Officiant
Tamara is a life long friend of Ashley who was instrumental in the high school relationship between our bride and groom. She met Chris in high school Spanish class where their frenemy status began. We could not think of a better non-family option with history with us both, and we are beyond thankful that she took the time and effort to become ordained in order to be the person to help usher us into marriage.

With the unforeseen passing of Ashley's Mother when she was younger, Dolores "MITSY" stepped in as a mother figure despite being her older sister. She has been a constant figure in both Chris and Ashley's life, she will be giving away her sister as the ultimate show of love and appreciation.

Jim " Dad" is the father of the groom. He has been Chris's inspiration for hard work and dedication to family.

He's is a dedicated family man who has loved and welcomed Ashley into the family.
