I raised my family with love, hard work, and a little bit of sazón, and now I get to watch my granddaughter begin her own journey. I’ve wiped scraped knees, mended broken hearts, and always had a pot of arroz simmering when someone needed comfort. Life tested me, but I never stopped giving, never stopped loving. Today, I stand proud—resilient, strong, and full of joy—because she carries my spirit into her future.

Over the years, I’ve taught and performed music, and I’ve had the joy of playing many instruments, though the guitar, saxophone, and clarinet are my specialty. I have a silly since of humor and like to keep things lighthearted. I’m a proud father of two sons, and through marriage, I’ve been blessed with four stepsons, five stepdaughters, and a growing number of grandchildren who lovingly call me Papa. Family and music are at the heart of who I am, and today I’m honored to celebrate with the people I love most.

I’ve always tried to be a loving and nurturing presence in their lives, raising them with a deep love for God and a strong sense of family. I love to sing, and I’ve always had a creative spirit—whether through music, homemaking, or simply finding joy in the everyday. Today, my heart is full as I celebrate this special moment with my family.
ChristiChristi
Maid of Honor
Angie and I became fast friends. Within just a few months of knowing each other, we were already on vacation together (Angie doesn’t waste time when she finds her people lol).I may bring a little thrill and a big personality. Whether it's impromptu lunch dates, go-karting, or traveling, I’m down, but I may need to sneak in a nap first! I also have a need for speed, so while I may be small in stature, my foot still hits the gas pedal just fine.As maid of honor, I’m proud to stand beside the bride I now call my sister, and affectionately, my Twin.
