Holly & Zane
Wedding Party
Holly Griffith
Bride
I'm definitely one to never sit still so when you put me and marriage together i still have to do a double take. Since i was a little girl ive always dreamed of the man i would marry, would he be tall? Would he be handsome? Will he be considerate or an push over? I mean my brain spun around and around on the never ending marriage coaster. I was, simply put, addicted to my future marriage. It wasn't until I got older I started realizing, hey, this is real and the man you choose to be with is death do us part. Finding that out meant probably not gonna get married, at least not at the rate I was going I sucked at relationships. I gave up said you know what I'm gonna just live for me and my kids. Then God sent Zane and my marriage coaster began again. Welcome to my Future Mr. Nunez.
Zane Nunez
Groom
Growing up the thought of marriage was never on my mind. From what I thought I was never going to get married, and the same went for my sister. As I got older and met my niece realized I wanted a family too. See, God laid out this plan for my future that I was unaware of, I walked into this little Italian restaurant and little did I know my future wife would be my server. As obstacles and challenges were laid out before us we started taking them head on and never stopped. After seeing my sister marry, I knew what I was meant to do. God gifted me the wife I never thought I would have and make me a step father to two wonderful kids. With our love and strength in God we will power through the trials and tribulations as one as a family. I love you Holly and our forever is just starting.
Johnathan Getner
Best Man
Great guy right here, 5th grade Zane and Johnathan met. This duo was inseparable, they pretty much lived at each others houses. That was until Getner started going to some fancy school, Zane couldn't follow his buddy. But as adults, the friendship continues, we try so hard to make Getner time. Johnathan visits Zane's family in New Mexico when He visits his family. And we visit Johnathan when we go to Reno (that's where Getner landed). Having a childhood friend so close makes going to Reno the best I love seeing Zane with his close buddies. We are so happy to have such a happy and intelligent individual as Zanes Best Man. Welcome to the party bro.
Alexa Griffith
Maid of Honor
Where do I start, not only is this woman married to my crazy awesome brother, but she loves him so hard it makes me feel secure that my loving family is being takin care of in a way only Alexa can provide. She's been there through so many troubles in our families and she's still solid as a rock. Over and over Alexa has protected, nurtured, directed, and taught my Nephews, Brothers, Mom, Dad, and now Baby Niece how the love of a family should be by each others side. I absolutely cant wait for baby Bridge to get older and truly understand how cool of a mom she has and I'm so blessed to call her my Sister n Law. I know Alexa will make an awesome Maid of Honor because I know she wont let that glass go empty ;)
Brooke Humbers
Matron of Honor
Growing up I was lucky enough to meet this little one right here. My Brookey, oh my gosh I loved watching her when she was little. I always had so much fun with little Brookey and Brandon my Sister Cindy's kids' they loved being outside and being goofy, weren't much trouble really so it was easy being around them. Now she's all grown up and living her best life so far, about to start nursing school! Like, hello!! that's my niece! She never held my past against me, she always has shown me such love that I couldn't imagine my special day without her right by my side. If I'm in a crisis on my wedding day or week of I know Brookey will be my calm to my storm, she's done it before and she would do it again in a heart beat. Thank you for saying yes to be my Matron of Honor I Love You Girl!
Andrew Bucknam
Groomsman
Thats my boii, Zane says as I ask him about Andrew. Zane and Andrew started hanging out in the after school program in high school. Shortly after, their families started hanging out together. Now all adults they still tend to make time for each other. I think its so sweet how people can make connections in life that last a lifetime. Here we are Andrew will be standing next to his boii on his wedding day, and it will probably be one of the happiest days of their lives as their bond strengthens. When I asked Zane who he wanted as a groomsmen he mentioned Andrew first so id say hes a pretty big deal. I just hope during the wedding Mr. Andrew will be able to bottle up some of that awesomeness and leave some for the rest of us. It'll be a blast having our buddy with us for the weekend.
Dalton Humbers
Groomsman
Meet Dalton, he's my beautiful nieces husband that Zane just loves. Dalton is so cool, he literally can say nothing and make u laugh, I don't know how he does it but it happens. The first time Zane and Dalton met it felt like we were watching Step Brothers with Will Ferrell and John Reilly. They clicked beyond belief, that we had to plan a trip to Disney. That trip was one of our relationship highlights and Brooke and Dalton will forever be our couple vacationers. To have Zane want Dalton as one of his groomsmen was super cool for me, it shows me that Zane loves and accepts my family and it makes me feel happy to know that he will have a good man like Dalton standing next to him and giving him advice. Thank you Dalton for loving my man and being there for him.
