Eric & Taylor
Wedding Party
Rebecca Valle
Matron of Honor
Taylor and I met in 2009 when Kappa Kappa Gamma brought us together and we became sisters. We instantly bonded as sisters for life, not just through our sorority. She has been by my side ever since and she has been a wonderful support system throughout our years of friendship. I do not know what I would do without her. Taylor was standing by me when I married Jorge in Puerto Rico 5 years ago. We have 2 fur babies and look forward to growing our family soon in AZ. I have had the pleasure of watching both her & Eric grow not only as individuals but as a couple as well. I am so honored to stand by her side as her maid of honor and watch her marry her perfect match, Eric. I am so thrilled that she and Eric found each other, and I can’t wait to watch them continue and grow their life together.
Mary Gendron
Maid of Honor
Taylor chose me to be her friend freshman year at ASU. We met at a Kappa event and she joined my group for the night and the rest is history! I am so lucky that out of everyone there she picked me 💕 Taylor is incredibly kind, generous and thoughtful but also a goof ball and fellow nerd! We share a mutual love for Harry Potter, Disney everything and like a G6. Eric and I have become close too and he is the only person who can play the song Closing Time while kicking me out of his house without me getting offended 😂 Currently I live in Tempe, work for a solar company and spend my free time traveling as much as possible!
Randy Navarette
Best Man
My name is Randy Navarrette and Eric has been my best friend for almost 20 years. We met freshman year in Mr. Randall’s science class and we've been inseparable ever since. Even though Eric moved out of state our friendship has stood strong. I’ve had the blessing of having met Taylor along our journey who happened to be the sweetest, most caring & genuine woman I’ve met behind my mother. She could not be a more perfect compliment to Eric’s impeccable character. I consider myself a very lucky guy to have Taylor & Eric in my life.

Best Man
I’ve known Eric for a long time and met Taylor early in their relationship. I met in them in Orange by means of my good buddy Randy. One my favorite things was to watch Eric walking around like an old man. I like to play golf , do a little bit of hiking and underwater basket weaving. I sometimes knit hats for my neighborhood dogs. I’m looking forward to this wonderful wedding that should be a blast

Bridesmaid
I am Taylor's step sister and we share the same birthday, only 2 years apart! We have a super cute story on how we found out we have the same birthday. I just got married last year and I live in Southern California.
Marissa Pickett
Bridesmaid
Taylor & I became immediate best friends in 3rd grade. Her dad was our soccer coach & our parents introduced us. All we remember is looking down at our shoes & timidly saying hi :) (so shy)! However, we instantly became best friends & were inseparable. Taylor is such a special soul & one of the few people in my life that is a constant. I can ALWAYS count on her at the drop of a hat which she has through middle school, high school, college, & now. This shows how caring, sweet, selfless, & truly wonderful she is. When she fell in love with Eric (totally looks like Zac Efron), I knew they were tied for life. They complement each other in a way that is so rare & special. I am so excited to share with them what I know will be a day to remember. I'm in nursing school & live in Washington!
Natalie Spreeman
Bridesmaid
I can’t believe I’ve known Taylor for over 15 years! She’s been one of my best friends through our awkward high school years where we watched Crossroads with Marissa, to having her by my side as a bridesmaid at my wedding. She is considered part of my family, and my dad even calls her the triplet (after my twin sister and me). I honestly think Taylor knows me better than I know myself sometimes, and she always puts others’ needs before her own. I love Taylor so much, and I’m honored and excited to be a part of her and Eric’s special day! I am a first grade teacher and live in Orange County.
Bria Cooper
Bridesmaid
I met Taylor on one of her many trips to visit AZ friends. Soon she moved here and I was lucky enough to be invited to her Harry Potter house warming party. Fortunately, we are both nerds, so we became fast friends. We have bonded over various fandoms, our love of soccer and grown closer on several road trips together, always to places where we can act like kids. I, much like Taylor, am passionate about helping others. I am a kindergarten teacher, who has more in common with her students than her peers. I also work as a camp counselor during the summer, often playing dodgeball, creating art or dancing. You will probably find me on the dance floor for much of the wedding.
Ashlyn Tenenbaum
Junior Bridesmaid
My name is Ashlyn Tenenbaum I am Eric’s little sister. I am 13 years old and I’ve been dancing since I was 3. I am so happy that Eric and Taylor are finally getting married!
Eden Tenenbaum
Junior Bridesmaid
So uhm, obviously I’m Eric’s favorite sister & Taylor's favorite sister-in-law. Basically this whole wedding totally wouldn’t be true without me. After years of begging, Eric finally popped the question. When I tell you I almost cried, I almost cried. Taylor is one of the best humans I have ever met & I can tell these two will go far together. I love them so much I can’t even express it. Watch out on the dance floor because I will show you up😉😉 Anyways, I love these two so much & I’m so happy that God brought them together & that Eric had the guts to talk to a girl. Honestly, one of the best decisions he has made. I’m 13 & have a twin. I do ballet & have pointe shoes!🩰 Technically you could call me a nerd😝 I'm so happy for these two and can’t wait to see what the future brings💕💕

Eric is my oldest brother and my role model. I’m 21 years old and like sports. Looking forward to share this day with Eric and Taylor and keep it rolling!
Christian Taylor
Groomsman
My brother Christian sadly passed away on July 19th, 2020. He said yes to being a groomsman a couple months before his passing. Christian is still going to be with us on our special day and he will continue to have his place as a groomsman. He was not only close to me (Taylor), but he was also close to Eric. He was very excited to be in the wedding party and would have been the life of the party on our special day. Christian would have graduated college this May at my rival school, University of Arizona. We love you and miss you Christian ❤️
Brenden Barker
Groomsman
Brenden is my youngest brother and is in his first year of high school. He is a sweetheart and loves his family.
Lloyd Inana
Officiant
I am Taylor’s Papa (grandpa) and what an honor & privilege it is to officiate this very special day. Grandchildren have a special place in the hearts of their grandparents and Taylor certainly has a special place in mine. I often reminisce about the simple things we did together that brought me so much joy and created such lasting memories. I’ve likely bored people with Papa & Taylor stories but I’ll probably continue to tell them regardless…they are special to me and make me smile and remember. In this new season of her life, I am excited about the adventures and new memories She and Eric will create together. Taylor is a joy and what a blessing it is to be her Papa.
