Yuritzi Torres

Maid of Honor

Hello, my name is Yuritzi but go by Yuri. I met Ari when I was 8 years old and she was 9 years old. Throughout the years we still manage to keep our sisterhood very much alive. My favorite memory with Ari has to be OUR birthday weekend. I took her out to the club and we literally danced the night away. I have so many memories from water parks to prom to everything in between but celebrating our birthday together is always my favorite.

Kyle Elefson

Best Man

Hi! My name is Kyle, I met Brandon freshman year of college when we were both living at Cromwell Hall. I have tons of amazing memories with Brandon from playing mud football to the year we shared an apartment at Sycamore Place. I would say that my favorite memory would be being able to see Brandon graduate Basic Military Training and us becoming Brothers in Arms.

Lizda Aguilar

Matron of Honor

Hello, my name is Lizda Aguilar,I’m Araceli's cousin. Sari (as I like to call her) and I have always had a relationship that’s not very close due to distance, but despite that we have always had a relationship full of respect and sincerity, knowing you have someone no matter what. We will always be there for each other. Sari and I loved fighting when we were kids. I mean we loved it because at the end of the day we shared lots of laughs together. On one occasion we threw a big tantrum over some barbies, that time we were both scolded, but at the end without knowing we were also rewarded. Sari was at the zoo eating ice cream, and me playing in the house with the doll for which we were fighting for. There are many reasons why I love and admire Sari. Among them her discipline, determination, and sense of humor. It will be a pleasure to be part of this new stage in your life, with all my heart I wish you the best of the best. I love you !

Andrew Buoy

Groomsman

Hello all, I’m Andrew. I first met Brandon my freshman year of college at ISU. He ended up rushing the same fraternity I was in which led to a lot of fun times. My favorite memory together would probably be doing open to close at the Bally, our local college bar.

Katarina Rossi

Bridesmaid

I’m Kat! I am 31 years young, and a labor & delivery nurse. I was Ari’s roommate in Sacramento! I love coffee, fantasy stories, and reggae music. My favorite memory with Ari is when we took a day trip to San Fran! We ate delicious ramen and saw Fiji Blue & Two Feet in concert. Also, witnessed Ari nervously word vomit to the lead singer of Fiji Blue as she asked him what his name was. His name was Trevor and she said, "Trevor like the drummer". 😂

Fernando Diaz

Groomsman

Hey all, I‘m Fernando. I met Brandon in 7th grade right when I moved here from Mexico. My favorite memory has to be when we were both in Boy Scouts and had to do this biking marathon. It started pouring rain as soon as we got there but we still managed to complete it. Even after almost being struck by lightning which landed right next to us on a light post.

Viktoria King

Bridesmaid

My name is Viktoria. Everybody calls me Vika. I was raised in Martinsville, Indiana. A favorite memory with the bride is when we ran through the ISU fountain which is a special ISU tradition among incoming freshman.

Caleb Myers

Groomsman

Hey, my name is Caleb. I met Brandon in 7-8th grade, but didn’t start hanging out with him until we reached high school. My favorite memory of Brandon isn’t just a single one, but many. In marching band, and band class in general we would have to take field trips to our competitions. Brandon and I would almost always sit next to each other on these rides. So many shenanigans were had on those buses, but one of the best times was when we finessed a crap ton of 12 packs from the Super Bowl tents. Great times indeed.

Sofia Villareal

Bridesmaid

Hi everyone! My name is Sofia and I am Ari’s (favorite) cousin.😜 I grew up in Brownsville, Texas, but currently live in Dallas. A cool fact about me is I used to play kickball in an all-women league for 10 years until I graduated high school. I’m so excited to share this special moment with Ari and I feel blessed to have grown up with a fun, strong, smart, beautiful, and overall amazing cousin. I remember growing up with her and spending countless summers together by the beach or on fun family road trips and events! So many good memories that I always carry with me thanks to Google photos.

Sean Dunaway

Groomsman

Hello, my name is Sean. I met Brandon during our Highschool years through one of the other groomsmen, Fernando. We actually didn’t hang out that often during our Highschool years, but we grew closer through our love for music festivals and hanging out with mutual friends. We became closer friends due to our quirky sense of humor and just always having a good time when we were around each other. My favorite memories are having him there at Vans Warped Tour (a popular music festival back in the day) and some of the funny moments I got myself into back during my college days.
