Wedding Party
Hunter Camahalan
Man of Honor
I'm one of Levi’s best friends. Our relationship is the perfect example of when friends become family. I have been friends with Levi for more than two decades now. Our paths first crossed as school mates in both grade school and high school back in the Philippines. But fate has always made us inseparable, leading our paths to cross again in Las Vegas. I have always admired Levi’s altruism. I have met and share some of the truest and most loyal friends through her. She has always been the glue that binds us all together. I am so grateful and fortunate to call this remarkable and caring woman my best friend with knowing our relationship can and will endure for a lifetime.

I’ve known Joe for more than half my life. We met in high school and became fast friends quickly bonding over our love for throwback R&B jams, rooting for opposing basketball teams, and our competitive nature. As we got older, I realized Joe became the brother I never had. He always looked out for me and always had my back. All of my most craziest, fun, cherished memories, he was always there to experience too. I am excited to stand next to him in what is probably his most exciting adventure yet! Cheers to Joe and Levi, let’s get you two married!
Brenda Primero
Matron of Honor
Levi calls me “Ate, ‘te, momma”. I am the eldest and many ways the parent that took over in the middle of her “teenage, punk rock phase”, (studded belts, vans, cajon box drum and ALL) when we moved to the US. Levi has grown from a quiet, shy girl to this independent, confident woman. Even through all her experiences and changes in life, her humor, love and care has always been consistent. Congratulations to Levi and Joe who compliments her in every way! You’re welcome Joe!
Judge Primero
Groomsman
I am Joe’s only soon-to-be brother-in-law. We have mastered and take joy in being in the background for our ladies and appreciate their support in every way possible even while watching our games, shows and playing with new gadgets. It's great to have someone that shares the same passion in sports, sneakers, and women 😜. Welcome to the family! Congratulations to you and Levi!

Levi - a situational big sister “ate” but officially younger sister “bunso” to me. I say this because by contrast, she’s always been a logical thinker whereas I'm lead by my emotions. Growing up she's always been so responsible yet never missing the opportunity to just enjoy life. While our relationship is unique and strong, albeit mercurial at times, it's us -- never dull & I wouldn't have it any other way. We like to joke around & call her our parent’s favorite daughter because she's good, like Brenda, and yet playful, like me. They'll never admit it but it's probably true! Levi, you deserve all the happiness of this world. I know that this is the best decision Joe has ever made. I am so excited for you MRS. V!

When I first met Joe, I said something tough to him and he just looked at me and was like ok… He passed the “initiation” with flying colors that day and definitely glad he did because everything after has been such a wild ride called life. From the tennis team in high school, crushing tennis intramural in college, keeping up with sports, going to WWE events, talking about girls, playing games, we’ve done it all. All the crazy parties like throwing my bday parties at his house with his pool. He stayed my friend even after I got boo’d by 15k+ fans at the Barclays Center because that’s what brothers do. Joe is one of the best guys I know and I’m really glad he has found his best. I can’t wait for my brother and soon to be sister, Levi to have their day and start their next adventure together.

I met Levi in nursing school back in 2010. We were in the same clinical group & distinctly remember seeing her laughing with everyone. If you know Levi, you know her personality is so warm & inviting that you can’t help but talk to her, plus she's hilarious! One day I overheard her talking about going out on the weekends & since I didn’t know anyone I mustered up the courage to ask if I could go too. I’m not exaggerating when I say that conversation became one of the most important of my life. From there, she not only became one of my best friends, but my family. She has shown me so much love & the meaning of true friendship. It was because of her & all the great people I met through her that I have a second family & home in Vegas. She’s literally the best & can’t get any better than her!

Joe is one of my longest and best friends. He has always been a loyal, caring, and thoughtful friend. Our friendship was built on our love of Kobe and R&B music videos and today has grown stronger with his constant support and guidance. From making dance circles in the club to having my kids run circles around us, it is never a dull moment with Joe. I can’t wait to see what the next chapter in his life has waiting for him.

