Groom
I was born on November 15, 1984 at Saint Josephs Hospital in Fort Wayne, Indiana. I am very dedicated to my career and my family. My 4 kids are what have made me the man I am today. Makhi ( Step-Son and Best Man) has given me an early training on what teenage years mean when raising children luckily he's a pretty good kid. I love being a father and can't wait for the years to come. On September 9, 2018 I will be marrying my best friend.
Bride
I was born February 25, 1982 at Thunderbird Hospital in Glendale, Arizona. I have been blessed with 4 amazing children and motherhood is truly my first love. I have never loved anyone the way I love Corey! He is the first one in my life to accept me for who I am and also accept my son into his life and treat him as his own. On September 9, 2018 I will be marrying my best friend.
Best Man
To much to say about this one and not enough space! He was a 36 hour birth and came into this world December 1, 1999. I thank God everyday for giving me Makhi. He is my oldest son. This is the one who empowered me to be who I am. He has one of the most generous and loving hearts. He is my strength and always made me push myself to do better because I always wanted him to have the best. I am so proud of him and know he will do amazing big things in life. Yes he is 18 however he will always be my little big boy and always hold a very very special part of me. I love you more then you will ever know and cant wait to see you standing as the BEST man on this very special day! I couldn't and wouldn't do it without your support and approval. I love you forever son.
Matron of Honor
I knew the second I met her that there was something about her I needed in my life. Turns out it was just her I needed........This chick is my ride or die for life. She is truly my best friend! We met at Camelback Ford over 6 years ago and have clicked ever since. I am confident we will be 2 grumpy old ladies calling to check on one another when that time comes. However, for now we don't see each other or talk enough at times with our busy lives but we both know at the end of the day if one of us is in need the other is there! I love you for life!!
Maid of Honor
This is my beautiful little sister. We have been through so much together and I wouldn't want it any other way. Not only is she one of my best friends, but she gave me my nephew Greyson! He and I share an unbreakable bond and I thank her for every piece of that. We have had so many laughs, trips, and amazing times even just sitting home together. We both laugh so hard together at our amazing jokes because we think we are so funny even though nobody else does.....Her favorite joke is knock knock... who's there.....broken pencil....broken pencil who? ... nevermind its pointless! Hahaha. See told ya! Breanna is beautiful, caring and always try's to see the best in people. I'm so thankful to have her standing by me on one of the most important days of my life! Love you so much Nana!
Groomsman
This kid can light up a room just with his smile. He is the nephew of Corey and just a great kid! The kids absolutely love when he comes to visit, he is so amazing with them all. What do I love about him? Absolutley everything! When he comes to visit he loves to go swimming and shopping. Last visit the pool was still cold but he went in anyway and was so excited to jump in he forgot his phone in his pocket....uh oh! I love to just sit and talk with him as he is such a smart kid! I wish he lived closer so he could come over so much more. I’m so excited to have you as a part of our wedding as you are so important and loved so much by both of us! We love you Carion....
Bridesmaid
My sister Jessica will be one of my special bridesmaids on my very special day.! Yes we are sisters we have our ups and downs and even sometimes our sideways. No matter which direction we’re going I will always be there for her and I know she will be there for me. She has been a big part of my life and a big part of my kiddos life. I would be lost without her and I appreciate her in so many ways. You will never know how much I truly do love you because words can explain. We have a special bond that one understands. Thank you for being there next to me on my big exciting day... I wouldn’t want it any other way. I love you so much!
Groomsman
Camps Camps he’s our man if he can’t do it Andrea can. We both met David through work and I must say he’s a pretty great guy! He is definitely a guy that you’re happy your husband has as a friend. He and Corey have a lot in common as they both work way more than we wish they did. Makes it hard to get together at times but when we do it’s always a blast. We went to Florida with David and his wife and had a blast at universal studios! You should’ve seen the boys faces on the roller coasters oh wait I have pictures maybe I should post them...absolutely hilarious. David is a great father and husband. I am thankful Corey has you standing by his side through life and in our wedding. You and your family are amazing and we are blessed to have you guys as friends. Thank you so much for everything!
