Krystal & Timothy
PARTY PEOPLE
Carol Collantes
Maid of Honor
Carol is Krystal's prima (cousin). They grew up together, but lost touch during high school and college. When Carol and Krystal rekindled their friendship in their mid 20s they became inseparable! Salsa dancing, restaurant hopping, trips to warm places, and many laughs later- they are like sisters!
Rod Sayers
Best Man
Rod and Tim met during the MBA program. While no witnesses have independently verified this story, their chance encounter altered the course of history and world events. Years later, they negotiated the successful release of Cuban cigars held under armed guard in Cuba’s black market trade. Cubans still aren't sure what Rod was getting at with his Quasi Spanish requests, but Tim persuaded them to accepted the terms never the less.
Melissa Quiles
Bridesmaid
Melissa is Krystal's sister. Krystal often took care of Melissa growing up- from picking out clothes to wear and fixing her hair for school. Melissa and Krystal often disagree, but would do anything for each other- the true definition of sisterhood. Now, Melissa meets Krystal in Brooklyn to do dinner and drinks, embarking on a new chapter in their relationship as adult sisters!
Gerardo Quiles
Groomsman
Gerardo is a dynamic figure, often seen scaling walls or crushing ice. As the bride’s brother, and groom’s brother in law to be, Gerardo is part of the inner circle. However, as such, sharing secrets with him will require we tie up loose ends elsewhere. Share at your own peril.
Chelsea Gamarra
Bridesmaid
Chelsea is Krystal's prima (cousin). Chelsea and Krystal grew up together- Krystal practiced having a younger sibling on Chelsea by chasing her around trying to fix her hair. Chelsea would never let her. Over their lifetime together, they have developed a relationship that entails knowing what the other needs without having to say anything. They shared 4 years of sharing an apartment in Brooklyn, where they advised each other, binge watched netflix together, and took care of each other like the primas they are!
Greg O'Grady
Groomsman
Once when they were younger, Tim tried to sue Greg for infringing on his brand. The lawsuit was dismissed as frivolous as Greg was able to establish the authenticity of his last name, thus proving he was not in fact adopted. Although even the judge acknowledged Greg's apparent knock off of Tim's patented good looks. While Tim is 8 years older, Greg never knew the world without Tim. It was only natural that he be in his wedding party.
Katherine Wilson
Bridesmaid
Katherine is one of Krystal's oldest friends. They met at Sparta High School, during the swim team season. Katherine was always the cautious, logical half, while Krystal was the dreamy, emotional half. Together, they balance each other out perfectly. They continue their friendship in adulthood by going to museum parties, going to brunch/ dinner, and now they are in each other's weddings!
Andrew Braun
Groomsman
A man whose reputation precedes him to the most remote places on Earth. Tim and Andrew met in Iceland several years ago, possibly for the third or 300th time. Braun claims he wasn't at the BBQ where these Icelandic plans were made, but arrived in Iceland all the same. He's also admitted to having trouble recognizing faces. Tim's however is a face he'll never forget. During the First Look at Andrew's wedding, Braun turned to look deep into the eyes of his bride and found Tim in a wedding dress looking back. Turns out he does recognize some faces. Tim, however, narrowly escaped the prank without getting kissed or punched.
Stephanie Taliaferro
Bridesmaid
Stephanie is Krystal's prima (cousin). Stephanie and Krystal spent a lot of their elementary school years together playing at Stephanie's house after school. They would always play house and tea parties and Stephanie would always want to be in charge. Now, they spend their time with Stephanie's daughter, Isabella, and continue to play tea parties. As adults and teachers, they spend their time talking about education and advising each other!
Errol Ismail
Groomsman
Arguably the most fit of the groomsmen, Errol agreed to be Tim's groomsman to improve the athletic average of the group. Errol and Tim met at a BBQ years ago at a time when Errol was questioning his legal career as a lawyer. Weeks later when the BBQ damage was apparent, Tim called Errol and asked him to provide personal training services from Errols new start up Maestro Training. Errol and Tim quickly became friends.
Rosalinda Quiles
Junior Bridesmaid
Rosalinda is Krystal's youngest sister. Krystal is also Rosie's godmother and is like a second mother to Rosie. Rosie can do no wrong in Krystal's eyes and works hard at getting good grades. Krystal advises Rosie about her education. Now that Rosie is getting older, they spend their time chatting on Instagram and going out to eat!
