I had 12 bridesmaids who are all still my best friends, and I would have a few more to add if I were getting married today!

Alida Baldazo Chicago
Half Dutch and half Mexican, and I always thought that was a unique combo Named after my Dutch great-great-aunt; nobody pronounces my name correctly, but I’m never offended by it Occasionally a stand-in for my husband’s social media projects at work and was on a billboard once An animal lover and self-proclaimed “cat lady”. I also have the sweetest pit bull ever. A major control freak and have to remind myself to “let it go” frequently All about camping, fishing and hiking and I go on annual kayak trips at Turkey Run Married to someone four inches shorter than me – without heels on A band geek at heart; I played clarinet for seven years, piano for a couple and now handbells in my church choir An avid concert-goer – I go to about 20 concerts a year A person with MAJOR anxiety. Agreeing to be featured here made me dizzy and my throat close up.

A triple citizen of the United States, United Kingdom, and Nigeria. Let’s just say I like having options. Yoruba, and “Ariyike” means “We have this to cherish” A dancing queen who met Isaac Dudley Diggs – the love of her life – on the dance floor on his 21st birthday…and we’ve been dancing ever since, with no plans to stop Utterly smitten with our gorgeous, funny, infuriating teenage son, Caleb James Oluloshe Diggs. “Oluloshe” is Yoruba for “God has done this.” One of three, and blessed to be the eldest child of the most loving mother in the universe. Yes, I’m her favorite (no matter what the other two brats say). A professionally trained actor who studied with the incredible Oscar/Tony/Golden Globe-winning director Mike Nichols (RIP) Fiercely loyal to, and protective of, those I care about – and there are many (and counting) An optimist. I count my blessings every day. My glass is never half empty. In fact, my cup runneth over. Transformed by the practice of yoga. I can’t imagine life without it, or my wardrobe without yoga pants. On occasion, a real potty-mouth (don’t tell my son)
