My favorite memory with Bryce and Yesenia has to be our double date to the ice skating rink in Brentwood. It was early on in my relationship with Anthony, and I needed some sisterly backup to help me get a better feel for him. Naturally, Yesenia and Bryce were all in, and between the falls and the awkward moments, it was a perfect mix of fun and bonding.
Most likely to: Cry during the vows. I mean, their love story is like something out of a fairytale—meeting in middle school, surviving the chaos of young love, long-distance college, and all the growing pains that come with it? Talk about emotional maturity! Their love feels like a shining example of what real emotional growth looks like.
If I were a cocktail, I’d definitely be a Moscow mule—bold, a little spicy, but always refreshing!

My favorite memory with Bryce and Yesenia would be all the late nights we’ve had talking, laughing and overall just living life together. From living hours apart to now just living 10 min away, being able to live life with them day-to-day has been a dream come true.
Most likely to: Sob during the ceremony, run away from the dance floor, become the shot girl at the end of the night.
If I were a cocktail, I’d be a Paloma. Bc I love them.

My favorite memory of them is when Yesenia pushed Bryce in a bush. Yesenia and Bryce just started dating and no one knew. Yesenia and I were at a family party and Bryce wanted to see her. He ran miles to come say, “Hi” and we all sat and talked. Until she heard her dad’s truck turning the corner and freaked out. Yesenia quickly pushed Bryce in the bush so that her dad wouldn’t see him. In that moment it was our secret and now they are getting married.
Most Likely to: Run towards the bouquet.
If I were a cocktail, I'd be a Spicy Margarita

My absolute favorite memory with Yesenia & Bryce as a couple has to be during our group trip to Hawaii back in 2023. It was July 17th in the wee hours of the morning; what I thought was gonna end on a warm and summery night completely turned into a hilariously bone chilling & spooky morning. Let’s just say there was one uninvited guest that didn’t exactly take physical form. This will forever go down in history as one of the most iconic & funny moments that you just had to be there for!
Most likely to: Be the first one to take off my heels, put my hair up in a bun & rock it Hawaiian style!
If I were a cocktail, I’d be a jack & coke. Spare me the fancy glass, I’ll take the bottle!

It’s honestly tough to pick just one favorite memory because there have been so many amazing moments with these two. But if I had to choose, I’d say it’s the day they got engaged. We celebrated their engagement and our birthdays at Spoons, and let me tell you, it was such a fun night! The evening was filled with so much love, laughter, and dancing.
Most likely to: Bust out a fan on the dance floor—let’s be real, it gets hot! What can I say, I’ve got to stay cool while I’m having the time of my life.
If I were a cocktail, I'd be a nice, and simple Tequila Pineapple—just refreshing and easy-going, like me!

My favorite memory is going to Vegas to celebrate Bryce’s 21st Birthday. Getting to hang out and connect with both of them was incredible.
Most likely to: Cry Uncontrollably from Happiness throughout the Night
If I were a cocktail, I'd be an Affogato Cocktail. Coffee, ice cream, coffee liqueur.

My favorite memory of Bryce and Yesenia is when Bryce brought Yesenia to go glamping with our mom's side of the family in Coloma for the first time. They had been dating for several years up to that point but I still didn't know her very well. so I would tease her and trash talk just to see if she would talk trash back to me and boy did she. It made me happy to see how well she fit in and how well she got along with everyone. It was the first time I realized she was gonna be apart of this family for a long long time. Nearly a decade of many laughs and deep talks later and she's now my sister!!
Most likely to: Disappear during a bouquet toss.
If I were a cocktail, I would be an AMF because blue is my favorite color.

I pretty much have endless favorite memories with Bryce, so it’s more than difficult to just choose one to say the least.
An honorable mention has to be working at Geek Squad with Bryce for like a month lol
However one of the ones that hold a special place in my heart is moving Bryce into his apartment at APU. It was some of the first times we were both fully independent and living on our own. I couldn’t be more proud of him going to college and being able to play football.
But it was moments of being proud of the men we were becoming in SoCal. Moments that I saw us as kids and hanging out at the Antioch house all together. And moments that I truly felt how much Bryce meant to me. Our relationship continues to mold and deepen as we get older but I couldn’t do life without him. God knew exactly what he was doing when placing him in my life and I couldn’t be more grateful to God for allowing for Bryce’s influence in my life.
Most likely to: Pretend I drink at the wedding
If I were a drink I would be Hennessy

From waiting to get picked up in middle school, with Yesenia awkwardly distanced away from me hanging out with some boy to hiding in the wilderness as Bryce prepares to ask for Yesenia's hand in marriage. Every memory has been kind and comfortable.
Most likely to: Be holding my girlfriends hand as she looks at me connotatively during the vows
If I were a Cocktail: idk what that is but my favorite drink is Thai Tea

My favorite memory was in Fall 2017 after Bryce's senior night for De La Salle Varsity Football. We all went out to Dennys after the game. For a solid 10 minutes me, Yesenia, and Bryce were continuously laughing to the point of tears and gasping for air.
Mostly likely to: Smile and tear up watching my best friend marry the love of his life.
If I were a cocktail, I would be a jack and coke; simply because those are my two favorite beverages.

The fondest memory I have with Bryce and Yesenia is the night of Bryce’s 21st birthday. We were in our hotel room at the end of the night and there was endless laughter and jokes happening the whole time. I know I can always count of them to bring the energy in the room.
Most likely to: Give Bryce a tissue when he starts crying.
If I were a cocktail, I’d be a Frozen Mango Margarita because I’m cool, sweet, a good time, and you can’t go wrong with having me around!
