August Wedding at Camp Hero
Lisa Madeleine Lawler and Peter Armon of East Hampton were married on Aug. 18 at Camp Hero State Park in Montauk. The groom’s friend Michael Koestner of Syosset officiated. A reception followed at Montauk Downs.
The bride is the daughter of Madeline and Richard Lawler of East Hampton. The groom’s parents are Margaret and Richard Armon of Great Neck.
“After admiring one another from afar for over a year around East Hampton, the couple finally met on the sidewalk outside the East Hampton Barber shop in October 2013,” the bride wrote. Their first date was at the Dockside in Sag Harbor, and they were engaged three years ago at Camp Hero.
The bride is a special education teacher at the East Hampton Middle School. She graduated from East Hampton High School and went on to earn a bachelor’s degree in psychology from Mary Washington College in Fredericksburg, Va., and a master’s degree in special education and childhood education from the City University of New York’s Hunter College.
The groom graduated from Locust Valley High School and works in sales at Amagansett Lumber.
The maid of honor was Alexia Faraguna of Charlotte, N.C. The bride’s sister-in-law, Anna Lawler of Connecticut, and the groom’s sister, Denise Merrick of Poughkeepsie, were bridesmaids. The groom’s daughter, Olivia Armon, was a junior bridesmaid, and the bride’s niece, Reagan Lawler, was the flower girl.
Mr. Armon’s best man was Brian Stone of Coram. His groomsmen were his brother, James Armon of Bayville, the bride’s brother, Adam Lawler of Connecticut, and James Tucholski of Philadelphia.
The bride wore a fit-and-flare Stella York gown, while the groom was in a navy blue Joseph Abboud tuxedo. The bridesmaids wore long navy blue gowns, and the groomsmen wore khaki tuxedos.
After a brunch at the bride’s parents’ house the day after the wedding, the couple left for a honeymoon on the West Coast that included a visit to a wolf and wildlife sanctuary in Seattle and a road trip through Portland, Ore., with time in the California redwood forest, Sonoma County, and finally San Francisco.
