Ai Fatima & Marvyn Paulo
Wedding Party
Rose Marrian
Maid of Honor
Cousin? More like sisters! As one of the nurses in the family, she's obviously smart and fabulous. We used to fight over Barbie dolls and chocolates, but we grew up the closest. Miles and time zones apart, but I can call her whenever and for whatever. My go-to person for almost everything.
MJ Kevyn
Best Man
My brother. My keeper. My best friend. This guy is my main source for advice right before I do anything questionable or significant. There’s never a time that he failed me. Through all these years, he’s been the more responsible one. Sometimes I'd forget that I’m the older brother. I can't even imagine not having him in my life. Honestly the only other person in my life that can talk sense to me. The most honest, most respectful, the most honorable man in my life. I’m truly blessed to call this man, my brother. I don’t know where I’ll be or who I’ll be without him. I'm proud to call you my best man, clown.
Jessica
Bridesmaid
Met her in college (West Coast!). We’ve been inseparable since. She's sweet, bubbly and one of the most trustworthy person I met. We studied and partied together throughout nursing school and after. My Vegas and Disney buddy. Treated each other more like sisters. With her, I can be 100% transparent. Always my pusher in achieving most of the things I was just dreaming of (even buying a house far away from 'home'). My go to for whatever because I know that I can always count on her.
Jose Ma Raul
Groomsman
Young Jomari. Where do I start? My ride or die. This guy’s my idol. Got all the charisma, all the lines for all the girls. I could rely on him at any time I need him. My go-to when it comes to the female species when I was single. Tough ass, but got a heart of a saint. Friend that turned into family. My day one before day ones were even a thing. Introduced me to the world, pretty much. When I was finding myself, figuring out my identity in my teenage years; he was the one I grew with. I’d give my all for this guy, and I know he got my back no questions asked, anytime, anywhere. I’m honored to have you as my groomsman.
Mara
Bridesmaid
My neighbor and classmate since elementary. My ride or die. The most forgiving and loyal friend a person could ever have. She is truly beautiful inside and out. High school will never be the same without her, but I am always grateful that our relationship never changed through the years. We always have each other's back then and now.
Richard
Groomsman
The most straight edge guy in our group; the friend with the most logical thought process. One of my closest friend. I can talk to this man about virtually anything: about life, careers, goals or travel plans. I aspire to be as driven as him. For years when we were partying, he was in front of his books finishing school – studying for his RN. & it was all worth it. Worked out for us, cause he’s always our sponsor now, lol. When I need a source of motivation I can always turn to him. He may not look like it, but this guy got the biggest heart. Thank you for always being there for me, bro.
April
Bridesmaid
Probably the youngest member of this party. She's a very jolly, high spirited and smart young woman. She made me feel at home with the family when I first met them. I am grateful and honored to have you by my side on this important day. I cannot wait to see you succeed further in your dreams.
Michael
Groomsman
Sicco Mike. Part of the original wedding party. Dressed in shorts and wet white t-shirt straight from a pool party lol. You get the best of both worlds with him. Sweetest and most generous person you can come across. & at the same time - the hardest, "Don't test me!" I admire many qualities that he has. Not just the way he carries himself, but the way he treats others. He reminds me to remain humble and respectful as much as you can. Get to know this guy, you'll be lucky to be a friend of his. I'm grateful to still have you around, brodie. We on!
Andrea
Bridesmaid
We met at Shutter island. A professional nurse on the floor, but definitely a comedic queen in the streets. Always fun to be with. She's the only person that can make me eat salad and healthy food. Became our housemate when we moved to our house. Always grateful to have her by my side when I'm far away from home. No longer my housemate, but still family at heart.
John
Groomsman
John Bone Jones. AKA Redjohn AKA Moneyjohn. Man, one of the toughest individual I’ve ever met. I could honestly say that this guy would take a bullet for me. The enforcer in the group. I feel safer when I'm with him cause I know he'll throw down with whoever when they come dissing huh, John?! "Who trippin'?" But he's also one that reminds me when my behavior is becoming out of control. Keeps me down to earth. Living down the street from me, he was my go-to when I needed a quick vent. & I know to this day, I can still count on him. I appreciate you, bro.
Christine
Bridesmaid
Met some awesome people in nursing school, and she’s one of them. With Christine, I learned maturity and independence. She is my voice of truth and knowledge (especially in nursing). More than school, we supported each other with life and love. I became Christine's first born's godmother, whom I love so much! We might be miles and hours apart, but I love this girl without any doubt!
Lesther
Groomsman
Leeno. You guys don’t know how many nights our wives have yelled at us for being too loud playing video games, lol. Whenever I'm confused about a decision, I go to him. Taught me a lot of things through his experiences, been through the roughest, but made it out. Matches my stubbornness and doesn’t back down. I can trust this guy with my life. I can only hope to be as resilient as him. He reminds me that time can heal anything, and not to hold grudge for anyone or anything. He may look like a manyak, but this man made me a better man in many ways that I can count. I’m thankful for you, bro.
