Wedding Party

The Wedding Website of Savannah Bendik and Nicholas Occiano
Meet our amazing family and friends of the wedding party and where in the world they would like to travel!

Paul Sy

Best Man

"I would like to travel to Japan. (Where I currently live)" Paul is the Groom's cousin and quite possibly considered his very first best friend. They always played together, whether it was video games or games outside. At every family party you could expect to find the two of them together in their "club," causing some sort of mischief. Though time has passed and they don't play the games they used to, they always go back to where they left off and never missed a beat. Nik is so grateful that Paul is standing by his side for such a special day and he cannot imagine having anyone else.


Sierra Giordano

Maid of Honor

“My dream place to travel to would be Bora Bora ❤️” Sierra is the Bride's younger sister and is also the partner of Jonathan (groomsman). She has known the Bride since the day she was born, even if she doesn't remember meeting her for the first time! They might've had their share of sibling rivalry growing up, as sisters typically do, but have always been close and have grown much closer throughout the recent years! Savannah could not imagine her wedding without her sister and built-in best friend by her side!

James Occiano

Groomsman

"New Orleans is where I would like to go." James is the oldest of the Grooms 2 brothers. As kids, they loved to play outdoors and battle against each other (and with/against Paul [best man]) in their favorite video games, especially Pokemon! Although they don't play video games anymore, they are still close and Nik is very glad to have James as a groomsman.


Cheyenne Theodorson

Matron of Honor

“My dream vacation destination is Scotland." Cheyenne is the Bride's cousin, or cousin-in-law, if we are being technical! Cheyenne became part of the family when she married the Bride's cousin, Austin (groomsman), in 2023! Cheyenne has been so supportive and an awesome addition to the family! She and Savannah have been growing closer. She has been helping her and keeping her sane in her bridal journey! Savannah is so excited to have Cheyenne stand next to her on her special day!

Derick Santiago

Groomsman

"I would like to travel to Iceland" Derick is the Grooms good friend and coworker at AdventHealth hospital. He has gotten to know the Bride and Groom (along with their 3 cats and 3 dogs) for the last couple of years. Nik is so happy to know such a reliable and trustworthy coworker, petsitter (to the crazy animal zoo lol), and more importantly, a terrific friend! We are so glad he is a part of this special day as one of our groomsman!


Nicky Patel

Bridesmaid

“My dream vacation would be Spain or Morocco! Maybe the UAE too!” Nicky has been best friends with the Bride since their freshman year of college at Saint Leo. They were roommates and were inseparable throughout their first year! She has always been an amazing friend and their friendship has continued to stay strong and grow throughout the near decade they have been friends, even if they live states apart! Savannah is so excited to have Nicky, one of her since-college-best friend's standing by her side for her special day!

Jonathan Ponce

Groomsman

"I want to go to Italy." Jonathan is the partner of Sierra (maid of honor) and they are the parents of Angel (ring bearer) and Alejandro. The groom has gotten to know Jonathan more these past couple of years, and he is very supportive of his favorite NFL team (GO DOLPHINS!). Nik is very glad that Jonathan is a part of this special day as a groomsman!


Mary Richter

Bridesmaid

“Dream place to travel to would be around the Caribbean islands!” Mary has also been best friends with the Bride since their freshman year of college at Saint Leo. Her and the Bride were involved in many campus activities together! She has always been such a great friend and their friendship has continued to grow for the last (almost) decade, even when living states away from one another! Savannah is so excited to have Mary, her other since-college-best friend, standing by her side for her big day!

Austin Theodorson

Groomsman

"I would travel to Germany for Oktoberfest" Austin is the Bride's cousin and husband of the matron of honor, Cheyenne. He and the Groom have known each other for the past couple years and have been getting to know each other better over the years during many family gatherings. Austin has also been a big part of the Bride's life and the two of them were always close growing up, always playing together when in each other's company, whether it was video games, or hair salon. Nik is looking forward to having his new cousin-in-law standing beside him on his big day! (Savannah is also excited about it too!)


Heidi Lange

Bridesmaid

“If I could travel anywhere in the world I would go to Greece!” Heidi has been the Bride's best friend since pre-school. She was the Bride's first best friend and they were always inseparable! Although Heidi did move out of state during their childhood, her and Savannah never lost touch and rekindled their friendship over the years! Savannah stood by Heidi in her wedding this past Fall, and she cannot wait to have her oldest best friend stand by her side for her own wedding!

Myles

Ring Bearer

"I want to go to Target. Cause Target is where I get my new bike" Myles is the son of Joan (Grooms cousin) and Mitch. He is SUPER excited to come down to Florida to be a ring bearer! (And to see the Groom and Brides house lol!) Nik and Savannah are also super excited to have Myles come down all the way from California to be a ring bearer for our wedding day!


Angel

Ring Bearer

Angel wants to travel to Target. Angel is the nephew of the Bride and Groom and the Godson of the Bride. He is the son of Sierra (maid of honor) and Jonathan (groomsman). The Bride and Groom have known Angel since before he was born and have watched him grow up! Auntie Savannah and Uncle Nik are both so excited to have Angel be a part of their special day!

Isla

Flower Girl

Isla wants to travel to Asia. Isla is the daughter of Abby (Grooms cousin) and Charles. Nik and Savannah are so happy to have Isla as a flower girl and are very happy that her and her family are coming down all the way from California to celebrate their wedding day! She is very excited to be the flower girl!
