Angelique & Cornelius
Wedding Party
Angela
Matron of Honor
Angela and Angelique became friends in a very interesting way. It takes Angela to tell the two versions of it. Long story short, they met while Angelique was pregnant with Anthony Jr. That’s how they keep track of how long the shenanigans have been going. True frick and frack best friends who will have a karaoke party any day/night of the week. Angie is the voice of reason in situations for Angelique and Angelique is the calm to Angie’s storm when she’s having a moment. Angela and Angelique know that they have a mutual safe place of love in one another for life.
Brittany
Maid of Honor
Sister cousin. Brittany and Angelique’s grandmother’s were sisters. Brittany is the younger sister Angelique never had. Whilst they have known each other all of Brittany’s life, they became closer after Brittany returned home from college and became the favorite cousin/aunt/social worker (joke) of Angelique’s babies.
Jada
Maid of Honor
Angelique has known Jada all of her life. She is the reason Angelique is a mom, as she is her first born. An unbreakable mother daughter bond. These two can glance at the other and read one another’s mind without saying a word.
Aimee
Bridesmaid
Aimee and Angelique met a few years ago during their initiation into the first African-American sorority, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated. Aimee and Angelique are both thrill seekers and both love to have FUN! Skee-Wee!

Crystal
Bridesmaid

Lisa
Bridesmaid
Lisa and Angelique became sisterfriends while completing their accelerated master’s degree program at DePaul University. Words are enough to capture the treasure in friendship that Lisa and Angelique discovered in one another. Sometimes words are not needed in their communication because they are able to almost read the other’s mind!
Monique
Bridesmaid
Monique and Angelique met on active duty while stationed in Meridian, Mississippi at Naval Education & Training Center. Believe it or not, Monique was a military police officer! Angelique adopted Monique’s daughter, Alexia as her godchild. When Angelique lost her biological father in 2010, Monique was a strong support when Angelique did not even know that she needed it. A ride or die friend always at the ready for whatever no matter the YEAR!
Mychelle
Bridesmaid
Mychelle (pronounced MY-KELL) and Angelique met while stationed at neighboring air squadrons in Meridian, Mississippi many moons ago. Over the years, they grew closer through the most transparent and deepest conversations and found a safe space in the other’s friendship. Angelique considers her friendship with Mychelle as one of the most authentic friendships because when the two of them talk, nothing is off limits or sugar coated.
Sabrina
Bridesmaid
Sabrina and Angelique or "Missy" as Sabrina calls her have known each other all of Sabrina’s life. Sabrina’s father and Angelique’s mother were siblings. As these two were not afforded the play opportunities while growing up in Baltimore, they keep in touch regularly as adults.
Sharhi
Bridesmaid
Angelique and Sharhi met through the kid’s daycare because Sharhi was both of the kid’s preschool teachers at some point. Sharhi and Angelique became friends through their daily conversations when she picked up the kids.

The friendship of Sharhi and Angelique spans almost two decades and it is an unbreakable bond of love and mutual respect.
