Anton & Felecia
Wedding Party
Greg Douglas
Best Man
My best man Gregory Douglas AKA GD. Greg has been like a brother dad to most of my life. This dude loved me for no reason, that’s why I will always love this brother. In my younger years when I made knuckle headed moves he stood by my side and never judged me. When I figured out what I wanted to do in life he paid my tuition and sent me to school and set me on the right path and is always teaching me. We met when I was 13yrs old and he was 19yrs old, we grew into manhood together. He taught me how to tie a tie. We have cried together but more than that we have truly laughed together, man have we laughed together at everything and everybody. My brother showed me how conduct myself in every arena. I am super honored that has chosen to stand next to me on the biggest day of my life.
Amanda Berry
Maid of Honor
Amanda Berry is my best friend. We met at work and have been inseparable ever since. She is one of few in my life that I can call on for any and everything- especially valuable advice and guidance and impeccable fashion. I can always count on Amanda to be the most glammed at all times, even at work.
Ashley Boone
Bridesmaid
The best daughter a mother could ever ask for (my only daughter LOL!). She is definitely my minni-me when it comes to all things cute, and fashion-just like her momma-if she wants it, she's gonna get it. My baby girl has the biggest heart ever. She'll help you no matter what. She is the most dependable yet indecisive person you'll ever meet. That's what makes her so special. I am so excited to spend this moment with her right by my side!!!
Edward Guck
Groomsman
My man Eddy G, AKA Malarkey, that’s his and Felecia’s name for each other. This dude has truly been my brotha from anotha. Ed has been my friend since 98’, we have done some of everything together and when I say everything, I mean ERTHNG. We have worked together for several years traveled together, one of our funniest trips is when we to Houston to see Greg Douglas, man we had the best time of our lives (I don’t want no whatabuger), he and Greg will tell you the story, so while you’re at the resort be sure to ask. I have had some good times with this dude, and I am honored that he too will stand by my side on my big day.
Lamont Trumbo
Groomsman
My brother AKA Punchy, AKA uncle Punchy. This dude loves me like I love him. I am so proud of this guy and what he has turned out to be. Let me say this, anything I ask my brother for he will do it for me. We have been through everything together; he calls me when hasn’t heard from me in a while. He says to me hey man when are coming over, and I’ll say for what and he says because I want to see my brother. My brother also is one the best grillers I know (I still think I’m better, don’t tell him that I said that) and if you have an event and you want the music to right, he and his wife will turn that shit out.
Nicole Cook
Bridesmaid
The most anal of the crew. She is no nonsense. All things financial are accounted for and itemized to the T. She gone save them coins... :-) As a young teen EVERYTHING gave her a headache.. Nicole you want some peanut butter or maybe some ramen noodles-- Nope it all gave her a headache. Little did she know, she was giving us all a headache. Now as a momma of 2 little princesses, and a newlywed herself, I am impressed at her ability to maintain it all even with the headaches. (Heheehe).
Raygne Parker
Bridesmaid
My little sister. She is a social butterfly that LOVES to hug. As one of the little sisters growing up she was "hell oh wheels." But now, as an adult, she is all about getting her money and being responsible. I am so PROUD of her!
Kendra Parker
Bridesmaid
The sister that is always cool, calm and collected. One that loves a challenge and is always stuck doing about 30 different things all at once. Nothing ruffles her feathers. Even when she is mad, her mentality is- it'll be ok. When every one else is in panic mode her mentality remains- it'll be ok. She is a fulltime single mother of 2; a lawyer- by day; a law professor-by night; and sometime between day and night she spends her time: in the gym; getting things done as a newly appointed board member; and at church just about every day of the week. She stays on top of it, and is the perfect balance to us all.
Kelvin Cook
Groomsman
Nicole brought this dude in my life about 6 yrs ago. We hit it off right away. One of our 1st encounters is when he came to MN and we snuck off and went to the bar behind Nicole’s back, anybody that knows Nicole knows that she is very frugal and she was already on his ass about spending money. Well when she and Felecia got back to our place and she realized that he wasn’t there, his phone started buzzing like crazy, I said are you going to answer that, he said hell naw, I’m the man in this relationship and he was-at least until we got back to the house where Nicole and Felecia showed us who was really in charge. I am happy to have this guy stand with me as I join this family.
Qale Laird
Groomsman
My groomsman Qale Laird my son AKA my best friend in this entire world, AKA Tooka Da Kang. It has been a true joy to watch this kid go from being my baby to a grown man. This kid truly knows how to manage his parent. One quick story, he has always been my baby until 5yrs ago this little dude name Abel came along but that’s a different story, but anyway when Qale was 2 or 3yrs old I was yelling at my oldest son about something and I mean going off, cursing the whole nine. When I took a pause from my rant, out of nowhere this little baby says I love you daddy, all I could do was look back at him and laugh and say I love you too man. His thought was I know how to handle this dude.
