Wedding Party
Gabrielle Baro
Maid of Honor
How do I know the bride? Let’s just say I’ve seen her at her best and worst because I’m her sister, lol. From childhood memories to late-night talks and inside jokes only we understand, she’s always been my best friend. We grew up sharing everything including snacks, secrets, and plenty of arguments over who stole whose clothes. Watching her grow into the amazing woman she is today has been such a blessing. She’s someone I’ve always looked up to my role model in more ways than one. I’m beyond proud of the person she’s become, and I can’t wait to see her start this beautiful new chapter. I love you, my Achi ♥️

I'm both blessed and fortunate God gave me a brother like Mike. Some of my fondest memories of him were waking up on Saturday mornings to watch cartoons, playing Nintendo together, and discovering that singed hair smells like burnt squid while messing around with a barbecue grill. We've shared plenty of laughs, lessons, and growing pains along the way. I'm proud of the man he’s become and grateful to share not just blood, but a lifelong bond of friendship and brotherhood. And I truly believe Krisha is a blessing—not only to him, but to our entire family. I couldn’t imagine anyone better to complement his life.

Krisha and I first met back in 2016 at a Filipino party. I remember sitting there, my plate of food getting cold, because we were deep in conversation from the moment we started talking. That’s how I knew—this wasn’t just a casual chat; this was the beginning of a real sisterhood.

Mike had the fortune of meeting me over 30 years ago. We bonded over music and the shared trauma of being teenage boys in youth group. Our friendship solidified during four years living together in Korea after college—though Mike can't remember much from that time for some reason. Through the years, I've served as a model for Mike. When I moved to Orange County, he moved there. I got a prius, he got one. Then I got a Tesla, now Mike has one. And now he's getting married, of course. What's next, kids?!

Chimichanga! Krisha was first a coworker but rapidly became a friend. She is such an amazing person and a beautiful soul. I wish you the best Krisha, you deserve it!

When I first met Mike, I could tell right away he had this chill, grounded vibe like someone who’s been through life and come out wiser, not jaded. He’s easy to talk to, genuinely listens, and makes you feel like you’ve known him forever. But the real magic, He made my sister fall in love and as her first boyfriend, set the bar incredibly high. We’re lucky to have him in the family.

I met Krisha on my first week of work. We were all orienting as new nurses at HCA. She seemed quiet and nice. Didn’t really say much. I believe we did some activity together, the next day she saved me a seat next to her. After that, she’d always bring snacks and we’d eat lunch together. She was really funny, friendly, and kind. She also had a really cute laugh 😂 I’m not one to make friends easily but she made it seem so easy. Krisha is so amazing, you can’t not like her!

I met Mike when he started dating Krisha, my girlfriend’s sister, and we’ve hung out at plenty of family gatherings since. He’s laid-back, quick with a joke, and always easy to talk to. We might not have years of history, but I’ve seen how much he cares about the people around him. Pumped to stand up for him and Krisha on their big day.

My name is Tammy, and I am the proud, future sister in law of the bride. Although I’ve only known Krisha for a short amount of time, she is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met! I am so happy to have her in our family 🩷

I originally met Mike playing pickleball, watching him baffle opponents with his slices. Then I joined the same church and got to know Mike better through talks after service, lunches, and weekly small group. He also became my consigliere for my DIY home improvement, which is a coveted role with my fixer-upper house. I’m tempted to call him a role model but after a year of playing pickleball together he still hasn’t learned that trying to lob the ball over me doesn’t work.