Bridesmaid
Vanessa Vanessa..... she is the girlfriend to my son Makhi 👍 She definitely has a special place in my heart. She’s beautiful and makes my son happy. She was one of the quietest people I have ever met and never really said too much, However when she got comfortable she started to open up and I love the flower she has bloomed into! She has such a sweet heart and I’m so thankful she will be next to me to celebrate such a big day. I love the bond we have started and can’t wait for it to bloom into something even better. Her family is amazing and I am so thankful to have them and Vanessa as a part of our family now! I love you Vanessa.....
Groomsman
Nathan is my big brother. We have been through so much together. He always tried to protect all of us girls and be the man of the house. Only a brother can love you like a father but annoy you like a sister. I mean that in the best way. He has an unconditional way of loving with only the best intentions....if I understood that years ago it could have avoided a few arguments in life. However, I would not change a thing if I could. I know I can call him anytime about anything and he would do whatever he could to help me or any of of our family. He has a huge heart full of love! I'm so thankful you will be standing by my soon to be hubby to support us on one of the biggest and best days ever....and thank you for being such a great big brother. I love you Bubby!
Bridesmaid
Sam is my sister-in-law. She is a blast to be around. She will always make you laugh and always has a smile on her face. She has a free spirit about her that not too many are blessed with. We have not been able to spend as much time together as I would like since she has married my brother as I have been pregnant and had kid after kid and stayed very very busy the last 3 years! LOL. However when we’re together it’s always a great time and I can’t wait to spend this time together and build an even stronger bond. I am proud to have you standing next to me Sam on such an important day....... and I am proud to say you’re my sister-in-law. Love you so much!
Groomsman
Good old uncle Ricky! What would we do without you? We love when uncle Ricky comes to visit. He has a way with the little ones. They all love and adore him so much especially the girls. Maybe it’s because he’s always feeding them or maybe it’s just his good bear hugs. Either way everyone’s excited when they hear uncle Ricky is here. Thank you so much for everything you do for us and even just talking to me when I need it.... you are definitely a huge part of our family and I’m very thankful to have you in each and every one of our lives. So happy to have you as a part of our special day .... We love you uncle Ricky even though you give the kids everything they want. It’s OK to say no. ....... just kidding! Love you so much.
Bridesmaid
Paige has always been just like a little sister to me. I feel like she has been in my life forever. Me being 9 years older then her and my sister made me the getaway place for them both. We became the 3 that everyone knew were always together. We have supported each other during some of the roughest and best times so far. Paige is the girl who is always there when you need her! We are all sisters and that means we sometimes have distance but no matter what or how long we go we always find out way back. I couldn’t imagine her not being by side on this very special day as she is and will always be a little sister to me! I love you so much Paige and thank you for being by my side and supporting me on such an important day!
Bridesmaid
The sister of the groom.... mama #2! She took care of Corey all the time when Ora was away at work. I’ve only heard the stories but I can tell you between Candy and her friends they spoiled my soon to be hubby very much. So much that now I still have to clean up after him. Candy is an amazing mom to two very handsome young men. Even though we’ve only had a few chances to hang out so far we have made the best out of the time we had. I look forward to all the years and memories ahead. Thank you for coming all the way here to stand by my side and support us during one of the biggest days of our lives. We love you Candy!
Ring Bearer
This little man holds a very special place in my heart. I was by my sister side the whole time she was pregnant with him and by her side the day he came into this world. I cut his umbilical cord and I stayed in the hospital with him the whole time..... he was such an amazing baby! I would take him throughout the night so my sister could get some sleep or maybe because I just loved his cuddles. My sister has done an amazing job raising him. He is so smart and loving and I wouldn’t trade him for the world... It is so important that he understands what he means to me and that him being my ring bearer on this special day makes me one happy Auntie!! You are going to be one handsome stud. I love you Greyson!
