Wedding Party
Melissa Deng
Bridesmaid
I feel so lucky that I can call Melissa (a.k.a. Mel) my longest friend. Mel has been by my side through every major moment of my life since middle school and I can't imagine anyone else being by my side on my big day.
Tia Lee
Bridesmaid
Tia and I were destined to be best friends since the day she pegged me in the neck playing tennis together (I was her partner). Even when Tia moved across the country, I don't think we went a single day where we didn't talk. I can truly say my life would be so boring without Tia in it.
Ryan Chan
Groomsman
This "brother" of mine is my fellow Chicago Bulls fan and if we can start a friendship from a terrible excuse of a tennis match then we can get through anything. I'm glad that I get to have Ryan by my side on this special day, and to do all things sports with him now and in the future.
Francis Wu
Groomsman
Francis and my paths go way back to our schools in Asia, and our friendship is closely rivaled by our mothers. We share a passion for escape rooms and games of many varieties. We'll shine through the city with a little funk and soul listening to all the K-pop music. With Francis by my side, I'm equally ready for quick witted one liners and extended discussions about random topics.
Tobias Von Bergen
Officiant
Tobi, AKA Dr. Von Bergen, has been a friend of Allen's back to his college days. Despite our busy schedules and living on two sides of the country, we make sure to stay up to date with each other's lives. He can light up a whole room with his boisterous spirit. It is our honor to have him for this special day, and there is no one else we would rather have as our officiant.
