AJ & Edgar
The Wedding Party
Sarah Acree
Bridesmaid
Sarah started off as a coworker of both Edgar and I. Although not trying to, she stood out in a crowd. She was sweet, smart, wild, carefree and she wore her heart on her sleeve. Making it easy for us to get along. We quickly became friends outside of work, too. Hanging out together, what most would consider "too much". To add fuel to our firey bromance, we then started working yet another job together. I swear there was never a dull moment when we were scheduled together. From throwing imaginary ninja blades at each other to playing the "stab" game. ...Work never sucks when you work with your Best friend.
Rose Rodriguez
Bridesmaid
A little history on Annie and I, We've known each other since the 6th grade. We went to church together. And lost touch with each other for a few years. When she got out of the Army we rekindled our friendship and started going on "guy nights" together. Which consists of shooting our combined, many, guns at The Range. And afterwards having food and drinks. We share each others sarcasm, humor and interest. She's little and often quiet but if you push her the wrong way im certain she can lay you out in a heart beat... but she probably wont. She has 2 daughters whom Edgar and I were blessed with watching for about a years time while Annie furthered her education. We are the "fake mom and dad" to her two daughters. And we couldn't have picked a better mother for them!
Regina Cantu
Bridesmaid
Like most kids, it was easy for me to make friends in elementary school. In the 2nd grade I met Regina. We were well alike in many ways. A couple of words I'd use to describe Regina, as a kid, would be: crazy, loud, honest, blunt, fun and loyal. And those are the same words id use to describe her today, too. And because of that we remained great friends: best friends.
Jessica Pulliam
Bridesmaid
I meet Jessica while working at a bbq restaurant. We attended a Easton Corbin concert together and from there we hit it off. She was young, pretty and up-to-date with fashion. Being several years older than Jess and fashion not being my strong suit, Shes the only friend ive ever "tried" to impress. Lol. I remember one of the first times I hung out with jessica, edgar looked at me and asked "whats this all about?" My response was "I'm hanging out with jessica". I quickly realized she wasn't my friend because I dressed a certain way but because we found characteristics in each other that we admired and valued, such as, strength, courage, loyalty, compassion, empathy and persistence. Overall we found a best friend in each other
Felicia Zapata
Maid of Honor
One way to describe a sister is: A built-in best friend. Not only do I have a sister, I have a friend for life. No need to worry about who will be my maid of honor at my wedding or who will be my first child’s godmother; life has thankfully already built that special person into my life, and it’s my (little) big sister. We didn't always get along growing up. She was your typical big sister and I was the typical little sister. It only took us 19 years to reach this point, but I couldn’t be more grateful that we're here.
Robert Barnett
Groomsman
We met through the other groomsmen back in the early aughts. We have continued our mischief and mayhem ever since. As quick to crack a joke as he is to crack open a cold one, Rob ensures there is never a dull moment when he's around.
Andy Chaussee
Groomsman
Partners in crime since 1995. We met in high school and have been fast friends ever since. Quick-witted, handsome, and charming are some of the hyperbole he'd use to describe himself. He's been there through the ups and downs of life and stuck with me despite it all. I am proud to call him a friend after 22 years (god we're old) and happy to have him be part of this momentous occasion.
Jordan Brown
Best Man
Separated at birth only to be reunited in 1996, my brother from another mother has been with me through it all. His wife and my soon to be wife cringe when we're together, realizing all too often how similar we are. As loyal a friend as one could ever hope for, Jordan has been someone I can count on, bounce ideas off of, talk to endlessly about any tangent known to man and probably several that are unknown. A love like ours cannot be defined. I'm pretty sure that AJ is only mildly jealous of our relationship. I couldn't be happier to have him as my best man.
Andrew Lee
Groomsman
My little/big brother. While at first glance one may not be able to tell we're brothers, he is a man that I can instantly see the impression I've left on. From his quickness to laugh (contagiously so) to his ultra-competitiveness, to his sarcastic brand of humor it is easy to tell that we are brothers. Get us in a room together and be prepared for child-like laughter and sarcasm to run rampant. While age and often times distance has kept us apart, I know that the second we're back together we can pick up right where we left off. I'm glad that he will be able to share in this moment with me much like I did with him for his own wedding.
