Mitzi & Carlos
Wedding Party
Brooke Powers
Matron of Honor
Also knows as B- the Best of Gals! What started as random roommates Freshman year at UGA, turned into 4 years of living together and a lifetime of friendship. You'll catch B knowing EVERY word to EVERY song played on the big day.
Martin Fuentes
Best Man
Older brother to Carlos, Martin is truly the perfect example of a big brother and best man. Like all siblings, their relationship has evolved over the years. From (sometimes physically) fighting over who gets to sit shotgun to giving each other life advice, the two have formed an irreplaceable bond. Nowadays you can find Martin at the airport bar waiting on a flight to his next site inspection or at the park with his daughter Sophie. On the big day, you will find Martin attempting to sing songs he doesn't know and gracing us with his awful dancing.
Madison Schrama
Bridesmaid
Also known as Mads! Freshman year walking buddy turned into a bestie! Maddie and Mitzi met at the UGA dance department bonding over LONG walks to and from Dance and the glorious Mell hall (sarcasm). You might catch Mads, Becs and Mit doing a little dance together on the big day!
Cooper Costel
Best Man
Cooper aka Coop, UGAScoops, Pooper, etc. crossed paths with Carlos during rush week freshman year of college. When scrawny, backwards hat, nike-tee wearing Cooper decided to rush Phi Psi, they instantly hit it off as pledge brothers. Since then, they have been inseparable even with living halfway across the country from each other. You can find Cooper sitting at the bar with a fitness beer (Michelob Ultra) talking to or educating somebody about miscellaneous (and mostly useless) sports facts.
Rebecca Patsalos
Bridesmaid
Also knows as Becs- the free spirit of the group! Travel queen and aerial queen, Mitzi and Becca bonded over years of rehearsals, long hours, climbing silks and getting quite the set of bruises from the hoop. You might catch Becs dancing away with Maddie and Mit or taking her famous naps.
Pierce Blanchard
Groomsman
Meeting each other in the 5th grade, Pierce and Carlos have been great friends for over 15 years. From the various high school antics that took place in the Blanchard basement to navigating adult life, the pair have been through it all. On the big day, Pierce will be found on the dance floor with a whiskey + mountain dew in his hand and his tie around his head.
Emily Welsh

Reed Blanchard
Groomsman
Reed and Carlos have known each other since the 5th grade and have been best of friends ever since.

Michael McCauley
Groomsman
Another lifelong friend formed in middle school, Mike and Carlos have been great friends for 15+ years. At UGA, Mike was the groups favorite bartender since we could walk out with the same amount of cash we had when we walked in. Now working and living in NYC, Mike's day is normally full of sending the group terrible memes and talking about how he is a banker.
Mallory Thomas
Bridesmaid
Also known as Mal pal! A friendship that started unexpectedly but one Mitzi quickly realized she couldn't live without. Mal and Mit always say it isn't about the length of time of friendship, it's the friendship within that time that counts. You might catch Mit and Mal doing a little "sad cat fish" on the dance floor- when you see it, you'll know!
Vinny Merino
Groomsman
Meeting in the youth football days alongside many of the other groomsmen, Vinny and Carlos have been great friends for years. Widely known for his ability to put our friends through foldable tables while wearing his Stone Cold Steve Austin vest, it wont be a surprise if/when it happens on the big day. Now a practicing lawyer, he will likely be found giving one of our friends much needed legal advice.
Julia Cione
Bridesmaid
A true QUEEN! Julia and Mitzi met Julia when Julia's Fiance, Reed, and Carlos were roomies. From late night youtube concerts to shared love for wine/chill nights, Mitzi is SO thankful to have Julia as a bestie in Dallas and having weddings one month apart!
Tommy Mixon
Groomsman
Meeting through mutual friends at UGA, Tommy and Carlos quickly became great friends during college. After many nights in the Sandbar basement and eventually being Dallas residents together, the two have built a fantastic friendship over the last 7+ years. On the big day, Tommy and his wife Claudia will be found letting lose on the dance floor since they will be baby-free for the weekend.
Anna Huff
Bridesmaid
Dallas became a lot smaller when Mitzi met Anna! An instant bond, shared love for Sushi, margs, and their place of work- Avara. Anna's calming nature keeps Mit levelheaded during ALL the planning as she is ALSO planning her wedding!
Brian Clark
Groomsman
Brian and Carlos met playing youth football in the 4th grade. Both being on the chubbier side, they had side-by-side roles on the offensive line and were virtually inseperable all throughout middle & highschool. Through years of wreaking havoc at his house after school and throughout the neighborhood over the weekends (Sorry Ms. Monica), the two formed an unbreakable bond. You'll catch Dr. Clark busting a move on the dance floor with his wife Caroline.
Edna Fuentes

Cameron DiLoreto
Groomsman
Cam and Carlos met in college when he came to visit Cooper one weekend. The two instantly bonded over similar interests and became and continue to be incredibly close friends. Cam LOVES to travel and has spent months/years abroad with his wife Katie. On the big day, Cam will be found multiple rum & cokes deep yelling at somebody about a very trivial topic. Fun fact; their dog (Lilo) is Rango's sister!
Alexa Anderson
Bridesmaid
When Mitzi met Alexa she instantly gained a sis! From beach trips, to graduations, Christmas vacays and everything in between Alexa and Mit have a blast. The best wife to Mitzi's brother and the BEST sis in law!
Kyle Greco
Groomsman
Greco and Carlos met while at UGA, and like many of the other groomsmen, the two bonded over many nights in the Sandbar basement and Southern Standard. Greco oftentimes claims he is responsible for Carlos' life as he was there when him and Mitzi met as well as the one who got him his first job at a bar. On the big day, he will be found at the bar holding somebody hostage with a conversation about New Jersey.
Zach Anderson
Officiant
When Carlos and Mitzi were deciding who would officiate their wedding, they both immediately knew who would be best. Mitzi and Carlos knew they wanted someone who knew them well, a great public speaker, and someone super special. A witty, silly, intelligent, caring and honorable man- Zach is perfect for the job! Mitzi and Carlos are so THANKFUL to have such a special person taking on this role! Plus Mitzi might be a little biased since Zach is her brother.
