MAID OF HONOR

We’ve known each other for half of our lifetime. Wednesday is my person to the moon and back. We met in my junior year of high school when I turned around one day to ask her what she got for an answer on our trig/pre-calc test. Our friendship was solidified the night I tackled her on the beach during summer camp back in 2009.

BEST MAN

Kyle is my cousin who I have looked up to like an older brother ever since I was seven years old. We spent many late nights playing Halo, Call of duty, and yes even Pokémon, which I have yet to win a single battle against him. He is so goofy and can put a smile on anyone’s face. Even though we live five hundred miles apart, he has still been there for me thick and thin.

Bridesmaid

My sister who literally makes my day and who I have to thank for so many successes in my life. To know her is to feel loved - loudly, proudly, and unconditionally. My love for Disney would have never cease to exist had my sister not collected VHS tapes of the movies for me as I was growing up. With a heart as big as her smile my sister has been a cheerleader during my highs and a rock through my lows. My sister is fiercely protective, endlessly supportive, and forever fun-loving.

Groomsman

Henry is my brother in law who inspires me everyday. The first day that I met Henry he said “welcome to the family” and ever since then, he has treated me as one of his own. Henry took me under his wing and shown the wonderful world of golf, whisky and good steaks. Henry has shown that there is more to life then a job, is about enjoying your family and cherishing every moment with them.

BRIDESMAID

My niece but the closest person I have to being a cousin. Our childhood together consisted of Tina introducing me to KPOP, anime, and many different yummy places to eat. Tina is my #1 karaoke partner and drinking partner.

Groomsman

I met Daniel while working at American Medical Response, and from day one, I knew he was a great guy. Whenever I need advice or ideas, he's my go-to. He’s always there to help and guide me in the right direction. Daniel is hands down the most creative person I’ve ever met. I’ll always appreciate our In-N-Out talks and all the times we’ve hung out. He’s not just a friend, he’s someone I can truly trust and admire.

BRIDESMAID

Tini is the one family member that always laughs at my jokes and laughs with me until we cry and bellies hurt. Tini and I grew up staying up late talking about what we hoped and dreamt of in a life partner. Now engaged herself I can’t wait to see our dreams coming true. A true foodie at heart, Tini is always my partner down to snack and eat all sorts of things.

GROOMSMAN

Ryan is the most genuine person you will ever meet. He is truly a kind, honest, and a real stand up guy. Even though he is religiously always twenty minuets late, there’s never a time I wouldn’t want him there. His presence means a lot to me, and I’m lucky to call him a friend.

BRIDESMAID

Mommy? Mamacita? Megan is my mamita who has been by my side through many ups and downs life decided to throw at me. Many nights over drinks and laughter at BCD could never be forgotten. Megan was one of my inspirations for becoming a nurse :) I knew I got her when she let me hug her fully knowing she’s not a touchy person.

GROOMSMAN

There’s never a dull moment with Camron. He can keep me laughing for days. His energy is unmatched and he lights up every room he walks into. Cam is a devoted husband and a caring father who works hard and lives fully. He’s the kind of friend who shows up with Creed playing, a Coors Banquet in hand, and a brisket on the smoker. I couldn’t ask for a better guy to have by my side.

BRIDESMAID

My ohana 🩷 Living together during our UCR days are still stories we tell with tears in our eyes. Adriana was my knight in shining armor when it came to killing bugs in our apartment. Adriana and I used to sleep with our mattress on the floor back in college where there were many mornings of me oversleeping my alarms for class. Nights in our apartment is when we would talk about our ultimate dream, which is to live in the same neighborhood so we can continue spending our time together for family dinners and Target runs.

GROOMSMAN

I met Fouad at American Medical Response during the pandemic and we both had the same neck gaiters. He invited me shooting not long after, and the rest was history. My first thought was, “Wow, this guy is really cool,” and I was definitely not wrong. Fouad is the kind of guy you just give a date to, and he’ll make something happen. He’s a true friend and someone who always looks out for others and shows up when it matters.
