Laura & Pablo
Wedding Party
Gabriela Quinones
Bridesmaid
Lau's little sister coming all the way from Bolivia to be reunited with her better half on such a special day after two years being apart. being the youngest of the Quinones clan, she does not only share the bride's DNA but also a whole lifetime of crazy and formidable experiences still to go ahead.
Tami & Connie
Bridesmaids
high school friends and now bridesmaids. it is really an honor to have them by Lau's side after so many years of friendship. Tami and Lau literally re-united two years ago after 10 years as Lau ended up matching with the Harshbargers here in NJ and Tami already lived in West Windsor. it's like... WHAT WERE THE ODDS?! =D Connie coming all the way from the West Coast is the perfect bond of unity to all friends back home (Bolivia) wishing they could be here with us on the big day. you bring so much joy! as you can already tell...there will be a good display of cochabambinas in New Jersey. not only one but four! (including Gaby) yay!
Iris & Valeria
Bridesmaids
mom always told me one of the best things about getting the love of your life is also getting awesome people coming into your life alongside with him, does that make sense? it totally does! I could not be happier to have these two lovely ladies as my bridesmaids and sisters-in-law now.
Andrea & Victoria
Bridesmaids
the friendships Lau has made this last two years while being in the US has brought much joy and knowledge to her life. she got super lucky to get to meet these two ladies and come so close in such a short period of time. It just feels nice to make great memories togheter... from good wine gatherings, hoagies at 2 in the morning to great ghost tales, specially those!!
Max - John - Abe
Groomsmen
everybody put your hands in the air! it's the groomsmen!. you could say it's a bromance but it might be more than that (try not to get jelous Lau!). from elementary school friends to groomsmen, this guys have been part of Pablo's life and now get to stand awkwarrrrdly by his side before friends and family on such an important occasion.
Carlos Espichan Garcia
Groomsman
Family always sticks together is one of this groomsman's biggest motto. As the oldest of the Espichan Garcia clan, he has always tried to inspire his siblings by showing them how great it is to do what you love and how dreaming big can take you places. as he said... it will be an honor to share this day with him.
Lucy Harshbarger
Flower Girl
she opened her heart to both Lau and Pablo and has been teaching them how wonderful life can be from the eyes of a 9 year old: simple & adventurous. as the planning started both groom and bride instantly realized Lucy was perfect for such a lovely task. having her involved has been terrific because of her ability to keep all of us on our feet.
Griffin
Ring Bearer
our sweet fur-ball could not miss this for the world! always having the best conversations with us, Griffin has filled our lives with love, tons of significant and demanding woof woofs and the best cuddles in the world!
Janeth & Rider
Parents of the Bride
one of the exciting events happening the day of the wedding will be, also, welcoming Lau's parents coming all the way from Bolivia for this special day (and a well deserved vacation). same as with Gaby, they haven't seen each other in two years and will finally meet Lau's american&guatemalan family and great friends she has made while being an AuPair here. how exciting is this?
Thelma
Mother of the Groom
nothing like good loving from a momma-bear like Pablo's mom. heads up because she shines bright like a diamond.
Dan Harshbarger
Officiant
it is with great excitement that we announce our awesome officiant's identity. yes! it is Dan! we asked him because we wanted someone who actually knew about us and about our story to marry us and HE SAID YES! promising ceremony coming!
Sharon Harshbarger
bride & groom's unconditional advisor
keeping us always sane and at ease... Sharon always found the way to bring peace to us through her very proactive and humble self. we are forever grateful for all the support while planning both our special days but also our lives together. we could not go without mentioning her <3
