Vanesa & Tom
Wedding Party
Tania Weiner
Maid of Honor
We been friends over a decade. From crazy single ladies, to her wedding and watching her become an amazing wife & mother to her beautiful girls. So many laughs, tears, and priceless moments. We have grown a beautiful friendship & I am so blessed to have her in my life. I don't know what would I do without her...
Brian Jarosinski
Best Man
Brian has been a man of many roles - drinking buddy, financial advisor, good friend, drinking buddy, networking colleague, wing man, (more often Tom as wing man), did we mention drinking buddy, and now best man. Have known Brian a long time and enjoyed so many great times with him. Always fun and seeing the bright side of life. So proud to have this fine man as best man.
Hannah Haberkamp
Bridesmaid
My dear cousin Hannah has been like a sister growing up. From wild trips, English mentor, fashion consultant, therapist, dance partnert, borrowing clothes or sharing advice. I been fortunate to have many adventures together with this wild soul. She always manages to put a smile on your face!
Cathy Rodriguez
Bridesmaid
Hard working, intelligent & caring, beautiful woman! We go back to crazy bosses, coffee buddies, gym buddies and I would say that I miss having her by my side every day! She was the only one who managed to make me wake up to go to have breakfast at Panera Bread at 7am. Cathy you are an amazing woman!
Deisy Neuto
Bridesmaid
The say blood runs thick.. and this Colombian was no exception. We met more than ten years ago, the same day I met Tania. Even at a distance we remain pretty close. She is the only one who will read 500 messages from me in one day! Life has brought us together and through even hard times we have grown a powerful friendship! PS Only Tom gets more messages per day.... but Deisy has more patience :)
Jason Weiner
Groomsman
I have known Jason as a friend since just before I met Vanesa. But he's become much more since. No one has a greater knowledge of obscure historical facts as well as technical details about building renovation, the ingredients of both food and cocktails on any restaurant menu, and a perfect memory of 80's television show heroes as well as doing a great impression of some of our friends. He's become a very good friend and a frequent beach, dining and sports companion. So proud to have Jason in the wedding party.
Juan Carlos Arias
Groomsman
Juan Carlos is far more than the Steve McQueen/"Towering Inferno" image of a firefighter I had before meeting him. He's a firefighter so dedicated to his job. He's a great brother to my soon-to-be-wife and a caring person to his wife and his family. I've greatly enjoyed getting to know him and appreciate his advice on how to be a good husband to his sister.
Matthew Maronick
Groomsman
My brother is one of the smartest people I know. He lives in a world where there is no challenge too great for him. He now lives in the Chicago area and yes, he speaks fluent Spanish! I am proud of all the things he's accomplished and for all the years he has travelled the road with me. He helped me make one of the most important decisions in my life when he told me I definitely needed to go to law school. And he was right.
