Kristianna & Samuel
Wedding Party
Cierra Richardson
Matron of Honor
Kristianna and Cierra, as you all know, have known each other ever since they were one fertilized egg, split into two. The relationship these two share is unique and special. There is not enough words that can describe what Cierras friendship means to Kristianna. The very fact that they are so much alike, but very much different, is the reason they are so close and have a bond link none other. Fun (weird?) fact: They shared a bed all the way through high school, even when they didn't have to, Haha. They both wouldn't have had it any other way. Cierra was the first family member to meet Sam, many years ago. She instantly saw why Kristianna cherished their friendship so much. She is undoubtedly very special to the couple, and cant wait to have her by our side as we say "I Do"
Vivienne Reign
Matron of Honor
Vivienne and Kristianna have known each other for 9 years. Vivienne hired Kristianna in August 2012. Over the next couple years it wasn't only businesses they were growing together, but their friendship. Vivienne has been the type of friend everyone should have in their life. Many Years ago Vivienne asked Kristianna, who her "ideal man" was, Sam was the man Kristianna talked about (and thats when Vivienne learned of this guy who Kristianna always thought very highly of). Vivienne always knew her person was Sam (although she had never met him until after they started dating). Vivienne has been a rock in Kristianna's life, in more ways than one. Kristianna couldn't imagine saying "I do" without her best friend by her side.
Holli Peel
Bridesmaid
Holli is Kristianna's oldest sister. She looked up to her whole entire life, and still does. Holli has made an imprint on Kristianna's life that is worth far more than gold. Her wisdom, heart, and love for people (especially family) knows no bounds. Kristianna is lucky to have yet another sister she is so close with. Holli and Michael have opened their home to Kristianna twice to live at (one being now, before Kristianna and Sam get married). They are selfless and loving. Great role models of a marriage, and Kristianna and Sam look up to both of them. Thankful for a sister who paved the way, and cant wait to have her by our side as we say "I Do"
Bethany Renzi
Bridesmaid
Bethany and Kristianna often get told they are "most alike". Kristianna takes this as a compliment, as Bethany is one of the most selfless, devoted, loving, and caring individuals she knows. Kristianna is so thankful that all her sisters are some of her best friends. Bethany has always been the one you go to for fashion advice, hair advice, the one you probably run to when you need some sense talked into you in a kind and loving way. Bethany is one of her very best friends and life would be way less bright without her. Kristianna is ecstatic to have Bethany by her side as she says "I Do"
Natalie MacKinnon
Bridesmaid
Natalie and Kristianna have been best friends since Freshman year of high school. Phew. Thats a long time. Outside of her family, Natalie is her longest friendship. Natalie has always been there for Kristianna in everything. All the life changes since 14 years old. Kristianna cherishes this friendship so much, and could not imagine this day without Natalie being by her side.
Taiko Bennett
Bridesmaid
Taiko is Sam's sister. However, Taiko is a perfect addition to another sister for Kristianna. Taiko is such a beautiful human being inside and out. She radiates with Joy, Love, and Compassion. Kristianna is so blessed to add another sister to her clan, and couldn't imagine a more perfect addition than Taiko. Kristianna is delighted to be joined by yet another sister to have by her side on their big day
Sith Riantawan
Best Man
Sith and Sam met during the first couple weeks of college in 2008. They lived in the same dorm, happen to have many of the same classes together, and spent much of the next four years of their lives in the library together. Sam has mostly enjoyed being Sith's most trusted friend and his rock. For better or worse, Sith has also been by Sam's side when anything bad happened over the years. Literally, he would be standing there next to him. Sam has been blessed immensely by this friendship and is proud to have Sith by his side on this big day.
Joseph Toma
Groomsman
Sam always wanted a brother and was finally blessed with one when Joesph was born. Sam very much cherished the time they had together when they were roommates again in 2019.

Barron and Sam hit it off when they met a couple years ago. Barron was also a huge support as Sam went through the academy and move to northern California. Barron made Sam feel extremely welcome as he transitioned to a new job, city, and family. Barron has a caring personality and is always ready to party. Sam looks forward to continuing their friendship and making more experiences happen.
Mitch Richardson

Cash Richardson
Ring Bearer
Cash is the youngest (so far) of the nephews. He was born right after the world shut down due to COVID. Hes the smiliest toddler you ever did know. Fun fact: Since Cierra and Kristianna share the same DNA, technically Cash is half of Kristianna's baby too. No? that's not how that works? ;) Since he was born during the shut down, the sisters "Zoomed" in on Cash's birth. Sam got to be a part of this miracle being born.
