Gloria Foster

Mother of the Bride

How blessed I am to have a friend, protector, doctor, cook, counselor, MOTHER, and so much more in one person. At times life may get hard but knowing that I have her makes everything so much better. I am grateful for her loving me UNCONDITIONALLY. My world would not be what it is without her. I am the woman I am today because of her. She is my favorite woman forever! “A mother is she who can take the place of all others, but whose place no one else can take.”

Raymond Foster

In life sometimes God will bless you with the most unexpected, loving gift ever. I am thankful for him being my gift!

Thank you for being a part of this thing that I call my life! ”

My Baby Girl. The most beautiful girl in the world. The girl that lights up my heart with just a smile. I will always love her and support her no matter what. When I look at Olivia, I see greatness. I see a little girl that is going to grow up to be so much more than anyone can expect. She will always be my little princess! “She is the exclamation point in the happiest sentence I could ever write”

The best little sister a person can ask for. She always has encouraging words for me. She is not only a loving sister but my best friend. Having her be a part of one of the biggest days of my life means the world to me. I thank God for blessing me with a sister like her. The bond she and I have is like no other. It is a good feeling to know no matter what life throws at you, your sister will always have your back. “When sisters stand shoulder to shoulder, who stands a chance against us?”

Cara has been by my side since the day I met her. Her personality is like no other. Not only is she my best friend but she is the God Mother of my children. In these eight years of knowing each other, we have so many great memories together. She was there for the birth of my son, we graduated together, and now she will be there to support me on my big day. I can't wait! -A friend is one who overlooks your broken fence and admires the flowers in your garden.

Courtney Morris

Courtney has been my best friend since I was in high school. We witnessed each other go from little girls to grown women.

"A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future and accepts you just the way you are.”

Kanesha Eason

Bridesmaid

Kanesha is a sweetheart. She is always there when needed. Something I admire about her is the love she has for others. The way she cares for her family is awesome. I consider Kanesha family and thank her for being by my side as I enter in this new phase of my life. “Friendship isn’t about who you’ve known the longest, it’s about who walked into your life, said ‘I’m here for you’ and PROVED it.”

Alica is like a daughter to me. I'm blessed to have someone as sweet as her in my life. She is beautiful inside and out. Her strength is incredible. It brings me so much joy to think about her bright future! She will always be my baby girl. “And one day she discovered that she was fierce and strong, and full of fire and that not even she could hold herself back because her passion burned brighter than her fears.”

The love grows in her and becomes an uncontrollable sweetness.

The bond that binds us is beyond choice. We are brothers. We are brothers in what we share.

My Big Boy!! I wish him happiness as he embarks upon a beautiful childhood of growth and change. I want for him the ability to celebrate every day as a precious gift.

Qwaime Chapman

Bell Ringer

My little Qwaime. He is my tough but loving nephew. To me he is so much more than a nephew, more like a son. My love for him I couldn't put into words. I pray he never gets too old and big to come "give auntie a hug". His smile is so amazing that once seen, it causes those looking to instantly smile as well. Nephews are like sunshine on a rainy day.

Raymond Foster Jr

Rayray is the baby of the siblings. To see him growing into this smart and awesome man has been amazing. He has so much potential. His future looks so bright. I can’t wait for him to do everything he dreamed of and so much more!!!! I will be cheering him on every step of the way. Brother and sister, together as friends, ready to face whatever life sends. Joy and laughter or tears and strife, holding hands tightly as we dance through life!

Kentrey White

I want you to believe deep in your heart that you are capable of achieving anything you put your mind to. Believe that you will never lose, that you either win or learn.

My sweet baby Jermaine. The moment I laid eyes on him my heart melted. He is my sweet and funny nephew. He will always hold a special place in my heart. Watching him grow into this respectful and smart young man has been wonderful. Auntie will always love him!!!!
