Hello! I am Linda, Leena's sister, and am also delighted to be her maid of honor as well! I grew up with Leena in Philadelphia, but now live in Detroit. For fun I usually like to catch a show, or adventure outside in nature. While Leena and I have lived on opposite sides of the country for a long time now, we always manage at least once a year to get together for a good time, usually for an Eagles game (go birds!). My favorite time so far was our road trip from LA to Sedona to the Grand Canyon, to Las Vegas. Giving Leena and Anthony all my love, and wishing the married couple-to-be nothing but the best in their future together!

My name is Melissa and I am Leena's older (and wiser) sister-in-law. We have the same loves in life - adventures like going down water slides, hiking up mountains, my three little munchkins, and our family. Now, we look forward to sharing a new love as Anthony joins our family!

My brother, my best man, and my childhood "sparring partner" literally. From play-fighting as kids to gaming marathons with our sister, David’s always been by my side. These days, he’s a legit combat instructor (so no more play-fighting), and a talented artist who designs shirts. He’s got my back in every way, and I wouldn’t want anyone else standing next to me on the big day.

Hi I am Ashley Williams, sister of the Groom and soon to be sister-in-law. I love playing billiards, dancing, and being an helicopter mechanic/air crewmember. One of my favorite moments with Leena was right before my daughter, Ava, 1st birthday. Ava was trying to get in Leena's purse so badly that she kept trying to push Leena to the side so she could see what was in it.

My future brother-in-law, and a guy who welcomed me into his family like I’d always been there. Whether it was offering us a place to stay in Philly or just showing support for Leena and I, Lijo has always shown kindness and respect. Everyone that knows me knows how much I work, Lijo might have me beat and in more countries too. Proud to call him a groomsman.

Hi! My name is Liya Edward. I am one of Leena’s first cousin and God-sister. We come from a strong close-knit family and I think we can agree we define the statement of “my cousins are one of my first real friends.” We share countless memories together from childhood , I wouldn’t know where to start. But one thing I admire about Leena is her courage. She’s always the first to volunteer and try new things. Her kindness, empathy and adventurous personality is something we can all aspire to. And now we get to celebrate her happiness with the love of her life. Congratulations Anthony and Leena! Welcome to the fam Anthony!

Hi, I'm Leena’s cousin! Fun fact, I have 2 birthdays 🎂 I have so many memories growing up with Leena! From playing outside, practicing for church dances and then watching her fall flat on her face on stage in front of everyone, playing pranks on each other, etc! But one of my favorite things about Leena is her ability to never turn down a dare! Growing up during a time without IG or FB means few of them are recorded but one in particular where she was dared to walk down the street wearing a churidar and full crazy-person makeup waving at every car that passed by has to be one of my favs!

My name is Leesa John and I’m Leena’s 1st cousin/sister. She had the privilege of growing up with me :) We’ve gone through all of our big milestones in life together and besides the fact I spent majority of my life bullied by her (it’s how we show our love) I couldn’t feel more grateful to be able to be right beside her for her biggest and most memorable milestone yet!

I’m Jessie one of Leena’s first cousins and as you might notice am the only one without an L-name so maybe I’ll be easier to identify?! A fun fact ? I like food a lot, so much so that every year I do a food-themed crawl for my birthday and this year is the year of the burger so pretty pumped about that. Now, on to the Leena, the reason you’re reading this anyway, she’s become my go to over the years for someone who I can call at anytime- the good or the bad- and who I know no matter what will be genuine in her support for me and with a heart like that I’m glad it’s finally going to be cherished as it should be. I’m even more glad to be part of Leena and Anthony’s special day - looking forward to seeing you on the dance floor soon!

Hi, I'm Karley, and I've had the joy of being a close friend of Leena's for the past nine years! I am so honored to be by her side on their magical day! We first met at a Christmas party through mutual friends, and the moment she walked through the door, her positive and fun energy was undeniable. I knew instantly that I wanted to be friends with her. Since then, she's been an incredible support system and confidant in my life, and I truly can't imagine my time in LA without her! We've shared so many amazing experiences together, from attending concerts and events all over Southern California to traveling to New Orleans. Every adventure with Leena is filled with laughter, great memories, and a whole lot of fun!

Hi my name is Janelle Aldieri. I fancy myself an East Asian cuisine specialist as a personal chef to my lovely husband and our toddlers ;) Leena is my dear friend. In 2017, a mutual friend at that time introduced us. I instantly liked Leena and knew I wanted her to be my friend. She exuded an authenticity that felt like home and the east coast attitudes that I grew up with. So I asked for her number and have always thanked God for her friendship. Leena is wise beyond her years and has such a big heart. I can always count on her for her insight and advice. I am elated for the soon-to-be Mr. and Mrs. Williams and all that God has in his plan for their future together.

Hi I'm Kara! I am adventurists and plant person who has become one of Leena's closest friends! When we first met at work almost 10 years ago, we didn't immediately like each other. But working together and having a similar work ethic and drive to make people's lives better turned us from colleagues to real friends. We're so different yet we find commonality in being a safe space for the other person.

Isaiah’s been my friend since we were 15 and airbrushing t-shirts in high school so yeah, he’s basically family. He introduced me to Chris in college, and has stayed close through every chapter, even making the trip to LA every year to stay in touch. Loyal, creative, and real as they come. Isaiah is the kind of friend everyone wants and a groomsman I'm glad to have.

My college roommate, my brother from another madre, and one of the most talented 3D artists I know. Chris and I studied hard, worked harder, and partied... responsibly-ish. He’s been a constant source of positivity and good vibes ever since we met. Chris has been there for me at my lowest and now as a groomsman gets to be there at my highest.

Jason is my fiancée’s cousin, but from the first time I met him, he felt like my cousin too. He’s hilarious, easygoing, and somehow manages to be the life of the party and a great dad at the same time. He made me feel instantly at home with the family, and I’m lucky to call him a friend, luckier to call him a groomsman.

Meet Leena's pride and joy, her two beautiful nieces and handsome nephew! We love that they are part of our special day because they are so special to us!

Meet the newest member to our squad, Ava! Ava is Anthony's niece and has absolutely stolen the hearts of her family! We love little tiny human.
