Catalina Roldan, Officiant
"Meeting Jake and Sami changed my life forever. In a bad way. Because Jake has single-handedly ruined my life. As the officiant of this wedding, I will be using my platform to enlighten Sami on her chaotic destiny if she chooses to say, 'I do.'"

"Listen, I love Sami. She has become a dear friend. But nothing can replace the years of Primo’s runs, movies, and mountain biking time that I’ve accumulated alongside my best friend, Tuna. I mean we literally watched Season 2 of Game of Thrones in one Saturday. Where’s my ring? I digress. Jake is the most thoughtful friend I know, and he always spoils those closest to him. I can’t wait to take a weekend to spoil him next August!"

"I’ve been friends with Tuna ever since we were seated next to each other in Mr. Warnica’s math class in 6th grade at Derby. We bonded over our love for movies and sports, and here we are 17 years later. I can’t wait to celebrate him and Sami."

"December 8th 1994 - the day I found my life calling and became a big sister to miss Samantha Beth Dubow. That little nugget grew up to be one of the most generous, fun-loving and compassionate people on earth. She is always down for an adventure, to try a new restaurant, or to just generally be a menace on society. I couldn’t be more thrilled that she found her menace in crime in Jake, and I can’t wait to see what kind of epic party these two hooligans pull off!"

"As the forgotten 3rd Dubow sister, I might technically have more earlier memories than Molly. It is with this wisdom of knowledge that I can confidently confirm that Jake is the perfect match for our Samantha. Their love is a gift to our family, and I can’t wait to celebrate our new brother in law!"

"Ever since I met Jake on a blind date (facebook marketplace), we instantly bonded over our love for pizza, football and snowboarding. He quickly became the best friend and best roommate I could ever ask for (don’t tell Kelsie) and I can’t thing of a single important memory over the past few years that he and Sami weren’t a part of. Plus he is incredibly handsome."

“10 years ago as freshmen in college, Sami and I met as 'bunk mates' sleeping side by side in our twin bunks in the Delta Gamma sleeping porch. Although she snored and I was messy, we’ve been friends ever since. Sami is the kind of friend that has become family to me. I’m really lucky to have her in my life, and I’m already planning our combined family vacations together.”

"From the moment I met Jake, I knew we had something special. We are constantly on the same wavelength about everything in life. When he wants to go to the movies, so do I. When I want to drink a beer, so does he. When he wants to take his shirt off at a wedding, I encourage it. We just always match each other’s energy and I think that’s what makes us such great partners (pickleball and in life… sorry, Sami!). I am so incredibly lucky to have Jake and Sami in my life - you guys make everything exponentially more fun and I am SO FRICKIN’ ready to celebrate!!! GO DAWGS!! GO BLUE!!"

"From Oktoberfest in Germany, to birthright in Israel, to ski trips in Steamboat, Sami is the greatest travel buddy and confidant a girl could ask for! She brings joy, energy, and thoughtfulness to every friendship she has, and can even make you a killer nickname if you're a lucky one! Looking forward to more adventures of S Dub and BB Feldz (+Jake and Kade)."

"Reasons why I love tuna: He was an excellent 3 tech, he got me fired up for Friday night lights, he has always had my back no matter what. Tuna has been a loyal friend to me for 15+ years. And he shreds on the mountain bike."

"Sami and I have been friends for over 15 years. From awkward twilight obsessed middle school days (team Jacob), overzealously studying and referencing snl in high school, trading marketing notes and rooting for the dawgs in college 💛💜, to being each others bridesmaids, we’ve always been by the others side. I’m sooo freakin excited and honored to be next to her when she kisses lips and marries her best friend 🎊"

"Tuna, brooo, I love you man. You will be the first one to get me fired up for a night out or settle down for a good heart to heart. Most importantly, you’ve always been a true friend that I can count on. Our friendship has remarkably grown stronger since you moved to Seattle, and I am so glad we have been able to grow closer over the years. Sami’s one lucky lady."

"Most people have their parents pick them up from the school bus, I had Jake. He’s been a big brother a role model for me my whole life. Sometimes a good one sometimes not so much. Love the guy and so happy I get to be a part of this moment of his life."

“I met Sami during Freshman year at UW. She has remained an incredible friend for nearly a decade. Back then, I had a feeling she would become a big part of my relationship with my future soulmate. That came to fruition when I met Jake and we’ve never looked back. My wife Sarah was there too.”
