Wedding Party

Jennifer Ramirez

Bride

I can’t believe the big day is almost here. I want to say thank you to Michael for coming into my life and loving me unconditionally. Showing me that love was always in the books for me. I couldn’t see my self with anyone else other than Michael. He balances us out, he’s always the calm to the storm and I appreciate him for that. I appreciate everything he does for me and his family day in and day out. I can’t wait to marry my best friend and finally get to call him my husband. So let’s get ready to celebrate! Love, The Bride To Be

Logan Xavier Martinez

Ring Bearer

Hi I’m Logan Xavier Martinez. And I’m so excited to be a part of my dadas and mamas special day. I promise I won’t lose the ring. Let’s get ready to dance the night away!

David Martinez

Best Man

Hello there. My name is David Martinez, little big brother to Michael, brother in law to Jennifer, Uncle to Logan, lord of the seven kingdoms and protector of the realm. *GoT fan obviously. Well then, when I first heard that my brother wanted to get married, my initial thought was “suckerrr” lol but I had to give Jennifer credit, being no small feat to get Mike out of his comfort zone to plan the proposal and everything that came after. And now here we are, couple of years and a nephew later. I’m happy and grateful for Michael and Jennifer finding each other in this crazy world. So my final thoughts are “It’s about time! Let’s party”

Priscilla Magana

Matron of Honor

I will never forget the day I had people come up to me at Home Depot saying “there’s a Cashier that looks just like you go check” and being the chismosa I am I walked over I looked around I did not see anyone that looked like me but I did see this beautiful girl then I realized it was Jenn “who looked like me” not till we were in the same department did we start talking… we hit it off! it was like we had been friends forever! From breaking EVERY rule in the book to get our job done to having customers yell at us because they had mistaken us… All I thought was “Damn this girl strong Damn Hulk!” changed her name on my phone to BFF Hulk and it’s never changed since. I’ll never forget the night that we went out for Thai, Jayro and I had gave her the news, we chose her to be our son’s godmother she was so happy I think she even had tears… Since then I have been able to be by her side through so many amazing milestones, including becoming a mother and now having the honor of being her Matron of Honor on such a special day. Can’t wait to see what more great memories we create! Love you Jenn!

Amanda Harnen

Maid of Honor

Jennifer and I have known each other basically our whole lives. So naturally with a long standing relationship like that, there are so many stories to share it is hard to think of just one. So instead I will share that it has been a beautiful thing watching my friend blossom into this amazing, kind, and strong woman that we see today. It is a honor to stand by her side while she embarks on this new journey in life. And I can’t wait to see this queen in her banging dress! Xo, Amanda

Nicole Martinez

Bridesmaid

Hello! I’m Nicole , I’ve known Jennifer since our days at Janson Elementary school. We have definitely been through a lot together throughout the years; from walking home from school as kids, to learning how to drive, surviving our 20s, to now navigating parenthood. I even have the honor of being Logan’s godmother. After Jenn and Mike met, it was easy to see that we would end up here. In fact, I can’t imagine anyone else to be her one and only. I’m extremely proud of what you both have accomplished and I can’t wait to see what’s next for the Martinez family. I wish you many many blessings and a lifetime of happiness. Love you guys.

It took me many drafts to get this short paragraph written because there’s isn’t many words that can truly capture the essence of my friendship with Jenn. She has been in my life for over 15 years always sharing the triumphs and of course the downfalls that life sometimes brings. Jenn is the type of person who is always happy for the wins of others and will always be present at important milestones for someone else, because she knows how much it means. Today, I am honored to be standing with her in such an important milestone for her. I’ve watched Jenn transform from the young girl I once knew to the amazing woman she is today, and I am happy she has found her match with Mike. From the time that Mike and her met she has radiated with happiness that only true love can bring, this makes me truly happy for her. Let’s toast for their everlasting happiness, may God bless them with many years filled of love, patience, and blessings! Xoxo Yesenia

Bridesmaid

I recall seeing Jenn walk down the halls with her long hair, and infectious smile freshman year of high school. We both share the same birthday, and became pisces sisters. One beach day invitation turned into a long friendship of ups and downs, laughs and tears, love and loss. I experienced many firsts with Jenn, from her first Friendsgiving, her first club at 18, and her first Michelada. Jenn helped me meet my special someone and was a bridesmaid at our wedding. My fondest memory of Jenn is forever engrained in time, we bonded over our shared love for dance that spanned into many nights of perreo over several years. Looking back, Jenn made growing up into a young woman a collective experience, because I felt we figured out womanhood together. I have been able to see Jenn through many of her milestones and am grateful to witness her marry the love of her life.

The first time I met Jenn was at Home Depot always smiling full of joy, and happiness. I have seen first hand how beautiful Jenn is as a individual my family and hers have been together thru the good times and not so good. But that’s how I know Jenn is a amazing friend because no matter what circumstance she is there. As time went by I felt like I was her Brother in some way. So when Cilla told me let’s go to Depot so you can see who Jenn is dating. I seen him mixing paint and we said hi to each other. And I knew he was a good guy. And we’ll he was attractive. But The first time I can remember hanging out with Mike. I was still some what hesitant in opening up to him. I didn’t know him, know him and since I looked at Jen as my lil sister so it was only natural that my guard was up. But I remember hanging out with Mike at a bar at the art district and we just hit it off talking about lol of course the Home Depot life, and sports and how far we are so far apart in our sports team. Sometimes i just stand back and observe and see how Mike is with Logan and Jenn and just admire how tentative, loving, and caring he is to his family. But the more and more I get to know him, I know my sister is in good hands and that he will take care of her, support her, love her and be the best partner, father to Logan and Now Husband to my little sister. Sorry Ronnie but she is my lil sister too! But to wrap this up I could not be more happy for both Jenn and Mike in there special day!
