Elise & Uziel
Wedding Party
Leah Kopp
Maid of Honor
I don't know what I would do without Leak Kopp. She is my best friend, sister in Christ, and my soul sister! She has been by my side through the best of times and the worst of times and I could not image it any other way. A little bit about us....We just so happen to always be wearing matching clothes when we go out. I cherish our daily voice memos, shopping adventures, going to church together, our Thursday morning walks, dinner dates, and nights out on the town! She is beautiful, funny, incredibly talented with graphic design, and she is one of the most caring people I know.
Joey Jaurez
Best Man
Joey and I met back in 2016 at Mission Church, and they quickly became the best of friends. From community groups to Magic the Gathering and Dungeons and Dragons sessions, we connected in so many ways! Joey is like a brother to me, and he has been there for me and with me through so many highs and lows in the time that we've known each other. I don’t know what I would do or where I would be without him. Joey, love you dude! You’re the man!
Whitney Tice
Bridesmaid
I have known Whitney for almost my whole life. I remember when we used to see each other at the father daughter dances our church put together. We had so much fun dancing the night away! Our childhood consisted of a lot of Gilmore Girls and baking! We both share a passion for health and fitness and I am so glad that I get to share in these things with her. I look forward to my weekly walks with Whit where we talk about our victories, struggles, food, Jesus, and fitness! She is one of the most faith filled women I know and I am so blessed to have her as a friend.
Taylor Florea
Groomsman
Taylor and I met at Mission Church in 2016, and became good friends after a quick discussion about the Navy, guns, and food, which usually occurred around the "occasional" trip to VenTiki. He's always been level-headed and a great voice of reason, especially when it comes to providing a Godly perspective to things. I’ve continued to look up to him, and how he has handled life and his own relationships. Did I mention were both HUGE on finding new for spots!?!? We'll definitely be reminiscing about life sometime in the future over some Mai Tai's… or a Jet Pilot or two!
Megan Garrety
Bridesmaid
Megan and I have known each other for many years! When we were younger we played on multiple soccer teams together. She used to come over to my house everyday after school. Some of my fondest memories with Megan are going on hikes in Ojai, riding in her mom's mini cooper, and going to lunch at our favorite sushi spot called Koba sushi! We can go weeks or even months not seeing each other and then meet up and it feels like nothing has changed. We pick up right where we left off. I love this about us.
Agustin Sanchez
Groomsman
WOOOOAAAHHH... Agustin and I met back in 2016 at Mission Church, and I could tell that we were going to be awesome friends. He's always been a great friend and an awesome example for a man living for God! We’ve been there for each other through the ups and the downs, and he’s always had some unexpected wisdom bombs to drop into my lap, even if they were hard to hear. Dude has the BEST one line zingers ever, even if I was on the receiving end of some of them! So proud and happy that he’ll be getting married soon to his awesome fiancé, Anna!
Emmaline Fronczak
Bridesmaid
Emmaline and I met while I was going to school in Santa Cruz. I remember the night we met like it was yesterday. We instantly clicked and did almost everything together with our gal pal, Jordan Arp. My fondest memories in Santa Cruz involve Emmaline and Jordan. Emmaline is one of the funniest gals I know. When I transferred to Davis we always made an effort to see each other! She came to visit me multiple times in Davis, we would meet up in San Fransisco, and I always cherished going back to Santa Cruz to see her. One of my fondest memories is surprising her in Santa Cruz for her birthday!
Stephen Corona
Groomsman
Stephen and I met at Mission College Age back in 2016 when I first got stationed back home. After my second deployment, our good friend Bobby linked us up and we became roommates! Somehow, we didn't drive each other crazy, since I'm a massive extrovert and he is fairly introverted. We've had some awesome (and weird) moments as friends, and I've always been able to rely on him as a listening ear and an honest perspective, even if it's not exactly what I wanted to hear. We’ve had TONS of late night talks where we just completely lost track of time and I’m thankful for every single one! Dude is as loyal as it gets and I'm blessed to have a bro like him in my life!
