Mariel & Jarrett
The Crew
AyKeA D. Gamble
Maid of Honor
WOW!! Where do I begin with my friendship with "Keke"? We have known each other since we were little little girls. I am talking about same daycare little. She invited me to her birthday party one year and it happened she lived in the same neighborhood as me. Go figure!! Ever since then we have been best friends. She is Amir's Godmother and I wouldn't trade her for the world. I know that she would go to war for Amir and I and wouldn't let anything happen to neither one of us.
Talibdeen I. McClain
Best Man
Although Ibn is my biological brother, I call him my Arab brother because of his name. He is the youngest out of all of us but was the first to get married out of the pact. He has really held up to being the youngest brother because he used to cry a lot. He will make you laugh even if you don't want to because he stays with the jokes. He gave me my beautiful niece Selene.
Regina D. Williams
Matron of Honor
We have been around each other since we were babies. We grew up in the same church, went to high school together and as the years have gone by she has become my sister. We speak everyday. Celebrate our birthday's together and SPS (insider). You know when you can look at someone and don't have to say a word but you bust out laughing? That explains our relationship. She entrusted me to plan her wedding to Lamont back in September 2018 which made her a Williams!!
Brentton Harrison
Groomsman
One of the Tres Amigos, brother from another mother, "Brosin" (cousin turned brother). He is the only guy that I know who can eat in his sleep and blow out 50 candles with one breath. We have been through a lot and have always been there for each other. I love him very much and can count on a good laugh every time we talk.
Tina D. Webb
Bridesmaid
That is right, Tina is the twin of Regina but she is older. Tina is the more reserved and quiet one out of the trio. She is probably the voice of reason for us. The one that is going to give the advice, almost like the calm to the storm because Regina and I are always ready to act instead of thinking. She might seem shy but once you get to know her she is a great sister to have. She has no problem expressing her feelings about what she likes, doesn't and I think that is why we mesh so well.
Justin Dawson
Groomsman
Justin is my biological brother, second to the last. He is the only brother that screams when we play fight and only one that speaks fluent Chinese. When in doubt, when you need help, he's there. I love this dude! He gave me my nephew Carter.
Veronica C. Hairston
Bridesmaid
My second "light bright cousin"! You would think that she was in the military by what comes out of her mouth. haha. She is my only first girl cousin on my mother's side of the family and it is GREAT!! We had nobody else to talk to but boys so of course we would gang up on them. She was always a pain when we were younger and still is, but I wouldn't have it any other way. She is the one that I have to tell "be nice" before meeting someone. I think she just gets me. She has no problem speaking her mind and yours as well.
Terek L. Meggett
Groomsman
Terek and I met a few years ago while we were working together at Dominos. He ended up leaving that job but when I got the job at the high school, he was working there and I didn't know it. He keeps me laughing day to day. Terek speaks his mind but has one of the biggest hearts. When I asked him to be in my wedding, he said "he was honored". He might be tall but he is a gentle giant. Glad he is able to share this day with us.
Nya K. Williams
Bridesmaid
Nya Korigan "baby love" is my first niece. She stole my heart 20 years ago and is so spoiled. If you ask her, she will say that she is my daughter and people believe her because we look so much alike. I have watched her grow and mature and as she keeps blossoming she keeps making me a proud aunt. She is one of the most opinionated and dramatic people I know but those characteristics are going to be so useful in years to come.
Amir S. Williams
Groomsman
My Oompa, my one and only child that I birthed! He is one of the most free spirited kids I know. He loves to help, loves to talk and doesn't meet a stranger. He is truly my child. I look at him and say wow, he is just like me! He loves basketball, video games and anything related to music. I know that he will be taller than me one day because he already stands at almost 5'9. A few years ago, I asked Amir if I could date? He asked me "like get married?" I told him, not just yet but hopefully that is what it will lead to. He told me he thought I should date and was fine with it just as long as I was happy. Amir has always been my protector and my baby. He let's you know if he doesn't want you bothering me or anyone in his family. I pray he keeps that protecting and caring trait.
