Wedding Party

The Wedding Website of Ryan Lubrin and Veronica Thompson (Ohr)

Meet the incredible people who will be walking down the aisle with us. Each of them has played a meaningful role in our story - supporting us, cheering us on, laughing with us, and standing besides us through every season of our journey. From the early days of excitement to the deep, steady love we share today, we are so grateful to have these amazing humans by our side on our wedding day.

Arrielle Ontiveros

Maid of Honor

Arrielle is not only my daughter, but my greatest gift and my strongest reminder of what love truly means. She has grown into a woman of wisdom, strength, independence, tenacity and grit. I am endlessly proud of the person she is. Having her stand besides me as my Maid of Honor, and love Ryan the way she does (as she’s extremely picky with who dates her mother) is one of the greatest honors of my life.

April

Matron of Honor

April and I met on a camping trip years ago and became fast friends. We were alike in so many ways, yet glaringly opposite in all the right ones. She quickly became the person I turned to for everything - guidance, perspective, excitement, happiness, steady reassurance and yes, even spreadsheets. Through every wave of life, April has been my rock and my constant… she is the Ying to my Yang. She is one of the most grounded, intelligent, and independent women I know, and I admire her deeply. Organized, thoughtful, and endlessly reliable, April has a way of bringing calm and clarity to any situation. We’ve traveled the world together, shared countless memories, and navigated life side by side. Having her stand with my as my Matron of Honor is both a comfort and an honor.

My Queens

Let me introduce you to…

My Queens - an incredible group of strong, career-driven women I met after moving to Murrietta. We connected years ago when most of our kiddos were junior high age, and now they’re (mostly) all grown up and living their best lives. As single moms, professionals, and friends, we’ve supported each other through every season of life. There has been endless laughter, unforgettable adventures, more than a few tears and an unbreakable bond formed along the way. I am so grateful to have these woman standing beside me.

Jen

Bridesmaid

Jen is the heart and glue of our group - the one who brought us all together. Jen and I hit it off years ago at the river and instantly connected. She is smart, funny, beautiful, witty, charismatic and incredibly strong! Jen is fiercely protective, opinionated, stubborn in the best way, and deeply loyal to the people she loves. We are very much alike - both career-driven, strong-willed, and committed to raising our children as our greatest priority. I admire her more than she knows, and I’m so grateful for her presence in my life.

Nudia

Bridesmaid

Nudia is pure light. She sparkles, brings joy wherever she goes, and has an incredible way of making everyone feel seen and loved. She shows up - always - day or night, for all of us, no matter what. Wild, adventurous, and fully on board for all of my shenanigans (often one-upping me 😆), she brings laughter, love, wisdom, and cohesion to our group. We’ve shared the deepest conversations and formed a bond that goes far beyond friendship. She loves me, my children, and Ryan fiercely and she is one of the strongest, most devoted mothers I know. She is family in every sense of the word.

Mallory

Bridesmaid

Mallory is our grounding force - the one we turn to when emotions are high and clarity is needed. She has an incredible way helping us pause, see another perspective, and communicate thoughtfully instead of reacting. Her wisdom, confidence, and character are matched only by her sharp humor and perfectly timed one-liners. She loves deeply, shows up fully, and is an amazing mother, partner, and friend. Being around Mallory is comforting, uplifting and always filled with laughter.

Michelle

Bridesmaid

Michelle is one of those rare people whose kindness and character speak for themselves. When I met her I saw what a genuine, thoughtful, and hardworking person she is. A devoted mother with a calm, steady presence. She’s sweet, funny and refreshingly real, never fake and never playing games. Our queens welcomed her in unanimously because she simply felt right. As we grew closer, we shared riding adventures and life moments, balancing my wild side with her quiet, reserved nature. She has the gentlest spirit and a strength that shows up when it truly matters and I admire her deeply.

Sarah

Bridesmaid

Sarah is proof that first impressions don’t tell the whole story. When we first met, I thought she was quiet, reserved - maybe even a little “goodie-two-shoes.” But once I truly got to know her, she completely surprised me. Sarah is hilarious, adventurous, wildly fun, and full of unexpected depth. As a nurse, she has the most nurturing heart - always the first to show up when one of us is hurting, sick, or in need of care. She brings calm, wisdom, and a sharp sense of humor (with just the right amount of sarcasm). Watching her open up, bloom and let her guard down over time has been a gift. She sees me, I see her, and I love her deeply. I couldn’t imagine this day without her by my side.

Michelle

Bridesmaid

My wedding wouldn’t be complete without Michelle by my side. What started as a neighborly friendship grew into something much deeper - we became sisters. Our families are woven together in the most natural way; we walk into each other homes freely, share life openly, and show up for one another without question. My son considers Michelle and her husband a second set of parents, and during the seasons when work demanded everything from me, I found peace knowing they were always there for him. We’ve celebrated, cried, traveled, and lived life side by side. Her husband, who is like a brother to me, will stand by Ryan’s side on our day. Michelle and Jason has seen me through some of my hardest chapters, and when I brought Ryan to meet them on our very first date, he passed the test with ease. Their love and support mean the world to me.