Jacob Martinez
Groomsman
Zane met Jacob through Getner (Zanes best man) they enjoyed doing everything together from raising their pit bulls to some gardening in-between work shifts. Right out of high school they were roommates for half a year so they had all the time in the world to enjoy being on their own. They grew a bond nobody can stand in the way of. Zane says Jacob is one the most nicest and caring friends anyone could ask for, he would give his last dollars to anyone who needs it. Being a new friend to Jacob myself i know that as the years go by we will become close too. I'm proud to have a new friend like Jacob stand next to Zane as a groomsmen. The wedding weekend will be hit having him there, he always seems to put a smile on our faces. Thanks buddy!!
Stephanie Schaffner
Bridesmaid
Oh boy, Stephanie has the heart of Jesus I swear her kind and caring soul gives off so much love. How could anyone not want her around. I've never known someone in life to have gone through so much hurt, Yet still stand up and look at it in a positive way. And she's never changed since grade school, Jessica, Steph, and I hung pretty tough in and out of school. She's seriously a girl you want in your corner rooting you on. Having Stephanie as my bridesmaid completes the ladies I have standing next to me as I say I do. If I need a tissue to wipe away a tear, someone to hold back my hair, a lady to untuck the dress caught in my under ware, I know one of these ladies will be there to save the day. Thank you for sticking with me through all these years, your truly a love worth having.
Jessica Burkhardt
Bridesmaid
Where do I start, Jessica is the God given sister from another mister. We have been friends since 1st grade, she has seen my darkest moments and never once left my side. She's always been a phone call away and no matter how long we go not talking because of life, we have always reconnected. We are total lifers and still have so many memories to make. Our daughters have yet to grow a bond like ours when we were their ages but only time will tell. I couldn't imagine having the best day of my life without my girl Jessica there to keep me grounded. I know that day will bring out the worry in me like no ones seen yet but she's got my every emotion down to a tee. If I'm feelin a type of way I can count on my bridesmaid Jessica to be there for me to turn it around. I love you girl.
Jenny Flowers
Bridesmaid
What can I say about this Godsend right here. Our little town of Yerington has this amazing bar called Wagon Wheel it's of course better then your typical bar food, so we eat there often and one day we walk in and one of Zane's coworkers is sitting at the bar with a drink waiting for his food. Little did I know I was about to meet my Yerington bestie, Jenny, she walks in and first thing I noticed is she's absolutely gorgeous!!! Jenny is also one of the SWEETEST people you will ever have the pleasure of knowing. I couldn't imagine my time here without her, our boys (big and little) love each other and Emma her daughter just adores Marhya and doesn't leave her side. I just had to reserve a spot for Jenny as my bridesmaid, my wedding just wouldn't be the same without her. Thank You Girl!!
Rick Griffith
Father of the Bride
God definitely spent some time on putting this guy for my daddy on earth. Not only has he always been there for even when I didn't deserve it, but he's a great friend to others, helps people when they need it, the best grandpa. This man always has the right advice, he has never steered me wrong and I'm so grateful for him to be involved in my life. If you only have one phone call to make you can guarantee he will always answer the phone. My dad is thoughtful and yes most the time he can be a smartass but that's apart of who he is and I love that about him. Ill never forget the day I decided to move out of state that was the first time I seen him cry. Thank you for showing me you love me and never letting me forget it. I cant wait to have you walk me down the aisle daddy I love you.
Theresa Griffith
Mother of the Bride
My mom on the left is Theresa Griffith, she's a powerhouse of strength. She has been through so much in her life and she still has time for others. Any time someone in the family falls, she has always been there to help pick them up. My mom on the right is Debra Griffith, she's probably the sweetest person you could ever meet. I've witnessed the power God has bestowed in for her faithfulness and seen her prayers come true. These women make up who I am and I'm so grateful to have had them raise me together, its like I get the best of so many worlds and I'm so grateful. Jeannie Griffith isn't pictured here but she is with my dad and she's takin care of me by taking care of my daddy. I feel honored to have three wonderful women to comfort me on my wedding day I love you all so dearly.
