Wedding Party
Hannah Riga
Maid of Honor
Tiffany met Hannah freshman year at the University of Hawai'i, where they bonded over being bio majors, surviving dorm life, and crying over boys together. From day one, they were inseparable. If you saw one, the other was usually just a few steps behind. Hannah has been Tiffany's personal hype woman, life coach, and med school hotline ever since. But plot twist she's also part of the reason Tiffany met Tom. When Tiffany made a trip to Kansas City with her sister Christina, she planned to see her bestie Hannah (who’s from there). One casual night out with Hannah somehow turned into a "meet-cute" with Tom. So basically… this wedding might not even be happening without Hannah. Thanks girl! Oh and Hannah just finished medical school and is now a resident GENERAL SURGEON! A true baddie.
Cam Coquyt
Best Man
One of Tom’s oldest and still closest friends - going back to when you would go ring the doorbell at your friend’s house to legitimately see if they were home. From their 4th grade paper route, to the countless feasts and bonfires over the years, their friendship will only continue to grow. Cam’s energy and positivity is undeniably contagious. Now a father of 3 boys all under 3 years old, he has fully embraced the craziness and has proved himself to be just as great a father as he is a friend. Cam also happens to be the cat dad of Tom and Tiff’s beloved cat’s kitten (picture of said kitten above).
Sanoe Burgess
Bridesmaid
Sanoe (aka Sasa) is one of Tiffany’s dearest college friends and her forever surfing, hiking, and “hey, let’s go somewhere random” buddy. Their friendship was built on beach days, spontaneous island adventures, and the kind of laughs that make your stomach hurt. But Sanoe isn’t just the friend you call when you want to jump into the ocean and catch a swell, she’s also the one you turn to when life gets real. Sanoe has always been the calm in the chaos, someone who listens with her whole heart and gives advice that makes you feel grounded and seen. And let’s not forget Sanoe is currently working toward her PhD (yes, beauty, brains, AND a chill vibe it’s almost unfair).
Yoseph Melaku
Groomsman
Friends from college and later roommates post grad in the heart of downtown LA, Yoseph always brings the right vibes and is the guy you always want controlling the playlist. Throughout his career he’s found great success in tech and has stepped up to the big leagues in his role at Microsoft. Hit him up if you have any crypto questions, or just need some fresh new artists for your favorite playlist - you’ll surely see him on the dance floor.
Evangeline Remillard
Bridesmaid
Tiffany met Evangeline in college through mutual friends, and it didn’t take long before they were inseparable from party nights to beach days, every moment with Eva is effortlessly good vibes. She's the kind of friend who makes you feel instantly at ease… and then surprises you by picking up a ukulele and singing with the voice of an angel. But beyond her chill energy and musical talent, Eva is truly a real-life angel. She works as a social worker, tirelessly helping those without access to healthcare.
Bobby Pendleton
Groomsman
Hard to find a more generous and loyal person than Bobby. Always there to meet for happy hour, grill steaks on the porch, or get some time out in the country - there’s never a dull moment. The memories are countless, while some not able to be retold, there will be so many more. He’s a savvy business man, hardworking and honest - it’s a blessing to have such a long and strong friendship.
Nicole Urbanski
Bridesmaid
Nicole and Tiffany go way back, all the way to high school swim and water polo days, where they bonded over early practices, chlorine hair, and mutual suffering under Coach Hinman. Tiffany would spend countless hours hanging out with Nicole and her sister Paulina at their home usually laughing, occasionally getting into just a little trouble, but always making memories. Through it all, Nicole has been a constant in Tiffany’s life: loyal, hilarious, and always down for a good time. Now she’s channeling her creativity into becoming an interior designer. So when your house looks boring one day, you know who to call!
Dan Taylor
Groomsman
Growing up in the same neighborhood and both having big intertwined families, Dan and Tom have been friends since well before memory. Nowadays Dan is crushing it on social media with his freestyle soccer videos. One of the funniest guys you’ll meet, it’s easy to hang with Dan - just bear with him when he makes you take shoes off on a hike so you can really feel the earth.
Hallie Schechter
Bridesmaid
Tiffany met Hallie at summer water polo camp freshman year of high school, and their friendship really took off after the Junior Olympics tournament. From chlorine-filled beginnings to cheering each other on through major life milestones, Hallie has been a constant force in Tiffany’s life. They’ve shared everything from deep talks to international adventures, including an unforgettable medical mission trip to Guatemala. Hallie has always inspired Tiffany with her drive, big heart, and unstoppable work ethic. Oh, and she just recently graduated from law school and is now an actual attorney. So if you need legal advice after dancing too hard at the wedding, she’s your girl.
Alex McIntyre
Groomsman
Alex and Tom built their bond during the long and hard years of swimming. Alex has retained the strength and determination swimming takes and it’s easy to recognize. Big fun fact - Alex was there at the Soja concert back in 2018 - the fateful night that Tom and Tiffany met. He always has time to listen, and his advice, practicality, determination and inquisitive perspective on life makes conversations easy.
Boonyanudh (BJ) Jiyarom
Bridesmaid
Tiffany met BJ in college during their general chemistry class (a true bonding experience if there ever was one), and they instantly clicked. Both California girls and biology majors, BJ quickly became the cool, witty older-sister figure who somehow always knew about the best food spots, and how to get the best deals — basically, if BJ knew about it, Tiffany wanted in. Now that they’re both back on the mainland, their adventures continue with ski trips and endless laughs. Oh, and fun fact: BJ was literally in a movie, she played young Constance Wu. So yes, you’re looking at an actual film star!
Matt Liesveld
Groomsman
From high school swim, to the Sunday night water polo sessions after the neighborhood pool closed, Chiefs games, Nuggets games, or a quick trip to Hawaii - Matt always shows up ready to go and always brings the best attitude and the smile to go with it. Matt’s the always down to travel guy, and has visited Tom and Tiffany in every different city they’ve ever lived in (there’s been a few).
Brianna Weinstein
Bridesmaid
Tiffany met Brianna through high school swim team, though let’s be honest Brianna was in a league of her own. She went on to swim for USC (fight on!) and is actually a fellow Trojan with Tom… even though fate waited until after college to bring all the connections together. Brianna is the friend who lights up any room, always ready for deep chats, spontaneous adventures, and bringing the most positive energy to every situation. She’s the kind of person who makes you feel better just by being around her. These days, she’s absolutely crushing it in the business world, but don’t worry she still never turns down a good time.
Alec Epstein
Groomsman
From the early days of college, Alec and Tom’s adventures are for the record books. You can’t spend more than a second talking to Alec without clearly seeing he is one of the most intelligent and driven people you’ve ever met. His resume speaks volumes, but personally he is as genuine, kind and honest as it gets. Alec brings thoughtfulness, loyalty, and a sharp wit to every room he’s in.
