Wedding Party
Emily
Bride
Everyone's favorite bride/ER nurse/ Fur Mama. Emily can't wait to marry Luis and is excited to have her beautiful bridal party stand beside her on the big day.
Luis
Groom
Everyone's favorite groom/ future law enforcement officer/ Fur Dad. Luis can't wait to marry the love of his life and is excited to have his "bros" beside him on the big day.
Andy
Maid of Honor
Emily and Andy have been best friends since elementary school. Andy is a super cool Disney loving, tik tok making middle school teacher. The two have shared so many memories and their friendship has only grown with time. There was no doubt in Emily's mind that Andy would be the perfect maid of honor, and based on the impeccably organized excel spreadsheet she made for the bachelorette party, Emily was right. Not only that, but Andy was also the first person Emily told when she started dating Luis! She was also the honorary photographer the day Emily and Luis got engaged and was arguably the most excited person there, (besides the happy couple of course!)
Danielle
Bridesmaid
Danielle and Emily have been friends since elementary school and they share a very special bond. Danielle is probably the coolest person you will ever meet, no doubt about it. She is a sassy, sweet, dancing queen and her Croc game gives Emily's a run for its money! The two have taken many family vacations together and have shared countless fun adventures, and concerts. Emily is so blessed to have Danielle as a friend and honorary sister, that she even got a tattoo in Danielle's honor. She will undoubtably be the cutest bridesmaid standing beside Emily on her big day, and rumor has it she will be rocking some crocs with her dress.
Alyssa
Bridesmaid
Alyssa and Emily have been friends since elementary school! Since their houses were walking distance apart, the two used to spend hours (and I mean hours) over summer hanging out together. These memories include playing lots of Sims 2, obsessing over One Direction and playing a ton of Wii Fit. Lyss has always been a city girl at heart. She recently moved to New York to live out her dreams, which now gives Em an excuse to travel to the Big Apple. Despite living across the country Lyss is a true friend and didn't hesitate to book a flight home, so she could be a part of Em's big day!
Morgan
Bridesmaid
Morgan and Emily have also been friends since elementary school! Morgan and Emily have shared many memories over the years, including staying up late choreographing intricate dance routines in Morgan's living room and trying out for the freshman cheerleading team. Although they didn't make the team (Em is still salty about that), they still were able to share a love for dance by performing in the Studio C June shows together! While there probably won't be time to choreograph another dance, look for the two on the dance floor at the wedding, busting out moves like the old days.
Zullay
Bridesmaid
Zullay and Emily have actually known each other since preschool, so their friendship goes way back. There are lots of cute photos of the two tiny tots playing together and sharing fun preschool memories. As the two grew, so did their friendship and they have continued to share memories over the years. Zullay always used to try and help Emily perfect her Spanish speaking abilities, and now Luis gets to take over where she left off! Zullay is such a genuine human being, with a beautiful singing voice. Emily is so excited to have a life long friend be able to stand beside her on her special day.
Alejandro
Best Man
I couldn’t think of a better choice for a Best Man. He’s quite literally had my back since day one. We share the love of video games, movies and all things pop culture. It’s clear that he got the looks and I got the brains, but we both got our family's heart. He’s currently working towards a degree in viticulture and considers himself a wine connoisseur. He likes piña coladas and getting caught in the rain. Ladies be careful with this stud out on the dance floor.
Eric
Groomsman
Although we share the same last name, nothing besides love and friendship makes us family. It was bromance at first sight when I met Eric. He’s not only an amazing friend, but has been an amazing father and partner to his family. He comes from a long line of Mexican Vikings, hair and beard like Odin, body like el Chapulin Colorado. He may not like large bodies of water, but he can sure drink large bodies of alcohol and still show up to work like a true Viking.
Zach
Groomsman
Zack has been a close friend since the day we first met. It was our love of all things geek and Marvel that brought our paths together. Our love of golf has only brought our friendship closer, just not the ball closer to the hole. Hopefully soon we’ll both be working for CHP, Zack as a Dispatcher and myself as an Officer. When that day comes we’ll be like Captain America and Bucky “I’m with you till the end of the line”.
Adam
Groomsman
He's my soon to be older brother. Adam and I share the same experience being older brothers. He may have had it harder with a little sister, but nonetheless has been an amazing brother to Emily. Both of us have always wanted another sibling, myself an older brother and he a brother in general. Adam is the perfect example of "started from the bottom now we here". Working his way up from a simple building engineer apprentice, to now being the Chief Engineer in charge of his own building in San Francisco. I look forward to the day I can officially call you a brother and can only hope to live up to your example.
Raul
Groomsman
Before becoming close friends, Raul and I were both EMT partners working for an ambulance company. For a little over a year we worked 24 hour shifts together, driving all throughout northern California. Our first shift was a 16 hr drive from Napa County to a Native American reservation in the northern most part of California. I remember driving lights and sirens down 101, blasting “Move B**** Get Out the Way”, as well as rocking out to some Naruto intro songs. During our lucky nights where we wouldn’t get any calls, we would have our marathon video game runs, playing Rocket League, Doom, and COD. Our close friendship was cut short when he had to move to Colorado, but our love for gaming has still kept us connected. I look forward to the days he and his wife Alyssa come to visit as well as more Colorado trips to go visit them.
Arlo Blue
Ring Bearer
Faster than a speeding tortoise, cannot jump to save his life, and can sleep 3 times the recommended amount of sleep per day. He is the cutest and laziest tub of lard you’ll ever meet. Our good boy Arlo has brought us laughs, joy and is the one who started our little family. He was once dubbed by an Irishman at the dog park as “Rubbish”, and has since lived up to that expectation. He completes our family and has been a good big brother to his sister cats Goose and Maverick. Look for Arlo rocking a tux and most likely napping his way through the wedding day!
