Wedding Party
Gloria Castellanos
Maid of Honor
My bestie ride or die Gloria! She is the big sister I never had!! She is hilarious, hard working, kind and loves the Lord!! Her love is so genuine that when I go through stuff good or bad she feels it too and is there for me to celebrate or cheer me up. She has been there for me in sickness and in health and knows all my deepest secrets…so if you ever see any tabloids or gossip of me on TMZ Gloria is the one that leaked them!
Marielena Lugo
Matron of Honor
My OG bestie looking over her desk in middle school class I saw a “Hanson” book and she looked over my desk and saw a Gwen Stefani photo that we traded. Since then we built a friendship that is so funny because we are so different but yet we always get laugh attacks for random things! We have seen each other grow in different seasons of our lives from seeing her beautiful baby come to this world to her seeing the inception of my business baby come to life! Even though sometimes she wants to beat me up, I remember we both don’t have sisters but thank goodness we both have God because I love her like the sister that I never had.
Francis Bertrand
Bridesman
Met my Bridesman 13 years ago at a private RBD concert. I thought he was conceited but as soon as he looked at me and said HELLO it was friendship love at first sight! Since then, we have collaborated on so many projects…he has photographed so many celebrities dressed in GLAUDI. But the most important thing is he has a big humble heart and we have dreamed together and it's so great to see our dreams come true!
Lorraine D’Alessio
Bridesmaid
My beautiful Bestie we met while we were both speaking on a women’s empowerment zoom event. Lorraine and I had the same point of views and we gave all the glory to God for our success! When we first met each other it was an instant friendship and love for one another and I’m so happy! Since then we have been supportive of each others dreams and goals with our faith in the center of it all! I’m so glad I now have an amazing friend who is always ready for a fashion adventure that supports my shows by modeling and being my lawyer across the globe!
Rosie Rivera
Bridesmaid
I love Rosie so much! She is genuine, kind, hilarious and she brings out the best in me. I love that she believes in my work and also gives me the best relationship advice. But the best part is through time we have prayed for our dreams and goals and have been there for one another to see them come to life! She inspires me to always put my faith in God and once I’m married to JD to become a supportive and loving wife like how she is with her husband.
Jessica Hernandez
Bridesmaid
Jessica is the sister that I never had. My cousin and I are complete opposite, but we are hilarious together. We grew up together since we were babies…she looks older but I’m actually the oldest one by one year. No matter what happens in life, Jessica is always there for me and I am as well. When my Dad passed away she was there by my side to see him one last time and I will never forget that moment. Her son Julian is the biggest blessing in my life! When my heart was broken he was born on Christmas Day! That was the best present ever and I’m so happy through all seasons we are now celebrating love and happiness!
Bianca Hernandez
Bridesmaid
I prayed for God to bring my little brother a Christian wife that is a nerd and fun like him and God answered my prayers. Bianca has been an incredible sister in law and an amazingly good friend. She even brought my little brother Ever and I even closer!
Danielle Leon
Bridesmaid
My High school Bestie Danielle and I have had the funniest memories together. I love her grandparents so much! My best memory of Danielle is us in history class always getting in trouble for talking too much. Even though when we were separated across the room we were still laughing so much that our teacher had no choice but sit us back together! I love Danielle, we try to be wild together back then we turned her room into a nightclub with lights and took photos like we went out and we didn’t go anywhere hahaha! Last thing I catched the bouquet at her wedding 13 years ago and it’s about damn time that bouquet worked I’m finally getting married!
Timothy Simkins
Best Man
I’ve known Tim since we met at a church function when I was just 13 years old. We’ve been through thick and thin the last 25 years. Tim is one of my few confidants and I trust him with my life. He’s helped me get through so many hard times and he’s always been there to support me. We’re both God fearing men and I love him like a brother!
Justin Waller
Groomsman
Justin helped me get a job at an Italian restaurant back in 2012 and stepped up for me when my brother suddenly passed away. We don’t get to see each other as often as we’d like…but I know that Justin always has my back. He has a big heart and has a knack for breaking me out of my shell.
Curtis Bianco
Groomsman
Curtis and I quickly became good friends at the movie theaters back in 2009. We had a lot of common interests which included pro wrestling. We hung out quite frequently and watched a lot of movies and sports. Despite my stint in the Navy…we’ve remained good friends for over a decade.
Hunter Richardson
Groomsman
My first nephew Hunter was born in 2007, but didn’t officially meet him until I moved back home in May of 2008. I was in awe of being an uncle and I loved it. Hunter didn’t stay little very long…he outgrew me when he became a teenager a few years ago. Hunter is a good kid and he’s matured a lot.
Josue Jimenez
Groomsman
Josh was the very first family member that I had the privilege to meet. I remember being so nervous after knocking on Johana’s door for our 2nd or 3rd date….but Josh was super chill. Since then, he’s been like a cousin that was separated at birth. We have a lot of the same interests and we can talk about almost anything. Love my fellow energy fiend haha
Ever Hernandez
Groomsman
Kinda crazy how well Ever and I get along. He’s always been very cool and welcoming. He’s a huge nerd like me and we both like Marvel, Star Wars, LOTR and pro wrestling. Not only is Ever a good brother…he’s also a great husband and wonderful dog dad. I’m looking forward to having Ever as a Cuñada (brother in law).
Edwin Hernandez
Groomsman
When I first started dating Johana she told me she had 2 brothers and was immediately intimidated. After a couple months, Edwin became quite fond of me and made me feel apart of the family. Before I popped the big question…I sat down with the whole family and Edwin was the first person to give me a blessing. Edwin personifies what a good man should be.
