Weddings Celebrated

In the past three years, five Old Boys have celebrated marriages. They are Kyle Smith ('12), Stephen Dunne ('12), Peter Hayden ('12), Luis Vera ('13), and David Heffernan ('13), see below.

We are looking forward to weddings this summer of Chris Gosselin ('12), Luke Pelletier ('13), Rafael Bello ('14), and Alec Furnace ('14).

The beautiful wedding of David Heffernan (’13) to Sara Vanderwiele in November felt like a Western Academy event! David’s groomsmen included Stephan Nino (‘12), Gabriel Joseph (‘13), Luke Pelletier ('13) and Felipe Vilalta ('13), all donning kilts for the service. Ushers for the ceremony included rugby players Elijah Uyenco ('20), Gabriel Espinosa ('21), Bennett Groover ('21) and Charlie Mohr ('21). Michael Ullrich ('16) was an alter server at the wedding, and Agustin Arguelles added a Highland flavor playing bagpipes as the couple exited St. Joseph's Church as husband and wife. 

Of course, our very own School Registrar, Mrs. Nadine Heffernan, is the groom's mother! 

Many Western faculty, staff families, and other Old Boys attended the wedding and toasted the newlyweds at their reception.
