Wedding Party
Kyle Riang
Groom
Alexis Chasengnou
Bride
Theodor Riang
Best Man
Grooms brother Theodor has always been there for me growing up. He would drive me to work when I didn't have car or a license and even helped me find my first job. Has a lot of crude humor but one of funniest people I know.
Rainie Ly
Maid of Honor
Childhood friend As cousins that lived close, we spent so much time together and shared countless memories. Like any lifelong friendship, we have had ups and downs, and even though life took us in different directions for a few years after high school, we found our way back to a closer friendship.
Eric Le
Groomsman
Childhood friend Eric and I met in the 6th grade when he first shared with me that he is allergic to chocolate cake. We quickly bonded over video games and basketball spending countless hours gaming or playing basketball as kids. Now that we are adults we spend a lot of time gaming on Saturday mornings and a lot less time playing basketball. One of the silliest people I know but also a very genuine person.
Toni Chasengnou
Bridesmaid
Sister of the bride My sister and I had a love hate relationship as kids, but we learned to understand each other and are now able to freely talk about anything. She is a girls girl and is always there when you need someone to talk to and make you feel better.
Jose Ochoa
Groomsman
Childhood friend Jose is one of the most selfless and kind hearted people I know. A type of person that would give you the shirt off his back and the last few dollars in his bank account. Genuinely a good human and proud to call him my friend.
Laura Chasengnou
Bridesmaid
Brides sister We weren't as close growing up, but over time we grew closer as we both became our own people. She is easy to talk to and a strong mother. Finds the best way possible to support her children and I have a lot of respect for her.
Rafael Ayala
Groomsman
Childhood friend Raf and I hung out a lot growing up as kids bonding over football and gaming. Now that we are adults we have spent many Saturday mornings together at the gym recapping how the week went and how life is going. We would also spend a lot of Sundays getting lunch together and bonding over food. The closer he gets to you the meaner he gets, but that is how he shows his love.
Alitia Blakely
Bridesmaid
Close friend I met Alitia through Raf and we had a lot of lunch dates together that helped us grow closer and feel more comfortable together. She is now a very close friend and can handle spicy food surprisingly! She is fun to be around in a social or private setting and she is my ride or die! Even though she now lives further away we still keep in close contact.
Riley Mahan
Groomsman
Childhood friend Although Riley and I did not hang out as much growing up throughout middle and high school we have recently grown a lot closer, so much so that we are now practically neighbors and live about 5 minutes apart. Riley is a very responsible and honest person, two of the traits that I admire most about him.
Kristin Riang
Bridesmaid
Brides sister in law My nice sister-in law who always takes care of me and makes sure everyone around her is well taken care of. We initially bonded over the movie white chicks and making fun of Kyle and Theo for not knowing the movie. A very funny and genuine person! She is thoughtful
Joko Riang
Father of the Groom
I would not be here without my father, and I say that literally and figuratively. Every opportunity that I have, every milestone I have accomplished, and a lot of life lessons were learned from my father.
Gladys Riang
Mother of the Groom
My mother is a very thoughtful and caring person. While my father taught me life lessons and how to seize opportunity my mother taught me balance and how to be a well rounded individual.
