Ariadna Espin

Maid of Honor

We met at Wake Tech at our English as a Second Language class in summer 2012. I was very chatty and outspoken in class, and Ariadna was not so sure about me because of that. But, "I made the cut" and we have been best friends ever since. Our dates consist of long talks, listening to classic music, and eating gourmet food. We are a perfect match!

Claudia Vanega

Bridesmaid

Loved her since I found out I was going to have a little sister. She is a strong, independent and loving young lady. Also, the best swimmer I know!

Evelyn Dobbins

Bridesmaid

Destiny dropped me in her neighborhood when I moved to Cary in 2011. I always knew of her, however we did not hang out until I was 21 (when I could go to the cool places.) Evelyn has won the whole family over and now she has an open invite to all the future family vacations and events!

Paula Sy

Bridesmaid

Paula asked me "What's your sign" when we first met at our English as a Second Language class. Me: "Aquarius." Paula: "Aquarius is Pisces' best friend." And, here we are, friends for more than a decade!

Megan Sloss

Bridesmaid

Our friendship grew stronger during deployment, where we spent infinite hours by the beach getting tan (like we ain't already cinnamon girls) and in the kitchen. Megan and I share a passion for the kitchen. She is an amazing cook and I am really good at eating!

Brittany Pittman

Bridesmaid

Pittman was the first friend I made in the Army after graduating from Basic Training in 2017. I remember my platoon sergeant coming to me and saying that we were going to be besties. I guess he saw the sparks (haha). One matching tattoo and a deployment later, here we are...

Adriana Rojas

Bridesmaid

After a few times chatting with to each while at Wake Tech, we became study buddies and later our friendship grew. We have spent endless evening grilling out, laying out and listening to music by the pool. What I love the most is our Karaoke nights where we sing at the top of our lungs to Rocio Durcal songs.

Michelle Rogers

Bridesmaid

We helped each other through Basic Training and we promised each other that we will never lose our connection. We have been pen pals since June 2017 (yes! paper and pens). She sends me postcards from all her adventures. I love it, and I love her!
