David & Jessica
Wedding Party
Katie Bendix
Maid of Honor
Katie and Jessica met 6 years ago at a CrossFit gym. They soon became inseparable celebrating birthdays, holidays, career achievements and even moving in together for a couple years before Katie bought her fantastic house in Encinitas. No joke, Katie was even Jessica's plus one for a college friend's wedding. There isn't a big event in Jessica's life that Katie would miss, which is why she gets a front row seat to this one!
Eduardo Ceballos
Best Man
Eduardo's life changed forever when he met David in 2018 at Crossfit PB. Through thick an thin, the two have been together and they don't see that changing anytime soon. No event is complete without Eduardo in attendance!
Ally Folsom
Bridesmaid
Ally has been there for Jessica since the beginning (literally). We affectionally call her "Jessica's Little Big Sister" because while she may be little in age, she is big in personality and by personality we mean quad strength. During almost every family vacation, Ally (and Andrew, who is an honorary bridesmaid) makes Jessica laugh until she cries, which is an incredible skill. Ally is the life of the party which is exactly why she was invited to this one!
Michael Kruger
Groomsman
David and Michael have known each other literally their entire lives. Michael's son, Jayden, is also the Flower Boy, so his family is making all of the appearances on David's special day.
Jessica Mihelic
Bridesmaid
Big Jess (Folsom) and Little Jess (Mihelic) have been friends for 11 years. They were roommates by chance their first year of college, but roommates by choice for the remaining 3 years. Little Jess is an adventurer - she spent 3 years in Japan teaching English while solo traveling the globe before she came home to start her career as an artist. Now Little Jess is helping Big Jess take on the adventure of a lifetime.
Michael Lukacko
Groomsman
David and Mike first bonded over their love of bicep curls. While they disagree on the benefit of running, they agree on many other important things, like that the Bills are the best and Josh Allen is our hero. The party would not be complete without Mike!
Jillian Winkler
Bridesmaid
Jessica and Jill met each other 11 (Yes, 11!) years ago at UCSD. Through years of changes (mostly in hairstyle), they have stayed fast friends and love meeting up for a morning coffee or a boozy brunch. Jill once rode a mechanical bull and endured whiplash in order to beat the clock so one could say she is competitive. Luckily she didn't have to compete for a spot in the wedding!
Ryan Anderson
Groomsman
Ryan and David have been friends since he moved to San Diego and they met (shockingly!) at the gym. Through countless festivals, snowboarding trips, and nights out in San Diego, they have only grown closer (though if you spend a few minutes with them you may question that based on their incessant banter!).
