Wedding Party

Meet our family & friends who will walk down the aisle with us on our special day!

Hannah Smith

Matron of Honor

Brianna and I both grew up without sisters, so we decided sophomore year of high school that we would become each other’s sisters. From high school tennis partners to traveling the world together, we’ve been through so much. We’ve survived crashing a row boat into the Slovenian rowing team, and searching the trash and toilets of New York City for Brianna’s lost engagement ring (it’s okay Trenton, we found it). Not to mention, we have matching hats for almost every season. Currently, I live in New York City and I work for JetBlue as an engineer. I just got married in October, so I’m HIGHLY qualified to coach Brianna and Trenton through a wedding. :) In my free time I love baking, CrossFit and running. I’m so excited to celebrate Brianna and Trenton!


Ben Baldazo

Best Man

Ben has been Brianna and Trenton's unwitting third wheel since the very beginning. The month they first started dating, Ben had been Trenton's roommate for almost 5 years and friends with Brianna for 6 (since their first day of college). He had no idea his friends were so perfect for each other and thereby could be considered the worst matchmaker ever. One day two of his best friends were just a couple! Even so, having been present for much of their first interactions as an item (and so many since) he's certain they are bound for the happiest of lives together. He has loved seeing them grow as a couple and into the people they are today. With every cookie exchange, book swap, new years celebration, or tasting party they plan together beautifully, he harbors less disbelief that two of his favorite people one day just became each others' favorite person.

Ana Gonzalez

Bridesmaid

I was one lucky 4 year-old to have met Brianna and made a lifelong friend. It’s been so special, and at times fairly comical, to have gone through many phases of our lives together. I now live in the DC area and enjoy long distance running, hiking, skiing and basically exploring as much of the world as my PTO will allow. I can’t wait to head home to Houston to celebrate and be a part of Brianna and Trenton’s big day!


Travis Guzzardo

Groomsman

Trenton met Travis during Trenton’s sophomore year and spent that next summer as roommates (prepping for orientation week, peck ’em!), during which time they became fast friends. At some point, because Travis was a year older than Trenton, Trenton decided that he needed to copy everything Travis did for the next 9 years: both completed their Masters of Accounting at Rice, and since their respective graduations, both have worked at Deloitte in the Audit & Assurance practice. Trenton even decided to move into the same apartment complex as Travis during the COVID era. Their friendship has blossomed over time, with weekly dinners at La Tapatia (pictured) to vent about their jobs and talk current events (or to watch another ill-fated matchup between their NFL teams, the Cowboys and the Giants), as well as holiday celebrations, Super Bowl parties, and unforgettable birthday parties. Travis saw just how excited Trenton was when he started dating Brianna and was looking forward to spending more time with her, which came sooner than expected when the three of them hunkered down together during The Freeze™ in February 2021. Since then, Travis and Brianna have become fast friends too, and Travis can’t wait to celebrate their union and to spend more priceless time with the two of them in the years to come.

Alicia McCormick

Bridesmaid

I’m a soccer-playing, reading, baking Hanszenite who currently lives in Japan, and constantly reminisces about Houston. I became friends with Brianna and Trenton independently, before they started dating. Brianna is my fun, determined, adventurous, cookie-fiend of a roommate who always had time for a laugh, and Trenton is my kind, funny, generous friend who patiently helped me pass Game Theory class and always made me feel welcome. You can imagine how thrilled I was when I found out they had gotten together, and how happy I am now to help them celebrate their marriage!


Andrew Elsey

Groomsman

Andrew met Trenton at Rice U and developed a close friendship sharing near-daily binge sessions of The Maury Show on a pull-out couch. It takes quite a few lie detector tests and paternity reveals to form a bond of the likes of this. They went on to rent an apartment in Memorial Heights (along with best man Ben B) and exchanged notes on menu items at Fat Bao, Dua Lipa's music videos, and breakfast casserole construction. Andrew foolishly abandoned Trenton in 2020 with a fickle move to the west coast to chase a girl, but the two have maintained frequent contact primarily through memes on Instagram.

Sarah Kubena

Bridesmaid

I was lucky enough to be Bri’s roommate for half of college - go Owls! After almost 10 years of knowing her, she is my “Houston Events” buddy - from watching the Astros win Game 6 at Minute Maid in 2022, to seeing Taylor Swift at NRG, some of my most treasured memories feature Bri. I’m so happy and blessed to call her one of my best friends. When I’m not watching romcoms with Bri, you can find me trying new Houston restaurants, seeing live music, and enjoying roadtrips with my boyfriend. I’m so excited to celebrate Brianna and Trenton’s big day!


