Purity & William
Wedding Party
Krista Ronk
Maid of Honor
Krista & I have been BFFs since age 8, but we might as well be sisters. We've shared many great moments together in life and I could not be more happy to have her beside me in the greatest moment of my life. <3
Michael Kuffel
Best Man
Michael and I have known each other since age 5 or 6 so naturally he had to be my best man on my big day. He has given me 3 stick and poke tattoos (talk about a bonding experience) and I gave him the shitty palm tree tattoo on his hand that you will see on the wedding day. #those who tattoo together, stay together.
Paige Kubenka
Bridesmaid
Meeting people online might be a trend in my life since I met Paige on Twitter and bonded over 5 Seconds of Summer and Harry Styles. We've had many long FaceTime calls with lots of laughing and she has been so supportive of William's and mine relationship. She comes all the way from Texas to bring her shining smile on our bright and beautiful day!
Jose Vera
Groomsman
Jose and I become friends when I marched up to him in 5th grade and asked if he wanted to be friends and surprisingly the homie said yes! I was just as surprised when he said yes when I asked him to be my groomsman too! #LosPueblosGang
Vanessa Hernandez
Bridesmaid
Vanessa is the cousin to William although they grew up so closely they might as well be considered siblings. Vanessa and I work together as teachers and since then we have gotten closer and created a beautiful friendship. She is always more than willing to go out of the way for us, she even brought us food and toilet paper when I had COVID for the second time. I am super excited to be related to this beautiful person!
Josh Kelley
Groomsman
Josh (a.k.a. Joshy, a.k.a. Polar Bear, a.k.a. the Freekick god) is a part of our lil quartet squad and is a super chill, dope dude with really nice hair. He is really a flexible and reliable whenever you need him so of course I knew I could rely on him to help celebrate my wedding day.
Nataly Hernandez
Bridesmaid
Nataly is William's younger sister and my go to person when it comes to doing my nails (yes, I called her once upset because I could not get nail polish off). She and I have had many Criminal Minds binges in the car and much picking on each other. She also had me get on my knees when I asked her to be a bridesmaid. so there is that.
Roberto Hernandez
Groomsman
Roberto has known William since he was born (and that is not a joke since Roberto is William's dad, so technically he has known William before he was born). Now he will get to stand beside his son as he gets married (cue the emotions!)
Lilly Hernandez
Bridesmaid
Lilly is William's youngest sister and can be a total mood. She typically only wears shorts and a hoodie but somehow I managed to convince her to where a dress at our wedding. She and William basically have the same personalities so it's perfect that we will be sisters-in-laws!
Sam Naeher
Groomsman
Sam and I have been friends since freshman year (he's part of our quartet that includes Josh and Jose too). He is undoubtedly the most book smart person I know but also probably the most uncoordinated person. I really hope he makes it through the wedding day without an accident or a bloody nose!
Regina Thomas
Bridesmaid
Seeing that she is my sister, I have known her her whole life. To me, she is still my baby sister even though she is now a teenager but she is such a sweetheart and has a beautiful, caring soul. I am so happy that she has agreed to come celebrate our special day in a special way.
Joel Thomas
Groomsman
Brother to the bride, brother-in-law to the groom, but more importantly he comes with some impeccable country swag!
James Hernandez
Ring Bearer
James is the brother of the groom and brings a one-of-a-kind personality to the wedding. Both he and William have the ability to talk your ear off about Pokemon and Spiderman. He has 10/10 comebacks and one line jokes that will leave you pissing your pants.
Philip Thomas
Ring Bearer
Philip brings a whole lot of energy, swag, and sass. But he has the biggest heart on planet earth and will not hesitate to give hugs and share smiles with everyone he comes in contact with.
Grace Hart
Flower Girl
The cutest, steeziest, and *coolest* member of the bridal party and niece to William, we welcome Grace as our lovely flower girl!
