Aleks & Gavin
Wedding Party
Isabella Dioses
Maid of Honor
A friendship formed in a 5th Grade classroom. She was the "little fashionista" and I the "rowdy girl". I feel blessed to have watched us grow through Elementary, Middle, and High School. As well as watching Isabella become an amazing mother to her precious daughter, Ava and getting engaged to her sweetheart, Michael. YOU'RE NEXT!
Bridget Bourke
Bridesmaid
My sweet older sister, to whom I am eternally grateful for motivating my parents to adopt abroad. Her laughter fills the room with love and warmth. If you think you're an animal lover, wait until you meet all of her fur babies and patients.
Brooklyn Aboulhosn
Bridesmaid
A soon to be sister-in-law with a heart of gold. Our world traveler, who would never turn down a spontaneous trip, good food, and a good time.
Masyn Aboulhosn
Bridesmaid
A soon to be sister-in-law who shares so many of my qualities. A little sister that I never had growing up and a person of many talents and characters. Nothing brightens my day more than her erratic and hilarious facetime calls.
Dominique Brunke
Bridesmaid
A best friend by grace. Always on stand by, shares the greatest advice, and the only person I know who has the ears of a bat. Yes, she will shush you in the middle of the night, even if you cannot hear yourself whispering. The girl loves her sleep.
Bella Tran
Bridesmaid
My very first friend on the block. Nothing will beat the memory of her ringing the doorbell and asking, "is there a girl living here?" No way of communicating, yet having the best time riding our bikes, walking to school together, and having countless sleepovers. Here's to us beating the language barrier, growing together, and you always having my back!
Pat Bourke
Father of the Bride
The most selfless and hardworking man I know and a wonderful first-time grandfather to little miss Brittany. But most importantly, the greatest father a girl could ask for.
Sue Bourke
Mother of the Bride
The most gracious and warmhearted mama. She has embraced motherhood like no other, traveling thousands of miles to take two children under her wings, spent countless hours ensuring my little brother and I had a wonderful childhood, and has taught me the true meaning of family. I would not be the person I am today without her.
Peter Kien
Best Man
Pete has been my best friend since early elementary school. He's had the biggest influence on who I am today and is someone I can always count on to have my back (unless I'm wrong, in that case he calls me out on it). Pete is the most level headed guy I know and always tells it how it is. The bond Pete and I have formed is the result of 15 years of growing and building each other up into the people we are today.
JohnAnge (JA) Kernodle
Groomsman
JA is the party man. Give him a place, but no need for a time, he'll be there. Whether we're in the engineering library for the 3rd night straight, mixing up some house music, or building an app that's "gonna be big", JA is undoubtedly going to make it a good time.
Nick Haeff
Groomsman
Nick was my first friend in elementary school and was always the smartest in the classroom. It's hard to compete against someone who's literally good at everything. I'll never forget the time when we spent the day playing nerf on the golf course, admiring his handcrafted blow dart, then seeing my first human heart after watching Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom. Nick has always been a person I've looked up to since I was young and he still plays that role today.
Ben Aboulhosn
Groomsman
The youngest of the Aboulhosn clan. Ben was lucky enough to survive through childhood, even with my torture. Ben is the gamer of the family, but probably can't beat you in Rocket League.
Sam Pruett
Groomsman
If you were wondering if the sky was blue, it isn't to Sam because we could debate about nearly anything under the sun. If you know me, I like to nerd out, and Sam has always been there to hear me ramble on about anything from geometric series (yes, 0.999... is equivalent to 1, I'll save you the 2 hours) to "are we alone in the universe".
Noah Lozevski
Groomsman
Noah is one of my best friends from NC State and is a fellow Amazonian. Although he was a biomedical engineering major, we often spent days at a time in the library together. Noah is one of those friends you can text in the middle of the night and always expect a response. I'll never forget the time I was driving back to North Carolina from Ashburn and arrived at my front porch only to realize I left my keys in Virginia. Luckily, being the great friend he is, Noah happened to have a key from when he was watching Richie and came in clutch at 4:30 in the morning.
Nabeel Aboulhosn
Father of the Groom
I surely wouldn't be where I am without my Dad. He's taught me so many lessons about work ethic, responsibility, ownership, and much more. He's had the patience to sit on the phone with me for hours while I analyze a 5-minute conversation I had with my coworker last month. I owe many of my successes to him and he's guided me through many of my failures.
Susie Aboulhosn
Mother of the Groom
My mom wouldn't let me get away with anything as a kid. Make sure to ask her why I had to pick up dog "leftovers" in the neighborhood for a whole month. It may have taken me the good part of two decades to recognize there was method to this madness, but my Mom has made me the man I am today.