Kenny Groszman

Groomsman

Kenny met Trenton in their freshman year at Rice University and bonded over a shared love of music, grilling meats, reality television, and very, very, bad jokes. Since then, the two lived together for several years, played in a band together, and ate a near-criminal amount of Cane’s chicken tenders. Kenny’s claims to fame are a slightly-better-than-average success rate in hitting the vocal harmony part of Dispatch’s Bang Bang, independently diagnosing Trenton with sleep apnea, and helping coin Brianna’s favorite college nickname: Bames.

Sheiva Vakili

Bridesmaid

I met Brianna on the very first day of our freshman year in high school, when we were seated next to each other in geometry class. Little did I know, that we would become best friends for life. We grew together over our shared love of endless ice cream and Friends marathons every Friday after school, but even as we went off to different colleges our connection never weakened. We've shared so many amazing memories now experiencing adulthood together, and I can't imagine my life without her in it. She is my go-to for new restaurant or travel recommendations, but simply just spending time at each others homes can be my favorite thing to do in the city. I'm honored to stand by her side as she marries the love of her life and begins this exciting new chapter. I am so happy she has found her perfect match in Trenton. To know her is to love her, and I can't wait to celebrate her big day with all of you!


Erik Biegert

Groomsman

Erik is Trenton's college buddy and former roommate. When they weren't singing sea shanties and trying out new bourbons, Trenton was cleaning Erik's cat's pee off his mattress. Erik and Trenton rode out hurricane Harvey together, and still frequent Mexican and Marg nights!

Julia Camp

Bridesmaid

Why hello! Brianna and I have been friends since middle school at St. Lawrence. We bonded over loving both loving baking, crafts, sports, and I must admit, Twilight. Brianna has the most kind and generous spirit, and it has been such a joy to be by her side for so many years and to see her with someone as wonderful as Trenton. Find me on the dance floor showing off what Brianna and I learned at those middle school dances!


Sam Alexander

Groomsman

I am one of T’s younger brothers, the middle of 3. One of my favorite memories with T is playing the Nintendo 64 with him when I was younger. From Destruction Derby to Medal of Honor, I still look back on those memories often and how much I laughed.

Evadne Rodriguez

Bridesmaid

I met Brianna (and Trenton) in our shared residential college (Hanszen!!) at Rice. Through roomie adventures, a shared passion for chocolate cake, and starting our own Instagram adventure page together (@TryNewThingsTuesdays), I'm lucky to call Brianna my fun-loving and adventurous bosom friend. I am currently finishing medical school and live with my husband, Mathew, and soon-to-be-here baby girl in Columbia, Missouri. I'm so excited to support Trenton and Brianna in making one of the most meaningful commitments in life. Let's get them married!


Jack Alexander

Groomsman

I am T’s youngest brother. My favorite memory with T is when I came down to Houston and we got to go to the RHCP concert together. It was the first concert I had been to and will always be something I look back on.

Monique Hartemink

Bridesmaid

Sweat, tears, and problem sets brought Brianna and me together as first-year engineering students at Rice (shoutout to the Beta ChBEs!). Since then, our friendship has been filled with spontaneous adventures, daring travels (at 5,000 ft altitudes—twice!), amazing baked goods and smorgasbords (throwback to our picnics!), and endless fun. As a student, friend, and now colleague, it’s been an honor to be partners-in-crime with Brianna these past 10 years, and I’m so excited to join you all in celebrating this next chapter for Brianna and Trenton!


Josh Morse

Groomsman

Trenton and Josh were brought together by the magic of the roommate matching questionnaire for their first year on campus at Rice University in 2013. They managed all the ups and downs of college together, spending all four years as roommates before moving into separate apartments in Houston after graduation. Nature had other plans. When Hurricane Harvey swept in and forced Josh out of his apartment, he gratefully accepted a mattress on Trenton’s floor. It was just like old times. The sleepover “party” went on for about three weeks but ultimately had to come to an end. When Josh left, it left a massive hole in Trenton’s heart, but Brianna soon came into Trenton’s life and filled the hole. Now his heart is fuller than ever before, and he and Josh have a more normal friendship where they get together every once in a while to watch football or play a board game. Josh could not be more thrilled to be Trenton’s groomsman and is honored to stand by Trenton’s side when he and Brianna become husband and wife.

Nick Fleder

Groomsman

Nick had the good fortune of living on Trenton’s freshman year hall at Hanszen, and the two ended up fast friends and later roommates in the now-demolished Hanszen Old Section, though you were more likely to find them grilling fine meats on the quad or playing 2000’s indie/punk pop anthems. Their shared travels have taken them from the far reaches of North America (the Carnival Cruise from Mobile, AL to the beaches of Mexico) to the American heartland (the Indy 500), though some of their best memories were hatched in concert halls around Texas.
