Jess and Chrissy first met on the 7th grade volleyball team (where Chrissy did NOT like her); however, Chrissy came around their junior year of high school, and the two have been close ever since.

Sydney joined the family in 2022 after she married Jess' older brother. Since then, she has become the older sister that Jess never had.

Loren Smith - Bridesmaid
Doctor Doctor (you read that right!) Loren Esquire and Jess first met in 2019 when Jess joined Cru. Later, they bonded over their bizarre sense of humor, late nights cooking, and Studio Ghibli movies.
Miguel Astorga - The bestest of mans
He goes by "Miguelito", or by "Luiz's brother". I met him right out of the womb in o-3. For a while he disliked me; he dislikes me less now.
Brian Honea - Groomsman
I met this monster athlete in 2018 when both of us were trying out for UTD's ultimate frisbee team (WOOF). He claims to run a 4.40s 40-meter dash, but it's not true (nor has he dunked before). However, we bond over one-upping each other.
Aidan - Groosman
I met this genius late in college through a ministry called Cru. For funzies, we would go out weekly and try a new restaurant. One of our top pics is Sky Rocket Burger in Richardson 👌🏽Now-adays he keeps Liberty Mutual in business through his actuary work.
Zac Aikman - Groomsman
This dude LOVES Jesus ya'll 👏🏽 and it so happens that he is my fiancé's older brother. We're both big fans of flying plastic discs, but his go farther than my. We're also big fans of "short cold calls" with friends, and of course we share a few of those sometimes too.
David Martinez - Groomsman
We all love him, even though 'Hook 'Em!' is his favorite phrase and burnt orange is his go-to color. I met him in our high school XC team, and we bonded over countless cool adventures in the wonderfully weird city of Austin, TX
Chris Gomez - Groomsman
I met this dude in middle school. We were emo-buddies. Eventually, we both grew out of that phase...and graduated to depressed-XC-buddies in high school. Through college we bonded through jogs in nature and volleyball
