Wedding Party
Ally McMillan
Matron of Honor
Ally is like Paulina's 4th sister...in fact, she's been around longer than some of Paulina's actual sisters! They met back in Mrs. Becker's 2nd grade class at Sts. Peter & Paul school in New Braunfels, TX. Although life took them in many different directions growing up, they always found their way back to each other and now reside, once again, in the same beloved city they met and grew up in. Paulina stood by Ally's side as her Maid of Honor when she married Hunter back in 2021, and the couple are now proud parents to Luke and Baby McMillan #2 expected to arrive March 2026. Ally remains Paulina's most steadfast friend, and she couldn't imagine this day without her by her side.
Summer Bednarz
Maid of Honor
Summer and Paulina have been inseparable since their first days together at Texas Christian University. From travels through the majestic Scottish Highlands; to black sand Hawaiin beaches; through ancient Roman streets; to postgrad roommates on opposite schedules; and always keeping in touch when they lived miles apart from each other, Summer and Paulina's friendship only grew stronger with time. Summer knows Paulina better than most, and remains her steady rock through it all. P.S. Ask Summer about her recent world travels and 500 mile pilgrimage! This girl always has a story ready to share!
Matt Villanea
Bestest Mensch
Matt and QSi first met as baby EMTs on the streets of LA, surviving absolute mayhem, endless nights, and the kind of trauma-bonding only new medics truly understand. When Matt’s partner Jenn (also one of the groom’s closest friends) went out on injury, QSi filled in—and what started as a stand-in partner became a lifelong friendship. Matt and QSi live 1500 miles apart now, but that hasn't stopped them from surprise international adventures, camping their way through national parks, and making poor decisions at water crossings!
Chi Tran
Groomsman
Chi is QSi's younger brother and opposite: outgoing, social, and living the beach life in San Diego. While QSi had to blaze the trail as the firstborn, Chi got the second-child discount—fewer rules, smoother ride, and plenty of time to perfect his poker face. Rounding out the wedding party, he’s the younger brother who somehow makes everything look easy. QSi and Paulina are so grateful he was able to be their impromptu engagement photographer!
