Sanja & Randall
Wedding Party
Caitlin Silvus
Maid of Honor
Caitlin is the shrimp to Sanja's lobster. They've been roommates for three years now, and have shared just about everything together (tears, groceries, office desks, you name it). Ask her about her Big Sur marathon, she's really pumped for it!
Roy Royall
Best Man
The man, the myth, the legend; Roy Royall. My youngest brother, and my closest friend. Roy and I have often been compared to each other a lot, to which we deny together in unison with the exact same response and facial expression. Roy is an incredible young man, considerate, and very talented. However, don't let his infectious social aptitude mislead you, for he is also humble and soft spoken. Honored to have him as my best man.
Hannah Johnson
Bridesmaid
Hannah discipled Sanja for three years in college to deeply love Jesus and kombucha. She also gave Sanja her first ever plant, which is still healthy and thriving (praise GOD!). Half of the things you see on our registry came from hers, because she has such great taste (especially in bowls).
Cory Houston
Groomsman
Cory is my oldest brother, and the person I have looked up to the most in my life. I followed his passion for so many things. I respect and strive to match his work ethic in life, and I am looking forward to getting married and starting a family as he has. Now if I only I could match his immaculate facial hair...In all seriousness, thank you for your mentorship and council, honored to have the handyman himself as a groomsman.
Julia Cook
Bridesmaid
Julia is an avid pickleballer, coffee drinker, and pilates girl. She and Sanja have had each other's back as they navigate their first years working in full time ministry, which has been SUCH a gift. Julia also swam for UT in her time there, so she knows the student athlete grind!!!! #philippians4:13
Gavin Bateman
Groomsman
Gavin is currently engaged to my amazing sister Haley (Woohoo!), and one of my oldest friends. When I was 13 years old, you gave me that Charizard Pokémon card on my birthday, and the rest is history. Was it an attempt to win over the younger brother of your then girlfriend? Maybe. Did it work? Absolutely. Gavin, you are an awesome, considerate person, a great dungeon master, and the GOAT when it comes to audio engineering. Proud to be able to call you a groomsman, and one day soon, a brother!
Ashley Henry
Bridesman
Ashley is Sanja's sister-in-law, and has known her since she was 10 years old (meaning, she's seen Sanja go through puberty. Gross!). Ashley can quote just about any line from any Harry Potter movie, and will tear the dance floor up whenever the Backstreet Boys come on (as she should, am I right?).
Lorenzo Molina
Groomsman
Lorenzo has been my roommate for three years now! Lorenzo loves exercise science, is a passionate sports fan, has great taste in old music, loves dancing, watches anime with me, and is a fellow SpongeBob enthusiast. Lorenzo is wise beyond his years and is inspiring in his love and fear of the Lord. He's one of my dearest friends and a beloved brother in Christ. Be on the lookout for Lorenzo and me on the dance floor on May 13th, should be our best performance yet.
Taylor Villarreal
Bridesmaid
Taylor and Sanja used to be roommates in their little shoebox of an apartment known as the "Spice Cabinet". Taylor is currently in grad school for speech pathology, and married to fellow Star Wars nerd, Jared Villarreal. She is spunky and knows Taylor Swift songs all too well (ha ha).
Isaiah Dodson
Groomsman
Isaiah is my other awesome roommate of three years. In times of crisis, it is Isaiah who has kept me sane. Thank you for allowing me to vent, for my venting is not nearly as entertaining as yours. Isaiah inspires me in his persevering hope in Christ. Holding fast to what is true when the world around him says otherwise. From the classroom to the workplace, from church to home, Isaiah is a genuine people's person that excels socially. Don't play "Secret Hitler" with him. Isaiah, I will miss knowing you're awake from the Nicki Minaj lyrics preceding your descent down the stairway.
Addie Mcintire
Bridesmaid
Not many people can say they're close enough with their bosses to have them be in their bridal party, but Addie isn't just any other boss. She is a kind friend, amazing concert buddy (ask her about our Paramore experience at ACL!!!), and can make any crowd of people laugh. Everyone loves Addie.
Nestor Mejia
Groomsman
Nestor is an incredibly bright, philosophical, and cultured man. But it is his kindness that I will always think of first. Nestor was my first true friend in middle school when I struggled to speak beyond my three-in-one 1200-page Lord of the Rings trilogy book. Far before I made friends in sports, Nestor included me, and we were friends ever since. From middle school Kik chat, to orchestra, to being one of the only people I confessed things to during the entirety of high school, thank you. I look forward to experiencing life and discussing music and shows with you for as long as we have left in this world!
Maggie Kappel
Bridesmaid
Okay, time to BeReal! Maggie is one of the coolest girls we know around here! Maggie is the creative brain behind our college ministry, and is often the one Sanja goes to when she has questions about designs or how to use Canva again. Maggie is a cat owner, camera whiz, diet coke lover (who isnt?), and sweet friend.
Gabriel De La Puente
Groomsman
Gabe! We've been a duo since middle school and high school. You'll always be the kicker to my holder. You are always accurate, whether it's with kicking, or counseling, wisdom, and assessments of anything in life. You are a great encourager, a passionate friend, and I've never seen spirit for sports, teams, work, or other people like you show on the daily. Can't wait to ball with you at the wedding!
