Karina & Damian
Wedding Party
Paula
Maid of Honor
Where to begin? This best friend of the bride is more like a soul sister. Paula has been the biggest support for Karina (and Damian) throughout the wedding planning process. She's the maid of honor most people dream of, and most of all "she's ready to paaaaarrrttyyy."
Valentina
Matron of Honor
Valentina and Karina met while working at the same company. Valentina worked in marketing and then touring, Karina worked in marketing and then booking. All that really means is that they're both the same level of crazy and have been to WAY too many concerts. Crazy loves crazy in this friendship, and they manage to keep each other sane.
Ralf
Best Man
Cousin and best friend of the groom. Ralf is the friend you can always count on, just as Damian has since the two were kids. He may not be the best at topgolf, but he will never say no to a dance off. Feel free to challenge him on the dance floor.
Jojo
Bridesmaid
Always the life of the party, Jojo and Karina met on tour. They've been to over 9 countries together (that's more than Karina and Damian!) It's only fitting that Jojo is by Karina's side on her biggest adventure yet! Fun fact: Karina's nickname for Jojo is "Goji" although neither really knows why.
Steve
Groomsman
Steve and Karina have been friends since they were five because Karina's mom, Alex, and Steve's mom, Miriam, are also best friends! and if you think Karina is loud wait till you meet Miriam! Steve's hobbies include basketball, traveling and never keeping his shirt on....but we love him anyway.
Nathalia
Bridesmaid
Fun Fact: Nathalia is the reason Karina and Damian ever even met! Nathalia is the one who convinced Damian to download the Tinder app and breakout of his shell. So Damian and Karina like to think of her as their personal cupid! Nathi is the friend you go to when you need a shot of tequila or a shoulder to lean on!
Juan Camilo
Groomsman
Juan Camilo, "Juanca", is the guy you call when you need financial advice (or when you need a partner in crime and subsequent alabye for the night you don't remember.) Fun Fact: He's Nathalia's husband! Fun Fact 2: He and Nathi were two of the three people Damian told when he knew he was going to propose!
Jackie
Bridesmaid
Jackie and her boyfriend Andres (groomsman) are always up for whatever and for that reason Karina, Damian, Jackie and Andres can always be found on double dates. Jackie and Damian used to work together at Citibank and has become an incredible friend to both Damian and Karina.
Andres
Groomsman
Andres and Damian have been in a Bromance almost as long as Karina and Damian's actual romance. Get those two together and they're (almost) too much to handle. One of the funniest people you'll ever meet, Andres is always ready to start the party. His superpower? A laugh that can be heard around the world (or at least from across the dancefloor.)
Celine
Bridesmaid
Celine and Karina met because Karina was a nanny for Celine's daughter, years later Celine is now more like a big sister to Karina. Need any travel recommendations, foodie tips, or want to chat about what the heck is going on in the world. Celine is your girl. Undeniably one of the smartest people in Karina's life and also an unbelievable friend.
Maria Fernanda "Mafe"
Bridesmaid
"There are some people in life that make you laugh a little louder, smile a little bigger, and live just a little bit better." This best friend of the bride is the most supportive and kind hearted friend anyone could ask for. Give her some wine and turn on good music and it's a party all night long!
Jonathan
Groomsman
Damian's younger brother (mom's side). Also the first person they call when literally ANYTHING breaks in the house. Don't worry, Karina always pays him with her homemade cheesecake (you can ask him- it's delicious) You'll probably find Jonathan at the bar or on the dance floor, either way he brings the party wherever he goes.
Jenna
Bridesmaid
Karina and Jenna have been friends for 10 years and have come a long way since their Ridgefield Carnival days. You can pretty much always find these two either ordering everything on the menu at Chit Chat diner, or absolutley crushing it at bowling. Either way, count on Jenna for a good time. Disclaimer: They are actually terrible at bowling and you should not challenge them.
Hannah
Bridesmaid
Karina and Hannah have been friends since Kindergarten! 20 years of friendship means lots of laughs, tears, games, trips upstate, macaroni and cheese, cupcakes and memories. Ask Hannah about how her and Karina rescued a dog....from Guatemala.
Gio
Groomsman
Damian's younger brother (Dad's side). Soft-spoken Gio is one of those people who when you finally get him to speak it's probably something dry and hysterical. Gio would probably rather be at a UMiami game than this wedding but hey...Saturdays are for the bro's right?
