Wedding Party
Esther Choe
Matron of Honor
My best friend and matron of honor is more than just a friend; she’s my rock, my confidante, and the sister I never had. From the very first day we met in college, she’s been by my side through every high and low, offering unwavering support and endless laughter. She’s helped me grow in ways I never thought possible, teaching me to step outside my comfort zone while always respecting my boundaries. The bond we share is so much deeper than friendship—it’s a love built on trust, understanding, and years of unforgettable memories. I am beyond grateful for her, and I will always be here for her, just as she has been for me, no matter what life brings.
Kavita Coomar
Bridesmaid
Kavita is someone I’ve been lucky to know since middle school, and over the years, she has become one of the most important people in my life. She is fiercely strong and independent, with a heart that cares deeply for those she loves. I can always count on her for the honest truth, no matter how hard it may be to hear, and her perspective is one I hold in the highest regard. As I step into this next chapter of my life, I can't imagine going through it without her by my side. She is truly a treasure, and I am so grateful to have her with me on this special journey.
Melissa Baltazar
Bridesmaid
Melissa and I have been through it all together, from nursing school to grad school, and I honestly wouldn’t have made it without her. Her friendship means the world to me because she not only understands the demands of our careers but also shares my sense of humor, my love for dogs, and our mutual appreciation for a good glass of wine or cocktail. Our bond is even deeper because we met our partners at the same time and have navigated our relationship journeys side by side. Melissa is a light in my life—both a natural beauty inside and out—and she always goes the extra mile to make sure I’m well taken care of.
Ashi Gautam
Bridesmaid
I remember the day she came into my life like it was yesterday. I was so excited to have a baby sister, and from that moment on, she has been such a blessing to our family. Watching her grow into the incredible person she is today has been one of the greatest joys of my life. Ashi has this remarkable ability to adapt and connect with everyone around her—whether she's a strong, independent doctor to her patients, a playful, silly sister to her cousins, or a loving, caring daughter and granddaughter to her family. Even though I’m ten years older than her, I can honestly say I look up to her in so many ways. Her intelligence, compassion, and balance of strength and warmth inspire me every day. I’m so proud to call her my cousin and bridesmaid.
Saira Bhagat
Bridesmaid
My little cousin, Saira, may be young, but she already has the most strong, feisty personality. I absolutely love her sassiness and the way she pours her heart into everything she believes in. She’s unapologetically passionate, and it’s one of the things that makes her so incredibly special. No matter how much she grows, she will always be the baby girl of our family, and I will always be here to help her navigate the craziness that life will inevitably throw her way. I’m so excited to see what the future holds for her, and I have no doubt she’ll succeed in everything she sets her mind to.
Matt Forgey
Best Man
Matt is someone who has been a constant source of kindness, humor, and support in my life. We first met during middle school PE while running laps, and who would have thought that a simple moment like that would spark a friendship that has lasted through so many changes and milestones? His loyalty and the countless memories we’ve shared have made him more than a friend—he’s truly family to me. As I prepare to start this next chapter of my life, I couldn’t imagine anyone else standing by my side as my best man. His presence is a reminder of the love, laughter, and support that have shaped so much of who I am today. I’m beyond grateful to have him not only as a friend but as a brother for life.
Kenny Snyder
Groomsman
I first met Ken in high school, but it was our time rock climbing at Hangar 18 that truly solidified our friendship. From that point on, Ken and I have shared countless adventures—skiing and snowboarding, paddle boarding, outdoor rock climbing, and even ziplining. He’s always been up for any challenge and has a knack for making every experience unforgettable. Beyond the adventures, Ken has been an incredible champion of mine. He’s always rooting for me, encouraging me to reach new heights, and offering help when I need it most. Ken’s friendship is something I deeply value, and I’m so grateful to have him as part of this special day and this new chapter in my life
Mark Hervey
Groomsman
Mark became part of my life when he and my sister started dating, and since then, time has truly flown. Over the years, he has become much more than just my sister’s husband—he’s become a true brother to me. I couldn’t imagine a better person for my sister or a more perfect addition to our family. One of the things I admire most about Mark is his incredible ability to take care of everyone, often through his amazing homemade food that brings people together. His kindness, thoughtfulness, and talent make him someone I deeply respect and care for. I’m so grateful to have Mark standing with me as I take this next step in life. Having him be part of this important chapter means the world to me
