Parker and Bria met in 2012 as students at Morehouse and Spelman, two neighboring schools at the heart of the AUC. Their friendship grew naturally, lasting well beyond graduation, woven into the fabric of their lives. It wasn’t until the fall of 2020 that something shifted. A familiar presence became something more, and what had always been easy between them deepened into love. Since then, they’ve been inseparable. Parker proposed in the French Quarter of New Orleans, a quiet moment in the middle of a city alive with music and history. It was the start of something new, but it never felt like a beginning—only the next step in a story that had been unfolding all along. Now, they look forward to a lifetime of love, laughter, and everything in between.
