Lori Agulian 2005 Weds Longtime Love

Class of 2005 alumna Lori Agulian married Mike Dedrick on September 14 at the Willowdale Estate in Topsfield, Mass., on the weekend of their eight-year anniversary.

Lori noted that it was a beautiful day filled with love and joy. Lori's mom, former Hamden Hall faculty member Maria Agulian, who passed away in 2022, was honored and remembered through a thoughtful ceremony. Maria's garden décor including her hand-painted gnomes and favorite flowers, as well as Armenian line dancing, were all intertwined in the special day.

Lori also noted that her mom had helped her choose her wedding gown.

“My mom and I picked out the dress together, so you know why it's gorgeous,” Lori explained.

The couple currently resides in Waltham, Mass. Lori also became a board-certified veterinary surgeon earlier this year after years of surgical training and said she is excited for this next phase in her life.
