Kourtney WalterKourtney Walter
Maid of Honor
My oldest sister and keeper of all my deepest secrets! Growing up, everyone thought we were twins or I was addressed as "little Kourtney". As a child I hated it, but as an adult, I take it as an honor. There is no one I'd rather have standing next to me as I marry the most amazing man in the world. We laugh together, cry together, and most importantly we grow together. Sister, thank you for being exactly who you are and loving me the unconditionally way you do!
Corey WinstonCorey Winston
Best Man
Corey, one of my younger brothers, is always ready to share his thoughts honestly and with a bit of flair! With his sharp wit and clever wordplay, our conversations are always lively. I truly cherish the spirited discussions and playful debates he initiates with our siblings and parents—they really do keep things interesting! There’s never a dull moment when he's around! Plus, he's happily married and is the proud dad of two beautiful daughters, which just adds to the joy he brings to our family.
Jasmine HardemanJasmine Hardeman
Matron of Honor
I met Jasmine while attending The Net Church many years ago! I like to call her my crying friend lol! We've had many adventures together. She's my prayer partner and a special part of my soul. There is no value in the support she's shown me over the years. The conversations that we have could truly be turned into a novel. Jaz, I want you to know that I will always be here for you and there is nothing that could end this friendship. I love you so much, girl! Here's to more life!
Tim WinstonTim Winston
Groomsman
Timothy is my wonderful little brother and Corey’s twin! He has a remarkable talent for playing the saxophone and can charm anyone into wanting to buy something without them even realizing it. Whenever Tim and Corey hang out, you can bet there will be side-splitting laughter for hours!
Tomisha JacksonTomisha Jackson
Bridesmaid
Missy is my cousin, yet she feels more like my sister. We spent our childhood together flowing between 1824 and 10527. Our mothers were sisters and best friends. She transitioned in 2007, and we miss her every day! Missy is the most reliable and trustworthy person one could know. She supports us just like her mother did during our younger years. She knows when I'm putting on a good face more than anyone. I love you, sister! Thank you for being tough on me when I needed it the most.

I've had the pleasure of knowing this guy for over eight years now, and he's been an incredible friend whenever I needed a break to chat over drinks. He's supported me countless times! He might choose to share some of our memorable stories from those tougher days and I cherish those moments. He's happily married and has two adorable kiddos!
Courtney YoungbloodCourtney Youngblood
Bridesmaid
My Courtney has been with me since Millwood Elementary. If there is anyone that I know will read me my rights with love, it's her. Courtney witnessed me survive a very difficult time in my life and she was right there through every hurdle. I can't thank her enough for holding me up and being one of my favorite people in the world! She is a general but in a great way. Thank you my dear friend for EVERYTHING you've helped me through in life. God knew exactly what he was doing when he made us friends! I love you so much, friend!
Desmond JohnsonDesmond Johnson
Groomsman
Oh, my brother! I can't express how much I've learned from him! He’s shared with me countless insights about navigating relationships, life, and raising kids. Every time we get together, it’s such a wonderful experience! He truly takes fantastic care of his wife and kids, and I often tell him that when I grow up, I aspire to be just like him! He always laughs and says, "Naw, bro, be better!" He’s definitely the big brother I never had, and he’s blessed with a loving wife and three amazing kids!
Demetri CrawfordDemetri Crawford
Bridesmaid
Demetri (Mimi) is my best friend and someone I hold close to my heart! Life leads you through many trials and sometimes in different directions. No matter how far apart we are, our bond will always be strong. I proudly consider myself her biggest headache, and she loves it! My friend has been a shoulder to lean on many times, and I know this next chapter in both our lives will be amazing! Congrats on your engagement, friend! I love you to the ends of the earth and beyond!
Levi GarrettLevi Garrett
Groomsman
I've had the pleasure of knowing Levi for about five years now, and he truly stands out as one of the most solid guys I've met outside the military. It’s always great to head into work knowing I’ll get to spend some time with him. Whenever we're together, we can't help but stumble upon the most amusing things — it makes the workday fly by in no time! Levi is happily married and has three wonderful kids.
Jekia HarrisonJekia Harrison
Bridesmaid
Jekia (Kia Bia) was my very first friend and later became my sister! She has given me love, support, shelter, and motivation our entire lives. I knew she would be by my side on my wedding day many years ago. Watching her navigate through Oklahoma is truly a beautiful thing to witness. Y'all watch out because SHE WILL be our next House Representative for District 97! I am so proud of you, sister girl. Your support for me and our future does not go unnoticed. Thank you for loving me! I would never want to do life without you in my corner.

Gio is such a wonderfully put-together little brother! I've always admired his strong work ethic and the great friend he is. Having known Giovanni for most of his life, I can say he’s truly special. He’s soon married and has a beautiful little girl who brings him so much joy!

Lilli gave me the honorable title of Mom! Majority of our time together, it was just us. She taught me sacrifice, patience, and unconditional love. I am so blessed to be her mom. She’s growing up to be such a beautiful and intelligent young lady.

CJ is the oldest of our group! He’ll be 15 in a couple months, a freshman in high school and is truly the kindest young man you’d have the honor to know. He’s the perfect protector over all his younger siblings and I enjoy watching him mature. Never thought I’d have a son and now I have two!
