Wedding Party
Brock Frome
Chris's Best Man
Chris's friend Brock is one of the most pragmatic individuals on the planet. Real solid dude, well read, intelligent, thoughtful, and a delight to have around. The world is a better place with him in it. I can't wait to hear what he has to say about my Oxford comma.
Kevin Ogren
Melania's Best Man
Literally my little brother from another mother. Amazing chef, fisherman and friend of Melania’s.
Jennifer Lace
Chris's Maid of Honor
Chris's big sister, Jennifer. She is the type of big sister everyone wishes they had. She was kind enough to replace Chris's paint set several decades after she broke it. Real solid Dude. Likes to party.
Sally French
Melania's Maid of Honor
My work sister and soulmate. Hired Sally when she was 19, and we've been connected ever since. Watched her grow into an inspiring leader, dedicated mother, and partner, and one of my most cherished friends.
SueAnn & Tim Lace
Chris's Parents
Recently celebrated 50 years of marriage. They are a great example of partnership and a loving couple. We are thrilled to have their blessing and Melania was welcomed by these two via video call Christmas of 2019. Since she loves being a part of their holiday gift-giving chaos with all the kids and grandkids!!
Sue & Pete Bohlmann
Melania's Parents
My mom and Pete have been campground hosts at Baylor since 2018. Sadly this will be the last summer, as they fully retire and stay in Alamo Texas or Katerina Nicagragua. We have so enjoyed our summers camping out here and spending time with them. They absolutely LOVE Mister Lace and are happy to call him family.
Felipe Ferradas
Father of the Bride
Melania's dad has had some challenges over the last 4 years with his health. He has persevered and is so blessed to be a part of the union in person. He is like a cat - 9 lives. He keeps bouncing back. A retired Spanish teacher, he has touched the lives of many and carries his charisma and zest for life everywhere he goes.
Bethany Ferradas
Melania's sister
Anyone who has had the privilege of meeting Bethany knows the blessing she is to our family and friends. She has a wonderful foster home in Maple Grove, where her foster mom, Kari, looks after her and has provided a nurturing, loving home for Beth since she was 18. She wouldn't miss this party, that's for sure!
