Mirian Vanegas

My beautiful sister who recently has become my best friend. We’ve grown up and have so many memories together. She is My sister, my friend, my gossip buddy binge watching partner and so many more things and now one more to add to the list. My maid of honor. So excited to have her be a part of my special day couldn’t do this without you! Love you!
Jerson Oliva
Best Man
I remember running out of the shower naked into my mom and dads room when I was 5 and telling them that I wanted a baby brother. Although we have had a rocky relationship I am very proud of the man he has become. At the age of 18 he went off to join the marines and although he was relocated to the other end of the country I am grateful that the communication was never lost. Jerson is a man of few words but all I want to say is that this was my first little brother and it's an honor to have him as my best man!
Karen Alvarenga
Bridesmaid
Karen, my favorite cousin,don’t know how this happened but it did. Love that she makes me laugh and even though I complain about it I love our late night talks. I remember when I asked her to be my bridesmaid she cried so hard lol So it’s finally happening. I’m so excited to have you accompany Jurgen and I on our special day.
Nick Cruz
Groomsman
Nick, Nicho, Nicholas. Call him what you will but to me this is my primo who has grown to be one of my closest friends. We've been through a lot together. I still remember giving him his "first driving lesson". I remember all the crazy adventuers we've had and am very excited for all the adventures that are yet to come. Man we have done a lot of stupid things together but at the end of the day I'll always have your back Nick and I know you got mine. Thank you for being my groomsmen.
Itzel Perez
Bridesmaid
Honey! We met in high school but we definitely were meant to be friends. We went to the same elementary, and middle school and finally met in high school. When we did we instantly clicked and became great friends. Now she’s not only a friend from high school but friend for life. Thanks to her Jurgen and I are buying a house. Love her support and am honored to have you be a part of this day.
Ruben Reyes
Groomsman
Now this is my best friend. This is the person who I can share anything with and his family has become my own. I met him before I met Mirka and I am honored to have him be a part of my wedding. Overtime Ruben has become one of my brothers. We've gone to camp together, ventured different cities in California, participated in worship teams together and have had many great laughs along the way. You were the first person I thought about when planning my wedding party so thank you for being my groomsmen.
Veronica Rodriguez

I met Chiky when I was 11 but she has become the older sister that I always wanted. She has been with me for every stage of my life ever since. She’s been with me through middle school, high school, college, nursing school and engagement, and now wedding. She’s been there to support me and encourage me and provide guidance along the way. Thank you for being a bridesmaid.
Nelson Cerna (Guy Chiky)

Hermano Nelson, aka (guy Chiky) has been a loving friend in our relationship. This man has advised me along the way and I am so grateful for him. I have seen how much he has taken care of Mirka and has even gone out of his way to help me when I was in need. I know that God has something special in store for him. I know and have faith that God is looking out for him and his family because of the way he blesses others. I have nothing but love for Chiky. Hermano Nelson! Gracias por su amistad.
Guadalupe Zelaya

Lupe my second older sister. I remember when I was young I thought she was the coolest person ever. She would take my siblings and I to all the cool places and even bought me my first cell phone! So many great memories with her can’t wait to add one more to the books.
Bryan Zelaya
Groomsman
Bryan is like my little brother. I remember his mom came over to visit and brought him over as a baby and I carried him. Bryan has grown up with me(Mirka) and my siblings and is one of us. Can’t celebrate my wedding without his company.

Cesia is my cousin & Carlos is her husband. They have become our double date buddies. We love going to dinners with them and seeking new experiences together. Our last fun adventure together was going on a hot air balloon! Can't wait for more! Our wedding will be something else we can do together. Love them!
Xiomara Reyes
Bridesmaid
Xiomara soon to be sister in law !!! Not literally but that’s what we like to call each other. I met her through Jurgen and she is now my friend. We’ve grown close and she has been the one to hear me out when the going gets rough. She has become my therapist and I love our friendship. Love that she actually treats Jurgen as her brother hence making us sisters in law!
Frank Vanegas
Officiant
Frank my brother with whom I am closest in age with. We would fight and punch each other as kids and could probably still do it now lol ok. We’ve grown now and matured just a little but I love him and it will be amazing To have him officiate my wedding while my father walks me down the aisle.
Matilde & Juan Vanegas
Parents of the bride
My parents mean the world to me. They have Been amazing to me and I will forever be grateful for everything that they continue to do and have done for me. They have been an amazing example of what a marriage should be like. I pray that Jurgen and I will have a strong, long lasting marriage that is full of Love for our family but more importantly to God. What a privilege it’ll be to have my parents by my side on this very special day.
