    The Wedding Party

The Wedding Party

These wonderful people are invaluable members of our family and support system. We love them more than words could ever express, which is why we asked them to stand by us on our wedding day.

Lyzette

Matron of Honor

Sarah grew up with 3 brothers and always wanted an older sister. As luck would have it, Lyz filled the role perfectly! Lyzette shares Sarah's love of chocolate, coffee, and early morning chisme. Fun fact: Lyz convinced Sarah to try on "one more dress" and it turns out her pick was THE ONE!


Eddie

Best Man

Eddie is Angel’s brother and confidant. He is the tame to Angel’s wild and the best dancer we know. [Trust us, those hips don’t lie]. Eddie has always been Angel's partner in crime. Although miles apart, they continue to challenge each other through virtual board games. These two are nearly polar opposites in every way and they love each other more because of it. Eddie is Angel's original best friend and Sarah is the luckiest girl to gain him as a brother.

Melissa

Maid of Honor

Melissa & Sarah met at Baylor. They bonded over their mutual love of books and participated in countless late-night runs to Common Grounds, the best place for coffee in Waco. Sarah introduced Mel to authentic Mexican food (like any real friend should do) and Mel taught Sarah that book clubs are basically the best thing ever. They travel the world together, enjoy sharing their favorite books, and are content simply lounging on the beach reading a Jane Austen novel.


Ryan

Groomsman

When Sarah met Ashli, her husband came along with the friendship package. Talk about getting a steal! Ryan is a witty, history-loving, beer-brewing, Gilmore-Girls-watching, joke-cracking, political pundit with the heart of a lion. This guy brewed a special batch of beer for the entire Groomsman party!

Charli

Junior Bridesmaid

Charli is Sarah’s sister. She’s a fireball mixed with a little hurricane and one of Sarah’s favorite people in the entire world. These two can laugh about anything under the sun, share a deep love for reading, and love their other siblings a whole heap!


Ceza

Groomsman

He’s the newest addition to our friend family. Ceza loves playing all kinds of games and is always down for an adventure. He gives amazing hugs and his super power lies in deep comic book knowledge. Seriously, ask him anything about the Marvel/DC Universe.

Ryan

Junior Bridesmaid

Ryan is the littlest sister. She is pure sugar and incredibly adorable. She gained all the artistic talent and paints life with every color in the box. Ryan can light up a room with her smile and plays a mean game of chess.


Ebrey

Groomsman

Ebrey and Angel met in high school. [Yeah, this couple likes to stay friends for a really long time.] Ebrey loves arcade fighting games and likes to talk about the one time he got store champ at a Street Fighter tournament. He's the creative genius of our friend group and the first one to get picked for a game of Pictionary.

Honour

Bridesmaid

Sarah & Honour met in highschool. Fun fact - they hated each other. Somewhere in the middle of eye-rolling and snippy comments, they realized they were soulmates. They’ve been best friends for 14 years and counting and Sarah can't hardly wait to meet Honour's little one (who Sarah & Angel will no doubt spoil the heck out of).


Adrian

Groomsman

Adrian is Angel's cousin. He is always ready for an adventure. We could share all the embarrassing stories about him with you but, instead, we'll keep the chuckle to ourselves. Adrian is an amazing musician and easily one of the kindest souls Sarah & Angel have ever known. He will likely be the snazzy guy in a suit running the sound-check at the reception.

Nicole

Bridesmaid

Sarah & Nicole met at Baylor, where they shared too many adventures to count (and still going strong). Nicole always has a level-head and the best laugh. She never fails to point out the ridiculousness in a situation and cheers Sarah on through everything. Nicole is the calm to Sarah's chaos and a wonderful friend.


Anthony

Groomsman

Anthony is Adrian's brother and (for all intents and purposes) Angel's too. Growing up, Anthony was the fearless cousin, willing to try anything with Angel. You can imagine this landed the two in their fair share of broken windows and scraped knees. Luckily, they never broke any bones. But lord, did they push the limits. Let's just say, when Anthony and Angel are together, there's always a story to tell afterward.

Kirstin

Bridesmaid

K is basically the Gandalf of Sarah's life. She's full of sage wisdom, knows how to "tell it like it is," actively practices Tae-Kwan-Do, and manages to always be there when Sarah needs her most. She's basically magic and Sarah loves her to the moon and then some.


Alex

Groomsman

Alex and Angel met in high school over a game of Magic The Gathering. They've been friends long enough that the Familia Gonzalez basically adopted him. He's their "Gordo" and the whole family is super proud of his accomplishments. These two still play Dungeons and Dragons together and can laugh about pretty much anything.

