Wedding Partay
Samantha Sanchez
Maid of Honor
Sam is one of Joyce's closest friends, and the kindest person you will ever meet. Sam and Joyce have an infinite number of shared memories. Most notable was going to the theaters and watching chocolate melt on Joyce's clothes, and jamming out to Disney Channel songs in the car. If you see her, tell her she's done an amazing job and give her lots of words of affirmation.
Sabrina Sanchez
Bridesmaid
Sabrina is Samantha's youngest sibling. Joyce has enjoyed watching Sabrina grow up into a beautiful, strong, intelligent lady. She is the queen of all things beauty and fashion related, and queen of my heart.
Amy Grace Lovell
Bridesmaid
Amy Grace (or *Ate Amy) has had multiple roles in Joyce's life. Neighbor, Sunday school teacher, small group leader, discipler/mentor. She is like an older sister to Joyce. Amy Grace will be providing moral support and bestowing wisdom throughout the wedding process. * "Ate" [Ah-Teh] is used to address an older female relative or friend (especially one's own sister) and means "sister".
Sarah Bishop
Bridesmaid
Sarah is Joyce's older sister and (unofficial) administrative director of the wedding planning process. If you think your invite may have been lost in the mail, if you say, "Help I've fallen and I can't get up," you know who to call. She will also be quoting lines from Disney Movies on the day of the wedding upon request.
Eric Edillon
Best Man
Half Best Man and half Huel protein powder. Eric is Nick's best boy. One of their most memorable interactions was in high school Spanish class where Eric described Nick as, "No es pequeño," to the entire class...this motivated Nick's fitness journey.

La Ron is like a father figure to Joyce. On the wedding day, you will find him busting a move on the dance floor. * "Kuya" [Koo-Yah] is used to address an older male relative or friend (especially one's own brother) and means "brother".
