Cristina & Nelson

Emmanuel Cordeiro - Best Man

Groom's side, Brother
Manny is Nelson's older brother.  He's a contractor and will make sure that we build a "solid" future together.

Sandra Misa - Maid of Honor

Bride's side, Friend
I've known Sandra since we were in grade 4 together. Growing up we were known as the "CN Tower and Miniature Golf Course" or as "Big John Stud and Weasel". We've been through a lot together and we're best friends. We were roommates in University and our friendship remains strong.

Patricia Fernandes - Bridesmaid

Bride's side, Sister
Trish is my big sister and my "financial advisor". I'd be lost without her practical advice.
We lived in the same dorm in University. She was known as "Spud" and I was known as "Smallfry". Together we were known as the "Potato Sisters". Wouldn't you know she went on to become the Internal Controls Manager for a Potato Chip Company......

Cristina Da Silva - Bridesmaid

Bride's side, Friend
Cristina and I have known each other since Communion class. We could always appreciate each other's sense of humor. She is aka "Prima Joana"

Janette Suljak - Bridesmaid

Bride's side, Friend
Janette and I have known each other since high school. She got married most recently (out of our friends) and I'll be looking to her, for advice on staying calm throughout  the whole process.

Jayson Cordeiro - Usher

Groom's side, Brother
Jayson is Nelson's younger brother. He is into Chukido Kwan (martial arts) so no one can get out of line at the wedding!

Edwin Tobar - Usher

Groom's side, Friend
Nelson and Edwin have known each other since high school. They love to bug each other, but they can always count on each other. This pic was taken at Rockwood.

Paul Maria - Usher

Groom's side, Friend
Paul was Nelson's neighbour. They grew up together. We're glad that he can take time away from his favourite sport of fishing to eat all the seafood that he wants at our wedding.

Julia DaSilva - Flower Girl

Bride's side, Friend's Daughter
She will look like a little princess...can't wait to hear all the "awe's" as she walks down the aisle.

Luke Misa - Ring Boy

Bride's side, Friend's Son
He's a cutie and all the little girls will be after him.
