Kelli & Stephen
Wedding Party
Brian Slaman
Officiant
Bri Guy has been a wonderful friend to us for many years now and has watched our relationship grow! We love he is always down for a foodie adventure, especially if it involves second dinner. Kelli and Brian originally met at the cast party of Wicked in L.A. but wound up becoming dear friends several years later while on tour with The Christmas Spectacular. Brian and Stephen quickly connected with food since Brian is also culinarily trained. We are honored to have you share in this special day and hold you as a close friend!
Corey Shimada
Best Person
Corey has always been Kelli's sidekick. As kids Kelli would make up dances that Corey had to be a part of! He has come a long way from those days and really stepped into his dancing shoes. He is the hardest worker and has achieved so many accomplishments. He knows how to get a rise out of his sister but in the end is the most thoughtful person. He has also seamlessly welcomed Stephen into the family! Corey is everything that you could hope for in a brother and Kelli is so lucky to have him as one of her best friends!
Tammy To-Détraz
Best Person
Tammy and Kelli have been through it all from rolling around on stage in Aladdin, tasty adventures in Japan and touring the USA! Tammy has been like a sister to Kelli from the beginning. The two of them are two peas in a pod and have been through so much together over the years. Tammy, Christian and their family have welcomed Stephen with open arms. Kelli and Stephen love to spend time in Vegas with Tammy and her family and hope to do it more often! Kelli is honored to have Tammy by her side. Bookends for life!
Scott Hislop
Flower Brigade/ Choreographer
Scott has been a true and steady friend for so long! With entertaining whit and raw talent, he never ceases to amaze us. From the day he was born he has been the star of the show and brings life to everything he touches! We have shared endless nights laughing until our stomachs hurt watching old dance videos. Of course we couldn't have this day happen without a little pizazz and are so thankful Scott and Dom helped bring it together.
Dominic Chaiduang
Flower Brigade/ Choreographer
Dom is a ray of sunshine! With his big smile and huge heart he made the years of living in LA a joy! Kelli loved spending time with Dom so he could come up with inspiring ideas for his beautiful dance pieces now and then. It also gave her an excuse to hang out with their sweet dogs Henry and Junebug. With Dom's amazing eye and natural talent he and Scott have helped us bring a little excitement to our special day! We are so thankful for you!
Jason DeRoest
Flower Brigade
Jason has the biggest heart and has been friends with Kelli since they were kids dancing in Utah. By wonderful coincidence they both moved to LA the same year and have been having dance parties ever since! He is the kind of friend that you can always count on and share endless moments of laughter with! He is one of the most caring humans and is always there for whatever life throws at us. Stephen and Kelli are so lucky to have Jason in their lives and are so happy he ends up visiting Utah often. Thank you Jason for being you, we love you!
Timothy George Anderson
Flower Brigade
Tim has always been the calming soul you need to have around! After Kelli got over the fact she had been introduced to one of her favorite dancers many moons ago, they became great friends! It was always fun to have Tim around for game night and listen to jams! Tim was on tour a lot but Kelli felt lucky to catch a moment with him from LA, to being on tour, to living in NY together for a season. Stephen was quite nervous to meet Tim for the first time but all worked out! Tim is such a wonderful person and we are lucky to call you our friend!
Adam Ryan Tackett
Flower Brigade
My Fever!!! Adam and Kelli have been gemini twins since they started touring with Radio City together years ago. He was Kelli's comfort every year they were on tour and although they lived across the country they always picked up where they left off! Not only does he always have the best hair but has the best heart to go along with it. He adopted Stephen instantly and has always been there for both of them over the years. We have had so many wonderful memories together and can't wait to make more! We love you feves and are so happy you can share in our special day!
Charles McLoughlin
Flower Brigade
Charlie is the yin to Tim's yang and was adopted into the family immediately! He always adds some spunk into any occasion. Kelli loved those cold winter NY nights chilling on the couch with a night cap hanging out with Tim and Charlie. Naturally inspired and a jack of all trades he is always ready to dish out life tips for Kelli and Stephen. Charlie had an instant connection with Stephen as well which has led to endless moments filled with laughter. We love you Charlie and are so happy you are a part of our special day!
Johnny Goodson
Flower Brigade
Johnny is always down for a good time! He and Kelli go way back to the good old days of THE ASIA SHOW and all the Vietnamese shows after that. They were so lucky to perform together for so many years. The life of the party, Johnny has always had an inspiring desire to keep his head in the game and work hard. Life is very different now than it was back in the day but Stephen and I are so glad we have you in our lives. Thank you for being a part of our special day!
Bryan Calderon
Flower Brigade
Whiskey buddy! Don't let Bryan's quiet demeanor fool you, he is always ready for a good time! Party planning is his forte and always had a fun filled adventure in store. With his impeccable eye for fashion and design he and Johnny have created their own line. Bryan has also been a great support to both Kelli and Stephen over the years. Can't wait for more endless pool parties in the near future. Thank you for sharing this special day with us!
