Danielle & Zayne
Wedding Party
Ariana Dinberg
Maid of Honor
Ariana is the youngest, tallest sister, but she is simultaneously the silliest and most level headed of the two of us. We could not be more different in personality, but we share a passion for animals and a love of sports. Ariana is fiercely loyal and genuinely the funniest person I have ever met. There is never a time with Ariana that doesn't involve us giggling. She is not only my sister but my closest friend. Most recently, I've been lucky to see Ariana embrace Zayne as a friend and family member. I'm so lucky to have her as my maid of honor!
Peter Nelson
Best Man
Peter and I have been friends since kindergarten and being one of the only few kids that lived near me that went to Pinecrest, we shared many car rides to and from practice and sporting events. Peter and I have always remained friends matter what stage of life we were in. From him doing a year abroad in Finland and me moving to Wisconsin for two years we never lost touch with one another. Visiting UGA for the first time with Peter and basically anytime we are in Athens are memories I will forever look back on with a smile. Excited to have him standing next to me on our wedding day!
Jamie Greenberg
Bridesmaid
Jamie has known me through just about every stage of life. We met at the Davis Academy in kindergarten. Jamie was a constant through the tricky high school years, but our friendship really flourished in college. We joined the same sorority, became roommates at the sorority house our sophomore year, and then spent the rest of our college years as roommates. Jamie is kind, compassionate, patient, and the absolute most wonderful friend. We share a deep love of Georgia football (and all football, I suppose) and she's a dedicated member of our family fantasy football league. She doesn't like hugs but she's going to have to deal with a few from me on our wedding day!
Andres Perez
Groomsman
Andres and I have been friends since we met in kindergarten (see pic above for proof) and stayed close friends since. Andres is one of the most humble people you will meet and I am very lucky that we were able to stay at the same school all the way through college. Growing up, Andres and I would always have joint birthday parties being only one day apart- being able to party with Andres is an experience everyone should have, so I am very excited to have him with me to celebrate our big day and all of you get to enjoy the experience as well!
Erin Thiel
Bridesmaid
Erin is one of my "horsey" friends, but she has stuck around since the 7th grade when I officially started taking horseback riding lessons at the same barn as her. We became fast friends, and she was always my horse show carpool buddy. Erin has the best laugh and sense of humor, but she's also someone you can talk about life with. She has the most fierce dedication to her animals and loves so hard, which I so admire. She's been on family vacations (my parents LOVE Erin) and we have shared so many successes and heartaches, both in the horse world and out. She is like a sister to me and is a life long friend!
Clay Davis
"Maid of the Man"
Clay met both of us in Athens separately, and we both became pretty close. We credit Clay with being the reason we both met. In fact due to his close friendship with both of us, we have dubbed him "Maid of the Man". Clay notoriously keeps me (Danielle) humble (Zayne needs less humbling), and is a beloved member of the squad. Clay and Zayne share a love of sports, video games and playing trivia (shoutout HotOnes). Clay has been a truly devoted friend and someone we could not imagine being without on our wedding day.
Leah Elgart
Bridesmaid
Leah and I have unofficially known each other since we were 7. Both of us were riding at the time. Leah then came to Davis, and we grew closer. In Middle and High School, Leah and I spent pretty much every day and weekend together. She was always my biggest cheerleader (and gossip buddy.) Erin, Leah, and I had countless late night hotel giggles, knowing we had to be up and at a horse show by 6:30 AM the next day. I am so proud of her for pursuing her dream in the horse world. Leah is someone who I can always call and we can pick up right where we left off- no matter how much time has passed. We truly have grown up together- I'm grateful that she will be there for all the biggest moments.
Adam Rocko
Groomsman
Adam (better known to us as Rocko) and I met in middle school and hit it off right away with our love for sports. Playing basketball in his basement and really any time we hang out it is always filled with laughs and unpredictable memories. Rocko is such a spontaneous person and someone I love being around for that reason. From him being my fantasy football commissioner and both of us being "basically" UGA students we have some many fun memories together and can't wait for another on June 21st 2025!
Caitlin Welty
Bridesmaid
Caitlin and I met in college, once Zayne and I started dating. Caitlin has an infectious laugh and the kindest energy. Caitlin is a girl's girl through and through. She is definitely my most organized and "on it" friend and I can always go to her when I need pragmatic advice. Caitlin and I also share a deep love of football, and she is a fellow Swiftie. A little over a year ago, we decided to make it a point to attend weekly trivia nights, and am SO lucky we did. Since that time, we've had a chance to connect and chat every week, and I so cherish those evenings. Now we both get to share our wedding days just a month apart <3
Samuel Purdy
Groomsman
Sam and I met at UGA and become closer with each time we would hang out. With going on beach trips and playing video games together we have become very good friends. Sam and I share a passion for Atlanta sports together and I know I can always count on him for when I need to talk about the good or the bad news involving our teams. Very happy to be able to have Sam with me on this special day!
Lily Soto
Bridesmaid
Lily is a kindred spirit! As soon as we met, I was immediately at home with Lily. She is such a support system, and someone who I can always talk to about anything life related (literally, anything). She knows how to make you feel heard and validated and I so treasure her for that. Lily does everything in her life 100% and gives the same to her friends. We have shared many long heart to hearts, beach trips, and days cheering on the Dawgs. Lily is one of those friends that you meet and know will be around for the rest of your life. I'm so excited to continue to spend all the big milestones with her over the next few years!
Santiago Villar
Groomsman
Santi and I met in fifth grade on a travel basketball team and become good friends, he later would come to Pinecrest for middle school and where we become great friends. Santi and I shared many memories playing basketball together either on the court or on a mini hoop in his house before practice. I spent plenty of weekends staying with Santi in Athens as we would watch the Dawgs play, go to concerts or even watching amateur wrestling- we have created many memories and look forward to many more including him being with me on our wedding day!
Hannah Ornelles
Bridesmaid
Hannah and I met on Facebook. We both were moving miles away from home for graduate school and knew no one. We quickly bonded over our mutual love of our dogs (I know no-one except Hannah who is genuinely excited to be pounced on at 7 AM by a dog that isn't yours). Our friendship grew over our mutual love of snow, and our old, rickety Harvey house. In our years at graduate school, we trained for a half marathon, played kickball, and even learned how to make Challah (anyone who knows my lack of baking skills would be impressed.) Fridays were always marked by girl nights, and our days were filled with lots of puppy snuggles. Hannah is a treasure of a human and I'm so lucky to have her as a lifelong friend and bridesmaid.
Bailey
Dog of honor
If you know us you know our girl Bailey! She came around shortly after we got together and has been a constant in our relationship. To know her is to love her. Bailey is a special girl and we’re excited to include her in our day!
