Wedding Crew

Meet our wedding crew that will be part of our special day and do life with us in this new journey!

Ivanna H.

Matron of Honor

Where do I begin? Ivanna and I met 12 years ago in our local church. I was new and she kindly introduced herself to me with her green contacts (hahaha). After that we began a solid friendship and have shared many moments, pretty and ugly. I can't count the many times she has been there for me and has lifted me up with her words of wisdom and prayers. I am blessed to call her more than my best friend, my sister. I was her Maid of Honor 4 years ago and now I am honored to have her as mine!


Brian H.

Man of Honor

Brian and I met 13 years ago. He came to our local church and I remember having a conversation with him because I had broken my leg and he asked me what happened. After that we had a common friend that was his cousin and we connected instantly and had many sleepovers and fun memories together. From there, we grew into a strong friendship and 13 years later through many life struggles, he is now my brother! 4 years ago I was his best man and now I am honored that he will be my Man of honor.

Nathalie M.

Bridesmaid

Nathalie is one of my greatest friends and sister in law! She married my brother 7 years ago and ever since then we have developed a great friendship. We have shared many beautiful moments together and she has been there for me in some of the hardest challenges of my life. I always look forward to having a good laugh with her and endless talking! I am overjoyed that she will be my bridesmaid.


Julio T.

Best Man

Oh little Julio, where do I start? Julio and I met 6 years ago in our local church. He was new to the country and since we lived near each other, we became friends through endless talks. I noticed how mature he was even though I was 5 years older than him, it felt the opposite! He has been with me through some low parts in my life and never gave his back to me. You have gone from just being a friend, to now my little brother that will walk as my best man.

Nazli C.

Bridesmaid

Nazli!!! Nazli and I connected in our youth camp in 2008. We shared the same room and we became friends right away. I can always count on her to give me words of wisdom and make me laugh. She has been a friend that I can count on for many years. We share countless memories, from sleepovers to beach days to birthdays, camp and Christmas parties. I was her bridesmaid 3 years and now I am so excited to call her my bridesmaid!


Jeffrey M.

Groomsman

Jeffrey is essential to both of our lives. He is Grace's brother and also my good friend for many years! I remember Jeffrey coming into church 12 years ago with a smile. We connected through our youth group and began to hang out all of the time. I can always count on Jeffrey to have a good talk and make a funny joke. Seeing him grow as a friend, husband and family orientated man, I truly admire him. I am lucky to call him my future brother in law and groomsman!

Melissa V.

Bridesmaid

Mel, Mel, Mel! Where do I start? Melissa and I have been friends for so many years!! We became friends through our youth group in church when we were teenagers. We share countless memories together! Melissa has shown herself to be such a loyal and caring friend. I am so grateful for her life and friendship. She is not afraid to keep it real with me. 3 years ago, I was in a horrible work environment and she motivated me and opened the door for me to now work in the school where I am currently in. I will never forget this. I am so thankful to have a childhood friend that I can now call my bridesmaid.


Adonis Z.

Groomsman

Adonis is Grace's nephew and one of my childhood friends! Grace considers him like a brother because they grew up together. Adonis came into church in 2008 with Grace and Jeffrey. I remember Adonis always being true to himself, he never pretended to be someone else. I've seen him through some hardships and he has never given up. Being the youngest amongst us, he always knew how to make us laugh. He aspires to do great things in life and I am proud to call him my future brother in law and groomsman.

Paloma S.

Bridesmaid

Paloma and I have seen each other grow for many years in our local church. It wasn't until 4 years ago where I went through a hard time and she was there for me with her patient self and words of encouragement. We connected and became closer friends! Paloma and I have travelled to France and talk to each other frequently. I can always count on her to give me reassurance and encouragement. Last year I was her bridesmaid and I am excited to call her my bridesmaid!

I am honored to have such a good friend be my bridesmaid.


Raul P.

Groomsman

Raul and I met a few years in our local church. He was one of the youth during that time. I saw how humble and hardworking he was and that motivated me to take him under my wing and get to know him better as a person and a friend. I was sad when he left to college but when he came back, he showed himself to be a mature man of God. I have always seen him as my little brother. Funny story is that he got married first than me and that makes me super proud of him. I’m proud to have been his groomsman and excited he gets to be mine!
