Adam Lands

Best Man

Adam is one of those guys you'll never forget once you meet. He's somebody that sincerely makes an impact on every person he comes across. Even though Adam & I weren't close for the first year knowing each other he believed in me & my abilities from the beginning & I didn't even know it. It's truly because of him I've been able to experience the success I have over the past 5 years & despite our age difference he believed in the person I was & the person I was to become when I didn't believe or see what could be myself. From work, to family, to my personal health Adam's always pushed me to step over any obstacle with one foot & in the right direction with the other (even he had to build a concrete step himself). The perfect man to be at my side as I join hands with the love of my life.

Cory Barrios Jr.

Groomsman

The soon to be Brother-In-Law! Even though Cory is Monica younger brother, it's easy to say he's very protective of his older sister. We haven't had a crazy amount of time to bond with one another between my traveling for work & him being away for school but the time that we have had has never been stereotypically awful. Our personal interests differ but our sense of humor being similar has always being our point of connection. Cory Jr. is someone that I admire a lot, and that's because despite being the middle sibling his love for his family and sisters is just as it would be as the first born. (I see that in him being the oldest in my family) I'm thankful for him being accepting of me from the beginning & never making feel like anything less than his brother. Here's to being family!

Toby Rodriguez

Groomsman

Toby's the guy who's always been a big brother (some times a little brother), a great role model, teacher & student. He's taken me across the world, He's who brought me into the business & the memories we've made over the years are truly priceless . Plus he's the only one out of all my friends who's ever crushed a 4x4 at In-N-Out with me ! (Yes on multiple occasions)

Jaden Otani

JR. Best Man

Jaden at the base of our relationship is 1 (of my 3) male students . His spunk, his humor, his drive as a whole motivates & inspires me constantly as a dancer & Choreographer/teacher . He’s the sweetest 11 year you’ll meet, Just started dancing a year ago & already dancing professionally , easy to say he’ll go places ! Now all this isn’t why he’s joining me as my JR. Best Man. No, aside from our professional relationship I consider Jaden my little brother . He reminds me of myself & I can’t wait to see where he ends up . He’s also Harper’s Godbrother, & we share the same birthday!

Jaxon Albano

JR. Groomsman

Jaxon is one witty kid, & another one of my male students. He’s not only a student but someone who’s guided me in different ways through my process of trying to guide him. I’m so glad he and his family chose to be apart of our dance family because he’s honestly been a huge part of not only my life but our families as a whole. He acts like a great big brother to Harper and I’m grateful for him all the way around .

Marco Cruz

Officiant

There are so many things I could define Marco as & a numerous amount of categories he fits into that play apart of my life. Easiest to say is he is my longest lasting brother. We met in 2013 & quickly found out how much we had in common with one another. From the friends to our personalities, to the experiences we'd been through or wanted to achieve it was scary how long lost we were in each others lives. From being someone who I traveled with for work, he took me under his umbrella and has believed in every aspect of me from the start. We've been there through the good and the bad, the joy and heartache, the sleepless nights & celebratory openings. The bond we share is impeccable. All of this not just for me but for Monica as well. There's nobody else I could see holding this honor !

Harper Reign

Flower Girl

Elijah Heirs

Groomsman

Oh Elijah, I haven't known this man long at all. I don't even think I have a full year... but I wish I had gotten the chance to meet him a lot sooner. He is one of my first and only male friends up in the bay area in which we actually keep in touch and try to do things. He's a spunky wildly energetic dude from Georgia but couldn't fit in more right at home here in California. To being lifelong friends, thanks for being apart of my day buddy.
