Amanda & Sheldon
Wedding Party
Chrysanne Selvey
Matron of Honor
I always wanted a sister growing up. When Matt and Chrysanne started dating, I knew from the beginning that she would be my sister one day. Now she's a Selvey and my sister forever! Also, they made me an aunty and I love love love being Emrie's aunty (P.S. She is DEFINITELY the cutest baby I have ever seen!) My favorite memory... Remember that time on Moloka'i? When we decided it was a great idea to race tiny tricycles around a race track made for preschoolers. I was TOTALLY winning and was almost at the finish line but then you turned your game face on and flipped me off my trike! You claimed first place that night and I got a bummy knee from falling off my trike. *Sigh* Good times... We need a rematch!
Matthew Selvey
Best Man
Matt and I have been friends since we were apart of the same flag football team in elementary school. We share the same birthday. We are around the same height but I'm a lot heavier. We share a lot of the same interests (sports, games, food). But most of all he's been a great friend to me since Amanda and I have been together. Of course I would ask him to be my best man on my wedding day. He is the kind of man I aspire to be. A great father to the most adorable baby girl and a providing husband for his wife and new family. I'm lucky that he said yes.
Casey Kaneshiro
Bridesmaid
My brother, Jordan, needs to hurry up and ask Casey to marry him already so I can OFFICIALLY have another sister! It's not like that really matters because for years I've considered her to be my sister anyway. Some things I love about Casey... 1 - She always has very nice nails. 2 - She's super duper smart. 3 - She's really easy to talk to about anything and everything. 4 - She has pretty hair. It's like a unicorn! 5 - I love that she loves my brother(: My favorite time with Casey occurred not too long ago. Jordan, Casey, and I were playing a game called "What Do You Meme?" If you've never played it, you really should. All I can really remember was laughing for what felt like hours. My cheeks were sore, my stomach was aching, and I could not stop crying from laughing so hard.
Jordan Selvey
Groomsman
The youngest of Amanda's brothers and the younger brother I never had growing up (haha sorry Tiana). Jordan and I have the type of friendship that I hope all brothers have. When I first started dating his sister he was always up to do most things and helps me out whenever I ask him. He has been my gym partner since last year and has helped me along the way to becoming a strong and more healthy person. Amanda and I can't wait to be apart of his next big steps in life.
Tiana Acosta
Bridesmaid
ANOTHER SISTER!! Man, am I one lucky girl. My whole life I've wanted sisters (sorry Matthew and Jordan. I love you guys). Tiana is Sheldon's little sister and I love watching the way he cares for her in the most subtle ways. Like kisses on her forehead when we have to say "see you later" (and all the girls say *awwww*). I've always loved Tiana because I think she's a lot like me in some ways. I always see her doing or saying quirky things that I would do and it cracks me up. Love you Tiana!
Reyn Acosta
Groomsman
My brudduh brudduh. My older brother. The man who helped mom take care of us when dad was deployed. Looked out for my sister and I as a big brother should growing up. Disciplined me when I would act a fool but at the end of the day he would make sure I was alright. I can't thank him enough for all that he has done for me. Growing up I always thought that my brother was so cool. To this day he still is.
Maile Cha
Bridesmaid
It's always been hard to explain our relationship to people because they can't comprehend that Maile is my aunty. She is my Dad's youngest sister and we're the same age (although she ALWAYS likes to emphasize that she is 6 months older than me). We've basically been side by side since we were in diapers. She's been my longest friendship and we'll be friends till we're old and wrinkly, reminiscing about all the things we did as kids.
Dae Yang Kim
Groomsman
My guy. My go to for music and clothes. One of the funniest people to be around. So of course I would ask him to be one of my groomsmen on my wedding day. I've known Dae since freshman year of high school and we've been friends ever since. He went away for college but whenever he came back to the island it was always like he never left. Always laughing and having a great time could be expected when we would get to together. I am honored to have him along side me on September 7th.
