Halle & Chris
Wedding Party
Valerie Davis
Maid of Honor
My younger sister Valerie and I share a love for dogs and Disney. As kids, we created crazy obstacle courses in our basement and elaborate dance routines, which we always asked our parents to film. Nowadays, she has become one of my closest friends. Valerie lives in Orange County, California.
Andrea Davis
Maid of Honor
Andrea is my baby sister, though she is quite grown up now finishing her junior year in college. Like most siblings, we've had our moments through the years: she once managed to paint my face while I was asleep and I once convinced her that I was a witch. Nowadays, she has become one of my closest friends. Andrea lives in Orange County, California.
Sanjala Chitnis
Bridesmaid
We met in 6th grade and quickly bonded over a shared (and at times competitive) love for reading and Harry Potter. This turned into years of all-night sleepovers, study sessions to get through AP courses in high school, and frozen yogurt trips. Sanjala lives in Seattle, Washington.
Elizabeth Castro Abrams
Bridesmaid
As birthday twins and college roommates, Elizabeth and I ended up planning a lot of parties and events together during our time at Oberlin. Elizabeth was the first person to learn that Chris had asked me to be his girlfriend...though she wasn't surprised. Elizabeth lives in San Francisco, California.
Danielle Wilson
Bridesmaid
Danielle and I met at Oberlin after freshman orchestra auditions. Little did I know then, she and I would end up taking most of our college music courses together and traveling around the world with each other to attend summer music festivals. Danielle lives in Atlanta, Georgia.
Sophia Grabandt
Bridesmaid
Sophia and I used to plan out our weddings while working together as concert ushers at Oberlin. She was a great host on my first international trip and was always the best person to go to Cedar Point's HalloWeekends with, since all of the scarers would target her instead of me! Sophia lives in Berlin, Germany.
Malik Hussein
Best Man
One of two best friends of mine since 5th grade. We bonded over video games and a shared sense of irreverent humor. Malik now lives in New York City.
Javier Martinez
Best Man
One of two best friends of mine from 5th grade. Javi joined the gang a little bit later, but it's been us three musketeers ever since. Javi now lives in Austin, Texas.
Katie Bromberg
Groomswoman
My middle sister, born far too close to me. She is feisty, as I learned in many a karate class, and shares a love of musical theater. Katie now lives in Columbus, Ohio.
Caroline Bromberg
Groomswoman
My baby sister who was born in New Jersey and once cut her hair with scissors while we were home alone. She also took karate and didn't appreciate my fondness for nerf guns. Caroline now lives in Orono, Maine.
