Holly & John
Wedding Party
Autumn Rivera
Matron of Honor
She is my beautiful older sister. She has made me an aunt to three of the cutest munchkins. Even though she doesn't agree that there is no such thing as too much glitter, she's my best friend and I wouldn’t want anyone else to stand by me on my wedding day.
Adam Publicover
Best Man
Brothers since 1998. Although I thought I was getting a sailboat when my parents told me they had a surprise for me on our way to the hospital, I couldn’t have asked for a better little brother. Adam definitely has the “life of the party” energy and if the first dance didn’t require Holly and I to be on the dance floor first, Adam would most certainly be. He is my best friend and I’m glad to call him my best man on my wedding day
Ava Mene
Bridesmaid
She is my baby sister, but looks older than me! Ava is so giggly, she is literally always laughing. She favors makeup, and is a huge dog lover. She has such a kind soul, and never has a mean thing to say about anything. She is actually a girl version of JJ. They both can’t wear socks to bed!
Zach Smith
Groomsman
One of my longest best friends from high school, Zack Smith. One of the smartest guys I know, Zack is a chemical engineer who shares a passion for ice hockey, traveling, and IPAs. Being such great friends, we were able to coordinate his recent beachfront proposal in Mexico together! Fun fact about Zack: He loves to go running in the middle of the night!
Julie Hoffman
Bridesmaid
Best friends since day one of college. She is my favorite drinking buddy, and is always the first one to join me on the dance floor! You better know that we’ll be the first ones on the dance floor on my wedding day!
Ryan Mcdonald
Groomsman
I first met Ryan while he was presenting his business idea during an entrepreneurial competition at The University of Tampa. Sharing the same entrepreneurial drive, Ryan and I quickly became best friends. Ryan is a creative individual, always thinking about different business ideas and how to implement them. Fun fact about Ryan: He recently became a father to his son Julian!
Tyanna Mcdonald
Bridesmaid
The first time I met Tyanna, she convinced me to go out to the bar on a Wednesday night. We’ve been best friends ever since. Every time we are together, we have an absolutely blast. I’ve watched her marry her best friend, and she recently gave birth to the handsome Julian!! I’m so lucky to have her witness me marrying my best friend.
Gavin Benway
Groomsman
This is not the first time that I have picked Gavin to be involved in my life, in 2014, Gav became my Little in DSP. Sharing countless similarities, Gavin and I have been best friends since college. Gavin has a passion for business, entrepreneurship, and meeting new people. Fun fact about Gavin: He would ride the elevators of the skyscrapers in downtown Tampa, just to network with successful corporate decision makers!
Layla Rivera
Flower Girl
My beautiful Layla Rose. She is the absolute sweetest and most loving girl I have ever met. She loves being surrounded by family, and always knows how to make you laugh. She is so so happy to be a flower girl.
Liam Rivera
Ring Bearer
My Liam David. He’s a huge toy story and PJ Mask fan. LOVES his toys is an understatement. You’ll most likely see them at the reception. He’s such a sweet boy, and has the most beautiful eyes! He told me he’s going to be a cowboy for my wedding!
Bella Rivera
Flower Girl
Bella Rose. This fiery, blues eyed blonde is so head strong. She is independent, and loves to do everything herself. She is very excited to wear a beautiful dress, and be able to wear makeup just like her Mama. Oh and just wait for her dance moves. They are epic.
Winston Publicover
The Best Dood
Our son and the light of our life. I actually begged JJ to get a dog once I graduated college and moved up north. The day after I moved, we decided to get a Goldendoodle. He brings so much joy to our lives, and we have met some great friends by taking him to the dog park. We could of not envision our life or our wedding day without this guy.
Robin Mene
Mother of the Bride
My mom will be that lady crying every minute of my wedding. I definitely get my emotional side from her. She inspires me so much. Her strength alone inspires me. We lost my dad, her husband, a few years back, and it hasn’t been the easiest. She has completely taken hold of her life and started her next chapter. Wedding day won’t be the same without my dad there, but I am so grateful to have this woman witness J and my wedding day.
Sheri Publicover
Mother of the Groom
My Mom Sheri is one of the kindest souls I have ever known. She would give the shirt off her back if needed. Throughout my life, she has been the biggest supporter, and has always been there to give me advice. She has the biggest heart, and so much love to give. So grateful to have her here in my life, and to celebrat one of the biggest moments in my life,
Nicholas Wolverton
Officiant
He may look like a tough guy, but underneath he is the sweetest man. He would do anything for his girls, and is always there when we need him. Nic has been there for the most important parts of my life, so it was only fitting to have him be the person to marry us.
