Garrett & Aubrey
Wedding Party
Christine Deegan
Matron of Honor
My sister. She means the world to me. Almost like a second mom to me, growing up and still now, she is one of my biggest role models. My biggest dream is to be a mother, and I know watching my sister demonstrate motherhood in a beautiful way has definitely influenced that dream. She gave me my 4 beautiful niece and nephews, and I love them with all my heart.
Josh Gilbert
Best Man
Affectionately known as Jauqueson* to my friends and I, he is everything you’d want in a friend and more. This guy has cared about me and the little things in my life, he cooks, he is consistent, he is agile like a cat, he is a voice of reason, and so much more. Thank you Josh for being such a valuable part of my life, you are my best man for a reason. Fun Fact: He has punched me in the face twice.
Lexi Wong
Maid of Honor
Lexi and I met in the fall of 2017, and instantly we were best friends. We did internship together, lived together, and really started dating the loves of our lives together. She’s been my right hand girl, and I know that no matter the situation, she’s there.
Tanner Ming
Groomsman
Tough to describe our friendship because it’s just built different. We have always been cousins, but in 2012 he became the best friend I have ever had. You see, I risked my body by diving face first into a bush within the first 10 minutes of moving to California because he asked me too. That random and dumb act showed him I would do anything for him. He returned the favor time and time again for years. He has been the definition of a loyal friend in my life, and I am honored to have him standing beside me on my big day. Fun Fact: He puts lotion in his hair and sleeps to techno music
Tatum LaVoise
Bridesmaid
We met during a volleyball summer camp, entering our freshman year of high school. I can’t remember the details of how exactly, but I’m sure Tatum could tell you because this friend of mine has the most impeccable memory. She makes me laugh harder than most, and has the best taste in music, so obviously #bestfriend. But what I can tell you is that Tatum has a heart of gold, and if there’s anyone who just gets me, it’s her. She has been through it all with me and has always offered a voice of reason, safe place, and a source of comedic relief.
Anthony Kucich
Groomsman
Anthony is the ultimate wildcard. You never really know what you will get at any given time and I need that type of spice in my life. He might be the person I get most excited to see when I know he will be around. He is opinionated, funny, and always honest. Fun Fact: Friendships can temporarily end because of movies.
Lindsey Yamasaki
Bridesmaid
Lindsey is my oldest of friendships, meeting sometime around 1st grade. Hands down, my bestest friend for years and years- and for consecutive years, had spent almost every day together. We’ve grown up with each other by our side both close and near. She’s been a rock, and yet a safe place to fall on. She’s been with me for every milestone in my life since 6 years old, and I want her there for every one to come.
Andre Palare
Groomsman
In the first semester of my sophomore year, Andre was my least favorite person. In the second semester of my sophomore year, Andre was one of my best friends. Thank you chemistry class for helping turn that story around. Andre has a special gift for just being everything you’d want in a friend. He and I have had so many good laughs together and have continually found ourselves doing weird things like being shirtless for 5 days straight or screaming at people while driving by them. He’s got massive potential in life and I am excited that we are even such good friends cause we do not have anything in common. Fun Fact: He is the only friend of mine I have lived with.
Bekah Uhl
Bridesmaid
My newest addition to my tribe, but this friendship was completely God appointed. We did go to the same high school, but didn’t really reconnect until the beginning of 2020. It’s been great ever since, being one of the friendships to carry me through the transition of and navigating long distance dating Garrett.
Justin Rodriguez
Groomsman
Superbly loved by his friends, family, and wife Katie, this witty employee of Apple has been a great friend to me. While there is a consistent sheen of mystery around him, he’s got a big heart and I know I could always rely on him to make me laugh or to give me a thoughtful and honest opinion. Thank you Justin for always being yourself cause that guy is a guy I would gladly have in my life forever. Fun Fact: He is my favorite person to compete with in games of strategy as well as to talk movies with.
Justice Ming
Bridesmaid
This girl is going to be my sister in law and I’m so stoked. She’s worn a few different hats throughout our relationship being a mentor, counselor, friend, and now sister. I am so lucky to inherit this girl as a sister. She is one of the best listeners, affirmers, encouragers, and friends. If you don’t have a justice, go get one!
Andrew Hughes
Groomsman
A peculiar friendship unlike the rest of the groomsman here. It all started with me as his boss in the church cafe. He adored my leadership and knew he needed to become my friend. We never fail to enjoy each other’s company, constantly ragging on one another and talking about one of our many shared interests. He is rough around the edges, not many people at the wedding will know him, but he truly is one of my best friends. Fun Fact: He asked me to officiate his wedding, then switched me to his best man because he is indecisive.
Spencer Ming
Officiant
Garrett’s older brother. Always been looked up to and respected by Garrett, but the last several years he has been the most influential mentor in both of our lives individually and as a couple. We couldn’t be more thrilled to have him marry us.
