Wedding Party

Meet our family + friends who will be standing by our side!

Natasha Doran

Matron of Honor

She's beauty and grace - and resembles a princess from outer space. Tasha is my mentor, biggest support, inspiration, style icon, and woman crush! From neighbors in Freshman year of college to living in the same apartment complex in our post-grad lives, we've been inseparable! Here's to many more years of following (stalking?) each other to the ends of the earth. - Amanda


Jacob Miller

Best Man

A true gentleman. From books to bar-tending, Jacob helped to make me the man I am today. Three years ago, I moved into 404 and over the next two years, Jacob, Cole and I experienced deep philosophical conversations, slavic cooking, improvised bartending, fantastical board games and of course, Russia's Finest™. I won't have anyone else standing by my side on my big day. - Javi

Michelle Valdovinos

Bridesmaid

Michelle is the best cousin in the whole world!! After being two peas in a pod during childhood, we lost touch with each other for almost 16 years and then miraculously reconnected again two years ago - and are just as close as ever! I'm not letting this girl out of my sight again - so I asked her to be with me on my special day! -Amanda


Richard Greenhauff

Groomsman

A real man’s man. Richard is a fellow member of the Tough Guy Association from our high school days. And between his out-of-the-blue phone calls to his late night philosophical quandaries, Richard has proved to be a good friend through and through.

Jennifer Guiher

Bridesmaid

She's been my friend since we were both 10 years old. Nothing could tear us apart over the years - not college plans, nor busy lives, or living over 1,100 miles from each other. When we couldn't see each other every month, we became pen pals, and our letters were notorious for being over 30 pages long. She's the Sam to my Frodo, and I absolutely cannot imagine this day without her by my side. -Amanda


Alex Gonzalez

Groomsman

My brother from the same mother. Alex was my roommate for way too long. And as annoying as this may have been, I could never have asked for a better brother to share my childhood with. Alex is a guy who knows how to keep it real and I am happy to have him tag along with me again.

Mary Pelchat

Bridesmaid

Mary is a rare gem of a woman. From filmmaking to podcasts to starting a writing club, she's collaborated with me on several projects and harebrained ideas. A true creative with a big heart, she's grown closer to me each year as a friend and colleague since we both graduated from film school. I'm so excited to have her by my side as a bridesmaid, if only so I can have someone to understand all my sick cartoon references. -Amanda


Eric Gonzalez

Groomsman

Quite literally my oldest friend. At the bright young age of 3 months old, Eric entered my life and though the first few years are unmemorable, after the age of 5, there are memories of Star Wars and bottle rockets, Xbox and sword fighting. Eric has been the best primo and will definitely add a lot to our special day. -Javi

Gianna Valdovinos

Flower Girl

Gianna was the best sport about the fact that my wedding day takes place on her 9th birthday! I've watched her grow from a tiny baby and I'm so proud of the young lady she's growing into. Gianna is the cutest flower ever, and I'm so glad she'll be my flower girl! -Amanda

For all the days along the way
