Maid of Honor
Daughter of the bride. Kenyelle is a consistent reminder of how great it is to be a mom. My first child, we have watched each other grow. It gives me goosebumps when I think of her beauty and intelligence. I beam with pride to see her display strength and wisdom beyond her years. I promised not to cry while writing this........ I’m failing miserably!
Best Man
Brother of the groom. A true big brother. I snuck out behind him and walked a little ways behind, through bushes and track roads to watch him play basketball. (Shhhhhh🤫) I would make my way to the front of the house to see what he wore when he went out on dates. I would stay up late and wait for him to come home from work! No, not Mike. I wanted to be like “Pipe”
Matron of Honor
Sister In Law of the Bride. A true example of a rock, a friend and a confidant. She is stable and loving! One word we share jokingly: “Shameful”

Groomsman
Friend of the groom. For years he watched me lead our basketball league in 3s and lose🤦🏾♂️ Coach Watson begged me to play for him every year. But, Of course I waited until I was old to join him and still won a championship as a 39 year old senior citizen. “Cybots to the world”

Officiant
Aunt of the Bride An amazing aunt with an awesome personality. Her words are heard and her presence is felt when she enters a room. A strong, ambitious and courageous lady, she has shown me that’s it’s ok to move differently and to make your own decisions among so many other things. Standing before her and exchanging vows seems fitting as she represents all the strong black women in my family who’s shoulders I stand firmly on.
