Koko "Kokonut"Koko "Kokonut"
Best Boy
Our wedding wouldn’t be complete without our four-legged family member and honorary Best Boy. Koko has been by our side through it all—tail wags, muddy paws, and unconditional love. He's our loyal companion, treat enthusiast, and expert cuddle buddy. On the big day, you might catch him strutting down the aisle or sneaking snacks from you! Either way, he'll be dressed to impress and ready for his close-up. Give him a pet (or two) if you see him—he loves making new friends almost as much as he loves belly rubs.
Theadora "Thea"Theadora "Thea"
Pup of Honor
Don’t let the puppy-dog eyes fool you—Theadora runs this show. She’s been the princess of our household since day one, and naturally demanded a front-row role in the wedding (preferably with a custom outfit and her own floral moment). Sassy, stylish, and slightly dramatic, she’s got more personality than most people we know—and she knows it. She’ll be strutting down the aisle like it’s the Met Gala, sniffing out snacks, and making sure everyone knows she’s the main character. Approach with love—and maybe a treat.
Judy GiovanniJudy Giovanni
Mother of the Groom
They say you can't wear too many hats at a wedding, and Judy took that literally. As the proud mother of the groom and your certified officiant. Known for her quick wit and fierce love for her son, Judy will be trading in her usual title of “Mom” for “wedding boss” for one magical day. She's honored to help tie the knot, pronounce things officially, and maybe sneak a tissue or two to the groom if he gets teary. She’s especially thrilled because this moment is extra special—she now gets to say she’s married both of her children!
Andrew GiovanniAndrew Giovanni
Late Father of the Groom
Though he may not be with us in person, Andy’s love, humor, and quiet strength are deeply felt in every part of this celebration. As the beloved father of the groom, he helped shape the man we honor today—instilling values of kindness, curiosity, and a deep loyalty to family. Andy had a steady presence and a generous heart, always the first to offer help, a laugh, or a perfectly timed piece of advice. He was immensely proud of his son and would have beamed to witness this next chapter. While we miss him dearly, we know he's here in spirit—smiling, probably cracking a joke, and watching with pride as his son steps forward into this beautiful new beginning. His memory lives on in every shared story, every raised glass, and most of all, in the love that surrounds this day.
Esmeraldo YapEsmeraldo Yap
Father of the Bride
Whether he’s planting the perfect tomato, chasing sunsets with his camera, or flying down a mountain trail on his bike, Andon lives life with quiet dedication and full-hearted joy. But nothing brings him more pride than being Mia’s dad. From garden projects to graduation photos, Andon has been there for every chapter of her life—offering wisdom, unconditional support, and the kind of love only a true girl dad can give. Watching her grow into the strong, compassionate woman she is today has been one of his proudest accomplishments. He’s honored (and a little emotional) to walk her into this next chapter—though he’s already warned everyone that his “something blue” might be the tissues in his pocket.
Emily YapEmily Yap
Mother of the Bride
Emily has worn many titles over the years—nurturer, advice-giver, keeper of traditions —but none mean more to her than “Mom.” As the mother of the bride, she has walked hand in hand with Mia through every milestone and every heart-to-heart. Watching her daughter begin this next chapter is a moment filled with pride, joy, and just the right amount of happy tears. Emily’s touch is felt in every detail of this celebration—and her heart, as always, is right at the center of it all.
Alaina Giovanni-HausmanAlaina Giovanni-Hausman
Bridesmaid & Sister of the Groom
As the groom’s younger sister, Alaina brings a quiet strength, a sharp wit, and an endless supply of book recommendations. A true literary soul, she’s known for always having the perfect quote, a clever comeback, and a comforting cup of tea in hand. Her thoughtful nature and subtle humor make her someone everyone naturally gravitates toward. Alaina balances warmth with just the right amount of sass, effortlessly calming the chaos and making us laugh along the way. She’s been a steady presence through every moment of planning and celebration, and her love for her brother shines through in everything she does. We’re so lucky to have her by our side on this special day.
Aidan YapAidan Yap
Groomsman & Brother of the Bride
As the bride’s little brother, he’s been by her side in a way only a younger sibling can be—watching, learning, teasing, and loving through all the phases of growing up together. From childhood adventures and inside jokes to family holidays and milestones, their bond has always been filled with laughter, loyalty, and a deep, unspoken connection. Over the years, he’s admired his sister’s strength, looked up to her guidance, and celebrated every one of her wins as if it were his own. Today, seeing her walk into this next chapter, he stands not only as her brother but as one of her proudest supporters. With his big heart, sharp humor, and genuine love, he adds something truly special to this celebration—and his presence is a reminder that family is forever.
Daniela Castro-PriegoDaniela Castro-Priego
Bridesmaid
Bestie of the bride and the ultimate vibe curator, Dani is equal parts funny, thoughtful, and fiercely loyal. She's the go-to for advice, pep talks, and last-minute lipstick fixes. As our bridesmaid, she's not just here to stand by our side—she’s here to keep us grounded, present, and fully in the moment. If you see someone making sure everything flows flawlessly (and probably starting the dance floor), that’s her. We’re so lucky to have her energy and heart woven into this day!
James Edward "Jed" DreswickJames Edward "Jed" Dreswick
Groomsman
As the groom’s best friend, Jed has been his partner in all things—from wild adventures and late-night talks to those “remember when?” moments that never get old. Loyal, dependable, and always ready to bring the laughs, Jed has been there through thick and thin (and plenty of questionable decisions). Today, he’s not just standing by his best friend’s side—he’s literally standing tall (at 6'9). So if you need someone to grab the top-shelf snacks or spot the dance floor from across the room, Jed’s your guy. Expect a few epic dance moves and plenty of good vibes!
Pablo Kunkel-JurePablo Kunkel-Jure
Groomsman
Pablo and the groom have been partners in crime since college days—through late-night "study sessions", questionable fashion choices, and all the unforgettable memories in between. He’s the guy who’s seen it all and still decided to stand by his best friend on the biggest day. Reliable, easygoing, and always ready with a smile & drink in hand (and probably a funny story), Pablo is honored to be part of this celebration—and maybe sneak in a dance or two.
Daniel HausmanDaniel Hausman
Groomsman & Brother-In-Law
Dan is not just a brother-in-law, he’s family through and through. A dedicated EMT turned paramedic, he’s the calm in the storm and the guy you want around in any emergency (wedding day nerves included). When he’s not saving lives, you’ll find him at the gun range perfecting his aim, savoring a fine cigar, or rolling on the mat as a jujitsu enthusiast. Married to Alaina (the groom’s sister), Dan brings steady energy, quick wit, and maybe a few medical supplies—just in case the dance floor gets a little too wild.
