Wedding Party
Lexes Christopherson
Bridesmaid
Lexes and I are only 18 months apart, but while we grew up side by side, we somehow turned out to be complete opposites. As adults, though, our differences have only brought us closer together. I truly admire Lexes for her incredible creativity-her artistic talent always amazes me, from her beautiful artwork to her impressive cosplay costumes. She’s confident, wise, and somehow manages to juggle it all, including her demanding career as a county clerk, where she handles serious business with grace and professionalism. Lexes also has the biggest heart. She’s a loving pet mom to Connor the cat and Mosie, a sweet black lab she rescued from a tough situation and gave a happy home. She’s always there for her friends and anyone lucky enough to be close to her, offering thoughtful advice and genuine care. Sometimes I joke that she’s the “older” sister, because she always seems to have it all together-even more than I do plus she’s taller than me! I’ve never met anyone quite like my sister, and I’m so grateful for the bond we share. Lexes, I love you so much, and I’m so glad you’re by my side for this special day.
Sean Myers
Best Man
My Brother, My Best Man: Sean Growing up, Sean and I had our differences, especially with the challenges of having a sick mom. But losing her brought us closer than ever before. It’s in that shared loss that we’ve come to truly understand the meaning of brotherhood-as adults, on our own, supporting each other through life’s ups and downs. Sean has always been an inspiration to me. Watching him excel in sports, especially making varsity wrestling as a freshman, motivated me to push myself as an athlete. But beyond the athlete, I’ve seen him grow in incredible ways. From the brother who loved fast food and video games to the devoted stepdad who loves Ruby as his own, Sean has embraced a whole new chapter of life with open arms. And then there’s Sarah-his soulmate-who completes this amazing journey he’s on. Seeing Sean find love and build a family has been nothing short of inspiring. I’m honored to have Sean as my brother and even more honored to have him standing beside me as my best man on this special day.
Paige Kemp
Bridesmaid
Meet Paige: The Best Sister-in-Law a Girl Could Ask For If you know Luke, you know his amazing older sister Paige. She’s not just a soon-to-be mama, she’s also the reason Luke and I ever met-though I have to admit, I wasn’t quite sold at first. Back in 2018, Paige tried to set us up, but I let some questionable middle school photos talk me out of it. Little did I know what fate (and Paige’s matchmaking skills) had in store for me! Paige has always been a force of nature. We first became friends working together at at restaurant my mom’s is a general manager, where she was my mom’s right hand before moving on to chase her dreams. She’s now a total boss at Charles Schwab, climbing the ladder with her signature drive, motivation, and grace. I’ve always admired her work ethic and her ability to balance ambition with kindness. Family means everything to Paige, and she honors her mom’s memory with so much strength and beauty since her mom’s passing in 2020. She keeps her spirit alive in everything she does, and I feel so lucky to be part of that legacy. Whether she’s planning a Disney adventure, picking out the absolute best gifts, or bringing her signature class to every room she enters, Paige makes life brighter for everyone around her. She’s the best sister, the best friend, and now, I get to call her my sister-in-law. I am so grateful for her, and I love her more than words can say.
Aston Christopherson
Groomsman
Meet My Brother-in-Law: Aston From the moment I met your family, Aston, it was clear to me that you are the glue that holds everyone together. Watching you grow up over the years has truly been a pleasure, and I feel lucky to have witnessed your journey. Your passion for MMA is inspiring-your talent and dedication shine through as you keep ranking up and chasing your dreams. I can’t wait to see where life takes you after high school, and I have no doubt you’ll achieve incredible things. Thank you for being such an important part of the family and for bringing everyone closer together. Aston has the biggest heart. Whether he's having deep conversation or cracking jokes while playing a after dinner card game. He always puts others before him while being a very busy young man in high-school, managing MMA and his very first job. His future is very bright as he talks about it often wanting to go pro with his MMA or taking over his dad's HVAC business.
Trinidy Marin
Maid of Honor
From the moment we met in kindergarten at Rock Ridge Elementary, Trinidy Marin has been my rock. Through the halls of Mesa Middle and Douglas County High in Castle Rock, our friendship never wavered-we’ve been inseparable since 2005! Now, Trinidy is a wonderful wife to Ceaser Marin and a loving new mom to their precious baby boy Isaiah in Grand Junction. We’re both Libras, obsessed with October and all things fall, and whether we’re being goofy or having deep, soul-baring conversations, there’s never a moment we don’t understand each other. Trinidy knows me better than anyone, and as we step into these new chapters-her as a mom and me as a bride to be-I couldn’t imagine anyone more perfect to stand by my side.
