Wedding Party
Nellyana Guillen
Bride
Hi everyone! I’m Nellyana, the bride! I have dreamed about this day since I was a little girl, and what my day is going to look like now is so much more special than I could have ever imagined. I am so excited to be marrying the man of my dreams and gaining the best family I could ask for! I love learning new things and exploring possible business ideas, I have very entrepreneurial mindset. I spend my days playing with our dogs, trying new coffee shops with Tanner, and envisioning my next business idea. Thank you all for your love and support on our big day. We can’t wait to celebrate with you all. Whether you are here in person or in spirit, we love you and truly appreciate your support!
Tanner Shippey
Groom
Hi, I’m Tanner. I never really thought I’d be here in life—getting married—but here we are. I can’t fully express how excited I am to be marrying my best friend and joining her amazing, loving family. I spend most of my time at a job I love, planning for the future Nelly and I are building together, playing with our two “puppies” (who are definitely full-grown dogs), and learning random facts to tell Nelly four or five times until she finally says, “You’ve told me that,” and I reply, “When?” We truly appreciate every one of you who could be here with us on our special day, and those we wish could be here as well. Thank you for the love and support. We love you all.
Becky Chapman
Matron of Honor/Mother of the Bride
Hi, my name is Becky. I am Nellyana’s mom. I knew since she was a little girl that she was going to be special. She is smart, loving, beautiful, and strong-willed. When I met Tanner, I knew he was perfect for her. He keeps her balanced, and he understands her. I couldn’t be happier with her choice for a husband. We welcome him to our family. I am not losing a daughter; I am gaining a son. I can’t wait!
Porter Johnson
Best Man
Hi, I’m Porter. Tanner is my longest-lasting friendship, and over the years he’s become my closest and best friend. I’m incredibly grateful for our friendship, and it’s truly an honor to be the best man and to witness this new chapter of their life. Meeting Nelly and seeing how well Tanner and her get along has been amazing. I love both of you guys and am excited to see you grow together.
Brenda De Horta
Officiant
Hi my name is Brenda, the gorgeous bride to be is one of my bestest friends. When I first met Nelly, I knew she was going to take up a special place in my heart. She wears her heart on her sleeve and lights up any room the second she walks in. I am so lucky I’ve got to watch her blossom into the beautiful, loving spicy, funny human she is. And now, what an honor it is to watch her enter one of the biggest chapters of her life. Her forever! I cannot wait to officiate Tanner and Nellys wedding and celebrate their I do’s!
McKinley Green
Flower Girl
Hi, my name is McKinley, and I’m so excited to be the flower girl at Uncle Tanner and Tia Nellyana’s wedding! I love gymnastics, making people laugh, and smiling really big. I can’t wait to walk down the aisle and throw the flowers. It’s going to be the best day ever, and I’m ready to shine!
