Meet the Wedding Party
Johnny Ramos
Best Man
My one and only brother who also doubles as my twin, who was born 7 minutes before I was. Johnny has been such an anchor in my life and is always someone who I could call whenever I need him. He now lives in Texas with my sister-in-law Corrin, and their one of a kind dog, Beans. Although, the 1500 miles of distance between us, and his new sweet tea addiction is somewhat hard to deal with; I still love him all the same. Johnny is a great dude, incredibly funny and wise beyond his years, and also one of the most down to earth people I know. It was a no brainer having Johnny as my best man. I couldn't imagine anyone else being up there with me by my side as I begin this new chapter of my life! -Marcos
Sara Belden
Matron of Honor
Sara met me when I was born, and from that day on we have had a love hate relationship. We went through phases of our lives where we were each others best friend, and phases where we were each others worst enemy, but in the worst enemy phase of life she would come in the middle of the night, wake me up out of a deep sleep, and make me go sleep in her room because she needed me, and of course I did it with no hesitation. Sara has always been more than just my sister; she's been my rock, best friend, an ear to listen and give amazing advise, a shoulder to cry on, my protector, and an example of what not to do ;). As adults, I can not imagine spending a day without talking to her. Sara made me become my favorite version of myself that I have ever been, and that is being an auntie to her amazing daughters. This woman is extremely selfless and puts everyones wants and desires before hers, and has tremendously helped with my engagement, my wedding planning, and just my overall life because she always steps up, and that is why I couldn't have made a better decision having her be one of my right hand women. -Bailey
Matthew Ruiz
Groomsman
My day 1! Matthew and I met when we were just kids! From the days of little league ball to graduating high school together and starting our careers, we've always been by each others side. His only fault is that he's a Sacramento Kings fan, but I was always able to look past that. Matthew has always been one of the most hard working, smart, and genuine guys that I've had the pleasure to know. After seeing how great of a big brother, and friend he is to me, I cant wait to see him grow and prosper in his life in whatever he chooses to do. He has always been a person I could go to in a time of need and I couldn't be more proud to call him one of my best friends. -Marcos
Cassidie Oseguera
Maid of Honor
Cass and I met when we were in Kindergarten, and from then on she has been my best friend. We have been through every single stage of life together; middle school, high school, breakups, makeups, family struggles, losing loved ones, matching tattoos, extremely high highs and extremely low lows. Cassidie is and always has been more than a best friend, she is family to me and I mean that in a literal term her family is my family. Most of my favorite memories are shared with her. Cassidie is a special kind of person, a friendship that only comes once in a lifetime, a friendship that no matter where life takes us the bond is so strong and tight knitted that we always come back. I can easily say she has always been my number 1 supporter and my biggest cheerleader and that's why again it was such an easy decision choosing her to be by my side on this special day. -Bailey
Peyton Krasner
Groomsman
I mean what possible words can I use to describe this guy. Those that know him, know him, and those who don't will never forget meeting him. Peyton is one of the most beautifully unique people that I've ever met. I met him and his twin, who isn't his twin when he was 12, and back then he was an energetic and annoying kid that always wore a fedora, but you couldn't help but like him. From the jump, he's always been so charismatic and enjoyable to be around. The hardest times I've ever laughed in my life could be attributed to him. He's a young guy with an incredible story of how he got to where is he is today, and I couldn't be more grateful for him and that he's with us and celebrating our beautiful day. -Marcos
Emily Reiswig
Bridesmaid
When I met Emily, I knew I was meeting my tiny best friend. We shared a room together for years, and in those years and for many years after that, we played everything together from mommies and babies, mermaids, ice cream shop owners, we would recreate episodes of Hannah Montana, and plenty more, and I am embarrassed to say that went on for far longer than it should have. We even would convince Sara, our older sister, to play games with us but she was always "an injured horse" or a "captive mermaid" so she didn't have to actually get up and play with us. Into our adult years, Emily and I still have a strong relationship, but now we play video games together, or board games, so we never really lost the playing aspect of our friendship. Emily is so caring, loyal, funny, and she makes a bigger impact on me than she knows. I am so grateful to have her as a sister and also a best friend. -Bailey
Nicholas Lord
Groomsman
LORDY! I met Nick at a call of duty tournament over 10 years ago and we've been best friends ever since. Endless nights we used to stay up and play games for hours on end. We went to different schools, lived in different places and had different interests and it's insane to think we would've never met if it wasn't for video games and church. I've always looked at Nick like a brother and I love that we share a lot of the same characteristics. I am a little older than he is but I've always felt like we grew up together side by side. If you've eaten at the In n Out in Santa Maria he probably cooked your burger! This guy is the sweetest and most caring guys you'll ever meet and he's also a new father to a beautiful baby girl named Stella. He's an incredible father and older brother to his siblings, Nathan and Jenna. -Marcos
Ciara Renaud
Bridesmaid
You will find this girl absolutely shredding the dance floor! This girl is the life of the party, she is always ready to have a good time, always down for anything. I can ask her to go with me to the grocery store and we make it the most fun experience you could ever have. When we are together you will see us singing, dancing to the beat of our own music, cackle laughing, and probably performing one of our many choreographed dances we've created over the years. Our friendship has for sure been a rollercoaster because I have quite literally met my match with this girl, but I absolutely could not imagine my life without this girl by my side. Ciara truly is so fun, kind, giving, helpful, loving, funny (easily one of the funniest people I know), and she truly is my ride or die. -Bailey
Nathan Lord
Groomsman
