Wedding Party
Nadira Weerasekara
Maid of Honor
Nadira has been my amazing & loving best friend since the first day of 3rd grade. For the last 16+ years of my life, she has always been there for me and has supported me through everything. I am so blessed to have a friend like her and to have had the perfect childhood we had together. I would not be who I am today with out her, she has helped shape who I am. She is my ride or die, my support system, the first person I tell everything to, my family. I couldn't be more happy & honored to have her as my Maid of Honor and to have her stand right by me on my special day.
Sophia Wright
Bridesmaid
Sophia is one of my closest & dearest friends for 10+ years, we share the last name so naturally we’re sisters. From the first day meeting her in dance class she has loved and supported me through every up and down in my life. We both share love for musical theatre & she is my number one partner in karaoke. And let me tell you, that's a hard friend to find. I'm truly blessed to have such a pure hearted person in my life & to stand by me on my wedding day.
Hailee Wright
Bridesmaid
Hailee is my wonderful sister, and we like to consider ourselves twins since we are only 3 months apart. Growing up, we never really saw eye to eye. Our mother always said that us fighting means we will be closer when we get older. Man oh man was she right. For whatever life throws at us, we will always be there for each other & lift one up if the other is down. Im very thankful for Hailee and always looking forward to our next adventure. I can not wait to have her standing next to me on while I change my last name.
Christa Renfrew
Bridesmaid
Christa has been my incredible friend for around 5 years now & is one of the most caring people I have ever met. Christa's love and dedication in our friendship has truly shown with her creativeness in making my dream wedding come to life. It is hard to explain how much this girl means to me. 5 minutes with Christa and you're having the time of your life, she really lights a room up. I am so incredibly honored that she will be standing up there with me while marrying my best friend.
Makenzie Talin
Bridesmaid
Makenzie and I have been friends for about 9 years. It is so crazy to think how time has flown by but it also feels like I have known her my whole life. Makenzie has been there in the highest of highs and the lowest of my lows. She's the kind of girl that will always encourage you and support you through anything. I truly cherish and value our memories and & I am excited for the crazy things we will get into in the future. I am so blessed to have her stand by my side while I marry the love of my life.
Rachel Williams
Bridesmaid
My Godsister Rachel is the most smart, thoughtful, and down to earth person I know. We have been blessed with very memorable childhood provided by both our mothers bond with our Godmother Aunt Mary Jane. I miss Aunt MJ so much but I get a piece of her through Rachel. I know she is looking down from heaven & is very proud of us. I'm so grateful for every laugh, cry, smile, and frown with Rachel. I will always be there for her and her standing by me on my wedding day means the whole world.
Kendra Foster
Bridesmaid
Kendra has been a dear friend since literally as long as I can remember. Growing up together is something I will hold onto forever. I remember all of our all nighter sleepovers, walking to Simone's donuts together at 5am, performing VBS songs for kids at church, and our many many beach days together. I cherish our childhood memories very much and I am thankful for the many more to come. I couldn't imagine not having her up there with me while I say I do.
Kriag Butler
Best Man
The best little brother a guy could ask for, Kraig Butler, all I can say is that life puts us through series of tests. Through these tests we experience moments of joy, pain, defeat, and accomplishments, but it’s a lot easier to deal with when you have someone to walk shoulder to shoulder with. Our bond is like a rock in the midst of a storm. There is no challenge we cannot face together , in our weakest times, and most radiant days we remember each other. United by a bond that no distance or difficulty could ever break. I love you B.
Nate Evans
Groomsman
Nate was the first friend I ever had. We met in kindergarten but growing up we would say our moms met in the delivery room and even if that may have not been true our friendship and brotherhood is as real as it gets, I can remember running around the desert behind Nate’s house catching lizards and scorpions trying to convince his mom to lets us keep them all as pets, when we weren’t in the desert we would ride our bikes around with the other neighborhood boys. Nate was the first person i called my best friend and I couldn’t of picked better. Its been 25yrs and as we get older our lives have made it so we don’t see each other as often as we’d like but the love-respect-and trust we have for one another has not changed.
Nick King
Groomsman
Mr.King was the coolest kid I had ever met growing up. Nick was the best at everything and all the girls loved him but Nick didnt pay them any attention. Nick was determined and focused to be the best in anything that was a competition. But he wasn’t a bully, wasn’t a showoff, and never a poor looser (kind of easy if you win all the time). Nick was humble, kind, passionate, he always wanted the guy next to him to be just as good as him. He would take it upon himself to help teach and lead others so that they develop their skills because Nick understood that the team was only as good as the weakest player and for that I have always admired him. Im grateful and honored to have this man be on my team for this game called life.
Kyle Lass
Groomsman
Lass and I met in the 6th grade but really didn’t become friends until two years later in 8th grade . Besides sharing the same name, Kyle and myself felt like the same person. I mean we had the same hobbies, same friends, both loved football and girls. I mean it truly felt like we were looking at a mirror. And as legend has it the birth of K-Squared was among Southern California’s Coachella Valley. Yup Kyle & Kyle! You never saw one without the other. Kyle Lass is my brother and i love this man as if my very own mother brought him into this world. Kyle and I have been through anything you can think of. Good-Bad-Sad-Mad, Kyle and I will always have each others back and will continue to until we are six feet deep.
Gabe Nevins
Groomsman
I met Gabe while riding bikes around the neighborhood with Nathan Evens, Gabe was a lot smaller than the rest of the guys but had the swagger and confidence of a giant. Gabe was an only child but you would never know it because Jen & Russ(Gabe’s parents) always made everyone feel like they were apart of the family, we would hangout at the Nevin’s house all the time, Jen would make the best snacks and Russ was king of the BBQ. Growing up together we’ve seen a lot of changes in one another’s life. Braces, acne, first girlfriends, first sign of facial hair, that came a few years earlier for me but that besides the point. Gabe is someone im blessed to have in my life, grateful to call friend, and honored to have as a brother. Hopefully I can persuade Gabe and his growing family to move to Montana so that our children may grow and share they journey of life as we did.
Andrew Allessio
Groomsman
Man O’Man, in short this guy right here is the (Ying to my Yang) DrewBoi-DrewDoggy-Drew. I mean honestly I had never in my life met someone who I instantaneously clicked with. 5mins after we met I fully understood this man and he fully understood me. As we discussed and dissected our lives, there were moments of silence that we both used to try and figure out how we grew up in the same valley and with incredible similar upbringings but did not meet until our early twenties. I love this man and all that comes with him, Drew has amazing energy that brings amazing people together, I don’t truly have the right words to describe how much i appreciate this man in my life.
Max Sewell
Groomsman
Max is another kind soul that I did not have the pleasure of meeting until my early 20’s. Max was a life long friends with Andrew(DrewDogg) and so naturally I knew we would be boys but what really rooted our friendship was the familiarity of Max’s presence. Max reminded me so much of my younger brother Kraig, so much that I knew they would connect the same way me and Drew did. Max can turn a horrible day into one of the most memorable times you ever recall just from cracking a few jokes, on top of that he’ll also throw down some of the best BBQ you’ll ever taste. Max has stood shoulder to shoulder with me thru some of the hardest struggles in my life and has always been there to help get me back on my feet, Im honored to call him my brother and love this man dearly.
