Wedding Party
Lynette Berg
Mother of the Groom
Dillon's loving mother and will escort him down the aisle
Ernesto Venegas
Father of the Bride
Valerie's dad. He will be walking her down the aisle along with Sebastian.
Maria Sanchez
Maid of Honor
Maria has been part of my life since my freshman year of high school. I was not blessed to have a sister in real life but she is totally my unbiological sister. I can always turn to Maria for support, advice, and amazing laughs. She isn't afraid to tell me the truth of matters and comfort me when needed. Maria is an amazing person of inspirational strength. Having her next to me will be an honor.
Amanda Otero
Bridesmaid
Amanda is the ying to my yang. She's been by my side for the last 9 years-literally from 5-8pm. Amanda is my work wife and that means we take care of each other. We laugh together and vent to one another. She's another important person in my support system. Amanda is an amazing go-getter and is willing to roll her sleeves up for her loved ones. I'm blessed to have stand up with me.
Monique Maynez
Bridesmaid
Monique! My fun loving friend. I've known her the longest of all my ladies-before junior high. I can always rely on Monique. If I ever need someone to decompress with she is a phone call or text away. I love her extrovert personality which brings this introvert girl out of her shell. We've seen each other through many phases of life and I'm grateful she'll be next to me for my "I do's".
Gaby Perez
Bridesmaid
I am so thankful God has brought this lovely lady to my life. We met at work and just clicked. We have much in common that it's unreal sometimes. I don't know how many times we have told each other "me toooo" in finding some fact about each other. I love that she's the friend that helps to find solutions and just put plans into action. It's never just talk. I'm blessed to have such a caring lady on my side.
Thalia Simental
Flower Girl
This Cutie pie is the apple of my eye. Her mama is Maid of Honor, Maria Sanchez and her dad is Pino Simental. Maria and I are Tias to our kiddos so she is my lovely niece. She is a sweetheart and fun loving little girl whom I adore endlessly. She is going to be the best flower girl ever!
Taylor Weary
Best Man
The party don't start until he walks in! Taylor is married to Samantha Weary and they're cousins to the groom. Taylor is a fun and energetic man who can liven any room. Taylor is a great man and we're excited to have him stand as the Best Man.
Sebastian Gonzalez
Groomsman
Sebastian is the son of Valerie and soon to be step son of Dillon. Sebastian is a loving and amazing young man who has the compassion of a thousand men. Sebastian is an amazing saxophone player and plays with the Alamogordo Tiger Band. He's competed in front of hundreds of people & mastered complex routines to execute precision in performances. We think he's an outstanding choice to stand up with us to become one family. He will also have double duty escorting mom down the aisle.
Isaiah Venegas
Groomsman
Cookie! Isaiah is nephew to Valerie and Dillon but he's so much more than that. We are blessed to be his honorary parents. We strive to do our best guiding this young man in life and feel privileged to do so in the footsteps of his loving mother Sara. We are thankful to have him standing with us as we become one family together.
Baxter Pattillo
Groomsman
Baxter is one cool guy to be around. Anytime he's in the room laughs are sure to follow. Baxter is married to Emily Pattillo and are cousins to Dillon. They have two beautiful children, Ledger and Silas. We feel blessed to be surrounded by family as we take our vows.
T.J. Weary
Ring Bearer
T.J. is the son of Best Man, Taylor and Samantha Weary. This young man is full of fun and energy. He is big brother to Lucia and Nathan Weary. Being the oldest means he knows how to lead. We know T.J. will be a great ring bearer!
