Wedding Party
Shacara Sneed
Maid of Honor
Deborah and I first met at a hair shop and ironically the following August we met again in high school. We have been rocking since. My favorite memory of ours is that she asked me to be her first born son Ismael godmother. But my newfound memory is that I got to experience her saying yes to the love her life. Fun fact I made their proposal go viral on TikTok (2.4M views)! I love that fact that no matter who Borah is around she is always authentically herself and that is why everyone loves her because her love language does not change. She is a queen truthfully and real.

Honestly, I don’t remember how we met. I was like 5. I barely even remember 3rd grade lol. My favorite memories are basically all of them. Every time we spend time together I always find something different to love about her. The brides best personality traits are the three C’s Caring, Confident & Considerate. She always checks up on and tends to others when she can. She is confident in herself & everything she does. And isn’t in anyway selfish. These are my favorite traits about her, because there are not many in the world like this and that is what sets her apart from everyone. Something I expect her to do at the wedding is cry, she claims she will not, but we all know the water works are coming!

We met on a double date at Wet Willie’s, and I asked her 3rd degree questions about EVERYTHING! We have clicked since then and became more like sisters! My favorite memory forever will be knowing she was pregnant before Rob did, both times! There are too many experiences to list but the two that stand out the most were our trip to Puerto Rico and being in the delivery room when Leilani was born. What I expect to see at the wedding is a LOT of singing and dancing, from both the Bride and Groom!

I am her favorite cousin on her mom’s side. We used to call each other Black and Blue, we always were told we look just alike that’s when she was 16. She used my id, and the bouncer was like, "Didn’t I just see you?" It was funny because people swear, we were twins. I love how even in front of others. They stay the same. Borah the serious one and Rob the Chill. They balance each other out. I wish them many more happiness and togetherness.

When our grandma brought you home from the hospital and forced you on me and said you was my cousin When you cut your hair so you could start wearing wigs like grandma Great mom
Jameka Laurent
Bridesmaid
We met at work. Quirky fact, our babies are exactly 1 year apart. I found out I was pregnant while on our trip to Colorado in 2019 for Rob’s birthday. My favorite characteristic is that you always do what you say you are going to do or not do. It’s rare to find that quality in people.
Jerel Mack
Best Man
I am his elder brother. Me and small Bert share a strange telepathy to where we know what each other is thinking or about to say. I aspire to be as calm and collected as him. He never is fazed by whatever life may throw his way. Because of this, I know he will be a great husband and leader for his family. I appreciate his sick and twisted sense of humor. As well as his morals and principles.

I have known stepdad Rob 8 years and in those eight years he has been the best father figure to me. He has protected me, guided me, and made sure I have everything I wanted and needed. In addition, he taught me how to be a man and he has gained my respect and trust over the years. I am thankful I have him to lean on and talk to and favorite moment with stepdad rob when he taught me how to throw a football and he is the funniest person I have ever met and the most respectful man I have ever seen. I expect him to cry tears of joy.

One of my favorite memories took place in 2001. I got jumped, went home hysterically crying and told Rob, we found one of them and re-enacted the baby boy scene when Jody and sweet P beat up the gitts. I will never forget bro had him chunk his chin up while I get my get back, at that point I knew bro had my back he was madder than me. For as Long as I can remember people always gravitated to Rob, his personality is contagious he is everyone’s favorite & I expect him to be a great husband & father like he is a big brother.

We met as kids; Bop is my cousin… but more of a lil brother Favorite kid memory would be doing various life threatening activities (sending him down flights of stairs); favorite adult memory flying him out to Vegas Puff Daddy style… no homo I love and hate how he will argue with you knowing damn well he is wrong. I expect Bop to be late, get drunk, sneak off for some gas, dance like Mary J Blige, and be outta commission to consummate the marriage
Cornelius McClinton
Groomsman
I do not remember when exactly, but Robert and I met when I was little through Borah my sister. We do not have a lot of memories together because he was always tryna get with my sister, but the one memory I have was when Rob told me he was ready to marry my sister and he showed me the ring. The one thing I love about Rob is he is a protector, and I know he will do whatever to protect his family which makes me happy to know that my sister and nieces and nephews will always be straight.
Remus Bulmer
Groomsman
Met in 9th Grade at Blake High School. My best memories were club hopping in Ybor City as teenagers and becoming college roommates in Tallahassee. Rob is one of the most loyal dudes I know. I know if I call, he will come. We can have reasonably grown man conversations, and we can strap up the sneakers and move furniture. I am expecting Rob to cry at the wedding!
Jarvis Donnell
Groomsman
We met from our grandma, wese cousins. My favorite memory is Atlanta...remember being woken up in the morning by our grandma saying, “which one of ya'll done peed in my tub?!” Me knowing dam well it wasn't me, looking confused, I turn to look at Bop, who says "well I peed in the middle of the night grandma, but I used the toilet", jitt clearly still sleep and pissed in the tub and then out came the extension cord! Traits I like about cuddo, he never let anybody treat em like a wittle guy, so he was never looked at as one, naw but fr tho, cuh stand on bidness and mean what he says and when fukin wit me, you give respect you get respect.
Leilani Wilson
Flower Girl
I am excited about being a flower girl for my parents! My favorite memory is when my parents show me the video of me repeating “Why you say no, Dad, mmoomm dad say nooo.” It was really funny. I expect to see my parents kiss a lot at the wedding.
Raeden Wilson
Ring Bearer
Hi, I’m Bean! I don’t know why I’m here or who some of you are, but if I give you a pound, you’re special! If I say “No”, I really mean it! If I show you my mad face, walk away! My job is to walk down the aisle and bring the rings. I’m pretty sure I’ll see my dad go straight to him and then just cry for my mom. If you see or hear me, just know you can’t help me, but pass me to my Nana Janice and she’ll save me! JUST DON'T GIVE ME TO MY MOM OR DAD!
Kamari Ricks
Flower Girl
I just love that I am the flower girl for my auntie! I love her a lot! I will do my best and help throw flowers, but I am more excited because I get to be with my favorite family member Leilani. I don't know what happens at weddings, but I know I will be smiling.