I have known Levi for what seems like forever. Our favorite people, Brenda and Judge, are married which makes us family. We clicked from the moment we met and have been a constant in each others lives ever since. She’s the person I call after a long day at work, who never fails to put me in a better mood and a smile on my face. There’s never a dull moment when she’s around. She’s my K-Drama sister and my only friend (our inside joke) — so happy for you leaves, you deserve the best!

I've known Joe since he was first introduced to our group by Adrian back in high school. We all knew each other since middle school, but Joe was the new kid on the block. Despite this he quickly became one of our best friends because we all shared the same love for sports, food, video games, music, movies, drinking responsibly, and studying hard. Over the years we've spent many late nights together out at the clubs where The DJ Got Us Fallin' In Love. Afterwards we usually ended up driving around for some greasy food that would make us say OMG. And then the next day would be full of heart Burn. If you asked me if I was excited that Joe and Levi were getting married, my only reply would be YEAH!

Levi and I go way back. Our families have been friends since I was in elementary school. When I moved here from the Philippines, she was one of the few people who I started hanging out with. From chilling at Starbucks, volleyball at the park, satisfying our KFC cravings, to having some drinks in my backyard. With Hunter aka the Man of Honor, we were the trio who literally did everything together since we all moved to Vegas.

Who would’ve thought that I would meet one of my lifelong best friends while learning phrases like “hola me llamo Darshan”…not me that’s for sure. I have to admit, I was pretty intimidated by his serious demeanor, LA hat and tall tee wearing Asian teenager sitting next to me in Spanish class back in 2004. But then came tennis, our random hangouts at the park, creating whirlpools in the pool, partying aka love of a good drink, and, most importantly, Fast and Furious…especially Tokyo Drift. Not very many people can say they met their best friends back in high school but I am fortunate to have met you and even more fortunate to stand beside you on one of the most important days of your life. Cheers *holding shot of Teremana* to all our past memories and all our future ones, I love you man.

As the appointed adopted sister, I’ve known Levi aka Babs (to me) for a very long time — not quite since diapers but practically. Our relationship has grown so much over the years from being the designated lil sis to nursing me back to cool again to taking the lead in adulting. It’s been a great journey to be a part of. With a personality so magnetic, that people naturally gravitate towards, it’s no wonder she’s the conduit to most of my valued friendships. My most favorite things about her are her humor and wit, it’s never ending jokes, punchlines, and quips so you gotta be quick with the comebacks! I’m so happy she’s finally found her person. Love ya Babsy!

Joe and I (and my sister, Tanya) lived in the same house, ate the same foods, and played with the same toys. We grew up together. We were born cousins, but grew up as brothers. Even after moving to Las Vegas, our families remained close. What's 300 miles when family bonds are perpetually connected? We also traveled to Thailand to explore where our moms came from, and later, got lost in Japan. Along the way, I got to know Levi as well, though I'm still questioning if that has been good for my wallet! Kidding aside, Levi has been nothing short of sweet and caring towards me, our families, and our friends. I'm so happy Joe and Levi have found their ways toward each other, and look forward to what paths they take together in the future. I wish you two the best always. Congrats Joe and Levi!

I’m Liana, sister of the bride. Living in different countries it was a lot harder to keep in contact with my sisters. But every time we ended up visiting each other I was always reminded of how much family meant. Ever since Joe entered our family he has always been extremely open minded and ecstatic which is perfect for the Galicia’s. I’m so happy for them and I can’t wait to see what adventures life throws at them.

The adventure of Joe and I began when I met Joe in our high school Spanish class. Intimidating as he was, I soon won over his heart and friendship and the lifetime of adventure commenced from there. Through college, misfortunes, and the successes in life we were always there for each other and always will be. I have many favorite memories with Joe but two of my lifetime favorites will always be: -Locking my keys inside my car at the mall while driving a group of friends and needing to beg Joe’s dad to come save us while we all froze outside. -The day I left for grad school, Joe was the only one there, bright and early at sunrise to send me off before my cross country drive. Congratulations Joe and Levi and here's to a continued lifetime of adventure and love!
