Our I-Do Crew

Noelle

Flower Girl

Lillie

Flower Girl

Luizer

Maid of Honor

The Bride's older sister she never had or asked for but is grateful to have. They are the modern-day Thelma and Louise, dancing partners in crime. Don't be surprised if you see them face-off on the dance floor!

Arthur

Best Man

Groom's younger brother and one of the calmest guys in the group, but when it comes to sports, you will hear him roar. Although the Bride is older, he claims he is gaining a little sister through this union. Sibling rivalry already?

Takara

Bridesmaid

The Bride's younger cousin, who is now a college student. She terrorized the Bride during her toddlerhood with endless hours of listening to Justin Beiber. You may catch them on the dance floor lip-syncing when a Justin Bieber song comes on.

Alex

Groomsman

The Groom's younger cousin, who some may know as "Baby Ngure". He is the youngest, most humble and respectful member of the group. Sadly, Alex endured years of Micheal Jordon haircuts (Kiharas) at the hands of the Groom. Thankfully, Alex was his only victim as the Groom has now retired his clippers.

Stella

Bridesmaid

The Bride had always been the youngest in the bunch until Stella came around. Call it last-born privilege but know that the Bride did not make the assimilation easy for her. They soon discovered their love language is food and sharing memes; the rest is history. You can always catch them sharing a meal and some laughs.

Lee

Groomsman

The Bride's cousin, a bonus big brother, has been at her side since the beginning and is partly responsible for getting her down the aisle. The group's peacemaker, go-to person. Who effortlessly puts out fires and thrives when there is peace amongst us.

Naomi

Bridesmaid

The Bride and Naomi know the battlefield of growing up around big brothers. Praise God that with this union, they will bring a balance to this testosterone-infested family and have a fighting chance for feminism. Naomi has been instrumental in making this union possible.

Paul

Groomsman

The Bride's older brother is cool, calm and collected but fiercely protective over his family.  He loves anything BLAQK and uplifting the community. The sibling rivalry was real, and the Bride is on pins and needles for his speech, but if he remembers correctly, she won many if not ALL of their childhood fights.

Neema

Bridesmaid

The Groom's cousin and soon-to-be Dr. Kamau. The accountability queen and a friend that everyone needs in their life. Neema is passionate and will fiercely come to your defense but also let you know when you are wrong. You can always catch Neema and the Groom debating on something or on the dance floor with the Bride.

David

Groomsman

The Groom's younger cousin, who we all think is an older man trapped in a young man's body. He is mature and kind beyond his years. He is the go-getter of the group, and if you are in a "phone a friend" situation, he would be the person to call.

Kayla

Bridesmaid

Welcome to the "Kay and Flo Show." established during their high school years. Kayla is the Bride's twin who (if they both tell it) were separated at birth and shipped to two different continents. Best friends since they shared a dorm in college, and the journey continues into the Bride's new chapter.

Winston

Groomsman

A decade of friendship that started at a church youth function. Winston and the Groom have shared many memories during their singlehood, and I look forward to creating new ones as they step into their new chapter - Husbandhood.

Christine

Bridesmaid

A friend to the Groom and a role model to the Bride. She is the Bride's google search engine for all things life. Christine's wisdom and guidance have been essential to this union and will continue to be for many years.

Samuel

Groomsman

The honorary best man. The Groom and Samuel became immediate friends once he moved to Birmingham over a decade ago and later found out that their grandfathers were best friends. It’s safe to say this friendship will last longer than denture glue.

Marylynne

Bridesmaid

Without fact-checking, the Bride and Marylynne coined the term "Braidmaids" because of black girl magic and at the time, marriage wasn't the qualification. The perfect example of a quality, low-maintenance friendship. Please allow a minimum of one hour when you see them catching up. She held the Bride's hand from the start of her relationship with the Groom and spoke life into their union.

Vincent

Groomsman

Quality over quantity when it comes to his friendship with the Groom. They have not known each other for decades like the other guys, but by doing business together, you get to value a friendship much faster. The funniest one in the group, and it wouldn't be a party without him.

Hellen

Bridesmaid

From crazy adolescence, and teenage drama to standing by each other during their wedding unions. The friendship between Hellen and the Bride has persevered through all the odds. A cousin to the Groom and a prayerful, caring friend to both.

John

Groomsman

Older cousin to the Groom and a partner in mischief over the years. They share a love for cars and all things fast and furious. He trail-blazed in the chapters of marriage and fatherhood. The Groom is looking forward to getting the cheat codes on those chapters.

Eva

Bridesmaid

We highly doubt that she is not anyone's cup of tea. The most welcoming spirit greets you with a polite smile every time. Eva is a Soror of Delta Sigma Theta, a sorority the Bride has always wanted to join and now gets to live vicariously through her.

Stephen

Groomsman

The earliest memory the Groom has of Kiguru is him dissecting insects for sport as a child. You will realize that Denis is a big brother to many, which also subjects them to a lifetime of being made fun of. The answer is no, he did not grow up to be an entomologist but he is successful in his field, and the couple couldn’t be more proud of his ambition.

Phyllis

Bridesmaid

With almost 20 years of sisterhood with the Bride, Phyllis had front row seats from the beginning of the Bride and Groom's relationship. She stood by the Bride's side and encouraged her through the hardships she faced in life and at the beginning of their relationship. The Bride's sister in mischief, adventure and heartiest laughs.

Collins

Groomsman

The Groom's younger cousin and the guy he can always depend on. Collins was once an aspiring dancer, but thanks to the Groom, that dream was shattered. The couple hopes to revive this dream on the dance floor during their special day.

Junior

Groomsman

Co-founder of "Hot Ngima ENT", a music production company. Luckily for all of us, they have not produced any mainstream artists. Jr. and the Groom have been friends since the first day of their Senior year in high school. Their friendship has withstood the test of time.
