can’t seem to get enough of this great city. I work in sales during the week and try to take advantage of the outdoors on the weekends. I love tacos, bike rides, and most of all, Sam!

Samuel Baster

The groom

Hello! It’s Sam. I absolutely love exploring New York and finding niche cafes in my free time, as well as walking our pug, Charles, in Central Park. I’m addicted to coffee and avocados. I can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with Maks!

About Us

If we had to tell you one thing about us, it would be that we are so thankful. We are so happy to have met one another in the vast city of New York. Together we bring out each other’s best and inspire one another to grow creatively and intellectually. We look forward to sharing our special day with you! We cannot wait to create a lifetime of memories together, especially with you – our family and friends!

Wedding Menu

The decision to include a “Taco Bar” stems from Maks’s love for tacos! It seemed like a great addition for our younger cousins, nieces, and nephews to enjoy. We will also offer a traditional dinner with soup, salad, steamed vegetables, meat options, and, of course, cake for our guests.

Thanks for being there

Witnesses

Jack Greenwalt

Jack is the brother I never had. We were neighbors growing up and went to school together. We still find time to catch a football game on the weekends, even after the move to New York. Though it's now stuck in his head that he is "the best", he is my Best Man.

Witnesses

Martin Osterhaus

Ol' Marty and I were roomies in college. We were known around the block for our infamous "Game Day Nachos". I know college wouldn't have been the same without him and life isn't either. He actually introduced me to Sam our junior year of college! Thank you for that Marty!

Witnesses

Andrew Wyerly

Drew and I go way back. We played club basketball together in high school. He's always been there for a solid joke or to cause some trouble with. Thanks for all the good memories and the good times to come.

Witnesses

Thom Houghton

Thom Thom, the Other Tom. We're those people that our mutual friends tend to mistake us for each other. And it's not just because we’re both named Tom. Thom and I are basically the same person in our humor, values, and beliefs. To top it off we both have dark hair and I think that's what really throws people off. He’s always been there for me, and I'm glad he's here again for me at our wedding.

Witnesses

Robert Clark

Robert is the brother I never had. We were neighbors growing up and went to school together. We still find time to catch a football game on the weekends, even after the move to New York. Though it's now stuck in his head that he is "the best", he is my Best Man.

Witnesses

Bob White

Ol' Bob and I were roomies in college. We were known around the block for our infamous "Game Day Nachos". I know college wouldn't have been the same without him and life isn't either. He actually introduced me to Maks our junior year of college! Thank you for that Bob!

Witnesses

Alesandro Pjero

Ales and I go way back. We played club basketball together in high school. He's always been there for a solid joke or to cause some trouble with. Thanks for all the good memories and the good times to come.

Witnesses

David Waits

Dave Dave, the Other Dave. We're those people that our mutual friends tend to mistake us for each other. And it's not just because we’re both named Dave. David and I are basically the same person in our humor, values, and beliefs. To top it off we both have dark hair and I think that's what really throws people off. He’s always been there for me, and I'm glad he's here again for me at our wedding.
