Maid of Honor
My name is Rebecca Arce and I met Cassandra in 2009 during confirmation classes at St. Pius X. We instantly clicked and became the closest of friends. We bonded over Ke$ha songs and the lord. She has taught me so many ways to be loving and understanding not only to other people but myself. Once she started dating Victor I had no doubt in my mind that they would ever find anyone else that made them feel what they do when they’re together. I’m so grateful to be witnessing the love between them not only on their wedding day but for the rest of their lives. I hope you both continue to grow and love each other as you’ve already been doing. I hope you always have a spare bedroom for me to crash. And lastly, I hope you continue to bring out the best in each other.
Best Man
Theology class my freshman year - that’s where it all started. We sat next to each other at the beginning of that semester and quickly became friends. Report cards came out for that semester and my mom saw the comments next to the grade which said, “Raul is a Great student, well-spoken, but talks to Victor too much” at which point my mom asked, “Who’s Victor?” Little did I know that the same guy in Theology class that got me in trouble would become one of my best friends; family; my brother. I’m honored to be his best man. It’s ironic, how a class that we took in high school about faith would be the cornerstone and foundation for Cassie’s and Victor's marriage. I’m so excited and beyond happy for the two of them. They are my best friends and deserve all the love and happiness in the world.

Cassandra and I met in high school—incredible that it’s been 10+ years now! She has always been the sweetest, kindest soul and brightens the lives of everyone around her. I am so grateful that our friendship has lasted through the years. She has been a true and reliable support to me through high school, college, and medical school even though I’m now a state away in Arizona. I am so thrilled for Cassie & Victor to tie the knot and cannot imagine two people better suited for one another. They have weathered the tests of time, distance, and all the curveballs that life has thrown their way, and have loved and supported each other through them, and come out stronger on the other side. Looking forward to all of the amazing things ahead of you two and to celebrating your big day in August!

Victor and I met in high school. My first memory of Victor was when he tried out for baseball and didn't make it past the first day of conditioning. Our friendship really took off our senior year when we all started hanging out during lunch and after school. After we graduated we kept in touch and hung out during breaks and summer vacation. During college is where I feel our core group of friends really grew closer while we were apart. I remember to this day when Victor told me how he felt for Cassie and from that moment I knew he found the one. I'm so happy for both of them but I do feel bad that Cassie is now stuck with all of us for the rest of her life. Wish nothing but the best and I am so grateful all of us get to be by Victor and Cassie's side on their special day!

I first met Cassandra in high school back in 2009 when I was just a little new freshie and Cassandra was already a junior. I joined the tennis team and it turned out Cassandra was part of it too! My first memory of her was when she held the tennis girls' sleepover at her house. At some point, Cassie and I clicked and she became like a big sister I never had. And then Victor came into her life. I cannot be more thrilled and happy and thankful that she found her perfect half. Victor and Cassandra, I wish you both a life full of God and love and babies. You can both always count on me! Can’t wait to take future baby Rodriguez in my jeep on its first road trip and hike! Love you both!!!!

I met Victor in Algebra class early on in 9th grade, and ever since then he’s been one of the most genuine, loving human beings. He was able to find the only women out there more genuine and loving than him. You both radiate such positive, accepting energy, everyone loves just being in your presence. I’m so honored to be a part of your journey, and I’m so blessed to share in your special day. The entire Burden family wishes you both nothing but the best for the rest of your time together!

It started in 2012, I realized I needed to get back into my faith. I decided to attend a young adult meeting at church and that’s when Cassie and Victor walked in. I was excited to get to know these two. As time went on, I got to witness these little crushes turn into a strong and happy relationship. They have been there for all the ups and downs in my life and they both have turned to me in their times of need. I am so happy to see how far these two have come in their relationship and blessed to still be a part of their lives. Cassie and Victor are wonderful people and I wish both of them the absolute best in their journey as a married couple. They will be great parents one day. I know that they will continue to be a beautiful witness to friendship, teamwork, and love. We love you guys!

I first met Victor during my junior year of high school at Mater Dei, but it wasn’t until my senior year where I got to know him better and develop a close friendship. Victor always hung out on campus with the baseball players, who coincidentally were some of my friends too. As a result, Victor and I naturally became close and have been good friends ever since! I want to express my sincerest form of gratitude towards Victor and Cassie for befriending me. God has placed such great people in my life. Having friends like Victor and Cassie truly is a privilege and nothing short of a blessing! Your relationship with each other is the epitome of what a strong, passionate, and loving relationship should be. I wish you both the best on your new journey together.

My relationship with Cassie started several years ago when Cassie and Victor started dating. I was so eager to get to know her and at first, I remember her being very shy, but as the years passed she fit right in with our crazy and loud family! Not only do I love that she makes Victor happy but she has always felt like family. I love nothing more than seeing how happy Cassie and Victor make each other and even though I had a feeling all along they would end up together, I am honored to be a witness to their love. I pray that your guys' marriage is filled with peace and love and that every day together is filled with laughter and adventure. Cheers to the two of you and may God continue to bless you guys. LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!

I’ve known Victor for around 13 years now. We met at some point during high school and I wish I had a cool, funny story about how we came to be friends, but I don’t remember the exact moment. Victor is truly one of the kindest and supportive people I know. Always there for me with advice, words of encouragement, and some of the most random jokes you could imagine. I’m so happy he’s found the perfect partner for life because he deserves it. I send all my love and well wishes to Victor and Cassie for their wedding and future together. It seems funny to wish them well because I’ve never been more sure of anything in my life. From their kindness to their big hearts, to their faith; you couldn’t create a more complete match if you tried. Love you both, can’t wait to celebrate with you!
