Wedding Party

Samantha Arreola
Samantha Arreola - Maid of Honor
Samy and Melissa go way back all the way to 1996 when she decided to come into this world and take away all the attention from Melissa. Although Samantha and Melissa argued like no other when they were younger, they truly loved each other. Being 3 years apart they got to experience playing soccer together and really enjoying their time before the other two sisters were born ugh. Now they call each other for everything, they know they can count on each other and tell each other how it is even if one of them doesn't want to hear it. That’s sisterly love for you!
Marcanthony Carrillo
Marcanthony Carrillo - Best Man
Marcanthony better know as Mac, is the older brother of AJ. Only separated by less than two years, they grew up doing almost everything together including sports, school, and many parties. The experiences while growing up only made their relationship stronger going from bartending a wedding at the age of 15 to being on the same high school soccer team and science class... Mac wasn't always the brightest but has always been their since day 1.
Emely Ibarra
Emely Ibarra - Maid of Honor
Emely and Melissa are high school sweet hearts. They relationship started off rocky but grew to something special. Their idea of late nights in high school consisted of Mcdonalds drive through lines and occasionally going out. It flourished even more when they went off to college and only cities away Melissa managed to make her way to the beautiful Santa Clara campus mainly because Emely wasn’t too thrilled with the brick dorms at San Jose State. The deal was according to their mothers if their boy friends didn’t propose they were going to have Emely and Melissa get married with a beautiful zoom wedding.
Andrew Solorza
Andrew Solorza - Groomsman
Andrew and Andrew couldn't work so it became AJ and Zo. Starting at young age their paths crossed through sports over numerous years. Sports turned into family parties, and family parties turned into Vegas parties. Their relationship somehow always stays together as AJ moved back home to end up as co-workers with Zo. Leave it to Zo to always be down for a good time, and not always making the best decisions..
Katia Arreola
Katia Arreola - Bridesmaid
Katia the third sister..... Katia keeps Melissa young with all her Tik Tok dances. Katia decided she didn't want to play soccer or other contact sports and she decided Dance was her sport. So she allowed Melissa to live out her excitement of Dance Moms by going to her performances. Their recent bonding has been over Melissa teaching Katia to drive when she is home visiting, we aren't to sure what is scarier Melissa teaching Katia or the fact that Katia is now driving!
Niko Carrillo
Niko Carrillo - Groomsman
The year 1997 was probably one of the best and worst years to come. Andrew was blessed with a pain in ass younger brother named Niko. Being four years apart, competing against each other was always the basis of our relationship since neither one of us liked to lose. The competing has never really ended, but they continued to be there to support each other over the years. Support is mainly Aj cooking dinner for Niko so he doesn't consume all the Dino nuggets in the house.
Krista Arreola
Krista Arreola - Bridesmaid
Krista is the youngest of the 4 sisters, the wild child. Melissa and Krista are 15 years apart which therefor allowed for many people to think she was Melissa's daughter. You might have seen her on all of Melissa insta stories, yes this is her the girl that never stops dancing. Melissa use to tell Krista she was going to put her on toddler and tiaras and thats where her confidence flourished. Catch her on the dance floor in Mexico where she will be busting a move to every song.
Patrick Dazo
Patrick Dazo - Ring Bearer
Dazo, The Daz, Baby Dazo or AJs favorite one of all Dazito. They have bonded over golf and dealing with the Arreola Sisters. Through the chaos, yelling, crying they have managed to survive it all. Having the opportunity to travel and share many experiences, their bond has grown over several years and wouldn't have been able to survive without each other.
Tayler Boyd
Tayler Boyd - Bridesmaid
Tayler and Melissa met through club soccer. It all started one night when Melissa and Tayler went out to some parties on campus. Believe it or not they have some pretty crazy memories together.. they were pretty wild! After both joining the same sorority they grew even closer. After college they lived together for a few years. Their time consisted of Tayler taking care of Melissa when she was sick and Melissa cooking Mexican food for Tayler. Its Melissas other bae.
William Boyd
William Boyd - Groomsman
Will and AJ started their journey in college being their to support each since their girlfriends at the time where in the same sorority. Supporting each other really looked like drinking beer, playing darts, and getting yelled at together. AJ was lucky enough to see Will and his girlfriend now become his wife and now Will he will now have the same opportunity to stand by AJ on their special day.
Kelsey Hew
Kelsey Hew - Bridesmaid
Melissa and Kelsey met Freshman year. Although Melissa was scared of Kelsey at the start they grew closer through the years, it had to do with their competitive side for sports for different events for their sorority. They attended 49er games, snow trips, football Sundays, and while living in the same apartment complex they would find them selves checking in. Now 200 miles away yet they continue to be there for each other. Mainly Kelsey listening to Melissa stress out about things and always reminding her to chill giving her the tough love she needs.
Brandon Aufdermauer
Brandon Aufdermauer - Groomsman
Even though Brandon and AJ were involved in different fraternities, they always seemed to have the same interest. A good time, alcohol, and the Raiders. From being roommates after college to spending parties together in Vegas, and attending Raider games their relationship stays connected every year trying to win fantasy football leagues. Although they might not see each other often it always seems to pick back up where they left off

Chelsie is Melissas go to when it comes to make up and making sure she doesn't look like a clown. They are really the perfect balance for crazy and calm in their own way.

I'm not sure if words can really describe what is going on in the photo, but Huni and AJ have college stories you probably wouldn't believe.

After numerous parties and mostly sober experiences Huni, is still their to be supportive and claims he is the reason Melissa and AJ ever met....