Joe Nunez
Father of the Groom
Joe is such an amazing dad to Zane. He's creative, polite, hard working, not once have I seen him lose his temper. He's always got a positive thing to say. If there's a project that needs done he's your man to get the job done and I'm so happy Zane took after his daddy in that area. Joe is a super loving man that spends his time volunteering and helping out his community of friends and family. He's retired and just enjoying life with Zane's beautiful mommy. Im excited to be welcomed as his daughter in law and I appreciate him for showing Zane how to be a good and loving strong man. Thank You Joe for all you do you are AMAZING!
Erica Nunez
Mother of the Groom
Mommy to the love of my life, Zane is such a mommas boy and I will forever love that about him. If a man takes care of his momma, he will for sure make sure his wife is good. That's a character I cherish the most, out of the many his mom has taught him. Erica is an awesome, loving, caring person, that at probably all times will be brutally honest. We need people like Erica around our kids and in our life guiding us for our future decisions, if we wanna make it in this world. I'm so blessed to be gaining Erica as my mother-in-law. Not only is she a force to be reckoned with but she's thoughtful in the most loving ways, literally a card for every season. I need to be reminded of little things like a card for every season, to keep the soul in the loving arms of my family.
Marhya Tejeda
Flower Girl
My mini me, my Rah Rah is like me in soo many ways. She's smart, she retains information like a computer, she knows what's going on without you having to explain anything to her. She loves to read, loves Jesus and she's a daddies girl but that's okay, me too and I wouldn't want it any other way. She's witty, loves kids, and she's tough, like super tough. She listens, yeah she has a mouth on her but with the way the world is I'd like to keep it that way. She's good at learning how to cook and I cant wait for her to start driving, I wonder where her adventures will take her. I'm super excited to show her an option for her wedding day, who knows she might want a small wedding she likes simple. Love you baby girl may your dreams come true no matter what they are. Ill forever be there for you.
Pastor Chuck
Officiant
When I first met Pastor Chuck and Mrs. Lynda at Calvary Chapel they didn't care that I looked as if I hadn't slept in days, or about the past I burdened on myself. They welcomed me as I sat in the front row of church begging for direction, pointing at me during sermons making me feel as if I belonged. As I went back and forth from the light to the darkness they never gave up on me and remembered me, surprisingly. After months of not showing up for church I was in a car accident, I wasn't injured badly but my friend was, so I stayed in Vegas for almost 2 months with him while he recovered. Not only did this wonderful power couple come visit me and pray for us, they also brought others to pray over my friend and helped us with some bills. What a blessing it is to have Pastor Chuck marry us.
Elyjah Henn
Ring Bearer
This handsome little dude is my son Ely, he's got such a thoughtful and caring soul. What a gift from God to have this little man in my life. He can definitely keep me on my toes but that's my own problem if I cant keep up. He so special, I feel like when he gets older he's gonna do something in life for Jesus. His love for God is something I'm so grateful and some prayers I hear him say are too grown for him to come with on his own I believe the holy spirit is strong with this one. He teaches me to be a better person every day and reminds me of forgiveness when I forget. It softens my heart to know that he will be walking down the aisle to give us our rings as we embark on a powerful future of building and creating memories. My son is irreplaceable and I'm so proud of him. I love you Ely.
Tracie
Wedding Planner
Just when I started freaking out about how I was gonna make my dreams come true with this wedding I saw a post about a beautiful venue on Facebook. Little did I know that post would be the start of an amazing wedding relationship. I feel so incredibly blessed to have had discernment on choosing Tracie. She's already had the opportunity to calm my nerves and I'm so confident that if I have any concerns about the wedding that she will handle them efficiently and with care. I haven't even met her in person yet and I already recommended her services Thank you Tracie for helping my vision come into play. I cant wait to see the finished product and marry the man of my dreams.
Demi Judd
Day of Coordinator
I'm sorry but Demi is my favorite cousin, there I said it yep she totally is. Since we were little girls when we get together we just don't let anyone else get a word in. I look up to her so much she's amazing she's got her associate's degree in theology, she's been to I think 5 or 6 countries maybe more doing Gods work speaking of Jesus. She just got her license to be a realtor, and she's about to be 28, has a new baby and an older boy, oh yeah she speaks 4 languages. I need Demi as my Day of Coordinator she's always told me the truth whether its something I wanted to hear or not. I believe she has my best interest at heart and I need that for my special day, and just for my life in general. I love you Demi so much your an angel sent to remind us its possible, whatever it is its possible.
