Edith Harmon
Maid of Honor
Wow I’ve know this beautiful woman since high school. We go all the way back. In high school Edith was known for her love for Christ, and she let her light shine ever so bright. I can’t remember her ever doing anything wrong. It sounds crazy, but I’ve always seen her as perfect. In order to make myself better I used to try to follow her example. It was tough. E is another close friend that I can call for spiritual advice or if we just want to have girl talk. We can go a very long time without talking, and just pick up where we left off. She’s done so much for me, and she never even knew it. Continue to be the light that we need. Thank you sis.

Maid of Honor
My overly aggressive number one cousin. Feels more like my sister. I’ve been a fan of hers since I was a kid. I marveled at her beautiful personality, and how easily people took to her. She’s incredible. I love her perception of life. She makes the best of negative situations with a smile, and at the same time she has three different ways out of it, along with the next thing she wants to do. She’s ambitions and very hardworking. She juggles life while raising two beautiful girls. Superwoman. *She claims she can dance so I guess we’ll have to wait and see at the reception.

Groom's Sister. My only sister. This young lady means the absolute world to me. Watching her grow into the beautiful woman that she has become has been a pleasure. She keeps me straight and always has an encouraging word. Super young lady, proud to call her my sister. Wouldn’t have this day if she wasn’t apart of it

To my gorgeous cousin. Every memory of you makes me smile. From holding and playing with you as a baby to watching you try to handle being a teenager. Now you’re a beautiful young woman. You have always been so kind and sweet (except to Kendall lol) You’re an amazing person. You are beloved by everyone you meet, because they see the same things I see in you. Never stop being who you are. I love you little cousin. ❤️

Edward Scott
Best Man
Basketball is how me and this guy met. He runs an AAU organization called the SC Tigers which I became apart of years ago. The non- profit organization teaches kids discipline and fundamentals of not just the game of basketball but life as well. Over the years we have developed a true bond and I’ve learned so much from this guy and continue to learn everyday.
Mike Fano
Best Man
Dr. Fano!! This guy has been my friend since kindergarten. Growing up I spent just as much time with him and his family as I did my own. From basketball to paint balling passing cars we have been through it all together and although we live miles apart when we get together its like we are little kids all over again. Grateful to have true friend/brother like him in my corner!
George Coles, III
Groomsman
My big bro! This guy has taught me so much throughout my entire life. Honestly I’ve just learned from all of his butt cuttings and mistakes lol! On a serious note this guy is an amazing father and husband and I hope I can be half of what he has become. Super proud to have this guy in my corner and sharing in my day!

Big Hoss! My little BIG bro. This guy is the life of the party and always a joy to be around. He has been an extrodinary little bro and I’m elated to have him apart of my day.
Benjamin "Wes" Bancroft
Groomsman
WESSSSSSSS!!!!! Man since the day I met this guy we have been bro’s, We met when he was visiting my work as an operations apprentice and was super cool to be around. We began our friendship that day and we have been kicking it ever since. He is one of the most giving and humble persons I’ve met. Glad to call him my friend!
Joshua Taylor
Groomsman
My little cousin/Brother! This guy has spent the majority of his young life in the small town of Eastover kicking it with his big cousin. We have a common interest of working on automobiles. Early on it was more tearing things apart than it was putting them together. He is one of the best mechanics I know and at an early age I would let him work on anything and trust it would be right. Me and this guy have done it all together and continue to share our unique bond to this day. He has become great young man and father and I’m truly a proud big cousin/brother.

Started coaching this young man when he was 9. Saw back then that he would be really good on and off the court. He has become apart of my family and is the epitome of the term student athlete. The hardest working and hungry kid I have come across in a long time. Humble and hungry. Happy to have him share in the big day!
Savion Townsend
Usher
Slim Reaper! The epitome of hard work and focus is this young man here. I came to know this young man when at a very young age and have watched him grow into and upstanding young man. He has apart of my life for the last 10 years. I’ve seen him overcome obstacle after obstacle and flurish through those struggles. Definition of believing in yourself and staying focused on your goals of a better life. Proud of the young man he has become and honored to have him there on my special day!
