Brandon WoodlandBrandon Woodland

Best Man

Hi, I’m Brandon L. Woodland, but most people call me Mr. B. I’m a child of God, a husband, and a proud father of three amazing children. I was born in Philadelphia, PA, and raised in Baltimore, MD. I love spending time with my family, traveling, and listening to inspiring music. I’ve been an educator / Professional for over 17 years, and I also officiate men’s NCAA and high school basketball games. Cadet and I first crossed paths in the Nation’s Capital, both dedicated to improving the lives of people . We worked in different departments for a while, but always checked in on one another pushing each other toward growth and success. That bond quickly turned into a true brotherhood. We finally became teammates, and it was like Jordan and Pippen, Shaq and Kobe (R.I.P.) a dynamic duo from day one. From that moment, we weren’t just colleagues we became family. Our days together were filled with laughter, and working ,honestly, more laughter. I used to tell Cadet he was in the wrong career field because he’s a natural comedian. But as I gained wisdom, I realized is a gift from God when it comes to my profession . When you know your purpose, you prosper and together, we proved that by helping achieve the highest data testing in history. Need I say more? That’s my brother, Cadet.

Bridesmaid

Hi everyone! My name is Briana, and I’m from Gainesville, Florida. I currently work as a postpartum nurse, but one of my greatest joys outside of nursing has been the sisterhood I gained back in 2016 when I joined the lovely Lambda Rho Chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc. I was the baby of the line, and from day one, Etianna made sure I never felt alone. The times we shared truly was one of the best part of my undergrad experience. She even supported me through my nursing school journey, cheering me on when things got tough. That’s just the kind of sister and friend she is: loving, uplifting, and always there when you need her. Watching her step into this next chapter of her life brings me so much happiness. To Etianna and Aly, I wish you both a lifetime filled with love, blessings, and endless joy. May your union be as beautiful as the love you share.
