Message from the children….

We the children of Daphne and Darrell are overwhelmed with joy as our parents begin their next stage of life. At this time we want to thank you all for sharing this experience with us. Our parents love story is like no other. This website is to keep you up to date on the progress of their wedding. We look forward to seeing you all on our family’s special day. Sincerely, Shonique, Ebony, Antoine, Shaquana, Sharrell and Chanel #always7

How it started

Darrell and Daphne met January 28, 1995, at 789 Macdonough St in Brooklyn, NY They were sitting on opposite sides of the room, throughout the evening their eyes would lock into one another periodically. Darrell, however was sitting next to a woman, so Daphne knew it would be just that, a few looks. Daphne left not even getting his name. The following day, Daphne received a call from Darrell’s cousin Michael saying “Bell wants to talk to you” . Once they were on the phone it was established that the woman sitting next to Darrell was in fact his sister Chiffon and the rest is history. Together they have 7 children, Latoya (preceded them in death), Shonique, Ebony, Antoine, Shaquana, Sharrell and Chanel. 13 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren, 1 bonus son Kysun and 1 bonus grandson. FROM THE COUPLE Over the years our love has been tested, but we have always found a way to beat the odds that were set against us. Each and everyone of you have played some sort of role in our relationship, which has made our bond that much stronger and got us to this day. We thank you all from the bottom of our hearts. Sincerely, Daphne and Darrell ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

In Recognition of Our Loved Ones

On this joyous day, we remember those who could not be with us, but we know their loving presence and spirit are with us today and always. Delores Edwards Mother of bride Helena Wiggins Mother of the groom Latoya Brown Daughter
