Wedding Party
Erica Rojas
Maid of Honor
One amazing woman that Ashlee has spent her whole life looking up to and loving. A rare kind of friendship that blossomed outside of being related. Erica has loved Ashlee fiercely since she was born. Her first true friend in the world, until their brother was born. Life would be dull without her presence in it. :)
Ryan Lee
Best Man
Ryan has been a guiding hand for Brandon throughout the labyrinth and challenges of life — both as a father and a best friend. It is an honor beyond words to have him standing beside the groom as his best man on this unforgettable day
Lucy Rojas
Bridesmaid
Ashlee's first little bean. Her wedding party would not be complete without her niece. The moment she was born, Ashlee knew how special Lucy is. There was a whole summer that Ashlee got to take care of Lucy and we swam so much we became fish. It's an honor to watch her grow up and become her own person.
Iueh Soh
Groomsman
From childhood adventures to adulthood milestones, Iueh and Brandon’s journeys have always grown side by side. As the older brother, Iueh has been a constant source of strength, trust, and guidance — a role model Brandon has always looked up to and relied on.
Heather Zapata
Bridesmaid
Heather is such a lovely addition to the Zapata tribe and has become a sister to Ashlee. She is a wonderful mother and really brings out the best in Ashlee's brother. She's communicative of her needs and Ashlee admires that. Our big day is blessed to have her as a bridesmaid and family member. Her Bad Bunny rapping skills are 10/10.
Michael Meyer
Groomsman
Mike and Brandon first connected over the online game of League of Legends, quickly becoming fast friends. The first time they hung out, they played together joyfully until 6 a.m. — just in time to head straight to their morning college classes. Mike’s magnetic sense of humor, positivity, and random pearls of wisdom have made every moment together unforgettable.
Shelby Mies
Bridesmaid
This woman has been Ashlee's friend since 13 years old and has seen every inch of growth Ashlee has been through over the years. Shelby is a fierce woman that has shown Ashlee what it means to live. From the days of camp, to the summers after college, and now adulthood. Shelby is forever Ashlee's true friend and will always be "told when she's older." Meanwhile, her and Ashlee are only about 5 weeks apart. It was the best joke turning 16. :D
Nathaniel Yuan
Groomsman
Dr. Yuan (aka “The Naponon”) and Brandon have been through thick and thin together — from thriving in medical school to adventuring through Costa Rica and Nicaragua while studying abroad. Naponon is an incredibly kind soul whose athleticism, drive, and fun-loving spirit continue to inspire Brandon. Be sure to wish him luck as he takes on his next big challenge this coming October 2026: The Full Ironman in Sacramento!
Adrianna Franco
Bridesmaid
Adrianna is the greatest and most loving friend. We met randomly through a mutual connection and our friendship blossomed over 11 years. Our adventures remain unmatched and I've witnessed the amazing woman she is. From our beach walks to our cozy nerd nights inside. I've never been so blessed to know such a beautiful, smart, and talented person. She's taught me how true friendship flows but survives with communication.
Jon Chao
Groomsman
Jon and Brandon became friends during freshman year of college. Swiftly after meeting they decided to team up and become roommates, leading to many unforgettable legends and adventures! Jon is a well-rounded individual — combining sharp unparalleled technical intelligence with a great sense of fun. Brandon can always count on him and is blessed to have him as a close reliable friend.
David Roth
Groomsman
David and Brandon bonded over their shared passions for board games (especially Catan!) and cocktail sipping — a truly dangerous combination. With a sharp strategic mind, David is always orchestrating multiple steps ahead of the competition, whether in games or in life. His fiery competitive spirit and adventurous energy make him the perfect companion for a fun competitive showdown or a spontaneous exploration around Palm Desert.
