Wedding Party
Marina
Bride
Welcome to the start of our forever! I'm Marina, the bride, Peter's better half. I am so excited to see all of the hard work of planning the wedding come to fruition and I can't wait for all our friends and family to have a blast and dance the night away!
Peter
Groom
Hello Everyone! Welcome to our big day! I'm Marina's crazier half and the snazziest groom you'll ever see. I am excited to take this step with the world's most beautiful doctor and amazing chef. I cannot wait to see you all and celebrate this huge milestone with our people!
Val
Maid of Honor
The most hardworking person I know. I met Val in 6th grade in the era of pink tank tops and jean capris. We instantly became close and bonded over anything and everything. We made silly songs that made no sense to other people and filmed music videos of us dancing to moves we choreographed. Little did we know that we would later become best friends for over 14 years. She's truly the sister that I never got to have and I can't wait to share my next journey of married life beside my ride or die.
Tony
Best Man
The group's most creative mind. Tony tends to find a solution for every problem in the most out of the box thinking. Make sure you call and see which corner of the world he's in for the weekend though. As my Best Man, I've know Tony for more than a dozen years and have cultivated my the most precious of memories with him. Tony and I were both born in similar areas around similar times. We have go through thick and thins together. We have similar taste in cars as we maintained driving the same car models for approximately 5 years. He is an expert in a lot of topics and as a designer like myself he tends to know how to make everything around him pixel-perfect
Yesabel
Bridesmaid
My favorite fun-sized fellow future bride. We met in undergrad and bonded over our mutual struggles of being pre-med at Hunter College. We laughed together, cried together, and everything in between. I'll cherish those memories and hope to continue to make many more memories together.
Abdul
Groomsman
The group's voice of reason; While he's one of my youngest friends, Abdul is my "Rafiki" from The Lion King. Whether I sit with him for minutes, hours, or days; It never seems to be enough and we will never run out of things to talk about in our heart of hearts. Definitely a partner I want by our side on this special day.
Debbie
Bridesmaid
The girl with killer belly dance moves. Ever since I met Debbie, I always knew she's had the biggest heart towards the people she loves. She never hesitates to reach out to check in and offer a helping hand. I appreciate all of our trips together and random hangouts in her basement. Don't ask her about her haunted teddy bear.
Romany
Groomsman
The group's Macgyver. As a crafty engineer Romany is able to craft anything that solves a problem. He is always a steady wall to lean on, whether it's a truck that I needed to borrow or a place I needed to crash he is incapable of saying no. Always there as a resonating voice of reason and calmness, his presence is always there to steady a rocking boat into course.
Noura
Bridesmaid
The creative DIY queen! Noura is the type of friend to always be by your side and have your back through anything. She'll never hesitate to help out even while having her mom responsibilities. We've gotten so close through our friend therapy session and late night talks about anything and everything. When you see her around, make sure not to get her attention by poking her arm, she hates that.
Mina
Groomsman
The group's father figure. As Luke's father, and since his house has always been open to all of us, I have truly felt that Mina is a brother of mine and that Lukie is my nephew. Mina has a huge heart which is evident in everything he does which can be called wholehearted at the very least. Mina is generous in his emotions and will not hold back on saying something uplifting.
Mary
Bridesmaid
The cutest chef and doctor to be! Oh she's also a dog mom to the most handsome gold retriever, Theo. Me and Mary met in the first year of medical school and since then became close. We bonded through our multiple struggles both in the classroom and outside of it. Even though our school kinda sucks, I will forever be grateful for it being the reason we met. If you have any medical questions, she'll be around!
Mark
Groomsman
The group's bad influence. A simple call from Mark can either mean that you're going down the road for a drink or going to Europe for a trip. From east to west, north to South, I have been with this man everywhere. Whether it's smelly socks or weird blue pants, he has seen me wear them all. His presence has always been a cure to my spouts of boredness.
Galina
Bridesmaid
My sister from another mister. We've known each other since undergrad and have literally become inseparable since. We were unfortunately separated when she moved to Colorado but I hope and can't wait for her to live close by again. She's funny and down to earth but isn't afraid to be sassy if you ever cross her. I would get handwritten letter from Galina when I went away for school. I love ya and can't wait to celebrate with you.
Abanoub
Groomsman
The one who makes the worst decisions in supporting soccer teams. The poor guy chose to support both Zamalek and Chelsea, which means he doesn't catch a break. Between our hours-long heart-to-hearts and our long nights playing FIFA through the years, I have formed some truly memorable nights with Bebo. Give him a shot of Tequila and you're bound to see something fun.
Sandra
Bridesmaid
Our beautiful future nurse! Sandra lights up any room she walks into and her laugh is quite infectious. We had a weekend trip to wildwood a few years back and that was the start our friendship. we've gotten close and went on plenty of more trips after that. I know for a fact she's gonna be a great nurse who cares for her patients. Can't wait to have you by my side!
Fady
Groomsman
The group's musician. Fady has the amazing ability to produce great tunes out of any instrument you give him (Except the violin). He is as talented as he is funny. He is the one that usually gets my comic-book references and can jam with me on a spectrum ranging between Egyptian mahraganat to the moonlight Sonata. His talent probably will have produced tracks that you will hear on our big day
Angela
Bridesmaid
The group's most spontaneous yet crazy and organized planner. I love all the trips we got to take together and our random meet ups where she texts me and just says she wants to catch up. She's always checking in and making sure I'm sane throughout this process. Peter is the reason we met and we've stayed friends through the ups and downs and I'm grateful for her presence in my life. Can't wait to have you by my side through this crazy process.
Michael
Groomsman
This groups foodie trailer. Michael is the wisest member of this group and always knows how to right a wrong. He is always there to step in when he's needed and he's always present when everyone else is absent. Michael has a great ability of dealing with kids and is always will be able to talk through things and walk through a problem to reach a solution together.
Sandy
Bridesmaid
The group's former party animal, promoted to the best mama to baby Lilo. Me and sandy have a lot in common, including both of us getting hit by a car (I know, crazy). I can't wait to see her be the best girl mom and further grow her family. Can't wait to have you bust some crazy moves on the dance floor with me!
Karim
Groomsman
Our newest Daddy! Karim is the sponsor of all things fun and of all good vibes. He will stand next to you both in the hardest of times and will hand you a shot in the best of them. He makes the bad times good and the good times better. We have been on multiple roadtrips all over the east coast and even dropped out of planes together. Find him on the dance floor carrying the most beautiful baby Eliana.
