Maid of Honor
"I am lucky enough to have known this beautiful bride-to-be for her entire life. She has been the best sister and friend I could have asked for. I might have gently nudged her over when she was learning to walk and I may have tied her to the fence in our backyard when we were small, but I always made sure she had an ample amount of juice and goldfish crackers. After all of that, she still trusts me to stand by her side on the most important day of her life and I couldn't be more honored. I love you my Al Bal!"
Best Man
As someone whose life has been touched by Dan, I can easily say that his presence is one that never ceases to selflessly give. Dan shines in peoples lives, he empowers others to be their best, he lifts them up to meet their potential, and he is never hesitant to offer his presence, to those who may be in need of a lightened heart that has been made to feel heavy in a tumultuous world. Dan has been my business partner, climbing partner, teacher, bandmate, confidant, emergency contact, but most importantly my friend for 25+ years. As his friend, life has been nothing short of an adventure and I am incredibly lucky to celebrate the continuation of Dan and Ali’s journey as they commit to what will clearly be a joyous future together

"Ali and I met when Dan(ger) brought her over to my birthday party. I was so nervous to meet her because Dan(ger) said he really liked this girl, and being one of the few girls in my group of friends, I felt it was so important for me to get along with her. As soon as I met Ali, I knew he'd found the one! Not only did I get along with her, but she quickly became one of my best friends. We've already made some amazing memories since then and I'm so excited for our future adventures together!"

Dan and I went to the same high school. Though we were in different grades, it wasn’t until college where we truly were introduced. . As Dan and I grew closer as friends we shared many memories together; endless red rocks concerts, camping trips, nights in Old Town, and road trips, Jewish events, Mishawaka shows and lots of time chilling outside playing music. Dan since has quickly grown into my best friend; playing mandolin for my wedding, being there for each-other during the hardest times of our lives, and the most impactful when he introduced me to the love of my life. We couldn’t be happier to see him find the perfect woman for his soul and thank G-d we love Ali too! We can’t wait to continue the journey and the beautiful adventures we will all share together!

Ali is my oldest friend. We met during middle school and I think I can safely say this was the most awkward period of both our lives and we somehow managed to get through it together. This initial bond led to endless afternoons and evenings at the Weiss’s spent sitting on the floor and contemplating the vast mysteries of the teenage universe. when Ali had her first date with Dan she was supposed to meet me afterward to spill all the tea on him, but she asked if we could reschedule because the date was going so well! Also, did I mention we were born on the exact same day in the same hospital with the same name? Because it just wouldn’t be right if I didn’t share that tidbit! Love you Ali, so excited to be a part of your special day!

Some say that a person must fill one role in a relationship to another person, but I’ve never found that to be the case with Daniel. Friend, brother, confidant, all are roles that he has taken with poise passion and patience. I couldn’t ask for a better person in my corner, and am lucky that I got him.
Bridesmaid
Thanks to our friend and fellow bridesmaid, Alli, I had the sincere pleasure of meeting Ali after getting invited to her place for a Bachelor viewing party. This began a tradition of Monday night girls' nights with wine and countless conversations about life. Over the years, Ali has played a big part in making Denver feel like home. She gets me, makes me laugh, and fills a special spot in my heart. We share the same major, extreme indecisiveness, taste in movies and movie snacks, and our birthday! ! Ali stood by my side as I married my person and I couldn't be more honored to stand next to her and Dan on their special day. I consider these two lifelong friends and I cannot wait to keep enjoying life together!

Dan and I met my second year of college at CSU. We started hanging out more and our friendship grew and blossomed into a brotherhood. Coincidently, I was around when Dan and his lovely wife to be had their first date. Dan would return later that night, after a jaunt at the dog park and an extended dinner that lasted all the way up until the restaurant had to close. When Dan got home he had a gigantic smile spread across his face, gently raised his hands ever so slightly, and with a twinkle in his eye and in a very soft and suave voice, he simply said “Dude!” I knew right then that he had found his special person. I could not be happier for my brother and so far it’s been the best of rides with only more to come.

I have known Ali since the early days of High School, where we (along with Alli!) supported each other through all of the growth (and of course, awkward years) that High School brings. As fellow members of the music program (me, the band nerd and her the lovely choir singer) most of my best memories from those teenage years involve Ali - which often included long talks over cookie dough in her kitchen. Her kind heart, generosity and incredible sense of humor made for such a fun and strong friendship that has lasted through high school and beyond. Even though we're separated by 1,016 miles (but who's counting?) I can always count on Ali to be there for me, and I am so excited to be there for her on her big day!

I met Dan over a decade ago! We met at Ranch camp the summer of 2007 before our freshman year of College at CSU. We were co-counselors, College roommates, co-troublemakers, and continue to be close friends. We have been there for each other through the ups and downs in life, and I attribute a large portion of my success and happiness to having Dan in my life. Love you brother, and I am so happy for you and Ali!
Bridesmaid
Ali and I met through our mutual group of friends we call “The Cool Kids”. We first met at Dan and Sam Siegel’s home when gathering for a fun evening. The groom and I went to college together at CSU and even shared a house together with Dan and Sam. I’ve known Dan in other relationships, but I have never seen him this happy and I could not picture him with anyone else but Ali. They truly are a great couple, and I am excited to see this next chapter begin. I feel blessed to be a part of their special day.

Dan is one of my oldest friends and I feel blessed to have him in my life. We first crossed paths early on in high school through NFTY and even went to Israel together way back in 2006. I love every aspect of our friendship. No matter the setting Dan is always grounded and true to himself. He has been a shoulder to lean on in hard times and a joyous, compassionate presence through the rest. I’m proud to call Dan a brother and couldn’t be happier to be there for him as he and Ali step into the next chapter of their life!

Ten years ago I came to visit Colorado. Dan Yolles was one of the first smiling faces I met. Of course, it was for a “Cheese” show. At that time, Colorado was not home and I thought I was just visiting for a couple days. But as those days turned into over a week, my plans to move back to California quickly faded. I’m deeply thankful to “Danger” for always making me feel among family & realize I had found my home. Dan is always there through good times and tough times, not to mention countless camping trips & concerts at Red Rocks. Even in hard times, Dan is a beacon of positive energy & spiritual optimism. It has been amazing to watch his career grow and evolve, bringing his passion for music and spirituality together. I can’t wait to watch Dan and Ali bring this passion to their new life!
