Sam and I have been best friends since we were 4. We met at St. Johns and spent almost every weekend together. Whether we were ding-dong-ditching our mutual crushes together, or dressed head to toe in duct tape outfits, we have always found a way to have the most fun. We were and are still additions to each other. She is truly my soul sister and I can't imagine this day without her RIGHT by my side. She is the perfect best friend and the perfect maid of honor. I am beyond blessed.
Keoni Abasial - Best Man
Keoni is my little brother and is my guy for life. We are 8 years apart, but we are constantly finding a way to laugh and have a good time. I prayed for a little brother for the longest time, and God answered those prayers with the best brother I could ask for. He is a super talented athlete, as well as the most caring and thoughtful person. Keoni - there’s no one I’d rather have standing next to me on the most important day of my life!
Abigail Kim - Bridesmaid
Abigail and I went to both high school and college together! She danced, I cheered, and we're ADPI sisters, but it wasn't until college that we discovered how amazing our friendship was. Abigail and I can talk about anything and everything for hours on end. My favorite thing about her is how supportive she is. Although she may be a dancer, when it comes to friendship, she is the best cheerleader there is. Whether it's one of my small businesses, my cheer career, or my relationship, she's right by my side through it all. Abigail is the definition of a life long friend and I am SO happy you will be by my side on June 22nd!
Austin Meloche - Groomsman
Austin has been my best friend from day 1. We were born in the same hospital, a few hours apart. We’ve done everything together (quite literally), including elementary school, high school, transferring high schools, staying home and going to SPC, walking on at our respective colleges, getting injured at the same time, and ending our sports careers at the same time. Oh and I almost forgot, we both drive white Ford Mustangs. Austin is my guy and is someone who will be there for life. I’m so excited to spend this day with him!
Annabelle John - Bridesmaid
Annabelle and I met at St. Johns and have been best friends ever since! We both went to FSU and studied abroad in Florence together. I remember when she was a crazy Spiderman kid and would bounce off the walls at all of our slumber parties. Although she may not dress like Spiderman anymore, she's still just as fun as 10 years ago. She is truly a forever friend!
Bubba Nelson - Groomsman
Bubba is my main man! Our story is pretty similar to Robert and I, as we first started out on the cheer team at FSU. We then became roommates and made so many memories traveling to games, going on our Spring Break trip, and my favorite of them all… convincing Robert to let us throw “Club 1418’s” first party (with the bouncehouse that never showed up). Bubba is family and will do anything to be there for you when you need it most. I can’t thank him enough for being apart of my wedding day!
Ava McKown - Bridesmaid
Ava is the one who immediately felt more like a sister than a friend. Our relationship goes back generations... our grandmothers are best friends, our mothers are best friends, and now we are too! She is truly like having another little sister! Although we've only actually known each other 5 years, we've made up for all of them with countless memories that are simply priceless. To mention a few... hiking the Grand Canyon together at 4 am, eating at Burger Kings in the middle of nowhere, shopping for Taylor Swift concerts, oh, and of course LIVING together! Thank you for being in my wedding, the RC, and most importantly, thank you for welcoming me into your life! Love you so so much!
Frankie Chamberlain - Groomsman
Frankie was my first roommate in college. He was actually a random roommate, but ended up becoming one of my best friends. Frankie is someone that I can always count on. He’ll sacrifice anything to be there for you because that’s just the type of person he is. It’s a pretty impressive quality, considering you’re guaranteed to find him on a plane to another state/country/island every other week. Lucky for me, I was able to lock him in to be in Tampa, FL on June 22nd!
Kiana Martin - Bridesmaid
Kiana is as loyal as they come. She is one of those friends who is there for you no matter what, and goes out of her way to support you. Half of the time, I feel like she reads my mind. When we talk on the phone, it's never just a five-minute conversation. No. If we're talking, we're talking for at least an hour. Everyone needs a friend like Kiana. I am pretty sure she is the reason I got plugged into Top Dog as much as I did. She invited me to outside of-cheer hang outs and was always so welcoming. Flash forward 10 years later, and she's one of my best friends and is in my wedding!
Oh- and she also happens to be Oki's cousin. Kiana- I can't wait to be family!