Derek Martinez
Groomsman
Derek & Luke met back in 2015, and from day one, it felt like we were two guys with the same mind. Our personalities just clicked-we’ve always joked that we’re basically the same person, and I still believe it’s true. He brought so much laughter and energy into my life, and his outgoing spirit has made every moment we’ve shared unforgettable. But what means the most is how him and his family were there for me when I needed it most-especially after my mom passed away in 2020. Your support, kindness, and the warmth of your family made all the difference during the toughest time in my life. I’ll never forget that. Derek is more than a friend-he’s a brother. Thanks for being there since day one, and for always having my back. I’m honored to have him by my side on my wedding day.
Isabel Selman
Bridesmaid
If you know me, you know Isabel-the tatted baddie with a heart of gold and the kind of energy that makes life feel like an adventure. She’s not just my partner-in-crime at The Style Lounge, she’s the reason I’m living my dream. When I was ready to throw in the towel on my career, Isabel was the one who pushed me, again and again, to keep studying, to try one more time, and to believe in myself enough to pass my state board test. Without her, I wouldn’t be where I am today. Working side by side with Isabel is something I’ll always cherish. She’s a true master of balayage and extensions-her attention to detail and the care she puts into every client inspires me every single day. I hope to be half the stylist she is! But Isabel is so much more than just a talented stylist. She’s the best big sister to her younger sister, a total mama’s girl, and has a beautiful, unbreakable bond with her mom. She’s also the only friend who can get me to watch football (and actually enjoy it!), and my go-to adventure buddy when the Colorado fall colors start to pop. Isabel is my tequila queen, always dragging me out on a Monday night to try a new spot or share a cocktail (or two). No matter how long it’s been, we always pick up right where we left off. She brings out the best in me-makes me want to be a better sister, a better daughter, a better stylist, and to say yes to new adventures. I’m so grateful for her friendship and can’t imagine this journey without her by my side.
Adrian Espinoza
Groomsman
Adrian and I first crossed paths in 2013, thanks to a mutual friend, and I’ve been grateful ever since. He’s the one who introduced me to my forever friends, shaping the circle that means so much to me today. Adrian’s dedication stands out in everything he does-from his honorable service in the military to his relentless work ethic. I truly look up to him; he’s always motivating those around him to push harder and aim higher. His clear mind and determination are inspiring-when Adrian sets his sights on something, he goes after it without hesitation. Of course, it’s not all serious with Adrian. His laugh is absolutely contagious, and his humor (especially those hilarious comebacks) keeps everyone on their toes. Whether he’s impressing everyone back in highschool with his dance moves or making us all smile with his famously bad singing, Adrian knows how to light up a room. I’m proud to call Adrian my friend, and even prouder to have him standing by my side on my wedding day.
Steven Kemp
Groomsman
Meet My Brother-in-Law: Steven From the very first day I met Steven, I knew he was the perfect match for my sister. His loud, outgoing personality and his playful, rebellious spirit-especially when it comes to keeping my sister on her toes-bring so much energy and laughter to our family. Steven’s unfiltered humor at family dinners is legendary. He always knows how to break the ice and make everyone feel at home, no matter the occasion. Beyond the jokes and laughter, I truly admire his drive and determination. He’s a goal-getter in every sense, always pushing himself to reach new heights-whether it was finishing his Master’s degree or chasing the next big achievement. With his dedication and heart, I have no doubt Steven will be an incredible father. Watching him set and crush his goals inspires everyone around him to do the same. I’m grateful to call Steven my brother-in-law, and even more grateful for the joy he brings to our family.
Megan Stengel
Bridesmaid
Megan is truly one of a kind. She’s a tattoo lover with a legendary pain tolerance, a fierce work ethic, and a heart for helping others-especially in her role as a 911 operator, where she saves lives every day. Recently, Megan and her fiancée celebrated buying their first home, giving their sweet dog Zena a backyard to explore and the perfect place to start their family. Through every milestone and challenge, Megan has always been my anchor-giving me rides when I needed them, building furniture with me late into the night, and never letting me fall, even at my lowest. No matter how much time passes, we always pick up right where we left off. Her strength and love inspire everyone around her, and I’m so grateful to have her in my life.