Flower Girl
She was born on April 24, 2015. Thats right she is 3 already! She is the most beautiful little girl..(Just wait daddy) We brought her in this world with an all natural no epidural birth! She is a birth I promise I will never forget but the moment we laid eyes on her it made every moment worth it all. She is definitely a mommas girl but we all know that could change anytime! She is one of the sweetest little girls alive. However, she does have her moments when she needs her alone time just like her daddy. She is so smart and beautiful and she is our forever princess. We are so happy we were blessed with her as she has changed our lives! I can't wait to see you all dressed in your pretty dress and walk down the isle to see Mommy and Daddy get married. We Love you so much Poo Poo!!
Prince
Our baby boy was born on November 18, 2016. He is one minute older then his baby sister. He gave me an unforgettable pregnancy unlike anything I never thought I would go through in life. However, he is here and healthy as can be. He brings us so much joy and did I tell you he's such a mommas boy!!! I Love It.. He loves to climb and jump off things...Imagine that he is just like his dad! I can't wait for the years of fun coming up and watching him grow. His smile is priceless, his hugs are amazing, his kisses are the sweetest, and his cuddles are so embracing. We are so glad he is ours! Love you Bubba
Princess
She was born November 18, 2016. Just one minute after her brother. That officially makes her our youngest and our baby girl! We call her Sissy. She is definetly a daddy girl! She lights up every time she hears his voice and runs to him whenever he walks in the door. Every morning she looks in our bed to see if he is here. She is attached to his hip! She also gave us a run after delivery of scares however she is a healthy chunky little thing and I wouldn't trade her for the world. She is the sweetest but won't let the others push her around. She's a tough little butterball. She is a little more fearful then the others.....She lets them do it first then maybe she will try it! I love her smiles and all her hugs. She is such a blessing to us! I love you so much Sissy!
Father of the Bride
There is no other man in this world that will ever take my father’s place. I am a daddy‘s girl to the fullest and am very proud of it! He has taught me so much and made me this somewhat tomboy I am today. He rolled through the punches of getting me through my teen years... He never gave up on me and always pushed me to see my potential in life. Since Corey works so much he comes down and does my daddy do list for me around the house..... I don’t know what I would do without him! He’s an amazing dad and grandpa and I am just so blessed he is my father. I love you dad and I hope you know that having you walk me down the isle to the man I love so much is going to make me the happiest girl alive...... however I will always be daddy‘s little girl. Love you dad!
Mother of the Bride
I love my mother more then any words will ever say. She gave me life but on top of that was just an exceptional mom and roll model. She taught us so much.... how to never give up, how to smile through the hard times, and how to love unconditionally. We didn’t always have everything growing up as far as material things go, however we had it all when it came to family, love, teamwork, and morals. I thank you for all of that mom.... Because of you we are who we are today and because of you I am the mother I am today. I am proud to say you’re my mother and I am so blessed that you will be there to share one of the most important days of my life with us. Thank you so much for helping me every step of this wedding. I don’t know what I would do without you. I Love you so much mom.
Father of the Groom
Without you there could be no Corey..... without Corey I would have never experienced true love. So I am forever grateful to you for giving me him. I am thankful to have you in our lives and as my father-in-law. You’re an amazing Papa and my kids absolutely adore you. We both have a love for cars and ice cream. That’s why I think we get along so well and even though we only get five days a year usually together. I’m thankful for every single one of those and look forward to so many more. Thank you for everything you do for us! We are blessed to have you apart of our lives and be able to share this very special day with you. Love you so much.
Mother of the Groom
You are an amazing mother, friend, and grandma. I am so thankful to have her as my mother-in-law for so many reasons. 1. She brought the most handsome man ever into this world for me to marry...2. She has done so much to help me with the kids when she comes to visit...3. Her fried chicken and beans AMAZING.... 4. I Listen to all the stories about other women can’t stand having there mother-in-law come stay for weeks at a time and I feel the complete opposite. Ora at one point stayed with me for two months to help me with the kids not one time did I wish she wasn’t here. Instead I cried because I didn’t want her to go. She is one of the most kindest and giving people I have ever met. Thank you for always being there for us. Did I mention Corey is such a mommas boy... We love you so MUCH!
