Wedding Party

Pam Gasper

Mother of the Groom

Pam is the foundation of the Gasper family—strong, loyal, and fiercely hardworking. She raised Mike with a deep sense of responsibility, grit, and the kind of determination that shows up in everything he does. Her strength and steady support have shaped his path in countless ways, and we’re so proud to celebrate this moment with her by our side.


Parwin and John Saidi

Parents of the Bride

John and Parwin Saidi and are steadfast, selfless, and deeply rooted in love and resilience. With quiet strength, endless generosity, and more sacrifices than most will ever know, they built the kind of life that made this celebration possible. Their journey, and the values they passed down along the way, have shaped who Wazhma is and what matters most to her. Having them by our side for this celebration is a profound joy and honor.

Andrew Gasper

Best Man

Andy is Mike’s twin brother—same age, different brains, and the person who’s been around for every version of Mike. He’s quick, clever, and quietly one of the most solid people in Mike’s life. Over the years, he’s been a builder, a sounding board, a challenger, and a constant. Mike trusts him deeply and loves him in the way only a twin can.


Rosalind Rogers

Maid of Honor

Roz is one of Wazhma’s closest friends and someone who’s felt like chosen family from the very beginning. She’s vibrant, loyal, deeply thoughtful, and the kind of friend who shows up with both honesty and heart. Their friendship has been shaped by laughter, traveling the world, and showing up for each other through it all. Having Roz stand beside Wazhma in this role means the world.

Munjeet Singh

Groomsman

Munjeet is both Mike’s friend and brother-in-law, and someone who’s been a steady part of our lives for years. He’s full of energy, quick with a joke, and brings an easy warmth to every space he’s in. He and Mike have built a friendship that goes beyond family—rooted in trust, shared laughs, and showing up when it counts. We’re grateful to have him by our side for this celebration.


Nilofer Saidi

Matron of Honor

Nilofer is Wazhma’s oldest sister—the original big sis and forever protective presence. She’s bold, smart, hilarious when you least expect it, and the kind of person who shows up fully, every time. She's been many things to Wazhma over the years: guide, mirror, hype woman, and reality check. All of them with love.

Ethan Cox

Groomsman

Ethan is one of Mike’s best friends and has been since junior high. He’s sharp, grounded, effortlessly funny—and quite possibly the origin of Mike’s sense of humor. Their friendship has spanned years, group chats, wild ideas, and very specific inside jokes. Mike has always looked up to him (yes, still), and there’s no way this day would happen without him.


Senzela Saidi

Bridesmaid

Senzela is Wazhma’s sister and someone who brings thoughtfulness, depth, and just the right amount of mischief. Over the years, they’ve shared travels, late-night talks, and more inside jokes than they can count. Their bond is full of shared stories, unspoken understanding, and a lot of laughing at things no one else finds funny.

Justin Mongold

Groomsman

Justin is one of Mike’s closest friends and someone who's been part of his life for years. He’s thoughtful, steady, and always shows up with intention and care. Mike values his friendship deeply and is proud to have him standing beside him.


Alisha Gasper

Bridesmaid

Alisha is Wazhma’s sister-in-law and one of her best friends. They’ve known each other since junior high and were close long before Mike and Wazhma ever started dating. Now, they’re family in every sense of the word—and having Alisha by Wazhma’s side means everything.

Tim Saidi

Groomsman

Tim is Mike’s brother-in-law and friend. He and Mike have known each other since college and have shared years of conversation, competition, and connection. These days, they bond over sports, stocks, and every “what if” scenario you can think of. Mike is grateful to have him here.


Grace Fairchild Saidi

Bridesmaid

Grace is Wazhma’s sister-in-law and someone who brings lightness, laughter, and a great sense of humor to every space she’s in. She has a way of making people feel comfortable and seen, and Wazhma is so glad to have her as part of this day.

Chris Myers

Groomsman

Chris is Mike’s brother-in-law and a good friend. They’ve shared many easy conversations over the grill or a cold drink, and Mike appreciates his reliability, sense of humor, and the way he shows up without needing to be asked. It means a lot to have him here.


Nastaran Myers

Bridesmaid

Nastaran is Wazhma’s sister and someone who has been part of her life story from the very start. Their relationship, like many between sisters, has grown and evolved over the years—shaped by shared history, big family moments, and the kind of connection that only siblings truly understand. These days, they laugh more than anything, often at things no one else would find funny. Wazhma is thankful to have her here for this day.

Joey Burton

Ring Bearer

Joey is Wazhma and Mike’s nephew and Mike’s godson. He’s kind, curious, and always up for a new role—and he’s taking his ring bearer duties seriously. We’re so excited to watch him shine on this special day.


Norah Myers

Flower Girl

Norah is Wazhma and Mike’s niece and has fully embraced her role as flower girl. She’s been looking forward to "her big day" for months and brings so much excitement and joy to the celebration. We can’t wait to see her in action.

Lynndi Cox

Wedding Attendant

Lynndi is one of Wazhma’s oldest and dearest friends. They’ve been close since high school and grew even closer through college classes, work shifts, and countless football games. She’s sharp, funny, thoughtful, and always brings deep insight and great conversation. Wazhma couldn’t imagine this day without her.


Binu Singh

Wedding Attendant

Binu is one of Wazhma’s closest friends—loyal, brilliant, and endlessly thoughtful. She knows all the trivia answers, always remembers the little things, and is the kind of friend who makes everything better just by being there. Wazhma is especially grateful she moved to D.C.

Elina Myers

Wedding Attendant

Elina is Wazhma and Mike’s niece and someone who brings joy, curiosity, and a big heart wherever she goes. She’s thoughtful, observant, and always ready to help—or jump into the fun. Her presence in this celebration adds something special, and we’re so happy to have her as part of the day.


Sophia Burton

Usher

Sophia is a niece full of style, wit, and excellent taste—in music, fashion, and just about everything else. She introduced Wazhma to K-pop and takes well-deserved pride in it. She’ll be welcoming guests and helping everyone get situated for the ceremony with her usual mix of warmth and confidence.

Aydin Myers

Usher

Aydin is a nephew who brings quiet creativity, curiosity, and a thoughtful presence wherever he goes. He has a natural way of noticing the details others miss and is always creating or imagining something new. He’ll be helping guide guests during the ceremony, making sure everyone feels comfortable and knows where to go.


Milad Singh

Usher

Milad is a nephew with sharp instincts, hilarious timing, and a constant stream of clever one-liners. He has a way of making people feel at ease and bringing energy to any room. During the ceremony, he’ll be helping guests settle in and find their spots—likely with a smile and a joke along the way.