Camina Frank
Bridesmaid
I met Camina at Whitney's birthday party just this year! We instantly clicked and It was crazy because I felt like I had known her for years! We have the same humor and laugh constantly when we are together. She has a heart of gold and loves Jesus with her whole heart! We are both getting married this year and I am so blessed to be walking through this chapter of my life with her by my side! I love our coffee dates, church squad, wedding planning days, and late night phone calls!
Derik Lindberg
Groomsman
Derik and I met through Taylor, and we kicked it off right away. We both love helping others and he is always trying to host awesome group hangouts. We’ve had tons of deep conversations about life and faith, that usually always start over whiskey and cigars. Musician, car enthusiast, and whiskey connoisseur, D is always bringing the fun to the party and knows how to have a great time!
Jordan Arp
Bridesmaid
I met Jordan Arp at Santa Cruz. We lived in the same dorm together called Merrill college. We have so many funny stories from living there! Jordan is one of the sweetest, wittiest, and down to earth gals I know. She has the kindest heart so when she told me years back that she wanted to be a teacher I knew that career choice was a perfect fit for her. We used to always go to the dining commons together, go to the beach, thrift store shop, and explore Santa Cruz. One of my fondest memories is when Jordan and Emmaline came to visit me in Davis.
Chris Meugniot
Groomsman
Chris and I met in 2016 when he joined the community group that Stephen and I started. He's a professional photographer and outdoor adventure junkie, and man is he loyal to the core. Creative is a complete understatement for this guy! I love that we can go from completely gut busting laughing to a deep and vulnerable conversation. He's a great friend, and we've connected through a lot of beach Spike-ball and a handful of sunrise hikes, which were some of my fondest memories together!
Rachel Dawson
Bridesmaid
Rachel has been a friend of mine since middle school! One of my fondest memories with Rachel is going to Hawaii with her and her family and getting Mud Pies at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co.! We have so many memories together from middle school, high school, and college. I was in her wedding a few years ago and I am so excited to have her be a part of mine now!
Chase Tenen
Groomsman
Chase and I met through my men’s community group about 2 years ago, and we completely deep dived into each other’s personal life like we had been brothers for years! A super genuine dude chasing Jesus with all his heart. You want someone that can light up a room with an outgoing personality and huge smile? He’s your guy! Thanks for always being such a huge blessing, listening ear, and incredible friend, bro!
Summer Watts
Sister of the Bride
Summer is a part of the triplet clan! Summer and I were blessed to be able to go to college together at UC Davis. When I moved to Davis I was so happy that I got to share my college experience with my sister. We made so many memories together like riding our bikes to and from campus, going line dancing, doing Crossfit at 6 am, and going downtown to get poke or custard at Sweet and Savory. One of my best memories with Summer is when we went line dancing because everyone got to see how gifted she is at dancing. (On the other hand anyone who knows me knows that I don't like dancing...lol) She is an outstanding dancer. Summer is one of the most caring, kindest, and sweetest gals I know. I love you Summer and I am so excited to both be married and share in these seasons of life together!
Paris Dosch
Sister of the Bride
Paris is also a part of the triplet clan. Paris and I share a love for fashion, sweets, DIY projects like pampas grass harvesting, thrift store shopping, and sports. Paris is a gifted volleyball player and teacher. I remember when Paris and I used to teach the kindergarten kids at our church, Reality Carpinteria. Paris comes alive with the little ones .She is such a blessing to all of them. At the beginning of the pandemic Paris and I used to drive up to Santa Barbara weekly for Hook and Press Donuts! Some of my fondest memories with Paris include all of our thrift store shopping adventures here in Ventura and in Portland, Oregon. I love you Paris and I am so proud of all that you are doing in Westlake to pursue your dreams of being a school teacher! Those kids have the best teacher ever!
