Wedding Party
Nikolina
Maid of Honor
Nikolina and Michelina were destined to be best friends with names like theirs. They’ve been best friends and adopted into each other’s families since sophomore year of high school. Nikolina is the smartest person Miki knows, and rightfully so, she used to be a scientist! Miki is so thrilled to have Nina in her life and can’t believe they’re in their marriage era.
Katia
Bridesmaid
Katia is Michelina’s beautiful younger sister and the creator of her favorite nieces and nephews. Katia is a real life Superwoman and an absolute angel who goes out on a limb for anyone. She’s fiercely devoted to her family but still successfully manages the Bearded Barber. Miki is so lucky to have an amazing sister like her!
Elyse
Bridesmaid
Elyse is Michelina’s cousin and the yin to her yang. They used to galavant around pretending to know how to ride skateboards and parkour and even scored a free trip to Hawaii once in their teens. If you need a friend to engage in silly goose activities—Elyse is your girl.
Shannon
Bridesmaid
Michelina met Shannon while working at Fat Tuesday and trauma bonded over late night Westgate bartending (iykyk), and now she’s stuck with Miki for life. Shannon is the most charismatic person you’ll meet and is always ready to indulge in your crazy travel ideas.
Julia
Bridesmaid
Michelina met Julia while working in Surprise circa 2017 and years later they both ended up living in the same apartment complex in Washington. You’ll never meet anyone more quick witted and ready for EXTREME pickleball or any other sports as Julia. She’s kept Miki sane in WA and is a treasured friend.
Gilbert
Best Man
Gilbert and Brett grew up on the same street causing trouble. They quickly became friends growing up through their joy of skateboarding and old school hip-hop. Gilbert can be known by many nicknames, but no matter what you call him, you can call him a friend. He never settles for mediocrity and won't let you either, as Gilbert is a continuous student with two Master's Degrees and PhD candidate. Brett is lucky to have such a great person to look up to and always be by his side.
Tyler
Groomsman
Tyler and Brett became friends after almost fighting in middle school. That isn't a normal start to a friendship, but everything except normal is the perfect description for Tyler. He can often be life of the party wherever he goes, and is unforgettable by any means. Tyler is loyal to the death and will always be there for you, even when he shouldn't be. Brett is grateful to have Tyler around and remind him of the good days, and the bad.
Hayden
Groomsman
Brett met Hayden at a young age in elementary school. Their friendship became everlasting through High School after the many ups and downs encountered together. They then roommates right after Brett left the Army, which gave Brett the opportunity to meet Michelina. Brett is lucky to have Hayden be a great friend for such a long time.
Nick
Groomsman
Nick and Brett also met through skateboarding at a young age. Nick's hospitality is second-to-none and shows that to every person he meets. No matter how many times Nick has banged his head, he will always get back up and start shredding with you. Nick is a new Father, but Brett is thankful for having him around always.
Doug
Groom
Doug and Brett met in elementary school through his older brother Brandon. After causing much mischief in high school, both Doug and Brett joined the Army and the rest was history. Doug has always been a faithful friend that will have your back no matter the scenario. Brett is grateful that Doug will continue to have his back for one last excursion.
