Wedding Party
Meridian DellaPenna
Maid of Honor
It's special to have someone in this world that knows exactly what you are thinking without saying it, that's Meridian. The list of memories through our travels, hot tubs, and farolito walks are countless. Through our love of puns, tequila and importantly queso, it is an unstoppable friendship that only continues to grow over time.
Tikal Mcgorty
Bridesmaid
When we met in high school, our relationship was an unbreakable bond. No matter where we were in the world or where we were in our path of life, we always managed to keep in touch and evolved through life together. Beware, her smile is contagious and it's always brightened my day to see each other happy through our various forms of communicaiton throughout the years.
Bevin McPartion
Bridesmaid
The one with the heart of gold. When I think of Bevin, I think of warmth and that's probably why I call her so much. When we connect, we listen to each other through ups and downs, laugh over wine, or get cozy on the couch with our pets. She gets me out of the house and into nature and is never afraid to be honest while giving you a loving hug at the same time.
Maredith Davis
Bridesmaid
We originally met in preschool, and as you can imagine, we have gone through so many ways of life since. With our own language, we truly understand each other. When we are together, we can pick up to where we left off and continue to dance through the streets, or the parks or a balcony or a porch. We just keep dancing.
Alicia Bertram
Bridesmaid
We met at Vodka Latke, and the rest was history. We can talk about anything for hours upon hours and can laugh until we cry or cry until we laugh. The moments that stand out for me are when we can be completely silent, look at each other and simultaneously break out into laughter. The amount of love for one another is something I always cherish.
Sarah Musnitsky
Bridesmaid
My very first friend in the world! Sara had set the perfect foundations of what friendships are. The level of love and support she gives highlights the person that I want to be.I am so thankful that we never lost touch and have only grown more as we entered new chapters in our life.
Ansel Bodelson
Bridesman
What is special about my friendship with Ansel is that our connection follows with true love, care, admiration and support for one another. We laugh with each other, cry with each other, and protect each other. With such a rooted foundation, this is not something you will find in any ordinary friendship. I will always be grateful of our past, present and future memories that we will continue to have.
Alexis Carr
Bridesmaid
A friendship that started with "love at first sight" . From the moment we met, there was an automatic spark. I wasn't sure if it was through our wit or sarcasm, but it always ended with our love of wine, food...and my cats. Although our time in Santa Cruz was short, I was grateful to develop friendships that will surpass our time there. I'll always skip though the streets with glass of bubbles with you.
