Bride's attendants:
Jenny Au - Maid of Honor, Friend of the Bride
Jenny is my best friend and confidant since elementary school. At recess, we would share a popsicle in the summer, and a warm Vitasoy drink in the winter. Although we went to different high schools, we spent many weekends growing up together. Now Jenny is an e-commerce specialist and web designer in New York. Being a trained artist from The State University of New York at Purchase, she really makes web design into an art. She is also a freelance web designer and model, not to mention the webmaster of this wonderful wedding site.
Iris Leung - Bridesmaid, Sister of the Bride
Iris is my older sister, mother of the flower girl Leslie. Iris introduced me to music when she started taking piano lessons. I would watch her practice and meticulously care for her beautiful piano. Then I wanted to learn to play the piano too. Since then, when I was six years old, to now, I enjoy playing the piano passionately. Thanks, Iris.

After graduating with a Bachelor's degree in business administration (accounting) from Cal State San Marcos, she is now an Associate Accountant for Solar Turbine in San Diego. She currently lives with her husband Sidney and daughter Leslie in a recently purchased, brand new house in the Scripps Ranch area of San Diego.

Kevin Quirk - Bridesmate, Friend of the Bride
Kevin and I were in the same undergraduate program together at UCSD, but we really got to know each other in graduate school. We were both Ph.D. students in the same communications theory program of the electrical engineering department of UCSD. We have the same Ph.D. advisor, Dr. Laurence Milstein. Kevin and I have gone through many ups and downs of the life of a Ph.D. student. We celebrated discoveries, solved many equations, and supported each other, technically and emotionally.

Kevin has just obtained his Ph.D., so he is Dr. Kevin to us. Now he is a proud member of NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena.

Leslie Leung - Flower Girl, Niece of the Bride
Leslie is my smart, adorable 4 1/2-year-old niece who is also an experienced flower girl. She was practicing with me one afternoon near Christmas, and SHE was telling me what I have to do, since she has been a flower girl twice before already. She could even sing "Here comes the bride" as she was pretending to scatter flower petals down the isle. But I thought her version of "here comes the bride" was sounding a lot like the beginning of "Oh Christmas tree".
Ashley Chong - Flower Girl, Cousin of the Bride
Lovely and well-mannered Ashley will be a first grader in September. Although only six and a half years old, she is already a perfect lady. She and Leslie share the same birthday. Maybe because of this invisible bond, the two flower girls are best buddies.

Groom's attendants:
Michael Garner - Best Man, Brother of the Groom
Michael is wanted by the law in only one state, we are very proud. He received his doctorate in optometry from UC Berkeley. Mike now runs his own optometry practice in Las Vegas, Nevada. Don't let the wild look in his eyes fool you, he's one of the best optometrists you will ever meet.
Will Blankley - Best man, Friend of the Groom
Marc and Will have known each other since they were 6 months old. As Marc's mom tells it, Will had chicken pox at the time when they first met. Will is a Federal Officer now. His goals in life are to: raise a wonderful family, get out of debt, and legally carry a gun. He and wife Katia recently have a new baby girl, Valeria.
Bob Marlatt - Groomsman, Friend of the Groom
Bob has known Marc since high school and is now a top selling real estate agent in Thousand Oaks, CA, the town where they all grew up. He has a little know condition called "cocktail party syndrome". (He does not even know that he has it. shhhh.) Bob is best know for the concept of "Bob Time", a state of being where time and space become inconsequential.
George William Blankley IV - Ringbearer, Son of Best Man
George is three and a half years old, and about to start preschool shortly. He is almost as hyper as Daddy Will. Here he is with sister Michelle and newborn sister Valeria.
