Wedding Party
Simon Cullen
Best Man
Simon and Jeff met in South Korea while on a mutual journey of self-discovery post college life. While teaching was neither in our blood, nor skill set, a close friendship developed that has persevered for over a decade later.
Jessica Lee
Maid of Honor
As Hanna's younger sis, Jessica is one of the people who would know Hanna best. An avid Cross Fit gym rat and baker, Jessica's physical strength matches her strong, independent, and outgoing personality, sprinkled with a great sense of humor and ability to tickle people with her jokes. From cheering for Hanna at her high school dance competitions to sharing sisterly secrets and advice and adventuring to cool places like the Grand Tetons and Sequoia National Park (in a RV!), Jessica has been Hanna's confidante, and will continue to support Hanna as her maid of honor.
Steve Holcomb
Groomsman
From the moment Jeff asked Steve to split the cab fare at the end of the night they first met, to the crazy adventures on a South Korean Island, to the world wide travels from the Philippines to DC, Jeff and Steve have consistently shared both friendship and stories alike.
Lisa Wang
Bridesmaid
Lisa and Hanna met in P.E. class in middle school, and a friendship was formed that continued into high school where they would hang out during lunch time and bond during dance team practices and competitions. Through many life transitions and ups and downs, that friendship has endured and continues. Lisa, with her kind, patient, and encouraging spirit, shares Hanna's sense of humor and unhealthy addiction to boba drinks.
Andrew Balderama
Groomsman
It wasn’t long after Andrew’s arrival in Portland that he decided to take a crack at rock climbing, where he met Jeff. From their mutual love of watching sports to galavanting through the woods at camping adventures, Andrew has been a solid bedrock that Jeff has relied on for sound advice to inadvisable adventures.
Julie Yi
Bridesmaid
Julie joined the high school dance team in the same year that Hanna did, and from there, a close friendship formed that lasted for over almost two decades. Together, they celebrated many milestones and traveled to Oahu, Chicago, Vegas, and Miami. Julie's sassy attitude, infectious laughter, and positive outlook makes her a great friend and hype woman, and you'll probably find her on a dance floor once the hip-hop music drops.
Erik Oines
Groomsman
Erik has been through the ups and downs with Jeff, yet always a reasonable voice. Whether it was about life choices or climbing decisions, Erik has always been a voice of reason and someone Jeff as relied on him to check him on his crazy thoughts!
Amy Chang
Bridesmaid
Through their high school dance team experience, Amy and Hanna became friends, and after graduating high school, Amy and Hanna continued their hangouts over sushi and Korean food, talking about all sorts of subjects including life updates, religion, and social justice. Amy is an ultimate hype woman and is very passionate, compassionate, and steadfast. She can also bust some serious dance moves, so expect to see her on the dancefloor.
Beth Payne
Groomswoman
The amount of arguments Jeff and Beth have engaged on would make you think that they must share a parental figure. But no matter how heated or jovial the conversation has been, Beth has grown into a little sister for Jeff.
Christine Huang
Bridesmaid
One fateful summer, Christine ended up subletting a room in the apartment where Hanna was living in while they were students at U.C. San Diego. Although it was a short time of living together, a bond was forged that lasted beyond their college years. Though Christine lives in the Bay Area and Hanna lives in L.A., they continue to maintain a great friendship through phone calls and hangouts in each other's city. With her outgoing, empathetic, and fun personality, Christine has a penchant for being a great communicator and listener. Through their mutual love for music and wanderlust, Christine and Hanna share fun memories of travelling in Peru, hanging out in Hawaii, and seeing amazing artists in various venues.
