Wedding Party
Miriame Moussa Plumey
Maid of Honor
What to know about her: She is the person I can truly be myself with. Our bond is so strong that I share with her my deepest thoughts, some that could potentially get me in trouble if they were to be revealed to others. Fun fact: Don’t dance too close to her on the dance floor, she might knock you out with her booty.
Eric Ching
Best Man
What to know about him: My older brother, who is always available to help out the family. He is quiet during the day and gets rowdy at night. In the words of Kobe, “A different animal, but the same beast.” Fun fact: I thought he would get married first, but guess what little bro has him beat.
Amélie Buzzi
Bridesmaid
What to know about her: She is THE loyal friend, never afraid to speak the truth, she will always bring me back to my roots. Though she loves me dearly, she is over this wedding preparation! Fun fact: Don’t let her drink too much, she might end up with an underwear on her head in the middle of the night.
Max Coombs
Groomsman
What to know about him: Literally, my twin. We like the same things, have the same sense of style and humor, etc. He is someone that I can hang out with every day. However, now I am married, so you know..we can’t. Fun fact: Forever Flora and I’s third wheel. We already have plans to have him live with us for the rest of our lives.
Nina Pumpalovic
Bridesmaid
What to know about her: A person who selflessly sacrifices everything for the people she cares about. When it comes to celebrations, she never misses a single one, but interestingly, she is always the last one to make her way in. Fun fact: She is a big Harry Potter fan! Ask her about one of her tattoos, the proof is right on her skin.
Austin Tran
Groomsman
What to know about him: Our friendship has been the longest, and no matter how long we don’t speak, he is someone that I can always count on. He is my most educated friend but trolls the most. Sometimes I can’t believe he is a doctor based on the stupid things he says. Fun fact: As an optometrist, he gave his fiancé an eye infection. Don’t worry. I’ll still be his patient, though.
Déborah Prestavoine
Bridesmaid
What to know about her: She is like an older sister to me, always here to teach me life hacks, to give me advice (that she does not apply to herself) and always down to help me plan anything. Fun fact: She might have more Pinterest boards and Excel sheet for this wedding organization than I do.
David Kao
Groomsman
What to know about him: A person who helped me get my footing professionally in NYC. He is my most organized and productive friend, who sends calendar invites for everything and gets upset if you don’t plan outings with him on Excel. Fun fact: He wears the big brother hat and loves to give Flora and I (mostly Flora) life lessons.
Dr. Zephaniah Seung
Officiant
What to know about him: Patrick's cousin, who has been counseling us throughout our relationship. He is a man of wisdom with a strong faith in God and has helped us grow stronger spiritually and become better spouses. Fun Fact: Before becoming a pastor, he wanted to become a rapper and taught Patrick & his brother Eric about rap culture.
