Steve and I are keepin’ it all in the family for the wedding parties.  We have picked each of these people because they are the closest to us and we love them so much!  We know they will honor their position well and we feel they will help us make this a day to remember!

Groomsmen

David Rodrigue

Best Man

My dad has always been a role model for me.  He cares for others, has a wonderful sense of humor, and a lot of knowledge in many areas of life.  Many grooms would choose a close friend as their best man, but I felt my dad would fit this position the best, and I love him tremendously.

Mark Hopeman

Groomsman

Mark has been just like a blood father to me, and has put up with the worst of my teenage years with love.  He’s compassionate, humble, and has such a kind-hearted spirit.  I respect and love him with all my heart, and am honored to have him by my side for this special day.

Donald Rodrigue

Groomsman

My uncle Don has been a great spiritual influence to me.  Though at a young age I knew little about spiritual things, I look back now and truly see Jesus Christ lived out through his life.  It is a blessing to have him along side me in my wedding, and I have a great love for him.

Elliot Archuleta

Groomsman

Elliot has always welcomed me with open arms, and treated me just like a brother.  He has a great personality, and it has been a joy to come to know him.  As Marisa’s youngest sibling, I really wanted him to be a groomsman, and I love him like a brother. 

Marco Rodrigue

Groomsman

Marco is a pleasure to be around.  His excitement and enthusiasm influence everyone around him.  Though we don’t spend a lot of time together because he lives in New Zealand, the time we do share is always a wonderful experience.  Having my brother as a groomsman is a must.

Bridesmaids

Leah Archuleta

Maid of Honor

Leah is my one and only sister and I wouldn’t have anyone else be my Maid of Honor.  As we grow older, we grow closer, and I treasure her as a very best friend and loving sister.

Danielle Caprioli

Bridesmaid

Danielle is my dear cousin.  She’s only a year younger than me so ever since I moved to New Mexico when I was 10, we have been very close.  She is a sweet and loyal friend and I am honored to have her at my side.

Emily Rodrigue

Bridesmaid

Em is Steve’s sister but not only that, she has always made me feel like she’s my sister.  Through Steve we have come to be great friends and now that she will officially be my sister, it seems natural to have her at my side.

Christy Archuleta

Bridesmaid

Christy is my dear cousin. We have grown up pretty close, spending each summer at our grandma's house with all the cousins! I enjoy the time we spend together at church, growing in Christ and I love her and am really happy to have her at my side.

Rhyanne Archuleta

Bridesmaid

Rhyanne is also a dear cousin of mine.  We are very alike; after all, we are Archuleta girls at heart.  I love her and it is an honor to have her in the wedding.
