Jenni "JWoww" Farley, a star of the MTV reality series "Jersey Shore," reportedly did not invite castmates Angelina Pivarnick and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro to her surprise wedding to pro wrestler Zack Carpinello. A source told TMZ that both Pivarnick and Ortiz-Magro were "blindsided" by their exclusion from the guest list and are "extremely upset and hurt" by the snub.
Farley, 41, married Carpinello, 31, on Wednesday at Madison Modern Social in Old Bridge, New Jersey. The couple invited approximately 50 friends and family members to the venue under the pretense of a special screening of Farley's upcoming film, "Nanny Cam." They then surprised attendees with a wedding ceremony officiated by the local mayor.
Farley's "Jersey Shore" co-stars who were in attendance included Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Deena Nicole Cortese and her husband Chris Buckner, Sammi "Sweetheart" Giancola and her husband Justin May, and Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino and his wife Lauren. Sorrentino shared photos from the event on Instagram, congratulating the newlyweds.
Paul "Pauly D" DelVecchio and Vinny Guadagnino were reportedly invited to the wedding but did not attend for unspecified reasons, according to TMZ.
Farley has experienced on-again, off-again tension with Pivarnick, notably during Pivarnick's 2019 wedding to Chris Larangeira, where Farley, Polizzi, and Cortese delivered a reception speech that was met with boos from the crowd. This incident led to a temporary falling out between the cast members, which was documented on "Jersey Shore: Family Vacation."
Ortiz-Magro has publicly shared his struggles with mental health, including depression, bipolar disorder, and anxiety. In April, he appeared to nod off during a SiriusXM cast interview, later issuing a statement to fans explaining he was navigating a difficult period and needed to prioritize his own well-being.
Farley told People that she and Carpinello aimed for their wedding to "feel authentic" and "personal and meaningful." She added that they envisioned "a small, meaningful celebration focused on the people who matter most to us."
Farley and Carpinello went public with their relationship in April 2019, several months after Farley filed for divorce from her ex-husband, Roger Mathews. Farley and Mathews were married in October 2015 and share two children, Meilani, 11, and Greyson, 10, who were involved in the wedding ceremony.
