Wedding Party
Shawn Welder
Bride
The heart of this celebration—warm, creative, and full of joy. She brings a thoughtful elegance to everything she does, with a deep love for beauty, connection, and a good laugh. Whether she’s curating the perfect playlist, planning a meaningful detail, or dancing in the middle of the callejoneada, Shawn is all in—with heart, style, and a spark that lights up every room. Shawn is filled with joy to be marrying Trent. His big heart, generous spirit, and magnetic energy have made her laugh, feel loved, and at home from the very beginning. She can’t wait to say “I do” to a future full of love, laughter, and life with him. Her love for family, friends, and life’s little moments is at the center of this wedding, and she can’t wait for you to celebrate this next chapter with her.
Trent McNalley
Groom
Trent is all Texas charm—big-hearted, outgoing, and always ready with a warm welcome (and probably a great one-liner). He’s the life of the party! And most of all, he’s over-the-moon excited to be marrying Shawn—the love of his life and the person who makes every day brighter. His joy is infectious, his love is unwavering, and he can’t wait to start this next adventure by her side. With a bold spirit and a generous heart, Trent brings energy, fun, and a whole lot of love to everything he does. Whether he’s leading the callejoneada or making guests feel right at home, he’s all in—and he’s making this celebration unforgettable, one big laugh at a time.
Nona Brinkoeter
Mother of the Groom
Nona is not only the proud mother of the groom—she’s also a radiant guest of honor, celebrating her fabulous 80th birthday during this unforgettable weekend! Full of grace, wisdom, and a spark that lights up every room, Nona is the heart of the family. She’s elegant, endlessly kind, and always ready with a thoughtful word or a knowing smile. Whether she’s sharing stories, offering warm hugs, or curating one of her famous parties, Nona brings a timeless charm to every moment. This celebration is as much about love and new beginnings as it is about honoring her incredible journey—and we couldn’t be more thrilled to celebrate this milestone with her at the center of it all.
David Segit
Officiant
David is not only family—he’s the perfect person to help us say "I do." As the bride’s brother-in-law, he’s been part of the inner circle for years, bringing his warmth, wit, and generous spirit to every family gathering. Thoughtful, grounded, and always ready with a meaningful word (or a perfectly timed joke), David has a way of making everyone feel seen and included. His deep connection to Shawn and Trent, along with his natural ease in front of a crowd, makes him the ideal officiant to guide us through this once-in-a-lifetime moment with heart, humor, and just the right touch of ceremony.
