Wedding Party

We invite you to take a moment to explore the incredible friends and family who played a vital role in making this wedding a reality. In a Filipino wedding, a wedding sponsor is a special guest invited to take part in the ceremony, often holding a significant role in the couple's lives. Thank you everyone for being a part of our special day. Your presence and support meant the world to us. We’re grateful to have you in our lives as we begin this new chapter together.

Dan and Mely

Father & Mother of the Bride


Tammy

Mother of the Groom

Ellaiza

Matron of Honor

I am the bride's longest relationship. 24 years of friendship and counting. My additional sister and my soulmate forever.


John

Best Man

Best friends for 17 years and going. Creating unforgettable moments along the way and being honored to be his son’s godfather. What can I say… I’m also his “best” photographer.

Vivian

Bridesmaid

I am the bride’s sister-in-law’s little sister. I have grown up with Desiree and see her as my additional sister.


JanRay

Groomsman

I am the best big brother of the Bride. The built in bestie. We may be 10 years apart but we are twins.

Christina

Bridesmaid

College Bestie! Desiree and I helped each other get through our Nuc Med program and were each other's bad influences for years. We spent countless hours together studying and partying!


Jeremy

Groomsman

I am Tai’s best drinking buddy. Met through friends and have been inseparable ever since. Will never hesitate to pick up his bar tab and his spirits.

Cindy

Bridesmaid

I met the couple through a Facebook group, which is crazy seeing how close we've gotten. Me and her are like two peas in a pod. The couple has become my extended family away from home.


Kirby

Groomsman

Grooms best friend from Ohio! Went to HS and College together and roomed for 3 years straight. Nothing I wouldn’t do for him like he wouldn’t do for me. Ride or die.

Luke

Groomsman

The grooms best country friend. From whiskey and beer to cowboy boots and dancehalls, we’re brothers but I’m Mexican.


Anthony

Groomsman

Grooms best friend since 4th grade. Basically brothers from different mothers. Love you bro.
