Wedding Couple
There is no one else who can make me feel perfect and loved just the way I am. We've encouraged each others dreams and supported each others decisions. I couldn't imagine a better human to share everything with. I look forward to our future together and all the adventures that await. Never forget that I love you just as you are.
Officiant
We have been friends since 1st Grade. Ximena is my longest and dearest friend! She knows literally every one of my embarrassing stories, having been there for most of them. She embodies everything I wish I could be. Her humor and genuine personality is unprecedented. Anyone who has had the pleasure to know Ximena knows there is no one who can make you laugh and smile like she does. The world is a better place because of people like her. To this day I feel so privileged to have her in my life and am so glad she will be officiating the wedding.
Best Twin
Having a twin is like being born with a best friend, there is no stronger bond then the one we have. I couldn't live without my womb mate. We had never been apart for more than a few days until I moved to San Francisco and even then we would be on face-time for hours a day hanging out, or chatting on the phone while i explored the city. Knowing that we'll always be there for each other no matter the distance has always made me feel comforted no matter where I am.
Best Comrade
Caleb has been my best friend for many years. He has been supportive through the ups and downs of my life, has given great guidance, and has influenced me to adopt qualities of love that he delivers to his family and friends. It was incredibly easy to ask for him to be my best man... there is truly no one that could measure up to his generosity.
Assistant to the Regional Manager
From college roomies to besties. Tori is one of my closest friends I've made as an adult. She's the one who has been there for the ups and downs in relationships, homesickness and the uncertainty of my future after college. I've never felt so instantly connected or at ease around another person. We're always empowering each other to be strong independent women and have learned to look to each other for strength when we need an extra hand on a bad day. I know I can tell her anything out judgement. I feel lucky to have her along side me during one of the biggest moments of my life.
Tommy's Spirit Animal
I have not met a more genuine person than Emery. They are incredibly insightful, intelligent and offer a soft warm element to my common rigidity. They remind me that rough and ruggedness actions are not the only way to succeed. They ave taught me to be humble, loving and careful. They are an entity to not take lightly; Emerys friendship is a gift.
Confection Queen
I met Danielle when Tommy and I first started dating, We quickly learned we are kind of the same person. We're both creative, share similar tastes in people and food. She's like my sister from another mister. I admire her creativity and her free spirit. She's also an incredible baker and cake artist which our guests will be lucky enough to experience.
Warrior Friend
Emma follows her own path. She stands up for what is right even if it is against the odds. She is incredibly brave. If you are lucky enough to be privileged with her friendship, you will then have the most supportive friend, that will literally go to battle to protect you, your identity and the things you hold most dear. Her love is challenging to acquire, making it significantly more powerful.
The Teenager
We spent so much time together before I went off to college, to be honest I would have rather hung out with her at Starbucks or the mall than hanging out with my friends. One of the hardest decisions was to leave knowing I would miss out on a lot of the little things with Sav. My niece has grown so much since I moved to San Francisco but she'll l always be my little Banana. She's an amazing person, and a full blown teenager and I'm excited that she can be here to share this special day with me.
The Intellectual
Devo is incredibly intelligent and has been a stellar, supportive colleague and friend for years. He is a very dear friend that I can always lean, and communicate topics that overlap personal and professional life. I am incredibly happy to have him beside me on this day just as he is on all of the others.
Mama Bear
Iesha is just a year younger than I am which most people would not be able to guess, We pretty much grew up together most of our lives. We event went to the same high school for a year. I've always been her crazy aunt who never seems to really grow up. I admire her and her cool-collected self. She's a wonderful niece and mother of two lucky boys, and wife to a lucky guy. I love being her crazy Aunt Nikki.
Mr Charismatic
I don't think there could be a kinder, more interesting person out there. Isaiah has been my friend for many years. I am excited to share this day with him alongside many of our mutual friends. He is a hard worker and would sacrifice his time to help you whether it be during a professional or personal lull. He has been supportive of my goals, and it has inspired me be as supportive to him and others.
My Little Bronie
Joseph is my favorite brother . . . my only brother but if I had others he would be my favorite. I'm amazed by how kind and genuine my brother is in comparison to most guys his age. He's truley a unique human being with more passion for life than anyone I know. I can definitely admire that he loves what he does everyday and continues to better himself despite everything else that may be going on around him. He's such an introvert sometimes but if anyone has the chance to get to really know him you would see him the way I do.
Der Ausländer
Val is yet another supportive friend who has taught me a lot. Dominique and I love being claimed as her America family since she travels back and forth between Germany and the US for education and family. I am very happy to have her in my party of most trusted friends on my biggest day. I am glad we continue to grow together.
Nuestro Amante
July is a firecracker; If left unattended I'm sure she and I would be trouble. She's planned many awesome events in the SF LGBT community. I had the pleasure of meeting July at one of her day parties shortly after meeting Tommy. There is absolutely nothing this woman can't do. She is a woman of many talents including hair and makeup services, event planning and running her own business. She never fails at being an amazing, fun, beautiful, and generous friend.
