Missy & Will
Wedding Party
Erica Sullivan
Matron of Honor
When you hear the word beaches... to Erica and Missy, it means a couple of things. The movie of course, Missy is the C.C. to Erica's Hillary. Just the thought of that movie makes us both cry, as it is so us. The word also relates to how we imagine our lives if we outlive our mates, perish the thought. But if the event should ever occur, we expect to be spending our final days on a beach somewhere in Florida-Golden Girls style---Missy of course as Blanche and Erica as an even mix of all of the other ladies. Erica more than welcomes Will to the family, as he now is the inspiration for her fav dish- Gandules rice and beans, which now Missy is willing to cook.
Leonides Ferrer
Best Man
Best friends since middle school/party comrade/ mechanic advisor. No car will be purchased without his stamp of approval. Former drinking buddy go-to. Had the market cornered on the best beverages. We both came to Florida from Puerto Rico at the same time, neither of us spoke English. We had to adapt to Florida together. My best memeories with Leo- barbequing on the beach.
Pooja Narang
Bridesmaid
This woman is the kindest, sweetest person I know. I'm beyond blessed to call her my friend! We were roomies in college at FIT. We spent our college years together, parting at the craziest clubs in NYC while getting our heels caught in between the cobblestones in the Meatpacking district, almost every weekend. We graduated together, walking across that big stage at Radio City Music Hall to accept our diploma. We spent our lives together going through each stage, cheering each other on. I'm the white version of Pooja and she is the Indian version of me. Fashion has always been our our focus, until family. I've never known anyone who loves handbags more than her. Our dream is to someday start our own accessories line. We both adore NYC, and won't ever think there is any better place to be.
William Andino
Groomsman
Best friends since William's birth, I've spent most of our childhood pranking him every chance I got. Although we live, miles apart- it's like I've never left. We are just as close as we've always been. As my little brother (measured by age, not be height), I admire his respect for me-which works both ways. I wouldn't want anyone else as my brother.
Casey Crawford
Groomsman
First time we met was at work. My first thought was that I was inspired by his service in the military-I have much respect. He is so understanding and laid back. He is always up for new experiences- he's good at coming up with exciting events to get into.
Victor Gonzales
Usher
This guy, one of the most understanding people I know. He gives you his full attention, then processes the situation and gives you his best response. We instantly felt in sync, we come from a similar type of of area and family.
Pierre Champagne
Groomsman
We met at work. It wasn't long before we realized we had similar hobbies. Pierre is a great party host, loves football-next level. Awesome road trip buddy, our Vermont road trips are beyond memorable with him cliff diving next to me into icy waters. Pierre's personal quote "It's all about the gravy baby"- He hates his Poutine with THAT squishy cheese.
Hugo Rivas
Usher
Though fairly new to the scene, Hugo has become a great friend. He is great at scoping out new locations for us to go to. He is one of my most entertaining and funniest friends. He deserves a place at the table.
