Maid of Honor
Stephanie is my cousin and the older sister of the co-maid of honor Amanda. She teaches 6th grade math and although she's probably the same height as most of her students, she is fierce! She's very passionate about education, and her dedication to her students doesn't stop at just math but includes forming her students into good humans.

Amanda is my cousin and the younger sister of the co-maid of honor Stephanie. Amanda manages an upscale brew house, which utilizes her love of cooking and talent with community with other people. She has become a connoisseur of mixology and the service industry, and her kindness is apparent to anyone she meets.

Courtney and I met at church, and bonded over our mutual weird obsession with the Spanish language. There are not many people who understand our love for dancing to duranguense. We lived in the dorm together for a year in college at Harding University in Arkansas, and stayed up too late laughing most nights. Although we don't see each other often since she lives in Tennessee, we jump right back where we left off as soon as we reunite.
BridesMAN
Wendell and I met while working together at Sonora Quest Laboratories in the cytology department. We formed a strong friendship quickly and would often talk on the phone for hours after leaving work at 1 am. It's hard to describe the relationship that Wendell and I share, as we are closer to brother and sister than friends. As anyone who is friends with me on facebook knows, Wendell is hilarious and really good at stealing my phone and hacking into my facebook posts. We've lived together for the past 3 years and have spent many days taking turns bugging each other as well as many nights having deep conversations, or singscreaming along with the Dixie Chicks.

Danielle and I met while working together at Sonora Quest Laboratories along with Wendell. The three of us started traveling and Danielle and became a lot closer during a trip that we took to San Diego. From there we took trips at least once a year, and have traveled to Vegas, San Francisco, Denver, Seattle, Thailand, and Cambodia. We survived sleeping under a mosquito net in Cambodia, managed to share a full size bed along with Wendell in an airbnb in Thailand with no running water, and once met a gorilla in the basement of a bar together. Hey gurl hey!
Bridesmaid
Marcie are I work together as nurses on the observation unit at Banner Desert. As with most people that meet her, I instantly liked Marcie from the first time we met. We ask (forcefully) to work on the same side of the unit at work, and she makes me laugh until I cry at the things that come out of her mouth. Marcie is hilarious and has such a big heart. Her kindness is apparent when I hear her talking to her patients, which you can hear every word of from the nurse's station because she's so loud! :)
Best Man
Tom and I met at a Yelp event here in Phoenix, the first one I had ever been to. We quickly became close friends, spending a lot of our free time together. We shared many interests from guns to paintball, and of course making money. With Tom's experiences in house renovations, we started a house flipping company, as a side job. Two houses in, we are already seeing success together. Tom's kind heart, and passion to put his whole heart into everything he does made him a natural choice for best man. I proudly call Tom my best friend
Groomsman
Shao is one of my oldest and dearest friends. After meeting in the first month of high school, we quickly became best friends, and were inseparable my entire teenage years. Shao is still like a second brother to me, even spending most holidays at the Dipasquale house. Although we are separated by hundreds of miles, when we see each other it is immediately the same as the day we left.

Shawn and I have been friends since we were 15 years old. Spending our teenage years getting into trouble, and hanging out on main street, we were the greatest of friends. Shawn has become a successful Millwright, eventually branching out to start his own company, which has had great success. Shawn is and will always be one of my dearest friends.
Groomsman
Nader and I met at an interesting time in his life. Nader was at an impasse in his life, as he had just made the decision to leave the world of computers, and follow his passion of becoming a professional photographer. We became closer friends as time went on, and eventually became roommates. We lived through two separate houses together. Over two years later, Nader has had much success as a professional photographer producing amazing photographs! Nader and I only parted ways as I moved in with the last roommate I will ever have, my love Ashley. Nader was a great roommate, but an even better friend.
Groomsman
Jacob is one of the first friends I made when I moved to Phoenix. He has been a very positive influence on my life, from his strong relationship with his now wife Ashley, to his constant exercise and outdoor activity. A solid golf buddy, and reliable co-conspirator. Jacob has made my life a more pleasant one since we first met.
