Meet the Party
Bridesmaids
Ilana Taxman-Mendoza
My biz savvy younger sis lives in Chicago and recently met the love of her life. As a child she would literally have loud arguments with me in her sleep. She probably still does, lol!
Barbara Mendoza
Barbie, aka Bambi, and I grew up together as kids. She was also my protector at camp. If anyone messed with me, she was sure to show them her hot tempered Latina side and yank their ponytail. When we played truth or dare, she always chose “dare” and that’s why I love her!
Erica Sietsma
My college bestie! One day her pet python “Pandora” escaped from its cage and nearly killed me while I was in nothing but my bath towel. Ask her the story.
Laurin Cabralissa
We met during the casting of a reality show. While neither of us made the cut, we became fast friends.
Natalie Giraldo
I met this beauty at 5am on a hosting gig. She was my makeup artist. We bonded over beauty, Latin culture and her infectious laugh.
Evelyn Torres
My high-rise neighbor for years until we both purchased homes. Our friendship blossomed during the pandemic as we bonded through scary times. Her big heart, sass and laughter got me through it.
Groomsmen
Andy Weitzel
My old Wombmate, identical twin Brother - four minutes apart, and sidekick of 42 years. "Dice" is my best friend, and business partner. He's a genius artist, tattoo artist, graphic designer, and illustrator. Foodie. Harley Biker. Taught me everything about punk and metal music, and molded my passion for HC punk.
Jorge Diaz
Jorgie is a native New Yowkah, born and raised in the Lower East Side. Nicest guy there is, my friend for life, and the guy ya want to have a beer with, daily. The last true gentlemen.
Daniel Seron
My BFAM. I met Daniel when he worked in the Leasing office of a high rise apartment I lived in on 42nd st. We started hanging out and became friends fast. He's also into punk and metal gigs, motorcycles, camping, mixology, etc, he's my other twin. Friends for life.
Derek Anovick
Derek is one of the most unique humans on earth. Maybe the universe. He's extreme in everything he does, nothing is suttle. Extremly friendly, talkative, curious, ambition, positive, and hard working. He's a machine: builds companies, trains dogs, flies planes, rides motorcycles, plays guitar, trained dancer, body builder, speaks 6 languages, world traveler, and one day will be a stand-up commedian. How he has time for all this is a complete mistery.
Jason Hill
"Smooth" is the most real and brutally-honest guy I know. Although originally from the Widwest like myself, he's more of a NYer than all the natives I know. He's obsessed with fashion, art, interior design, and perfectly embodies the urban lifestyle (minus being a foodie). He's getting better, but has the food pallet of an eight year old. I'm not being mean, he litterally orders from the kid's menu... Aside from trying onion, he's ride or die, always down for anythign and would give you the shirt (XS) off his back.
Andrew Wilson
Coming Soon...
Flower Girl
Frida Chihualo
Our brindle of joy. Our Chihuahua baby. She's thirteen years young, and completes our family. Don't worry she only fake-bites.
Honorary Bridesmaid
Olive Weitzel
We adore Olive, Joseph's niece, and that's why we've crowned her our Honorary Bridesmaid.
