Lani & Eric
Meet the Party!
Maile Fok
Maid of Honor
Maile is Lani's precious younger sister. Ever since she came into Lani's life, she’s been a ball of sunshine. She has always been Lani's personal cheerleader through ups and downs. Ever since Lani got her license, Maile and Lani used to go to Disney together at least once before the new school year started; not only was it to renew their passes, but mainly for them to spend an entire day together. Oh how they miss those days, but Disney or not, Lani is eternally grateful they still continue to make time out of their busy schedules to hang out with each other.
Daniel Chang
Best Man
Daniel is Eric’s first friend after Eric came from the far east old county, making Daniel Eric’s oldest and longest friend. From riding bikes and collecting lost golf balls when they first met to storming the weather and helping Eric propose to Lani in over 2 feet of snow, and everything else in between, Daniel has always been Eric’s ‘ride or die’ guy.
Annie Wu
Bridesmaid
Before anything started between Eric and Lani, Annie had been there. Annie has been in full support for Eric and Lani, and even planted herself in situations purposely so they would have a chance to interact. She’s been such a great supporter and friend, especially once she succeeded in bringing Eric and Lani closer. She’s always excited to hear about the next chapter, and always excited to be near. She’s such a joy to have around!
Vincent Chan
Groomsman
Vincent is Eric’s most mindful and kindhearted supportive friend. While Vincent and Eric did not grow up together, they did grow close together very quickly. Vincent suggested to Eric to become accountability partners back in 2011, from then Vincent became one of the people that Eric allows himself to be completely open and vulnerable with.
Pauline Chong
Bridesmaid
Ever had a friend you were close to in Preschool, then lost them for a bit, and reconnected in the future? After Lani left Kindergarten to go to another school, they lost contact with one another. It wasn’t until they bumped into each other in high school again that they reconnected and rekindled their long lost relationship. Retracing old memories and creating new memories during their time together became so natural again. After their high school and college graduations, they continued to stay connected, be it phone calls or visiting each other in person. Any time trouble stirs, Lani can always count on Pauline to have her back. Lani still remembers a time when she was being terribly disrespected, and did not have the nerve to say anything; Pauline turned around and stood up for her.
Jordan Chang
Groomsman
Jordan is Eric’s definition of unchanging loyalty. Eric and Jordan has been friends since like 10 years old, throughout the years Eric and Jordan have had more moments of having differences in opinion than moments of sharing opinions. Yet through all butting of thought and ideology, Eric and Jordan remained best of friends and Jordan is always someone that Eric can trust to deliver the selfless truth. Oh and most importantly, Jordan is Eric's most eligible bachelor ;)
Erin Zhang
Bridesmaid
Not only is Erin Lani's future sister-in-law, but ever since their first few encounters, Erin has consistently been giving Lani nothing but bright and warming smiles; be it in her home, her brother’s graduation, and welcoming Lani to their church. If Lani ever needed assistance, she would drop what she is working on to help her out. Every time they find a new thing to bond over, or find a new similarity with one another, there’s always excitement and laughter that follows, be it Bubz, BigBang, or spicy food.
Jason Carter
Groomsman
Jason is Eric’s preserving voice of hope and reason. Eric not always being a positive and hopeful person has on more than a few occasions become disillusioned by the environmental factors of life. However, Jason has always been the constant reminder of the faith and hope in God’s plan and provisions. Eric relays on Jason for his hopeful reminders.
Michelle Wang
Bridesmaid
Ever since Michelle came to Livingstone Alliance (shoutout to the church Lani grew up in), she has been such a great support. She has been supporting Lani through the planning and studying process in becoming a teacher, and even more so in her life when Lani asked her to be her spiritual mentor. Michelle continues to support and show God’s love for Lani, especially in difficult times, or times when Lani may experience doubt in God's love.
Karl Wang
Groomsman
Karl is Eric’s mentor, counselor, and ultimate mastermind. First it is important to recognize that Karl is ultimately the one responsible for bringing Eric and Lani together. Secondly, Karl really has been the example of what young adult and young married life should look like for a follower of Christ, both in the good and bad times. Karl not only provides counsel through his words but through work in Eric’s life.
