Jairo & Marlena's Wedding
Wedding Party
Karissa Hudson
Maid of Honor
Karissa is my younger sister and also one of my closest friends (now) and I am proud to call her my maid of honor! Growing up we weren't close because of our age gap but as we both became adults we grew our bond and developed an amazing relationship! We get along (most of the time), but I love her and wouldn't trade her for the world.
Madison (Madi) Brown
Bridesmaid
Madi and I met in our Sorority Alpha Chi Omega in college and bonded over having similar life experiences and were each other's support system and rocks during some of the more challenging years of our lives. I was a bridesmaid in her wedding and I am excited for her to be one now in mine!
Madeline (Maddie) Aguilera
Bridesmaid
Maddie is one of my oldest friends and has grown up like a sister to me. We met when we were in 6th grade and quickly became best friends. I transferred schools so I could go to middle school with her in 7th grade. We grew up doing everything together and have too many great memories to count. I was a bridesmaid in her wedding recently and can't wait for her to be in mine!
Gabbi Minassian
Bridesmaid
Gabbi and I met in our sorority Alpha Chi Omega in college and got really close later on freshman year and sophomore year! Gabbi was always the person I could count on to have a good time whether that was tailgating at football games, going to a party, or taking trips to Michaels for art supplies. She is my funny, stylish, life of the party!
Julia Beaty
Bridesmaid
Julia and I met freshman year of high school in P.E. class. Julia and I clicked right away so I introduced her to Maddie and the rest of our friend groups quickly became mutual friends. We have shared years of life experiences and memories together since then and I look forward to making many more with our families.
Daniel (Dani) Maldonado
Best Man
Dani and I met 11 years ago, our junior year in high school. He and I bonded instantly. Coming from the same background and hometown in Mexico, we had many of the same interests in music, food, culture, etc. One day my car broke down while going to guitar lessons and I needed someone to jump start my car. I barely knew Dani, but I had his phone number so I gave him a call. Without question he came to my aid and since then has been my closest friend.
Oscar Barron
Groomsman
Oscar is my older brother and closest sibling to me in age. Growing up we spent a lot of time together and with my other brothers. He and I used to listen to all different kinds of music driving around our town. He has been a friend, a brother, and a coworker. He and all of my older brothers heavily influenced my wide taste in music and all of the aspects of my personality. He is one of the funniest people I know and always manages to make me laugh. Even though we fought when we were kids, he is one of my favorite people to be around. We now live apart but when he comes to visit we always have a great time.
Diego Avellaneda
Groomsman
Diego and I have been friends since junior year in high school. He has a great sense of humor and a fun personality. He lights up any room he steps into. He's a very talented videographer and dancer. He was my first riding buddy when we wanted to take our motorcycles out, and is the first person I call when I want to go to "underground" house (music) parties. He is overall a fun person to be around and a great friend.
Cole (Chase) Hudson
Groomsman
Chase... where to start.. When I met Chase he was 13 years old, as short as Karissa, wore tall Nike socks, and basketball shorts all the time. Now a days he looks a little different (wayyyy taller than karissa) and has developed a much better sense of style! He is a fun person to be around and is full of energy. I watched Chase grow into the Rockstar he is today, and look forward to being his brother in law.
Rodolfo (Chapi) Aguilar
Groomsman
Rodolfo, AKA "Chapi", is a friend that you never remember how or when you met, but has always been there. He is a loyal friend, and is the "caregiver" in our group, oftentimes shy and quiet, but around his friends he has a quick fire humor and sarcasm that comes out. He is a great friend who we are all happy to have around!
Nasli Sajani Barron
Flower Girl
Meet our niece and sweet little flower girl Nasli! She is 2 years old and full of joy and laughter! She loves driving her pink toddler ATV, playing with her Pug, and spending time with her cousins. She is a total daddies girl and is the first baby girl to be born into our family, so naturally we spoil her rotten.
