Crystalin & Garrick
Wedding Party
Karli Tsuge
Matron of Honor
Karli and the Bride have been best friends since 3rd grade when they both cheered in Pop Warner. Since then, Crystalin was her stunt base through high school, her long distance bestie through college, and roommate for most of 2016. You can count on Karli to always have a listening ear, suggest playing smoke and fire, or try a new trendy restaurant. (ps Crystalin was a bridesmaid in Karli's wedding in July!)
Jacob Heller
Groomsman
Jacob and Garrick have known each other since Jacob was born! Garrick had a vendetta because Jacob (born January 10th) was the first birthday of the year instead of his on the 28th. Since then, they have gotten exceptionally close and both love Ducks hockey. Jacob is away at college in Colorado but Garrick always finds time for Chronic Taco when he is home.
Ashley De La Mater
Bridesmaid
Ashley and Crystalin have been best friends since High School! They spent many days going to football games, wrestling matches and every high school dance. Now, they spend even more time together because their men are fond of each other (See Cody in groom's section). They share an obsession for TJ Maxx, crafting, a good deal, shopping and sushi!
Cody De La Mater
Groomsman
Cody and Garrick knew each other in high school, but have gotten significantly closer recently because Cody's wife is Crystalin's bridesmaid (they spend A LOT of time together). Cody and Garrick both love beer, sushi, big trucks, handyman jobs and bbq-ing. If you happen to see Cody and Garrick together, you might have to do a double take because they tend to dress and look similar!
Amanda Dabbas
Bridesmaid
Amanda and Crystalin became friends in high school while in the youth program at Church. Crystalin has been missing her for the past year while she has been serving as a missionary in Romania. She is glad to have her back home because she couldn't picture her wedding day without her!
Broc Bonham
Groomsman
Broc and Garrick met in 2016 and were instant friends over race trucks, supercross and mechanics. They both also like to golf, bowl and enjoy a cold beer. Broc has a way of bringing Garrick out of his shell and they have gotten close over the last years. Garrick is stoked to have Broc as a friend and groomsman.
Jeffrey Power
Bridesman
Jeff and Crystalin met at registration for college at CSULB. It might be his favorite story to tell, so go ahead and ask him for the details. Long story short - Jeff and Crystalin (who he calls CJ) took every class together freshman year, and hit it off as friends right away. They both are fond of learning new things, greek food, punk goes pop cd's and venting to each other!
Brian Simrak
Groomsman
Garrick met Brian shortly after he met Crystalin since they are brother and sister. They both love to watch tv, sports and both really enjoy drinking a beer and saying "Dilly Dilly" just to annoy Crystalin. They have been unofficial roommates and brothers for over 5 years, and now they get to make it official!
