Kristen Argerake - Maid of Honor
Some of you may know Kristen.... as the best big sissy ever!! Growing up, Gina was always looking up to Kristen. Whether it was her style, music taste, arts, or manga comic books, Kristen had a huge impact on Gina. Gina and Kristen have grown much closer as they've gotten older. And even though their tastes are a LITTTTLE bit different now, she will always be the best big sister I could have ever asked for.
Kelly Pioterek - Bridesmaid
Kelly and Gina met working at El Torito long long ago! Through the course of many work traumas, Kelly and Gina became close friends, and now, they're best friends! Through the best and worst times, they've always been there for each other. And always will be. Love you bestie! To many more adventures and fun times together!
Heidi Heron - Bridesmaid
Heidi and Gina also met at work, but at House of Blues! Heidi was more than accepting when Gina first started at an interesting time with the company. They quickly bonded through being strong female leaders for their teams. Their fun, outgoing personalities are quite the match, and thus ensued lots of fun times!
Veronica Spire - Bridesmaid
Veronica is Carlos's oldest sister. Gina has been overwhelmed with how she was welcomed to the Flores family, and Veronica (and all his sisters!) played a huge role in this. She has been kind, caring, and a ton of fun. Gina is more than honored to have Carlos's sister join her wedding party!
Raul Flores - Best Man
Raul is Carlos's oldest bother (but not by much!). Raul and Hector are both twins, with Raul being born just minutes before.
Raul has been a major part of shaping the man Carlos is today, with the biggest being his taste in music! They've been going to shows and mosh pits for years, and many more to come. He's been the constant role model in his life for so many things, and shown him what hard work can bring. He truly is the definition of a best man. Carlos is honored to have Raul standing next to him.
Hector Flores - Groomsman
Hector is Carlos's older brother too (and Raul's twin!). Throughout his life he has been supportive and loving, showing him how to never give up. Both Raul and Hector taught Carlos the meaning of patience as a kid by doing their duties as older bothers (love you guys!). Hector has accomplished so much, both in the Army and in life by never compromising his beliefs. This has inspired Carlos to pursue what makes him happy and also be the best version of himself. For this reason he is also grateful to have Hector stand with him as a groomsman.
David Acosta - Groomsman
David is Carlos's oldest nephew (aka little brother). Although they are 10 years apart, they grew up closely together. David has always had a positive attitude that is absolutely infectious. He's kind, caring, and always fun to be around. Even though he's his "little bother," David taught Carlos not to care what people think, as long as he is doing what makes him happy. Carlos is grateful to have David's energy by his side on this special day.
Ivan Vazquez - Groomsman
Carlos met Ivan while working at House of Blues. Ivan quickly became a great friend with sharing the same sense of humor and life views. Ivan has had Carlos's back through tough shows and various altercations at work. This showed Carlos that Ivan was someone he could count on and trust both in and out of work. Through the curve balls that life threw at them, they always leaned on each other to get through it. He is thankful to have someone as loyal as Ivan in his wedding party.
