Wedding Party
Carina Barnes
Maid of Honor
Sister of the bride. Carina has always been Joy’s number one supporter, from cross-country training in high school to being an extra closet when Joy didn’t “have anything to wear”. Carina cherishes her little sister and is overwhelmed with pride to stand by her side and witness the public commitment to her forever love.
Ankit Sabhaya
Best Man
Grooms best friend and brewery buddy. Ankit is someone who is always trustworthy and dependable when it comes to life advice, beer, and being down to be goofy. Ankit is more of a brother than a friend.
Trinity Torres
Bridesmaid
Joy’s bestie since first grade. Their older sisters were close, so naturally they became playmates while the older girls were doing their own thing. Trinity has always kept Joy’s best interest at heart through life’s ups and downs, someone Joy can always lean on and call for anything. Joy thanks God every single day for giving someone so caring and loyal in her life.
Kishan Sabhaya
Groomsman
Grooms little brother from another. Kishan is ambitious with a great heart. Theres not many things Ralf loves doing more than sitting down with Kishan with a cold beer and reminiscing about the bright future.
Kareena Martin
Bridesmaid
One of Joy’s oldest friends but also a sister from another mister - Bailey Barnes as we liked to say. Kareena and Joy have been in each other’s lives since Joy was 5 years old and stuck ever since. During the summers, Kareena and Joy would hangout every day - creating gymnastic routines, baking competitions, countless sleepovers, the opportunities felt endless. As they have gotten older, Kareena and Joy’s friendship stands even stronger. It is most fitting for her to stand by Joy’s side.
Clayton Barnes II
Groomsman
Big bro to be! Not many can say that their brother in law has a Doctorate in Math, and Ralf couldn’t be happier because he's absolutely atrocious with numbers. Ralf very much enjoys the banter & great conversations they always have regardless of the topic.
Abigail Torres
Bridesmaid
A true rockstar when it comes to God, having a good time, throws down in the kitchen, and full of knowledge. Although Joy and Abbi have known each other for many years, their friendship flourished once they became workout buddies over 5 years ago. Abbi has been a source of love, kindness, and a great listening ear. Joy’s honored to have this woman stand by her side.
Matthew Meyers
Groomsman
Grooms Battle Buddy. If there’s ever a zombie apocalypse there’s no one else Ralf would rather have looking over his 6. A true brother with a golden heart. Also one of the best cooks he knows.
Taylor Camp
Bridesmaid
One of Joy’s most treasured friends. They met in nursing school at Northwest University, with Taylor’s kind heart and similar personalities, they gravitated towards each other. Tay has always inspired Joy with her work ethic, genuine heart, love for adventures, carbs and coffee! Joy’s excited to continue this bond and for her to be a part of this special day.
Jaytee Teav
Groomsman
The Cambodian brother. Over the years Ralf has very much enjoyed all of the double dates with Joy and Carina. Jaytee has been a key part to helping Joy and Ralf branch out and be more outdoorsy. Looking forward to more adventures in the future.
Kathleen Nieves-Burrier
Bridesmaid
Joy met Kat in nursing school and they quickly hit it off. Kat is known for her honesty and always sharing her genuine thoughts in the kindest of ways. Whenever Joy and Kat are together it’s common to hear constant laughing and sassy remarks, an all around great time, so it’s a sure thing for Kat to be included.
Savannah Bruce
Bridesmaid
Joy’s very first roommate in college at SPU, now a forever friend. Even if years go by, they pick up right where they leave off like no time has passed by. Savannah is Joy’s mirror of goofy, weird, spunky, and all around a great time. Joy could not have seen this day without her sidekick.
Sumiran Poudel
Groomsman
Believe it or not Ralf used to be able to run a mile in 5 mins 12secs, Sumiran knew that Ralf. First week of Cross Country practice in high school and they instantly clicked and have been friends ever since. They can go a year without much talking but the day they reconnect it’s like no time has passed. The amount of inside jokes Ralf and Sumiran have are unmatched.
Morgen Peugh
Groomswoman
The ultimate bro-gal. The Office sure is a popular show, but not many people fan to the level that Morgen and Ralf do. From day one, Morgen has always been the most genuine and one you can count on to always keep it real. Joy and Ralf love spending time with Morgen as she’s a ball of energy and someone with a contagious personality. They’re thankful to have Morgen in their lives and excited to have her be a part of this special day.
