KEWANNA & JEFFREY
Wedding Party
BETTY RIVAS
Maid of Honor
Betty and I met in middle school and didn't know that we lived so close together. From that moment on we have been the best of friends. From getting in trouble together as young girls to growing up and being apart of each other's greatest moments. She has always been a true friend and I am excited to continuously create more great times with her.
KRASNER FRANCOIS
Best Man
Kras is my ace! Met the guy back in 5th grade! Part of the park crew growing up! Basketball, shopping for gear, and plans for the future was always the game plan. He’s been there throughout my life like a brother. It’s a honor to have him as my best man!
SHAYLAH BOYD
Bridesmaid
My dear youngest sister Shaylah has been a pivotal person in my life. Although, we are 11 years apart, our relationship has blossomed. I am so proud of her life’s accomplishments and I can’t wait to see her continue to become the woman she is destined to be.
KEY'AZIAH CASEY
Bridesmaid
Key’aziah is my first sister and we have been apart of each others lives since she was a baby. We have grown our bond in our adulthood. We have so much in common but yet so different. She has grown into a wonderful young woman and I can not wait to be a apart of her future endeavors.
KESHIA CRAFT
Bridesmaid
When we were younger I would always want to go to my cousin's home. The summers were spent with her and I having great times. She has been there from day one and she is one I can count on. When the two of us are together, we were bound to act up and have a little fun.
SIEBIDI MILLS
Bridesmaid
Siebidi has been one of my favorite cousins since we were kids. I spent so much time at her house as a child. At times we were even dressed as twins. She is more of a bonus sister.
KA'ZIAH CASEY
Bridesmaid
Ka’ziah is such a sweetheart and I can not believe how much she has grown. Although she is my younger cousin…she might as well be a little sis. My children look to her as an aunt. Ka’ziah has been there, especially for my daughters. I can almost bet that Rhyan and Laila would choose to spend time with her, more than me lol.
TANESHA WARREN
Bridesmaid
Although Tanesha is Jeff’s best friend, she has also become one of my great friends as well. My Virgo sister and I always are on the same frequencies. She is also the godmother of Jeff Jr. and the other children love her just the same. I am happy to call her my friend.
TAZIYANA BUTLER
Bridesmaid
Taziyana and I have so many great memories as children and we are continuing to make more memories as adults. When we were younger I would go to Philadelphia for Thanksgiving. The kids would play and the adults would be adults, while we enjoyed great food at Aunt May’s house. We share similar experiences when Taziyana would visit New Jersey. She has grown into a great mother and businesswoman.
MICHELLE HOLLIDAY
Bridesmaid
Although Michelle and I met as cousins when we were adults, we have formed a great bond. She is a wonderful mother and I can’t wait to continue our relationship and more memories.
MARIO PORTER
Groomsman
Few people know me as well as P (Mario). Another member of the park crew! If there’s anyone that’s got my back it’s P. He got a gift of being objective and loyal in any situation. Over 25 years a friendship!!!
CHRISTOPHER FRANCOIS
Groomsman
Chris is the one friend I would start a rap duo group with. Ha ha ha! No seriously we constantly bounce off ideas about being boys in the beginning and being men now. We don’t have the same approach but more often than not we agree about the journey. A member of the park crew.
DONALD DESIR
Groomsman
Donald and I met in high school but really got cool after spending a semester as college roommates. As we got older we got a chance to work closely together at the same company. We also lived in the same area and got to spend a lot of time together. From there we became as thick as thieves. I was fortunate enough to be a groomsmen at his wedding and I’m happy he’ll be there for mine! He is also a big reason why Kewanna and I are together. He saw something in us and felt we had to meet. From there Kewanna and Jeff begins..,
GABRIEL GRAY
Groomsman
Gabe and I met in college and stayed in the same dorm. We had an instant connection. Music and technology is where we originally found common ground. As college kids we had discussions that challenged the status quo. Gabe and I also became roommates as adults because of how well we got along. Gabe has always treated me like family. I spent Thanksgiving holidays with his family more than once. He’s a great friend and I will always consider him a brother from another mother.
CHRISTOPHER PIENTEK
Groomsman
Crispy Chris! If there’s one person who’s always there it’s Chris! I was honored to be the Best Man at his wedding. We met in college and hung out all the time just because. We played ball together and went out to party together. 20 years of friendship and we still do the same thing. Always ready to ride out, Chris is the one who will have your back. I hope he stays around and lucky to have him there on my big day!
DWAYNE AILEY
Groomsman
Dwayne is my guy on the basketball court! We played against each other and mostly together over the last 20 plus years. He definitely pushed me to become a better player. And like most things in basketball it translates to real life. He pushes me to level up in life just like in the games we play. We’ve won a lot of championships on the court and in real life. He’s all about growing for the future and enjoying the present.
JOSIAH AUSTIN
Groomsman
Jo! Basketball, money, and travel! Foundations for a great bond. We truly believe in work hard play hard. We got to win some championships and see the world doing it. Epic Carnival trips and island vacays were our recovery from some wars on the court. Happy to have him on my team as I start this next chapter! He continues to remind me there are so many ways to win,
GABRIEL MOLINA
Groomsman
Gabe! He’s from my home town and we have mutual friends but we only met about 10 years ago. But there was something familiar about him as soon as we met. We give credit to Sagittarius powers. But we definitely vibe on the some wave. Whether it was a cookout, tailgate, or vacay trip I was able to be a part of Gabe’s events. He’s always treated me like family and always welcomed me. He’s helped me expand my ideas and views on the future. It’s only right he’s here for an important moment in my life!
