Elizabeth & Martin
Wedding Party
Elizabeth Raymond
Bride
Adorable yet metal as fuck, louder than gods revolver and twice as shiny, and mommas punk/goth princess. Elizabeth is a musician, artist, and the biggest nerd you will ever meet. Don’t watch LOTR with her unless you want the whole movie quoted, or a in depth analysis of why you can’t compare Star Trek and Star Wars. Elizabeth can be seen cheering on her students at work or at home relaxing with the love of her life.

"The love of my life, my better half and the person I cannot wait to wake up early for jazz band with and stay out late complaining about how long awards are after a marching band competition 💙" - Lizzy Martin is a Band Director at one of the best band programs in Southern California. When he is not busy running a program he spends his time playing games. Specifically of the PlayStation and PC variety. He enjoys time at home as well as going out and seeing the world. From big to small adventures he is down for it all! Especially if it involves his favorite person Elizabeth. Martin has a love of cars, specifically his Subaru, and being a nerd over music. He is known to be one of the best AP Music Theory teachers after all!
Alexandra Curtis
Matron of Honor
Alexandra and Elizabeth have been friends since 6th grade, despite Ms. Sale separating them after talking to much in class. Between making a zombie horror movie, going out on random adventures, sleep overs, heartbreak, gushing over their true loves, and experiencing all that life has to offer they have quickly become “sisters from other misters” and continue to be for life!
Josh Meyer
Best Man
Martin and Josh have been best friends for years after meeting "again" at SDSU. Both enjoy long gaming sessions on Overwatch, or rocket league, or Fortnite, or.....well yea mostly gaming.
Keala Virtue
Matron of Honor
Keala and Elizabeth became friends during their first year of college through the Marching Aztecs and Tau Beta Sigma. When Keala would spend more nights on Elizabeth’s couch that first year than in her own dorm room (you would too if you had to be stuck in Chappy) they became close friends. They shared lots of late night runs to McDonald’s, long drives back home to see their family every weekend, a ridiculously long road trip to Boise, and braving being roommates, they are sisters fostered by “the bond” and continue to be for life!
Soran Dalawi
Groomsman
Look if I put anything about him here besides his name I'm pretty sure he will kill me so just let him be a mystery....
Amanda Sosaya
Bridesmaid
Amanda and Elizabeth are soon to be sisters but already acted like it upon their first meeting at Christmas in 2019. Amanda and Elizabeth bonded over their love of Good Charlotte, picking on Martin, and late night runs to Target and Winco, more making fun of Martin, and McDonalds runs. FaceTime calls on almost a daily basis is a routine catching up on life and planning the next trips with their families together!
Gabe Sosaya
Groomsman
Martin and Gabe have been childhood friends for years before Gabe officially became his brother. Whenever these two get together it is always bonding over their love of cars, watching music videos, and the best part - taking naps on the couch! Always there through thick and thin they always have been brothers.
Brianna Alita
Bridesmaid
Born roughly a few weeks apart, these two are known as the “twin cousins” both in looks and personality. They consider themselves more like sisters than cousins and although they spent most of their lives growing up apart they always come together like no time as passed. Distance never matters and they are equally friends as they are family. They share of love of all things witchy and love random adventures together!
Mark McCann
Groomsman
The man, the myth, the legendary Mr. McCann! Martin and Mark met in college and became fast friends and still hang out, usually centered around their love of video games and food.
Sam Urbina
Bridesmaid
Elizabeth and Sam met in college and became close friends during Sam's first year. This bond grew more when Sam became a sister of Tau Beta Sigma. The bond got stronger when they had their first year together at Del Norte where Sam student taught and Elizabeth was the new Music Assistant. After bonding that year it was apparent they were inseparable and became best friends! Sam is a true ride or die and always there when needed, even though the texts can come quick or 3 days later!

Gregory Raymond
Father of the Bride
Gregory and Elizabeth have bonded over sports, cars, and “bitching about work” over the years. Gregory taught Elizabeth that the little things are what count in life, from leaving hot cheetoes on her bed after a bad day and cheering her on and being at almost every swim meet (Flame on!), color guard comp, band comp, and concert he could make. He instilled a love of The Eagles and The Doobie Brothers as well as making sure Elizabeth knows how to fix a car.
