Our Story

Our Photos

One of my big sisters since birth! From when Erin and I would take baths together, to putting makeup on our dolls as kids,  to playing basketball together, to dating, and now adulting, we have been with each other through it all. Erin has always looked out for me in ways that I couldn't even imagine. She knows me inside and out and is the best friend and sister I could've ever asked for! And there was no question that she was going to be my Maid of Honor!

Erin Kurosaki

Suhail and I are true brothers from other mothers! We met at a music festival back in 2018, but our friendship is not defined by just good times surrounded by music. Our brotherhood is full of laughs (like during the time he spilled a full jar of BBQ sauce in his kitchen TWICE), video games, anime, and deep talks about our futures. He has always supported me through my triumphs and challenges, and I cannot think of anyone who would be a better fit to be my Best Man!

Jess and I have been through it all together, from studying for school, working out, dancing at music festivals, and everything in between. She is one of the funniest, caring, and hardworking people I know. Jess is my soul sister, and Axel knows that Jess is part of the package. We are so happy to have Jess be a big part of our lives and our special day as my Maid of Honor!

I love Sean so much! Sean entered our church youth group back when we were in high school, and he was so shy. But he quickly fit into our group, and we became great buds so easily. We sang together in our praise & worship band, were competitive in basketball, had many sleepovers at his house, and even ordered 100 PC McNuggets from McDonald's one time. Sean is so present and so humble, and his presence always makes me feel calm. He is exactly who I need/want by my side, no matter what.

Air is Ax's oldest sister, and she has always welcomed me to the family with open arms. As a baby raver, Air has shown me what PLUR truly is (peace, love, unity, and respect), and has taught me to bring that mindset into my everyday life. Ax, Air, and Tina share a huge love of music and dancing, and I'm so thankful they brought me into this space. I am so excited to call her my sister officially!

Ariane Sta Maria

Justin is Nica's older brother, and I am beyond excited to call him my older brother, too! He is the biggest light that illuminates every room he enters. I think of the time when Justin called me "The Secret Weapon" after I helped out during Christian and Sam's wedding, and it made me feel so special. Justin makes every party better, including this bridal party!!  

Justin Ramos

I was most nervous to meet Amber, Ax's older sister. But as a fellow middle child, we got along well from the start, had a lot in common and lots more to talk about. If I didn’t know any better, I would’ve thought that Amber and Ax were twins because they look so much alike! She’s a wonderful mama to 2 little ones and hopefully we will give them cousins in the future. Even though I just missed out on her pre-mom days, I’m glad we can still share a drink or two together. Cheers to us becoming sisters! 

Amber Vergel De Dios

Being Nica's younger brother, I was so intimidated to meet Christian at first! I am pretty shy when it comes to meeting new people, especially my fiancee's family. But after a couple of years of getting to know each other, we have gotten extremely close. We bond over rogue-like video games and competitive sports/board games, and we even have deep talks about significant changes and obstacles in our lives. I am so excited to call him my brother!  

Christian Ramos

My other big sister! Krista was your classic older sibling/cousin growing up -  intimidating and hilarious. We used to flinch whenever she moved because we were afraid of her 'raptor-clawing' us. She would always tell us to do ridiculous things and of course, we would listen and still always do. While she hasn't changed in that aspect, Krista and I have grown to become sisters and can talk about anything and everything and lean on each other. She is the best mom to my favorite little guy, Eli, and I can only hope to be a mom like her one day!

Krista Paris

I met JP during youth group many years ago, and our inside jokes have always been random, which I absolutely love. We would quote super random and cringey YouTube videos together, learn random choreography to show each other, and play at the same arena against each other in CounterStrike. The only thing that isn't random is our brotherhood, and we know that we are always there to lift each other up. He is also probably the best dancer I know, and I can't wait to see him boogie on the dance floor! 

John Paul Bonite

Sam is more than just my sister-in-law; she’s one of my closest friends, even though she was a little intimidated by me at first. We share a love of  BTS/SEVENTEEN, crafting, and hunting for sea glass on the beach! She and Ax both love scary movies…! Sam is silly, genuine, thoughtful, and supportive. She has the kindest heart of anyone I know, and I’m so thankful that’s she’s my sister!

Samantha Ramos

Jimwell is the COOLEST guy I know. We met at church in Glendale when I was about 13 or 14 years old. When I think of our friendship, I think about our krumping and breakdancing days, being champions in our church youth basketball league, and having our own raves in our rooms. This guy is so spiritual, genuine, calming, and kind; it is a no-brainer that I want him by my side for our wedding.  

Jimwell Castillo

Cat and I met in Optometry school and have been by each other's side since day one! Whether we are laughing, crying, or gossiping, she's the best shoulder to lean on and always gives such wise advice. She is an amazing friend to me and I'm excited for her to be "Cool Aunt Cat" to our future children. Along with Jess and Kristin, the four of us are inseparable and are stuck with each other for life!

Catherine Luo

This funny dude named Josh and I met through Jimwell in Vegas back in 2016. I didn't really chat much with him at first, but I quickly realized how hilarious he was after hanging out with him more. He always makes me laugh on the dance floor, but he is also a super sweet dude. He always roots for me and Nica and makes sure we are always having fun. I am excited to have him by my side on this big day!

Joshua Dumilon

Kristin and I sat next to each other in every single lecture, every day, for 3 years in Optometry school. She would always distract me with funny social media posts or BuzzFeed quizzes. We can talk to each other about anything and everything, and she is truly one of the most genuine friends you will ever meet. She's an amazing mama to baby Sebastian, and I cannot wait for our little babies to become best friends as well! Fun fact: I caught the bouquet at her wedding, and Kristin caught the bouquet at Cat's wedding!

Kristin Heilman

I will never forget quickly connecting with Raff when we met talking about our favorite video game- "Final Fantasy." Raff is the sweetest dude who always gives the most sentimental gifts during birthdays and holidays, which shows that he loves to make people feel special. Raff and I started going to EDM shows not too long ago, and we always embrace each other's company and friendship (during every good drop, lol). There is no question that he will bring the best vibes and the biggest cheers on our wedding day.
