Robin Nanda

Best Man

Robin is Chris's good friend since right out of college. They connect over their multiple hobbies including Magic the Gathering, soccer, video games, golf, and shooting. Robin may be Chris's best man, but he is also a great man. Chris is happy to have him standing by his side on this important day.

Tawny Hernandez

Matron of Honor

Tawny is Lacey's sister and lifelong closest friend. She is in charge of....basically everything! She has had a hand in dress choices, color schemes, decorations, theme, etc.! Lacey is super thankful to have her sis by her side every step of the way!

Bryan Tilos

Groomsman

Bryan is Chris's brother-in-law (married to his sister Jessie) and the father of flower girl, Sarah. He is a United States Airforce Vet and enjoys producing music! He is a great dad and Uncle to Landon and we hope to get him on the dance floor as he is a break dancer and used to be part of a dance crew!

Brooklynn Hernandez

Bridesmaid

Brooklynn is Lacey's oldest niece and a total sweetheart. She will be almost 17 when this wedding takes place and I can't believe she has grown into such a lovely young woman. Brooklynn is the peacekeeper of our family and has been very helpful with the Tangled theme.

Michael-Ray Cayton

Groomsman

Michael-Ray is Chris' cousin and also the Godfather of Landon! He shares a love for Magic the Gathering as well as Villainous with Chris and they have been gaming since they were kids! Chris is happy to have Michael-Ray for this special event.

Makayla Hernandez

Junior Bridesmaid

Makayla Jayne is Lacey's youngest niece and a competitive dancer! She will be 13 at the time of our wedding and this little girl grew up before our very eyes. Makayla is our fashionista and her opinion definitely matters! She is also head makeup artist for the wedding party. :)

Jessica Tilos

Groom's Gal

Jessica is the sister of Chris and the mother of one of our sweet flower girls, Sarah! Jessie is a classically trained and accomplished violinist that plays in a municipal orchestra. She is incredibly witty and funny. We are so excited to have her stand with Chris on our special day as the "Groom's Gal!"

Joey Costantino

Bride's Guy

Joey is the cousin of Lacey and has been her lifelong friend. Joey is a High School music teacher and has been a musician for most of his life. Joey has always felt more like a brother, and we are so happy to have him as the "Bride's Guy"!

Landon Evangelista

Ring Bearer

Landon is the son of Chris Evangelista! He is a ball of energy with the smarts and wit to match anyone he meets. If you want to make an instant friend, talk to him about Star Wars (he's on the Dark Side) or Super Heroes. He'll be 7 at the time of the cruise and Chris and Lacey are so excited to get to experience this with him.

Sarah Tilos

Flower Girl

Sarah sweetie is the niece of Chris and the daughter of Jessica (Chris's sister) and Bryan Tilos. She will be 3 at the time of our sailing and is a little doll with the energy of a pixie! She loves to dance, laugh and give hugs. <3 She brightens the room with her joy.

Winry Bronsert

Flower Girl

Winry is the daughter of Lacey's forever friend Michelle and her husband Carson. She is a Disney baby as her parents met at Disney, married at Disney and her dad works with Mickey. She is a lovely little lady that will be 2 at the time of sailing. Her whimsy name matches her bright, sunshiny personality.

Helen Dodson

Mother of the Groom

This is Helen, Chris' incredible mom! She is lovingly referred to as "Lola" by her grand babies Landon and Sarah. Helen takes care of everyone she comes into contact with and can top anyone's energy level! We love her dearly and are so happy she gets to take this needed vacation and be a part of our special day.

Michael Olivarez

Father of the Bride

Michael is Lacey's dad. He's been there for all of her big moments, but this time he is walking her down the aisle. Michael is a fashion guru that will be in charge of making sure the men in the wedding party are looking handsome! Thanks dad!

Andrea Olivarez

Mother of the Bride

Andrea is Lacey's mom. Her attention to detail and ability to think through ANY difficult decision has always been her greatest strength. Andrea is a sensitive soul and you will most likely find her crying throughout the cruise. Not to fear...they are probably happy tears. Love you, mom!

Ron Evangelista

Father of the Groom

This is Chris' father, Ron. He lives in Maryland and unfortunately will not be joining us on this wedding cruise. But we will keep him close to our hearts every step of the way. We love you!
