Anika & Alex
Wedding Party
Stefan Baumgartner
Man of Honor
Anika's best friend and best twin. Her greatest adventure is getting to walk through life with Stefan by her side! He truly is so supportive, compassionate, and authentic. She wouldn't want anyone else standing right next to her on her big day.
Ryan Enriquez
Best Man
Ryan is Alex's older brother and has always been someone for him to look up to. When Alex was studying abroad in Argentina during college, Ryan came for the second semester and they were able to travel together to Machu Picchu. We are still trying to bribe him to move to Michigan so that we could be closer.
Sam Weaver
Bridesmaid
Anika and Sam started as preseason athletes together, and then became college roommates for the next three years. From spring break trips to traveling and living abroad, they have been through a lot together. There was never a dull moment and Anika is thankful for Sam's fun, spontaneous, and adventurous spirit. And we can't forget those dance moves!
Jacob Enriquez
Groomsman
Jacob is Alex's younger brother and thanks to him Alex suffers from Middle Child Syndrome. It has been a blast watching him grow over the years. He is very driven, but also loves a good vacation. Currently, Jacob is not only working full time as a nurse but also studying full time to get his BSN. He may claim to be the best-looking Enriquez brother but he will never be the strongest.
Caroline Hall
Bridesmaid
Caroline is Anika's spunky, animal-loving cousin, but also one of the most genuine people in her life. She's one (of many) older cousins that Anika has looked up to and appreciated her advice and encouragement while they were growing up. Her feisty and tenacious personality along with her sense of humor made all of their family get-togethers a blast!
Kevin Penington
Groomsman
Kevin was one grade ahead of Alex in school. While Kevin was the leading scorer in our high school basketball division, not enough credit is given to Alex for passing to him and helping create those scoring opportunities. They enjoyed living together for a year during college at Walla Walla University. They typically spent Sunday mornings cooking and consuming enough food to feed a football team. Kevin is a top tier guy and Alex is happy to have him present on his big day.
Hillary Gow-Sujo
Bridesmaid
Anika and Alex both became friends with Hillary throughout their years in Physical Therapy school. From the very beginning Hillary got them with her sense of humor and outgoing personality. Through hours of studying, living together during their last clinical, and numerous Facetime calls, they are so thankful for her friendship!
Eric Ghelfi
Groomsman
Eric was one grade behind Alex in school. During summer, Eric's house was like a second home. Low quality sci-fi movies and riding scooters down the side of the mountain were great ways to pass the time as kids. Eric has always been a big a thinker and has an innate ability to connect to people. If you'd like to discuss anything in the fields of psychology or philosophy, he is your man.
