Best Man
It was easy choosing Josh as my best man. He isn't my only blood brother but he is also very much a father figure. From teaching me how to hold a boxing stance, to helping me learn how to drive stick shift, Josh has always been the ideal older brother. Tough love is an understatement to say the least, Josh and I fought about the little things but loved for the tough things. I can vividly recall multiple times Josh saved my butt. His entire life he has always looked after his younger brother so well. Josh has blessed me with another opportunity to be a uncle with his two precious babies Iverie and Isabella. Josh if you're reading this, I love you my dear brother and I am excited for more guidance from you!!
Maid of Honor
My Syssa! It was a no brainer making my sister my maid of honor. It's an honor for myself even to be her little sister. Alyssa and I have always been close, even though we're 7 years apart in age. I always felt like I had two moms growing up because she was so involved as a big sister. She's always been there to tell me what not to do, practice her wrestling moves on me, and drive my barbies down the stairs in her RC car. But she was also there to give advice about what not to do because she's already been there; to let me tag along with her even on dates as soon as she got her license; and to play with me so I always had a friend. Long story short, she's always been there when I need her. I love you Syssa!

Ernesto my dear friend, we have gone from little boys to men. God blessed me with a built in best friend as a cousin. I have learned so much from you! From encouraging me to embrace my Mexican culture to talking my ear off about investing and insurance, you are truly brilliant. I love you man, and I am so blessed to have someone I can count on for great conversations, crazy football games and loud laughs!
Bridesmaid
I met Nicole on the first day of 5th grade at a new school. I walked into my new classroom and she turned around and invited me to sit next to her. We've been like sisters ever since. Through boy drama, family drama, and school drama, Nicole has been my go-to for everything. She is a spunky, wild, make you laugh out loud for hours kind of social butterfly (the complete opposite of me). But she brought me out of my shell; she taught me to be courageous and to never care what people think.

Hennessey Venom!! My brother! One of my most loyal friend, I am confident Henry would risk himself to save a friend. That is how truly loyal you are my friend. Thank you for long days at the golfing range, weekend camping trips and spotting all me all those times we lifted together. You are a strong, smart guy who will conquer everything he puts his mind to. I appreciate you forever my friend!

I made an instant best friend freshman year when we had every single class together, and man did our teachers regret putting us together!! When I need someone to cry with, when I need someone to go to Pismo for donuts with, when I need someone to just drive with and sing at the top of our lungs, she's there! Miranda has always been able to bounce back from anything that life throws her way and I am truly blessed by her friendship in helping me do the same.

Qp my longest friend!! Sheesh man, look how far we have come. February 2009 in our fourth grade class is when our friendship kicked off. Your mom brought cupcakes for the whole class and I thought to myself that guy is kinda cool. I then found out you lived near me and the rest is history. We experienced everything together, from first day of high school to being my walking partner at graduation in 2017. You made everything in between fun my brother. Our first tattoos together to sneaking into apartment pools, the party never stopped with you my friend. I am so proud of where you are and how far you've come. Now you have your own family and live across the world. Nothing I can do will ever allow me to forget the memories we have together. Love you bro.

B, I have a special place in my heart for you. Brenna has always been known to be the friend who can make anyone laugh. She laughs so much it was almost shocking the first time I saw her cry! I can always count on Brenna for humor in an awkward situation, blunt honesty when I need it, and for showing up in every way possible for the people she loves. She loves without limits. Without a doubt, Brenna is one of my most loyal friends. I appreciate and love you so much Brenna!!

Tori Squared! That was the awful nickname we gave ourselves in elementary school. I'm so grateful to have gotten to know Tori all these years. Through good times and bad times, she's been the person I call when stuff goes down. From being the "mom friend" of the group to becoming a mother, you've handled everything with such confidence and grace, Tor. I'm so so happy that I get to have you standing up there with me!
