Matron of Honor
Vanessa is the sister of the bride. "She has been a special part of my life and holds a big place in my heart. We've always been very close and share a lot of the same interests, especially Disney. I am so happy she will be standing by my side on this special day, just as I did on her wedding day. There is no one else I'd rather have fluff up my dress and hold my bouquet. I love you, Tata!"
Bridesmaid
Melissa is one of the bride's very best friends. "I've known Meli since I was 3 years old and we have been inseparable from the beginning. Even when we went to different schools, we kept in touch by writing letters to each other, having 4 hour long phone calls and random movie outings. I am so fortunate to have a friendship with her for over 25 years. Thank you for being a part of my special day and for always reminding me how important it is to have paciencia y fe."
Bridesmaid
Bianca is my "cousin" for lack of a better word. "You know when you've known someone for so long, and you know them through your family so they just become your cousin? That's Bianca; she's part of a very special family that I've known since I was born and they've been present for all of our family's biggest moments. I was very honored to stand by her side on her wedding day and am happy that she will be there as I say YAAASSSS to my happily ever after. Love you, Binky!"
Bridesmaid
Michelle is one of the bride's best friends. "Michelle and I have been friends for about 9 years now. She entered my life during my "Twilight" stage and accepted me for who I am from the start. She never left me. Our friendship is based on honesty, being ourselves and fandoms. We've loved each other through some weird times and have gone on countless trips together. Thank you for always reminding me that life finds a way."
Bridesmaid
Kaytien AKA Katy is one of the bride's best friends. "Katy is probably the most likable person I know. We have been friends since 2009 and we also share a love for all things Disney, and other weird things. She has even traveled with my family and I on our family vacations. She is the president of my father's fan club and has a contagious laugh. I'm so happy she will be a part of my special day and has been there to remind me to always keep moving forward."
Best Man
Chief of Staff to the Groom "I met Juanky in 2009. We were regulars at Marlins games and soon discovered we shared many interests including baseball, politics, history, teal and black, and meditation gardens. Our friendship was forged on the campaign trail and late night "bombing runs." Juanky has an opinion on just about everything and he will be sure you know where he stands. He is idealistic and tenacious. I could not be happier to have him and his wonderful wife, Inelis, in my life. She is convinced Juanky and I are destined to live next to each other and spend our sunset years attending protests at Versailles in guayaberas."
Groomsman
Executive Director of Excel Sheets "I'll never forget the first time I met Adonis. He started dating my cousin, Stephanie, and showed up out-of-nowhere to a family function. He's been a tremendous addition to our family. He's always offering his help and making sure those around him are having a great time. If you have any type of problem Adonis is likely to recommend an app that can solve your problem. He is also the first to try and bring people together. He puts everything on an Excel sheet. He and his wife are expecting their first child (a boy!) in January."
Groomsman
Philosopher "Who is Alberto? Also known as Luigi or the Philosopher Pisani, he is quick to drop wisdom you can use in a few simple memorable words. I met Luigi through Juanky in 2009 when he had Marlins season tickets. Luigi has a sly sense of humor. He's always the life of the party and likes to test his limits. I think Cass gets a little jealous of him sometimes. He will tie the knot with his fiancée, Kathy, just a few weeks before our wedding. Ask him to tell you about the Polish space program's successful trip to the Sun."
Groomsman
Astros Fan "Rabs is my favorite Panamanian. I met him at a Marlins game when he and his wife Joyce began sitting behind us. We knew the same group of people so it was an easy conversation starter. Before you know it, we've known each other for 7 years. He is the person most likely to argue with Juanky-- particularly about everything -- and why they must have at least 2 people between each other at sporting events. Most people call him Rab, but I've always added the "s" for stylistic proposes. He holds dual citizenship as a Marlins and Astros fan."
Groomsman
One of the groom's best friend. "Jeorge and I grew up together. We met freshman year of high school at Hialeah High. He's always calm, cool, and collected. We've been lucky enough to complete our undergrad together and share the same workplace(s) for much of the last 11 years. We've grown-up together through different stages of our lives."
