"Welcome to the PARTY"
Kessy Nascimento
Matron of Honor
Cousins but she's actually my little sister. How could I not have one of the most well-intended, loving, and thoughtful people in my life take part of the lead in helping me make this the most meaningful time. Since diapers-- I trust her to pray for me when I need it the most<3
Nayara Jerez
Matron of Honor
First, one my very best friends. Second, my cousin. Has been there for me through my roughest patches, and was there for me to see the light through it all. My favorite partner in crime. I trust her to tell me what I don't want to hear, but at least she follows it with a beer <3

Bridesmaid
My first ride or die, forever-beer-pong-partner-ultimate-party-crasher-sunflower seeds-and-cigarettes-booger-and-poodle. I can honestly say that every moment we've ever had has turned into a great, and insane, story. But aside from all of the best times we've had, you have always been ready to have my back<3
Anastasia Melendez
Bridesmaid
My Greek Goddess best friend and sister. One of the most positive influences in my life. So incredibly lucky to have someone that went through the wild teenage years with me, and is still here to make sure that I am the best person I can be. There through it all, from boyfriends to husbands <3
Kimberly Parrotta
Bridesmaid
They do say that you can meet somebody tomorrow who has better intentions for you than someone you've known forever. By far one of my favorite people of all time. MVP of EXTRA spicy Bloody Mary's, don't hold back on the olives. Brought together by our bae's, held together by good vibes and brews <3
Vanessa Almeida
Bridesmaid
She's not just any sister-in-law, but the smartest, most kind-hearted, most likely to be the family doctor, most FABULOUS, sister-in-law there is. Thankful to have met your brother, not only for him and I, but because he led me to meet you. Thankful for your part in my life, for your friendship, for your guidance. Lifetime supply of your fave, feijoada, for you now <3
Maya Da Silva

How could I not have the funniest, most enthusiastic, little gal leading the way on my special day. The most vibrant of them all <3
