Wedding Party
Rachelle Speckler
Maid of Honor
Rachelle and I have been friends for 23 years, sharing countless memories and milestones together—from birthdays and Bat Mitzvahs to now celebrating my wedding day. Rachelle was our matchmaker, setting us up on our very first date, and for that we will always be thankful. I’m so happy to have her standing by my side as we celebrate this next big adventure.
Ryan Arnold
Best Man
The best man to go to a concert together with; to drink a beer with; to talk to when you need a differing opinion. Ryan is truly one of the best friends one can have in life. He's there at the drop of a dime and no questions asked. He can also put on the best concert money can buy! I would not be the person I am today without having Ryan as a friend!
Jacqueline Brooks
Bridesmaid
Jacqueline has been one of my closest friends for years, and I’m so grateful to have her standing by my side on our wedding day. She’s the kind of person who can light up a room with her laughter and always knows how to make someone smile. She is my "talented and tall Amazonian" friend. I can’t imagine saying “I do” without her right there with me.
Jack Lapporte
Groomsman
The oldest friend I've got is Jack. We've been thru pretty much all that you can do as almost 30 year olds. From staying up all night watching movies in his parents backyard inside his camping tent, to playing golf at some of the most prestigious courses in the world! He is truly a friend I can't live without!
Jeremy Montes
Bridesman
Jeremy has been a dear friend and an adventure buddy. We’ve shared countless nights singing around campfires, harmonizing under the stars, and laughing until our voices gave out. His friendship has been a steady rhythm in my life, filled with joy, creativity, and unforgettable memories. I’m so lucky to have him as my bridesman, standing by my side on such a special day.
Cody Brown
Groomsman
Cody Brown, is like an older brother to me, that helps you along to find the answer. Also, he is someone who has phenomenal music taste and can shred guitar. While living in Fresno, he and I created some really fun memories from work and our band! Those are memories and recordings I will hold onto forever. Whether its at the track or on stage I'm fortunate to have a friend like Cody.
Emi Ishii
Bridesmaid
Emi is one of my cousins, and definitely my favorite! Some of my happiest childhood memories came from our time together. We had countless sleepovers and pool parties that are unforgettable! I can't imagine growing up with a better role model than from her. Having her as part of my wedding day makes it feel even more meaningful.
Carlos Rios
Groomsman
Carlos has been a friend almost as long as I can remember. From running gassers in football practices to showing up to a gig 3 hours early, setting up, and playing for the bartender, Carlos is the guy to have around! He is the best to have around because you can count on Charliee to make memories.
Kylee Saito
Bridesmaid
Kylee and I have been friends since high school, where we bonded over swim practices and shared laughs on the pool deck. She’s the one who first introduced me to working with students in special education, which sparked a passion that shaped both of our careers as teachers. Over the years, our friendship has grown through countless memories, big life moments, and shared dedication to our students. I’m so grateful to have her by my side as I marry the love of my life.
Lorenzo Lopez
Groomsman
Lorenzo has been through the tougher times in life with me. I'm grateful to have someone like him to be able to experience these milestones with. Lorenzo has been a go to friend since the 8th grade-he is unforgettable. I know he is someone who I can always talk to and will always see me as me and nothing else.
David Speckler
Flower Guy and Ring Bearer
David has always felt like a little brother to me, and he also happens to be Rachelle’s actual little brother. I’ve had the joy of knowing him his whole life, and Ben has loved getting to know him over the past few years. It means so much to both of us to have him be part of our wedding as both our ring bearer and flower guy. We know he’s going to bring his own charm and personality to this special day, and we can’t wait to share the moment with him.
