Ashley Nazario

Ashley is currently in her third year of college. Luis is her oldest brother and she is his only sister. She met Nicole, who made a great first impression on her the first time they met, and she knew that she could ask her for advice. Ashley’s favorite memory with them is going to the city or ordering White Castle at 1 am 😅. She can’t wait for the future memories to have.

Jeovany enjoys his time by traveling to as many countries as humanly possible, watching sports like soccer/football/basketball, and exploring nature. Although he doesn't remember meeting Nicole in person, and only remembers chatting with her through FaceTime, he is certain that she's a special woman if she can put up with Luis and said yes to marrying him 😅. He looks forward to welcoming his soon to be sister in law to their crazy side of the family.

He also enjoys seeing the Mets, Broncos, Nuggets and Cristiano Ronaldo lose. His favorite memory of Nicole and Luis is playing charades till 3 in the morning and seeing their firece competitive side. He can't wait to officially welcome her to the family.
Jason Nazario
Groomsman
Jason is currently in his freshman year of college and lives in NYC. Jason is the youngest brother of 4 siblings. He enjoys going out with friends and spending time with his family. He likes to watch all kinds of sports and somewhat attempt to do them. He sucks actually… Anyway, he’s looked up to the groom his whole life and is excited for this new chapter in his life along with his soon to be sister in law. After only knowing her for a brief amount of time, he knows that Nicole is the perfect life partner for Luis because of the level of compatibility shown. He’s made a lot great memories with the two already and is anxious to make many more. Hoping for the best for both in this new step.