Jaque Sarnoff - Groomsman
Jaque and I first became friends in high school. Our friendship quickly grew into a brotherhood, as we did everything together. We had all of our classes together, played football together, and, eventually, cheered together. Some even called us “salt and pepper.” Jaque is one of the most loyal and supportive people you’ll ever meet. Jaque - love you brother and thank you for being a part of this day with me!
Lani Abasial - Bridesmaid
My Lani girl! Lani is Oki's sister and we always had this special bond, even before Oki and I started dating. When Lani decided to go to FSU, that made 5 of us total. Yet again, the Abasial/Martin/Mann squad was cheering together. Those were my most favorite years. She's the most fun friend, will always be down for a trip to Thomasville, and will never say no to a dessert. Lani, I can't wait to be your sister!
Kai Martin - Groomsman
Kai is my cousin and has been there from the very beginning. Before the two boys (Oni and Noa) came along, it was just us two grandsons. We would always find a way to keep ourselves busy playing with Lincoln Logs, Hot Wheels, or football in the backyard. We even got to play high school football together! Kai is a best friend that I can talk to about anything and I know he’ll have my back. I’m so excited and blessed that he is a part of this big day!
Loi Abasial - Bridesmaid
Loi is one of Oki's sisters and also one of my best friends. Since my very first year as a base, Loi has been my flyer. Between Top Dog Rain and FSU cheer, we've probably traveled half of the country together. No matter the day, Loi will be there for you and is always down for an adventure. We have always been "ohana" thanks to Top Dog, but I can't wait to make it official!
Noa Martin - Groomsman
Kainoa is my little cousin and I’m so excited he’s going to be a part of this day. Noa used to be my “co-worker” when we would go do yard work for our Grandpa’s lawn business. We’ve made tons of memories laughing and spending time together out there. The pranks on our Papa were the best! He is a stud football player and the hardest worker I know. Noa is always so supportive of everyone in our family and it was a no-brainer when asking him to be a groomsman!
Samantha Mann - Bridesmaid
Samanatha is my fun and loving cousin whom I have always looked up to! No matter the day, she will stop what she's doing to offer advice, check in on you, or help plan a wedding ;) We have dreamed about this day since we were little girls. Growing up, my favorite thing to do was always hang out with my older cousins (Alex, Samantha, and Anthony). Whenever I was with them, we did "cool" things like go to the mall with no parents or watch the big kid Nickelodeon shows. We truly did grow up together. All of the family birthdays, Sunday dinners, graduations, and trips to Georgia, and now... a wedding. I didn't think twice about having her as a bridesmaid. It was a must. Love you so much! Let's do this thing!
Robert Holmes - Groomsman
Robert and I first started out as teammates on the cheerleading team at FSU. Quickly, we ended up as lifting partners at team workouts and boy was he tough to keep up with! I guess that’s what I get for thinking I can hang with a cross-fitter! At the end of that year, I decided to move in with Bubba and Robert in a house off-campus. This is when our friendship truly grew, as we became family. Robert is one of the most thoughtful and reliable friends and I’m so thankful that he agreed to being my groomsman. Love you brother!
Sophia Mann - Bridesmaid
My sweet little sister... I am so glad she gets to be a part of this day. She is the most caring and selfless sister and not to mention, my built-in best friend. She never fails to document the day with a Tik-Tok and always brings the fun. Of all the memories we have together... makeovers, photoshoots, family vacations, and bugging Dad together, I think this will be my favorite. Love you sis!
Tyler Gray - Groomsman
Tyler is my lifelong friend and will always be considered family. We grew up in the gym and made so many memories cheering together. Some of the best times were messing around at the boys tumbling classes, Rhode Island trips, making finals at Worlds for the first time, and back-flopping off the bridge in Palm Island! One thing about Tyler is I can always count on him for being down to play a round of golf! I’m so thankful that he’s going to be a part of this special day!
Kailandon Martin - Ring Bearer
Landon is my little cousin, who was just adopted into the Abasial/Martin family a few years ago. Landon is full of energy and always keeps everyone laughing! It has been such a blessing getting to watch him grow up these past few years. We love him so much and are so excited to have him as our little Ring Bearer!
