Wedding Party
Mallory Home
Maid of Honor
Hi! My name is Mallory, and I’m very lucky to be Zina’s maid of honor. Zina and I met in May of 2017 and have been best friends ever since. We worked really closely together and bonded very quickly. A little about me: I’m 20 years old and I grew up in Western WA. I lived in Spokane for about a year and a half before moving back home. My hobbies include painting and playing computer games! I’m super lucky to be a part of Zina and Sam’s love story. I’m really looking forward to meeting all the friends and family - look for the girl who looks like she could be the brides sister! 😉
Adam Pegg
Best Man
While not a fan of arranged marriages I must say Sara and my mom did create a stroke of genius here. Zina and Sam have persevered in their relationship where most fail. It takes a special level of devotion to remain connected through distance, changing personalities, and widening experience. Zina has become almost as familiar to me as my own brother. The strength of their bond is something many of the closest couples don't have. They know what kind of adolescents they were and how they got there, have unfettered possession of each others hearts, have a past that doesn't diminish their relationship, and can look back on their formative years and appreciate their current counterpart for walking their paths together. I think that is well earned and very special 🙂 congrats guys
Jacqi Robirts
Bridesmaid
Hi! I’m Jacqueline Robirts. I am currently a student at Eastern Washington University studying to become an Elementary School Teacher. I met Zina through our jobs at Green Gable Children’s Learning Center and we hit it off right away. She is an amazing person and I’m so excited to be a part of her wedding. I met Sam later, but my first interaction with him was actually on Facebook when he was looking for a husky puppy and I linked an ad I had seen which led to Sam and Zina getting one of the puppies and naming her Desi. These two are such a great couple. I’m so excited to see them get married and have an amazing life together!
Acer Zimmerman
Groomsman
Hi! I’m Acer, Zina’s little brother, and pretty much the reason Zina and Sam got together in the first place. I am constantly impressed with how the two continuously love each other through ups and downs. I am excited for the Pegg family and my family to become closer as they are awesome people. But what should you know about me? Well to begin, I am a sophomore at the Western Washington University with the intent to major in engineering. Wakeboarding and snowboarding are a couple of my hobbies. I am extremely excited for my sister and Sam to get married and wish them the best!
Rebecca Alberts
Bridesmaid
Hi! My name is Rebecca Alberts. I moved to Spokane to attend Gonzaga University and get my Bachelor’s degree in Special Education. While I was up here I found myself working at Temple Beth Shalom which is where I met Zina. We became fast friends at Temple and at school where we were starting members of the Jewish Bulldogs. Through all the time I spent with Zina, I ended up spending a good amount of time with Sam as well. It is clear how in love they are, and I am so excited to be apart of their wedding.
John Pegg
Groomsman
Hey guys! I’m John, I am Sam’s older brother and I also get the pleasure of being one of his groomsmen. I met Zina a couple months after they started dating in 2011 and man what a match they are for eachother. Their love has persevered time, distance, and two people growing up together and it is my honor to be able to be a part of the start of the beginning of their lives together.

Hayden Bash
Groomsman
Hi! My name is Hayden Bash. I am currently a student at Eastern Washington University studying mechanical engineering. I met Zina and Sam through my fiancé Jacqueline. I am happy to be a part of the wedding. It’s the least I can do when Zina helped be a part of my proposal to my girlfriend. Since then there have been lots of game nights and get together where we have grown closer as friends. I wish Zina and Sam all the best in their future together.
