Daniela & Casey
Wedding Party
Keara Turner
Matron of Honor
Keara and Casey’s friendship began the way all great stories do—with a race. They met at age 11, going head-to-head in the pool. No one remembers who won (we're legally required to say it was a tie), but that race marked the beginning of something lasting. From teammates to classmates to coworkers, life kept putting them in the same lane—and they never looked back. Through every chapter since, Keara has been Casey’s rock. She’s the kindest smile in any room, the calm in the chaos, and the one who makes you believe you can’t fail—because she simply refuses to let you. Whether it’s late-night talks about life or half-baked plans involving fake IDs they definitely didn’t have in college, Keara is the person who will back you up every single time—with zero judgment and total conviction. If Casey was jumping off a cliff, Keara wouldn’t just be there—she’d be holding her hand, double-checking the parachute, and bringing snacks for the way down. She’s endlessly loyal, quietly hilarious, and humble to a fault. For nearly two decades, Keara has been a constant source of support, strength, and unconditional love. And now, as her matron of honor, she’s not just standing by Casey’s side—she’s helping carry the heart of this celebration. There’s no one better suited for the role, because there’s no one who knows her better.
Vianca Luna
Maid of Honor
Before Daniela was a swimmer, she was just a kid with a immunocompromised younger sister and a long list of childhood activities she wasn't allergic to. Spoiler: Vianca's list was much shorter. Thankfully, Vianca being allergic to pretty much everything nudged Daniela into the pool—and the rest is history. So really, Casey owes her entire love story to Vianca. We’re talking matchmaking by immune system. That’s dedication. Vianca is loyal to a fault, kind to the core, and hands-down the funniest person in any room—especially if that room is playing a Bills game and serving cheap beer. Whether it's bar hopping, dancing ‘til sunrise, or getting unapologetically chaotic on a random Sunday, Vianca brings the energy every single time. And if her sister needs her? Plans canceled. Phone down. Chaos paused. She’s there. She’s also deeply obsessed with Winnie the Pooh. (Like, “could write her thesis on it” obsessed.) Her comfort character is a honey-loving bear in a crop top, and honestly, that checks out. As Maid of Honor, Vianca is the protector of timelines, deliverer of tequila shots, and first responder to any wedding-day emergency. She's not just the bride’s sister—she’s her ride-or-die, her forever bestie, and the heart of this celebration.
Elizabeth Bramley
Bridesmaid
Casey met Liz during their first year of law school, back when both of them were running mostly on caffeine, anxiety, and a shared belief that they were absolutely not going to make it. Calm and steady were not the words anyone would have used to describe them back then—but somewhere between outlines, breakdowns, and way too many late-night vent sessions, their friendship became the thing that grounded them both. As the years went on, they each found their footing—and the chaos turned into something more solid, more steady, and full of trust. Their friendship grew quickly and deeply, built on late-night study sessions, shared ambition, and countless conversations about life, law, and everything in between. Years later, Liz continues to be one of Casey’s closest confidants—the person she turns to for advice about everything from major life decisions to the most ridiculous, borderline unhinged scenarios. And somehow, Liz always has the perfect answer—thoughtful, honest, and usually laced with just enough sarcasm to make it land. Liz is the kind of friend who listens carefully, speaks wisely, and loves fiercely. She’s the calm in the storm, the voice of reason when it all feels like too much, and the first to remind you of who you are when you start to forget. As a bridesmaid, Liz brings deep friendship, unwavering support, and the kind of presence that makes everything feel a little more manageable—and a lot more meaningful.
Hannah Rozow
Bridesmaid
Casey and Hannah met just two and a half years ago, but from the start, it felt like they'd been coworkers—and co-conspirators—for much longer. Brought together by the firm and bonded over a mutual appreciation for mid-day margaritas, their friendship quickly became one of the best parts of the workday. Whether they're swapping legal takes, bad takes, or planning their next lunch escape, Casey and Hannah have a way of making the office feel just a little more bearable (and a lot more entertaining). Hannah is loyal, brilliant, and outrageously funny—often at her own expense, and always sort of on purpose. In a short time, she’s become an essential part of Casey’s everyday life—and now, part of one of her biggest days, too.
Kristin Lahaszow
Bridesmaid
Kristin and Casey first met in 2018 at a law student networking event in San Francisco—one of those fleeting introductions you barely expect to remember. But life has a funny way of bringing the right people back around. A year later, they ended up at the same law firm, in different offices but on a shared path, and their friendship took root quickly and naturally. When Casey eventually moved to the San Diego office, Kristin became one of the constants in Casey’s life—someone to count on for spontaneous adventures, last-minute dinner plans and wildly ambitious travel ideas. Their friendship wasn’t instant—but it’s the kind that’s grown deeper with every season, every challenge, and every completely unhinged concert night. Kristin is thoughtful, sharp, and always up for a little bit of chaos in the name of a good story. As a bridesmaid, Kristin brings not just joy and support, but a lifelong friendship. She’s proof that sometimes people come into your life when you least expect it—and stay exactly when you need them most.
