Mother of the Bride
There literally are not enough words to express my love for my mom. My first friend, my confidant, and the eternal rock in my life. She has made me the woman I am today and I am eternally grateful. I love you to the moon and back again.
Mother of the Groom
With endless love and encouragement, my mom has been my biggest supporter from day one. She has shaped me into the man I am today and cannot begin to thank her enough. As she always tells me, I love you to the moon and stars (alla luna e alle stelle). You’ve been the perfect mother for me in every way.
Father of the Bride
My dad is one of those special people that brings nothing but joy, light, and laughter to every space he enters. He's who I have to thank for my sense of humor, my incredible singing voice, and my terrible eyesight. One of the moments I'm most excited for is my dad seeing me in my wedding dress for the first time.
Father of the Groom
My father is the man I aspire to be. He has taught me to be hardworking, loyal, but above all else, how to be there for family. There is no one I’d rather have as my dad.
Brother of the Bride
Theryn's kid brother. Funny, optimistic, and adventurous describe him to a T. He's excited to finally have a brother amongst the older siblings.
Maid of Honor
My big sister, best friend, fiercest protector, and partner in crime. We're two halves of the same whole and actively sharing the same brain cell. There's nobody else I'd rather have stand up for me at my wedding as my maid of honor.
Best Man
Cris has been by my side through life’s biggest moments, from childhood adventures to unforgettable milestones. Cris is known for his loyalty, humor, and steady support. From high school, through chiropractic school, to this very special day, there was no question he’d stand as Best Man.
Bridesmaid
My college best friend and roommate. We met filling out paperwork to work food service on campus and the rest is history. Now, she's my concert buddy, my international travel consultant, and the person I call when I have HOT gossip.
Bridesmaid
At first, she was just supposed to be my cat sitter. She called her mom on her way home from the initial meeting and asked, "Is it weird if I ask her to be my friend? She seemed really funny!". And from there the friendship bloomed.
Bridesmaid
We met in line at a book event and immediately saw a kindred spirit in one another. Life would be so dull without her shine, charisma, and energy. There's nobody who would come to my defense quicker and nobody I'd rather have in my corner.
Bridesmaid
My soul sister. The first time we met, we got on like a house on fire. I can't imagine my life in Wichita without her love and kindness. She keeps me grounded, sane, and calm when life gets tumultuous.
Bridesmaid
My first friend in Wichita. She’s the kindest person with the biggest heart and an unmatched sense of adventure. I treasure her constant friendship and kind heart.
Groomsman
Chiropractic school gave me both a great occupation and a friend for life. From the days spent relaxing after studying for board exams to creating inside jokes no one else understood, I knew I would want him to stand for me at my wedding.
Groomsman
There are no better friendships created than those made working in the service industry. Jordan continued onto passing the Bar examination while I went onto chiropractic school. Our friendship has stood the test of time and distance. From performing at the Matunuck Oyster Bar Christmas Party to our short-lived hiking phase during Covid, we've made long lasting memories.
Groomsman
Another long-lasting friendship created by Rhode Island summers in the service industry, Paul is someone I could always count on. From parties at the beach house to our short-lived hiking trips during Covid, Paul always brought laughter and a great time.
Groomsman
Even though he is my cousin, he is basically my little brother. I will always cherish the times we would play pass with hockey sticks across our giant driveway, and the times he would hold up signs for me during high school hockey. It is an honor to watch him become a young man who can stand by me on my wedding day.