My little brother that I always wanted! Similar to his brother Nick, I met this guy at the same tournament. He was in grade school and he was the coolest kid I'd ever seen. I remember him walking around with a video camera, not an iPhone but an actual video camera recording us as we played that day. We had a huge age gap and it made no sense of how good of friends we were but I'm glad things went as they went. He definitely didn't need any more siblings but I couldn't help but want to be there with him as he grew up into such a kind and sweet soul with one of the most contagious laughs I've heard. He also makes a killer burger, it must run in the family or something. The man he is today fills me with pride and joy and I know he will get whatever he wants out of life. -Marcos
Gabryelle Perry
Bridesmaid
I have been friends with Gabby for about 7 years now. We met at Olive Garden and we quickly became extremely close. We both became friends in really hard times of our lives and I seriously value this friendship so much because of it. She truly helped me overcome some major hurdles in my life. In my lowest times, she pushed me to spontaneously take a trip, explore Seattle, and make beauty out of a hard time. I feel that that truly embodies who Gabryelle is as a person, she is someone who can make beauty out of chaos. Gabby makes the best out of every situation, always down to giggle and dance the night away, and truly is just the most loyal and encouraging friend I've ever had! -Bailey
Monique Almada
Groomswoman
I met Moe in High school in a Spanish class, her name was so easy to remember that I always picked her when we would do popcorn reading. From that, created a 10 year long friendship. We always joked that every time one of us was going through a break up, so was the other, every single time. We have been through so much together, she was there through the roughest years. Moe was and still is the first person I call with any news good or bad, she is always there to listen, and to gossip for sure. Moe and I's friendship is so genuine, I can easily say I have the most inside jokes with this girl than anyone else in my life. From long drives in the middle of the night blaring music, to sitting in my room with absolutely nothing to talk about because the second anything happens to us we already told each other. This girl is one of my best friends and quickly became one of Marc's as well. -Bailey
Corrin Ramos
Bridesmaid
When meeting Marc's family, I was truly overjoyed with how welcoming and loving they all are, but especially Corrin. Before I even met Corrin, she gave Marc a gift for me with some leggings and I actually will never forget that. From day 1, she was so kind to me. Johnny, her, Marc, and I would just spend hours at the dinner table talking until Corrin got tired, but we truly pushed her bedtime so far so many nights. We would play board games, play games on the switch, have movie nights, gogi trips, Disney trips, and just spend true family quality time together. I don't remember a time where I didn't refer to Corrin as one of my best friends or my sister-in-law, I am pretty sure we both just filled those roles for each other right off the bat. I am so grateful for her and our friendship and I am so grateful to have her by my side. -Bailey
Andrew Stich
Groomsman
Andrew is technically my step brother, but I have never really referred to him as that because he truly feels like he's been my brother my entire life. From picking on me, beating me up, endless house pranks between all of the siblings, shooting me the night before my 15th birthday in the chest with a BB gun, dressing him up like he's my doll with makeup and nail polish and coincidentally not having nail polish remover, I would say we have had our fair share of normal sibling torture! This guy has absolutely gotten under my skin just like any brother would, but I truly love this guy with all my heart. He has always made me feel loved and I know I'm his favorite! This guy is one of the funniest people you'll meet, very kind, and if you need him he will be there in a heart beat. You will definitely find him at the bar, or partying on the dance floor because he truly is the life of the party! -Bailey
Mecaela Salinas
Bridesmaid
My forever concert buddy, and my older sister that I never had! My cousin Micki could light up the darkest room you could imagine. She's the life of the party and truly one of the most genuine and down to earth people I've ever known. I do not know where I'd be without her guidance and her ability to keep it real and honest with me. It's been a pleasure to see Micki grow and evolve into an educator of children and one of the strongest woman figures in my life. She takes such pride in her work and even being a source of guidance for Bailey and her path she's taken in working with children. Micki is the type of person that you want in your corner fighting for you, she'd be your number one supporter, and that's one of the qualities you rarely run into. -Marcos When I first started dating Marcos, we were out at dinner with our friends at Olive Garden. His family just happened to all be there celebrating something in the back of the restaurant, so of course we wanted to go say hi and introduce me. I remember being so incredibly nervous to meet a huge chunk of his family all at once, but Micki made me laugh and feel so comfortable, and that is exactly who Micki is. We always joke that Marc is marrying Micki because we are very similar in a lot of aspects and I take that as such a compliment. Micki rides hard for the people she loves and I am so lucky to witness such a selfless love and such a strong family dynamic and I am so grateful to have Micki in my life! -Bailey
John Belden
Groomsman
John quickly became our brother-in-law, the father to our two favorite girls in the world, the person who makes Sara the happiest person she's ever been, and one of our best friends. You will probably catch him being one of the best girl dad's we have ever seen, or telling a dad joke that will either make you die laughing or you will just laugh because of how funny he thinks it is. John is such a caring guy, he is very giving, he would quite literally give you his jacket in the pouring rain, he is always down for a good gossip session, and he never fails to make the time we all spend together feel like he really enjoys it and takes in every second. When thinking about people to put in our wedding we both had no question that this man is such a huge part in both of our lives and we want to celebrate the day with him by our side. -Bailey
Sara Seyer
Bridesmaid
I truly feel like God had a plan for us when he placed this girl in my life. Sara and I have really only been friends for about a year now, but I can truly say it already feels like I've been friends with her for a lifetime. God placed her in my life and she took me in completely, she introduced me to her church and her church community. Instantly this church, this friendship, this community filled a hole in my heart that was never getting filled because I never found footing in churches prior to this. I truly feel that the spirituality and the religious base of our friendship has made this friendship so solid and rooted. I can not thank God enough for placing this girl in my life. Sara truly is kind, genuine, down-to-earth, funny, adventurous, and she is always helping me strive to be my best self. -Bailey
