Maid of Honor
My sister for my whole life as told by my mother is my favorite sister as well as my only sister. I did want two brothers and two sisters before I had any siblings but I am glad God knew all I needed was you. When I am down, uncertain, confused, misguided, hurt or stuck you meet me right where I am at every single time. Azaria keeps me up to date with literally everything - sometimes I wonder if I would know what I would like and not like if it weren't for her. I love our relationship and the season of life we are in and everything that we are working towards. Azaria you are light, you are sound, you are wise and you help others to feel what they are feeling while guiding them beyond their feelings into new perspectives and next steps. Thank you for being you! You are gift, you carry beauty and help others look within to find their beauty as well.
Best Man
Alex and I have known each other since middle school. In 8th grade we really became close and to this day don’t go more than a couple days without a phone call. Alex known by his last name “House” is a special man due to his loyalty and dedication to his friends. House and I are very different; he is more calm while I am more expressive and I appreciate how we balance each other out. When we are with each other we gravitate towards the simple things in life and can just enjoy each others company while watching a ball game or just going for walk.
Maid of Honor
My girl, my sound board, my running partner, my sister. The one I call to literally be random and raw while I verbally process. Leticia and I met back in 2012 (though I am sure it was way before this) and we have been literally in the same circles since then. Over the last seven years we have gotten close and have truly become family. It has been a blessing that while we have been growing together so have our kids. I know that Leticia is not just by my side for this day but for life. Over the last two years she has helped me to grow, watched me struggle to let go of what was and shift into what now is and held me accountable to what God is saying/doing not just what I am feeling. We have prayed, contended and worshiped more than ever before and I am so grateful and appreciative more than I could ever say. Leticia you are one of a kind, you are gracious, you raise people up, you teach and counsel with wisdom and biblical truths and you are a reformer. Eyes have not seen and ears have yet heard what's behind this woman and the unlocking of her voice that is about to come forth.
Best Man
Zeke and I met at my 10th birthday party and have been brothers ever since; exactly 18 years and counting. When we are both around each other it’s nothing but jokes and love. Zeke got me into soccer and hockey, through that we have shared countless experiences together revolving around those sports . We operate as family and are strong; the loyalty we have for each other is rare and we are committed to our bond of brotherhood through every season of life.
Bridesmaid
I originally met Bit through knowing her sisters yet we became friends over the years because of our own connection. Bit is the friend that will not allow me to throw away my words. She hears what I am saying and looks for the deeper meaning. She also ask a ton of clarifying questions which I love because I am the same way. She often has felt what I didn't have the words to say and helped me to put language to what was going on internally. 2018-2021 we were able to really build out our sisterhood and go on our own journey of producing oil and burning for the kingdom in a way that has sharpened, challenged and matured both of our faith. In 2023 Elizabeth taught me how to fight for friendship in every season of life and how to be intentional in stewarding all relationships. This is a lesson I am still learning. With Bit and I just know that there is a lot of fire, a lot of random thoughts and there is also these beautiful pockets of silence and carefree moments. One thing I love the most is if we start ministering or praying clear your schedule because we aren't stopping until Holy Spirit says so. Bit you help bring order, correction, clarity and action everywhere you go. You are a blessing and a continued answered prayer for many.
Groomsman
The one and only David Lora. David and I knew of each other for years through church and would always say hi and talk about basketball every now and then but in the year 2020 we started to hang out outside of church. We were able to talk about deep things and it felt natural. I appreciate David’s comedic approach and he’s just a joy to be around. We have been there for each other through tough times and always can count on each other to show up when needed.
Bridesmaid
91 babies truly are the best! Becca lives with me in the space of all gas no brakes. I truly believe Becca is the first friend I made as an adult. There was a freedom that she walked in that I knew I was meant to live and walk in as well. When we are in the room together just know the volume is going up; personally, professionally and spiritually. If you are in need of hype women, call us. If you are in need of encouragement, prayer or a word, call us. If you are in need of a listening ear, call us. In our friendship Becca has always made room for me to be me, she's always down to try something new and remains consistent and unwavering in her love for people. Becca, you bring out the best in people, I have experienced it for myself and gotten to watch you do it with others! It was an honor to stand by your side at your wedding and I am excited that you are by my side for mine.
Groomsman
Sergio has meant so much to me due to that fact that we both have seen each other grow spiritually and can talk about our faith where we understand each other. We have challenged each other in a great way to develop and grow. Sergio and I became close in 2021 through men's ministry and church events. We are spiritual brothers and know “It’s Wartime” as Sergio says every time we get together. Our bond is strong and the foundation is kingdom based.
Jr. Bridesmaid
The big boss not the little one. Alessia is a feeler, a planner, a visionary and yet so carefree and fun. My little one who is a joy to be around always. Alessia thank you for always keeping me up to date and young. You are wise beyond your years and I am expectant for your future and all that you are going to do, see and experience.
Jr. Groomsman
Stepping into each other’s lives in winter 2022 was a major life change/chapter for both Jacob and me. Our bond is natural and a process. We both enjoy our guy time by just simply playing video games and being outside playing catch. God has placed each of us in each other's lives to learn and to grow. Jacob is on his way to doing amazing things and I am excited to witness it.
Jr. Bridesmaid
Destiny! My I can do anything, anywhere and accomplish things by any means necessary girl. You young one are so special. This girl is gifted and I am so honored to get to be a part of seeing you come into your identity, mature and grow. I love your honesty and that I can literally talk to you about anything.
Jr. Groomsman
Christian and I have a great bond and always like to debate over sports topics, especially how the Mets are better than the Yankees. I couldn’t ask for a better nephew. I love watching Christian’s games and know he has so much potential on and off the field. Christian is so gifted and only at 10 years old is well beyond his years.
Flower Child
The gift that I didn't know that I needed! On the night of my proposal, just an hour a part my niece, the precious little Bee was born. Just a little shy of one year later she is getting to walk down the aisle in my wedding and I am overjoyed. Brielle you have brought us so much joy and I love you so much.
Flower Girl
Three words to describe my niece Sofia is determined, sassy and bold. She is a fire cracker and displays it especially when I'm around. Sofia lets people know it for sure with her sassiness. She acts like the biggest person in the room and makes her presence known. She is significant to me and to have her in the wedding party brings a lot of joy.
Ring Bearer
One of the best young people that we know. Aiden, I have enjoyed watching you grow over the years and love the sweetness of your spirit and the gift of your smile.
