Isabella or what I grew up calling her "Lala"... she and I, have always shared pieces of our childhood together. Actually a lot of my earliest memories consist of her and I. From playing dolls together, pulling each other's hair (lol), having sleepovers, and playing just dance. To coming out in each other's Quince's, and going to her proms together, to now. She and I have and will always be in each other's corners rooting for one another on. That is something that will never change. She is truly the little sister, I never had. We have done and gone through so many things together, that it only makes sense to experience this, her wedding, together too. I am so proud and excited to be apart of her special day, as her Maid of honor, but more importantly as her big cousin! Here is to counting down the days to getting my little cousin down the aisle, and making her a Mrs!! I love you forever, Lala! ❤️

"I can't tell you exactly what day Isabella and I met, but what I can tell you is she has been by my side for as long as I can remember. Since our home room class in the 5th grade, we have been sharing inside jokes, text message, and of course Boba tea. When we were in Track together, during practice we loved taking our slow runs, extra slow, so we could talk the entire time...we still do!! Everyone knew not to mess with me because Izzy would be right behind me, ready to fight! We have gotten to learn and grow together, and lean on one another in every season of life. In different schools, jobs, and even states, our friendship never falters, and it means so much to me! The privilege of growing up with such a strong and supportive friend has been an incredible blessing! I am so excited to see her through this new journey of hers! ❤️"

"The first time Javi & I met (yea, no one calls him Javier, unless he's in trouble or signing official documents) was back in 2016, in Middle School. I was a wise & experienced 8th grader, practically a scholar. While Javi was a 7th grader, still figuring out how to tie his cleats properly, let alone his life. We both played on the school soccer team; he was a striker, and I played on the wings, meaning I basically spent most of my time setting him up for goals he ALMOST scored. I guess you can say, I've been assisting him since day one - making it painfully obvious why I'm his Best Man. After 2016, we went our separate ways...I was on to bigger and better things (like High school, and pretending to know what I was doing). We still saw each other occasionally until we switched schools... Fast forward to 2022, we had our dramatic Rom-com reunion. Where you ask? At the gym of course...One solid bro handshake, and a slow motion head nod, and the spark was reignited, we have been best friends ever since. Now here I am still setting him up, but this time for the best shot of his life...Marriage!!"

"Javi & I met way back in Middle School, where we knew of each others existence, but never really talked. Little did we know that would change, as time passed by we would meet again, but in a whole different environment - the Gym. That specific day, I had walked up to Andy (the best man), to say hi, and Javi was there too. They both invited me to workout with them, and after that day, it just became a daily thing for us. Our friendship grew stronger, and now we have what feels like a brotherhood, I can talk to them about anything! I have had many adventures, and conversations with Javi, that I will never forget, and I am thankful for all he has done for me. I'm so proud of the person Javi has become, and excited for this next part of his journey."
