Wedding Party
Alexis
Bride
Marc
Groom
Ceci
Maid of Honor
I met Ceci back in 2017 while volunteering at a STEM Saturday event, our students dissected the same sheep heart together. Since then, our friendship has blossomed into nonstop laughter and memories that I’ll cherish forever. From traveling to Central America together (where we got eaten up by bed bugs) to our daily phone calls and Facetimes to one another, it’s safe to say we have been inseparable ever since.
Alejandro
Best Man
Marc's right-hand man. His second in command. Alejandro and Marc became best friends in high school playing on the lacrosse team. Alejandro is the most reliable friend you could ask for, and while he often forgets to share his big life events, he is always there for Marc's. Marc and Alejandro share so many of the same pastimes and interests that they are essentially the same person, one is just paler and the other is Marc.
Tatiana
Bridesmaid
I’ve known Tati since when we were in middle school at Walter C. Young but it wasn’t until I was 16 that Tatiana and I grew much closer. We’ve shared a lot of special moments together, my favorite being the day she got her pride and joy, Hendrix, from me when I worked at Petland. Tatiana has supported me through some of the most challenging years, she could effortlessly make me forget about a tough day and turn it into great memories, whether we shared a meal and great conversations or spent the day with our dogs. She’s an incredibly talented artist but an even better friend.
Eric
Groomsman / Officiant
Brother to the groom and the person who showed him how cool it is to be a geek. They shared a room for most of Marc's childhood so Eric introduced him to a ton of Marc's favorite things. Growing up, Marc threw up on Eric in his sleep multiple times and Eric never beat him up for it even though he would've deserved it.
Megan
Bridesmaid
I can’t even remember the first time I met Megan. Megan was always someone I looked up to, from afar anyone could see how smart and put together she is, Megan is someone who inspires everyone around her. I soon came to find out what a pure soul Megan is, she’s an incredible singer (and the best karaoke partner), and the most genuine person I know. She’s definitely the person that you’ll see having the time of her life out on the dance floor.
Tyler
Groomsman
Tyler is a neighbor that will be a lifelong friend. Marc and Tyler grew up together only a month apart in age so it was always a bit easier for them to relate to each other. While Tyler spent more time playing Gears of War and RuneScape than playing kickball growing up, Marc still spent a ton of time hanging out in Tyler's room and downing boxes of goldfish.
Amanda
Bridesmaid
Beauty and brains. Amanda is the life of the party, she’s the friend who reminds me to live in the moment and it’s what I admire most about her. It’s impossible to spend a day with Amanda and leave without a great memory together and a hilarious story to look back on. Amanda is everything I could ask for in a friend, she is always willing to get Chipotle with me and will never hesitate to book a trip even when her bank account advises otherwise.
Bryan
Groomsman
Bryan was Marc's closest childhood friend and the kid he looked up to growing up. Bryan was his next-door neighbor and also his most dominant Man-hunt partner. Being two years older, Bryan always had prior knowledge from his life experiences and would share them with Marc. Marc took Bryan's every word so seriously, that at one point he was convinced that Bryan had lost a real gem buried somewhere in his yard and wanted to help him look. Marc was young, but like old enough to not believe such a story. To this day the gem remains lost.
Yesenia
Bridesmaid
Yesenia and I were a part of the same medical fraternity in college. She was almost my “little” until I threw a fit about not getting two littles and ended up losing her as my little in the process, whoops (if you were a part of a sorority or fraternity, you know the drama of bigs and littles). She is the person I go to before I make any big decision and she always has the best advice to offer. Yesenia is one of my closest friends, she is incredible in every way possible, she’s funny, so loyal to all her friends, and is the most stylish person I know.
Eddie
Groomsman
Eddie is Marc's brother-in-law. Even though Eddie married into the family, he truly belongs in it. Eddie isn't Marc's groomsmen out of tradition or expectation as a brother-in-law, but rather because he has become one of the more important men in Marc's life and is now just his other-brother and he couldn't imagine not having him up there with him when he marries Alexis.