Van

Bridesmaid

Van's the only reason Sarah passed Organic Chemistry. She is the quick-wit friend in Sarah's group of besties. She's the voice of reason and the one to always crack a joke in a tense situation. She's the breath of fresh air we all need and rarely deserve, and Sarah is incredibly lucky to call her a friend.


Eric

Groomsman

Eric and Angel met through TJ. They regularly play video games and both love a good road trip. Eric is 5'8'' but aspires to be 5'10'' one day, which Angel hopes to see. He makes every visit an adventure and really enjoys spending time with Angel and Sarah in Dallas. Eric is a foodie, which Sarah loves, and he is a great dancer - so Angel always has the perfect partner.

Rachel

Bridesmaid

Oh lawd. What can Sarah say about Rachel? Whatever it is, it could never be enough. Rachel is Sarah's soulmate in life. These two are incredibly close and helped each other through the worst bits of law school. Don't worry though, they also saw each other through the happiest times. All signs point to these two being amazing friends for the rest of time and two of the best damn litigators you will ever meet.


Michael

Groomsman

Michael and Angel met in college, through Alex, at a game of Dungeons and Dragons. Mike loves DnD, but is happy to learn any game. He's a sweet friend, always ready to join a group food excursion, or just a quick run for boba tea. Mike has a great laugh, is wonderfully sarcastic, and a great story-teller (which is perfect for a group of friends that enjoy the extra details)!

Ashli

Bridesmaid

Ashli & Sarah both attended Baylor, so they obviously clicked immediately. They taught high school students together and spent way too many Saturdays at robotics competitions, eating tacos and sipping cold brew coffee. These two laugh at all the Harry Potter jokes, bake all the things, and share a deep love of sweet red wines.


Raul

Groomsman

Raul and Angel met in college while playing flag football. He was there when Angel had to explain (to Sarah) how he accidentally ripped a girl's shorts off during a game...yeah, that happened. Raul was the one who rushed Angel to the hospital during sophomore year, and Angel returned the favor the following year when Raul broke his nose during a game. Raul helped Sarah & Angel move from their apartment to their first home. Raul's been there for the big moments and will undoubtedly continue to be a phenomenal friend.

Megan

Bridesmaid

Meggo! She's the strongest of the bunch, even though she's the youngest. Megan's spirit and fiery nature drew Sarah to her immediately. They met in law school and have been through all the ups and downs that entails. These two are competition partners and ready to take on anyone in an argument. Megan's kind heart and fierce attitude are only two of the plethora of reasons why Sarah calls her a bestie.


Danny

Groomsman

Danny is one of Angel's great friends from high school. They met while playing backyard football and he was there when Angel dislocated another person's knee. They kept playing flag football through college and shared many laughs. Danny was the willing victim of many cooking adventures while these two learned to cook their freshman year of college. Danny is an avid Halo fan and took the time to teach Sarah how to play, too! Danny is a skilled engineer and used his mad skills to build Angel the perfect engagement present.

KC

Bridesmaid

This beautiful soul is Sarah's true North and another Baylor initiate. KC has the skill to cut to the root of a problem and provide a solution, which speaks directly to Sarah's internal compass. These two bonded over terrible roommates and the best late-night snack runs. Now they're planning to take over the world together, but, that's nothing new.


Tj

Groomsman

El ChinoJapones AKA Tj Gonzalez. Tj and Angel met in high school in a Computer Science class where they geeked around and built cool stuff. He was also adopted by the Gonzalez family after eating enough salsa to impress Angel's dad. Angel convinced Tj to move up to Arlington to attend college and participate in the endless sleepover that is now their life. Tj moved in with Angel and Raul and they did a lot of gaming, binge-watched Veronica Mars, and ate a ridiculous amount of spicy Korean ramen. TJ is a foodie and loves taste-testing Sarah's kitchen creations. These three are thick as thieves and have been friends for over a decade.

Bethany

Bridesmaid

Bethany is Sarah's most creative friend and the only reason she ever stepped foot in the Art Building at Baylor! She's a published artist and Sarah is insanely proud. Bethany's work ranges many mediums but always speaks to the heart. She is wonderfully talented, brilliant, and funny. Bethany helps Sarah see a picture from all sides and helped shape her understanding of art.


Elizabeth

Bridesmaid

Sarah & Elizabeth met in high school. Sarah was assigned as Lizzie's Senior Mentor and the rest is history! They've been friends for over a decade and these two have shared all kinds of great experiences. Elizabeth even turned the tables a few times and mentored Sarah through a few of life's rough patches. She's an amazing friend and Sarah loves her bundles!
