Wedding Party
Selena Santellana
Bride
I’ve known Zach since junior high. We started dating our junior year of high school when he asked me out after our first varsity football game. Zach has been my best friend and rock through many points in my life. He has always been very thoughtful and sweet, while we were in college, he sent me flowers every year on my birthday. He is truly one of the most funny, smart, kind, and hardworking people i know. There is no one i would rather spend my time with and no one that understands me the way he does. i can’t wait to become his wife and to share our love for each other with our family and friends.
Zachary Perry
Groom
Selena and I have been together for almost a third of our lives. We have been able to watch each other grow from juniors in high school to graduating college and moving in together. We have so many memories from the highs of vacations, our annually putt putt game, and all the lifetime milestones we have seen each other reach to the low times in our lives that we have supported each other through. I couldn’t think of anyone else I would want to share those memories with and I can’t wait to continue to drag her to car shows and listen to her gross stories from the ER.

I’m Selena’s older sister, she’s been my best friend my entire life. Selena is such an amazing God mother & aunt to my kids. They are so excited to finally be able to call Zach their uncle! I’m so happy for the both of them & so excited for their big day!
Nicholas Perry
Best Man
Zachary is my older brother. It’s hard to think of just one story to summarize our relationship. There have been many heated games of one on one in the driveway, and many conversations about cars, dogs, and other shared hobbies. Sports have always been something we have in common. I remember a specific football practice in high school Zach pushed me around the entire practice. This memory sticks out to me because even though he pushed me around that day, I knew that he would always have my back as my older brother. I have known Selena for several years since she started dating Zachary. It feels like they have been together forever now and I can’t wait to see where the future takes them.

I’m Selena’s younger sister. I’m so happy that one of my favorite people in the world is getting married! Selena has always been there for us. I am so grateful that I can finally return the favor and be there for her. Zach is an amazing person and they are both so lucky to have each other. Can not wait for this special day!

I have known Zach since the beginning of 4th grade football where I witnessed the first of many hit sticks. Ever since that he has been a brother that I never had. Endless sleepovers and video games as kids turned into beers at the bar and fantasy football, he has been my family ever since. Selena is one of my best friends from high school and I couldn’t imagine a better couple. Plenty of memories with both of them but none match the visit they made to Ada and becoming the life of the party at my house. I can not wait to see where this relationship goes and I am more than excited to be part of their special day.

I have been so lucky to have Selena as one of my best friends since I was 8 years old! She has been my rock through all of the different stages of my life & I don't know where i'd be without her! I remember the day that I set Zach & Selena up together, so many years ago, and they were as perfect for each other then as they still are now!

Zach and I lived together for 3 years while attending Baldwin Wallace University and playing football. I think I spent more time with Zach than anyone else during my four years in college. We spent many days and nights in our living room watching countless NFL, NCAA, and NBA games together. One of my favorite memories with Zach and Selena was attending a Rod Wave concert in downtown Cleveland. We had a great time eating and drinking prior to the concert and we enjoyed it so much that we attended a second Rod Wave concert together in Detroit the following year!

Selena is one of those friends that turned more into a sister. Whether the friendship was forced because our moms were best friends, it grew into a friendship that I will forever cherish. Some of my favorite childhood memories are with Selena from playing Bratz all day long to playing mermaids in their pool. It is such an honor to be part of their special day.

Being cousins born only two months apart Zach and I naturally spent a lot of time together growing up. Brithday parties, holidays, vacations and swimming at our grandparents was a lot of our childhood. Growing up an hour away made it difficult once we started playing sports so my dad got us a freshman football game scheduled just so we could play against each other. Now, we always have a good time at family gatherings and catching sharks down in South Carolina.

Selena has been one of my best friends for as long as I can remember. One of my favorite memories of us together would be when we were next to each other in the batting line up for softball. We would always do this little song/jingle that SpongeBob and Patrick would do in the show. We would sing, “Best friends forever, Best friends forever, ding” and we would clink our bats together. Now, I can’t wait to see my best friend get married! Zach is a great guy and close friend of mine too. I can’t think of a better couple!

Perry and I played football together at Baldwin Wallace and lived together for 3 years. One time we were playing small ball in our driveway and absolutely swatted Perry but he hit me so hard that I landed on my head. So basically he gave me a concussion. Another night we all decided to participate in the hot sauce challenge. Perry was the first one to go, after taking the first bite he proceeded to chug almost a full gallon of milk. We spent every Sunday sitting in our living room, yelling at each other about the Browns and the Steelers. I’m a Browns fan and Perry is a Steelers fan. Browns have always been the better team
