Wedding Party
Joseph Limon
Best Man
I’m truly blessed to have a big brother. I always trusted and looked up to Big Tony. Anthony and I have had some great times growing up together and rough-housing one another. That’s what big brothers are for. To tease you and toughen you up. But at the same time, to love and support you. We have had many wonderful adventures together. From participating in soccer, baseball, water polo, and competitive swimming to hanging out with friends and becoming lifeguards together. Driving to morning practice together while blasting 80s hits was always a good time. I remember the summer before I started my professional career I would go bike down to the beach and sit by Anthony’s tower to watch him work and rescue people, like he was Mitch Buchannon. An absolute stud and a hero. So of course I wanted to be like my big brother haha. God has truly blessed me with an amazing older brother. I’m excited to stand by his side as he begins the next chapter of his life with Victoria, God Bless!

One of my fondest memories is the joy of listening to Irish music and embarking on long road trips to Arizona with Anthony. These car rides were always filled with laughter, cherished memories, and the excitement of enjoying meals with our aunts and nana. Another great memory is visiting Knott's Berry Farm with my cousin, where we rode all the rides and indulged in an abundance of delicious food.

Tony! Glad to have another brother! I met you back at OLHC and have great memories of the house parties we used to go to. Also, the good times at Chapman (Tipsy Tony)! Congratulations to you and my sister Victoria, God Bless both of you.

My best bud Anthony and I go way back to the 3rd grade. So many good times together brother and many more to come! I can't wait to stand by your side on the big day! Some of my favorite memories with you are when we’d go to Sheep Hills over by your old house and get into all kinds of trouble 😂 or when we’d go to Knotts Scary Farm hahaha those were the days man. We've come a long way bro and we're both getting married to the women of our dreams. I'm excited to see your bright future with Victoria, much love always brother.

I first met Anthony on a rainy afternoon at the library. We both reached for the last copy of an anatomy book, our hands touching as we laughed about our shared interests. Little did I know, that chance encounter would blossom into a deep friendship filled with late-night debates and unforgettable adventures..... Not bad for Chat GTP. Anthony and I have been inseparable since our high school days at Edison. Our friendship began on the swim team, where we bonded over shared laps and inside jokes. Over the years, we've embarked on countless adventures together, from exhilarating trips to the Superstition Mountains in Arizona to spontaneous nights out. Of course, there was that one unforgettable incident when Anthony accidentally left me stranded at a bar in Mexico—a mishap that still makes us laugh whenever it comes up in conversation. I love you brother and am stoked for you and Victoria. God Bless both of you!

The first time I met Anthony was the first day of our PA school. I was super nervous for my first day and had all my first-day jitters. Then I saw Anthony, and he saw me 😊. We stood by the chapel and we made vows to be best friends and life partners (as told by our teachers) through this time in PA school. These last two years have been spent making incredible, lasting memories. From late-night study sessions, to Sunday dinners at Más, to eating spaghetti on top of Mount Baldi, to standing next to him on his wedding day. Anthony is one of the kindest, genuine and loyal men I know and I’m honored to be able to be part of his story. Cheers to you and Victoria. I love you both very much.

Anthony and Mark met when Anthony's cousin Gabriela married Mark's brother John-Paul (okay I'm done talking in the 3rd person). Which makes Anthony and Mark .... cousins-in-law? Not quite, but hey I consider you my cousin man. We have an unbreakable bond, almost as strong as the bond of real cousins. We have grown up together and definitely became fast friends through various shared misadventures, and our devotion to our faith, the beach, and CLASSIC ROCK!!!! 🤟🎸 Congratulations to you and Victoria, love you both sm.

About 8 years ago, this pretty boy quickly became one of my best friends. We had lots of good times hanging out at the bars or at his swim meets. He was my wingman that helped me start dating my now wife, Sarah. He was the best man at my wedding and now I am honored to be at his wedding. From drifting on the back of the Mount Hill, to getting pretty sauced at my bachelor party on the river, you could say we got pretty close. Tony is a great friend, has a big heart, and loves to have fun. Our friendship has been a great one and I will always be there for you bro. Cheers to Tony and Victoria and God Bless!!!

