Wedding Party

Josiah Varghese

Best Man

My name is Josiah, a Nursing and Psychology Student at Elmhurst University. I love the arts and competitvely dance around the country. I’ve grown up playing several instruments and sports with my brothers over the years. It's amazing to see Sona grow up into the individual he has become today. He has found an incredible partner by his side like Elizabeth who is absolutely perfect with him. Genuinely a match made in Heaven was created right before my eyes! I can't wait to see where my brother will go and the person he is to become. Sona has been by my side all my life and I can't wait to see him continue on with Elizabeth and be by her side. It’s an honor to be my brother’s best man and seeing him enter a new chapter of his life. I wish you all the best Sona and may God bless you and your future abundantly!

Nehemiah Varghese

Best Man

My name is Nehemiah Varghese. Currently, I’m a 17 year old multi-sport athlete, and leader of numerous organizations within my society. However, my love for sports and passion to lead have developed through observing and being inspired by, my brother, Sona. As years have passed, I have watched my brother develop into a man capable of handling many stewardships and responsibilities. And WHILE the years have passed, he met a woman capable of supporting him, advising him, and keeping him in check throughout all the hard times. As a brother, and future brother-in-law, I am unequivocally proud of both Sona & Elizabeth and their undying will to keep each other smiling and to always look forward. I wish wonderful years to come towards their marriage!

Abel Varghese

Groomsman

I’m Abel, Sona’s cousin. Sona and I grew up in the same house and we’d always having a little sibling rivalry between us. We’d measure each other constantly to see who was taller (it was always me). We’d play one-on-one in basketball to see who was better (also me). And we’d always be asking Ammachi and Appacha who between us was their favorite (no contest, me). Even waking up every morning we’d see who could brush their teeth the fastest (our dental hygiene were the real losers there). Once we moved out into separate houses all we wanted to do visit and sleep over, but our parents kept saying that Sona and I were going to end up fighting and so we couldn’t. There’s a lot of merit to that as we did fight A LOT, but we still had so much fun with each other. I loved going to kindergarten with him every morning and making up weird songs and dances and playing Power Rangers in the backyard. He’s my first best friend and I’m excited and blessed to be able to witness and be apart of the covenant he’ll make with Liz soon.

Alvin Varghese

My name is Alvin Varghese. I'm 27 years old. I studied physics in my undergraduate years and then decided to pursue a career in medicine as a physician. I'm Gregory's (Sona's) paternal cousin. The two us along with our siblings were raised in one household for many years. Growing up we all faced many milestone alongside each other. I'm honored he asked me to be a part of the biggest milestone in his life yet.

When I first met Elizabeth in our Disease and Epidemics course at UIC, I quickly found she was joyful, considerate, and engaged. We bonded over our approach to health and interest in oldies songs. Since then, we have become great friends and I’ve seen her and Gregory grow from couple to committed. I couldn’t be happier they found each other and to be by their side on such a special day.

Giann Munnar

Bridesmaid

I'm Giann, and one of Liz's bridesmaids! I met Liz when we studied at UIC (fun fact: we attended Oakton at the same time too but never met) and we have been close ever since! Been a witness of Greg and Liz's love story ever since she introduced Greg to us and Greg has also become a solid friend to me and our group. I like visiting coffee shops, playing games on my switch and exploring national parks during my vacation. Forever grateful to be a part of this special celebration!

Abigail Eapen

Bridesmaid

Abbey Eapen, Bridesmaid, cousin of the bride. My favorite memory with Elizabeth is when she would choreograph action songs for me and my cousins to perform at church. When we were younger she would be the first person I would show my new dolls to, or a new song I learned on the piano. I'm so glad to have grown up with such an amazing older sister figure to look up to! Very excited to be a part of her and Sona’s big day!

Sharon Eapen

Bridesmaid

Sharon Eapen, bridesmaid, cousin of the bride! I am a gym rat but also never say no to sweets. My favorite memory of Elizabeth is when we would all pick out Tinkerbell characters & she would always make sure everyone was included and that the characters fit our personalities. To this day she is the type of person to stick her neck out for people! Super excited to spend this day with Sona & Elizabeth Chechi! Congratulations to the both of you!!

Liz and I met back in college, and she was always the most stylish person I knew. She is still my fashion inspo! I am constantly amazed by the kindness and warmth Liz exhibits and I am so lucky to honor and celebrate this special day of love!
