Maid of Honor
My personal ATM ;) Dianne (aka “Sissy”) and I have always had a close relationship growing up, but our bond only grew stronger as we got older. She has always been one of my role models and is one of the most caring, generous, and selfless people I know. When we aren’t traveling together and exploring new places, we enjoy spending time at the gym taking body pump/body combat classes and going on coffee runs.
Bridesmaid
My personal drug dealer (aka the pharmacist). Our friendship goes all the way back to second grade and "Nazzy" has been by my side ever since. She is one of the most hardworking, dependable, and trustworthy people I know. You can usually find us trying the cutest aesthetic restaurants and cafés or shopping for things we definitely don’t need.
Bridesmaid
My personal therapist. Natalie was one of my first friends I met when I moved to a new school in 2nd grade and our friendship grew stronger when we entered middle school. She is the type of friend that will always be there to listen and will do anything she can to protect the people she cares about. Even from 600+ miles away, I know I can always count on her.
Bridesmaid
My OG dance partner. Some of my favorite childhood memories were of time spent with Ally, which typically consisted of hosting fashion shows and choreographing dances to perform for our families. As we got older, not much changed. We still love making little dance videos together and attempting the latest TikTok trends. More than just my cousin, Ally has always felt like one of my very best friends.
Best Man
Lawrence is the reason why we started dating. Without him, we likely wouldn’t have gotten to where we are now. Our friendship started in middle school, connecting through basketball and orchestra. One of my favorite memories with him is taking a spontaneous road trip and crashing Patty’s family’s vacation at Disney. You’ll find us pigging out at the newest all you can eat spots.
Groomsman
Scully was my roommate throughout college. We’d stay up all night playing on my PS4 projected on our dorm room wall while eating wings and a pint of Ben and Jerry’s ice cream. Since he was an international student, he would spend school breaks over at my house and we would go and try out all sorts of new food, mostly burgers and tacos.
Groomsman
Kyle and I met at church back in elementary school. We ended up going to the same middle school and played on the golf team together. He later went to my rival high school and still, to this day, tries to beat me in golf but always ends up just short. One of my fondest memory with him was going to the Stanford golf camp in middle school and witnessing his first hole in one. I still don’t have a hole in one, so he’s got me beat there.
Groomsman
Demetri and I have known each other since day 1. We were extremely competitive with each other in everything we did but no matter how heated it would get during the games, it never affected our friendship. Annoyingly, he was always ever so slightly better than me in everything until now. Golf is the only thing that I can beat him in but knowing him, in a few years he may give me a run for my money. I remember one day after school, a group of friends were talking about the future and I remember saying that Demetri would be a groomsman at my wedding one day. 20+ years later, here we are.
