Parents of the Bride
These two always put their family first. They've supported me through life's twists and turns & welcomed Tony into the family immediately. They've always been my source for comfort growing up, but as an adult our relationship has grown even more over wine and thoughtful conversation. Our free therapists & sounding board, we can't wait to share our special day with you!
Parents of the Groom
Miriam is hands down the most influential person in my life. She’s encouraged me every step of the way through life’s moments and is one of the main reasons I strive to be a better person every day. When she introduced April & me to Arturo, he lovingly brought his kids into our lives, giving me an amazing collection of brothers and sisters.
Father of the Groom
This man taught me a lot of things - How to ride a bike, how to drive a Bobcat tractor and how to work a stick-shift (in his ‘98 Ford Mustang GT no less). But one of the most important things he taught me was how to pick and dig foundation trenches in New Mexico...in the summer. I still remember (through what I now think was heat exhaustion) him looking at me with a smile and saying “this is why you should go to college”.
Bridesmaid / Sister of the Bride
Even when you're grown, there are times you feel small and vulnerable. In those times, my sister always has my back. I know I make fun of you for your adoration of moscato (aka fake wine), but your loyalty is fierce and admirable.
Best Man
I always thought it would be a little weird to look up to someone who was younger than me. Enter my cousin Ezari. We could spend months, even a year apart and we’ll still pick up like we had spoken the week before...all while driving around in his Honda S2000.
Bridesmaid
I met this lovely lady while grinding at my first advertising job. She was a hard nut to crack, but my persistence was eventually rewarded. Thoughtful & intuitive, she's the easiest person to talk to and get lost in conversation for hours. I love swapping book recos and bouncing interior design ideas off her. WE LOVE C&B TOO MUCH!
Grooms Lady / Sister of the Groom
BOY did we get into some arguments when we were kids. She got on my nerves and I got on hers. But when she needed a ride somewhere (or some cash), she knew she could count on me. When I needed Mom to not find out I was throwing a house party while she was out of town (sorry Mom!) she kept my secret. Because, when it came down to it, we had each others' back.
Bridesman
A fountain of youth, this handsome devil always brings the energy to the party. Selfless and considerate, he's always there when I need him. And after many years of harassment from me (& Nicole), he's the proud Father of a beautiful Persian kitty, "Miss Priss". Please ask him for photos at the wedding...
Groomsman / Brother of the Groom
Some of my favorite memories as a kid have been with this guy. Many of them at his expense, some at mine. But what I can say now is that I couldn’t be happier to have him in my life and call him my brother.