I know Anthony very well and he is truly a one-of-a-kind guy. You have an amazing girl man and I'm stoked for both of you to receive the Holy Sacrament of marriage. God Bless Anthony and Victoria. Excited to stand by your side on the big day brother!

I’m Victoria’s (other) little sister and (other) maid of honor. I’m so blessed that God gave me a built-in best friend and someone that I can look up to. I’ve loved watching your love grow and I can’t wait to celebrate with you both. Love you Anthony and Vicky!

Victoria and Anthony, congratulations to both of you! I am so glad to gain another brother who will take good care of my big sis! All the love and blessings to both of you and may Christ always guide and keep you close to His Sacred Heart. I can't wait to dance to some good Michael Jackson jams at the wedding!

I met Victoria when I was little at mass one day. I had always thought she was so beautiful and secretly hoped she would end up with my brother. Fast forward years later and she is! Since getting closer to Victoria I see how sweet and thoughtful she truly is and am so happy that she is marrying my big brother Anthony. Callen is blessed to have them as his Godparents and I am so excited for them to start a family of their own.

Victoria is my cousin, best friend, and all-around amazing human. She’s also the most adventurous person on the planet, recently traveling to Egypt for her deep-sea diving trip. Growing up, we shared plenty of sleepovers filled with late-night karaoke/dance sessions, dinner dates, and movie marathons (with many more to come!). She has an infectious laugh and can always crack us up with silly jokes. Love you both so much and congratulations!

To know a friendship with Victoria, is to grow up side by side, hand in hand, and experience the definition of girlhood together. From first grade to first crushes, first sleepovers to first heartbreaks, first “I’m going to marry him” to first 1/2 marathons together. We have truly grown up together and I couldn’t be more grateful to know we will grow old together. I am so grateful for our many adventures, our life talks, our training sessions, paddle board rides, hikes, ocean dips, our wild spirits, deep prayers, nights out dancing, and now to be by your side as you marry your love, is truly an honor. Anthony, Victoria will be your best adventure yet!! I love you both!

Victoria, you beautiful human being! Hmmm, some of my best memories usually involved Matthew torturing us at Grandma Shirley’s pool while we were making up dance routines in the water. Another incredible moment was on our girls’ trip to the Grand Canyon where we talked about life, faith, and how we couldn’t wait someday to take our own babies on adventures like that. I am sooo excited to stand by you on your big day! Love ya!

My dearest bestie makes life FUN! Ooo boy the amount of adventures, inside jokes, and laughs we share!! We've known each other since itty bitty little girls and our friendship blossomed into something I can't live without! I have so many fond memories of going to each other's houses, making silly videos, having laugh attacks in the middle of class, watching scary and romcom movies in the same day, taking on new baking challenges, and dancing without a care in the world. She is the Dale to my Chip and I love her so much! This bride is beautiful inside and out, she is always ready to have a good time, and she'll be there for you through and through.

Vickie and I have been friends for about 15 years now. It is so special to me to have created a lifelong friendship with her! Our relationship started out as silly junior high girls making dance videos, prank calling and staying up way too late at sleepovers. We then went through high school together and had some great memories! Whether it be wine tasting in Temecula, celebrating in Vegas, singing our favorite 80s songs at Gaslamp, trying to convince an Uber driver to take us to the nearest Ben and Jerry’s after a night of karaoke(you had to be there 😆), or just having a nice relaxing girls night in, our young adult years have always been a good time full of fun and laughter. Something I love about Vickie is she is always down to have fun and will never turn down a margarita or a moment to dance! She is also a great listener and supporter. I had the pleasure of having her by my side on my wedding day and I can’t wait to support her in marrying the man of her dreams! It has been so sweet to watch their relationship bloom over the years. The genuine love and happiness that Anthony brings out in Vickie always brings a big smile to my face. I am so excited for her future as Mrs. Limon!

Vicki and I met at church but became close when we started attending High School together! Some of my favorite things about her are she lights up a room with her presence and smile and she is always down for a good time and a good laugh! She has been there for me through so many big life events from high school, college, trips and vacations, young adulthood, my own wedding, and even me becoming a mom! She has been a friend and confidant through it all and it’s an honor for me to return the favor and stand by her side during this next big chapter in her life, her wedding and marriage to Anthony! I love you Vicki and Anthony and I'm so excited for the big day!