Sofy Soto
Bridesmaid
Sofy and Daniela go way back—like “matching swim caps and pre-race pep talks” back. From chlorine-scented childhood practices to wedding day glam, Sofy’s been there through it all. Now she’s trading pool lanes for legal briefs as she studies to become a lawyer—just like Daniela’s bride-to-be (case closed: we love a themed friendship). But let’s address the swim cap-wearing elephant in the room: Sofy has the most intense resting bitch face known to mankind. Like, genuinely worse than Daniela’s—and that’s saying something. For several months, Daniela was fully convinced Sofy was mean. Not "shy" mean. Not "quiet" mean. Just mean mean. She avoided her like she was the lifeguard about to cancel practice. Spoiler alert: she wasn’t mean. She was just silently judging everyone with love in her heart. Once Daniela finally gathered the courage to speak to her, she discovered what the rest of us now know: Sofy is the life of the party, the keeper of all the best gossip, and the first to hand you a strong cocktail and a stronger opinion. Whether you need a hype woman, a brutally honest truth-teller, or someone to threaten your ex with legal action, Sofy is your girl. She’s loyal, loud in the best way, and always brings the drama—in the most fabulous way possible.
Ellie Hohensinner
Bridesmaid
Some friendships are forged in fire. Daniela and Ellie’s? Forged in ice. Literal ice baths, to be exact. College brought them together, but it was their shared collection of joint pain (knees, shoulders, elbows—basically the entire orthopedic chart) that sealed the deal. Hours spent post-practice, half-frozen and slightly over it, turned into deep conversations and the discovery that they both had... let’s say selective social energy. (Translation: they didn’t like most people. Just each other.) But ice baths weren’t their only ritual. These two bonded over a slightly more caffeinated obsession: Starbucks. If you’ve ever wondered what an elite Starbucks fan club looks like, it’s probably just these two debating the merits of holiday cups while debating life’s bigger questions. Though Ellie leans quiet and shy on the surface, Daniela has a unique ability to unlock her “life of the party” side—and once it’s out, watch out. She’s that rare mix of subtle and spicy, and she’s been grounding Daniela’s chaotic energy ever since college—especially when the tequila starts talking and the thoughts get... creative. Ellie’s the one making sure things stay mostly legal and occasionally logical. Even if they don’t get to see each other as often as they’d like these days, their bond hasn’t skipped a beat. They pick up exactly where they left off—like no time (or states) have passed. A little ice, a lot of heart, and a lifelong friendship born in the coldest tub on campus.
Caro Lopez
Bridesmaid
Before she was a bridesmaid, Caro was the friend in high school who always had Daniela’s back—no questions asked. Every time Daniela missed class for a swim meet, Caro was the one making sure she didn’t fall behind, covering for her when needed, and somehow managing to make her laugh through the stress. She never complained, never hesitated—she just showed up. That’s who she’s always been. Caro is the kind of friend who shows up in every season of life. She’s funny, fierce, and deeply loyal—the one who’ll dance with you all night, then hold your hand the second things get hard. She tells the truth even when it’s not easy, and fights for the people she loves with her whole heart. She brings joy, strength, and just the right amount of chaos everywhere she goes—in the best possible way. As a bridesmaid, Caro brings a lifetime of friendship, unwavering support, and the kind of love that has only grown stronger with time. She’s not just part of this wedding—she’s part of Daniela’s story.
Mayte Cano
Bridesmaid
Mayte and Daniela first met in 2012 while riding stationary bikes during practice. Everyone else was running, but with knees that just couldn’t keep up, they found themselves side by side, chatting about anything and everything. They weren’t especially close at the time, but that easy conversation sparked something that would grow into one of Daniela’s most meaningful friendships. Eventually, they became training partners in the pool—though Mayte might argue she didn’t exactly ask for that. Still, through countless laps, shared rides, and long practices, they grew closer. Even after going to different colleges, their friendship never faded. Every school break they spent in the same town turned into an adventure, full of laughter and memories they still talk about. Thirteen years later, they’re still each other’s people. While Daniela is heartbroken that Mayte won’t be able to attend the wedding, she knows their friendship is the kind that shows up in all the moments that matter, no matter the distance.
