Katherine Kittrell
Matron of Honor
Katherine and I became friends in Kindergarten at Winton Forest Elementary back in the early ’90s, and we’ve been best friends ever since! No matter where life has taken us from Cincinnati to Atlanta nothing has ever been able to come between our friendship. Katherine is my forever bestie, and I couldn’t imagine celebrating this day without her by my side. 💕
Michael Thompson
Best Man
In 1998, an incredible friendship ignited between Mike and me, and what a journey it has been! We quickly discovered that our backgrounds were strikingly similar, and we shared so many interests that it felt like fate had brought us together. As the years flew by, our bond transformed from mere friends into best friends, and eventually, we became true brothers. When Mike headed off to the military right after high school, we vowed to keep our brotherhood alive. Now, 28 years later, our connection is stronger than ever!
Landon Zellars
Man of Honor
Landon and I became instant besties in 2015, and we've been inseparable ever since! From our days in the classroom to our weekly happy hours at Bargo's, our friendship quickly grew into family. Landon is my ride-or-die and the little brother I always wished for. ❤️ I’m so grateful to have him in my life and by my side on this special day—and of course, he will proudly stand as my “Man of Honor,” because he is literally the best and we are locked in forever!
Steve Showes
Groomsman
Steve and I kicked off an incredible friendship 16 years ago when we were both coworkers. Right from the start, he took me under his wing, eager to share his wisdom and help me level up my professionalism. Our bond grew beyond the office walls, morphing into something truly special. Over the years, Steve transformed into more than just a friend; he became like an Uncle to me, filling my life with guidance, support, and unforgettable moments!
Elijah Turner
Groomsman
Elijah, my amazing and brilliant son, truly is one of life’s greatest blessings from God since the moment he entered this world. Watching him evolve into the remarkable young man he is today has filled my heart with pure joy! I can hardly contain my excitement at the thought of having Elijah by my side as a groomsman on my wedding day—it's going to elevate the whole celebration to an unforgettable level!
Latrice Watkins
Maid of Honor
Latrice and I became instant friends while teaching at Fairfield City Schools. What started as a simple invitation to hang out quickly turned into a lifelong sisterhood, and our daughters even became like cousins along the way. From sporting adventures to hosting some of the most epic tailgating events around, we’ve created countless unforgettable memories together. I’m so grateful for our friendship, and I couldn’t imagine this day without her by my side as one of my Maids of Honor. ❤️
Cheyenne Smith
Maid of Honor
Cheyenne and I met in 2007 at Eastern Michigan University in the Putnam Projects. Not long after, we discovered that our families were actually neighbors, and from that moment on, we became family. From making memories at summer concerts in Detroit to so many moments in between, Cheyenne has been by my side through every season of life. She is Mariyah’s godmother, and I am proud to be the godmother of her son, Chase. I am so happy to have her stand by my side as one of my Maids of Honor. ❤️
Vincent Turner
Groomsman
Vince isn’t just my 1st cousin; he’s more like a 2nd brother! Our childhood was an epic adventure filled with laughter and mischief. Every school break, he’d dive into our world, hanging out at our house for weeks and turning ordinary weekends into unforgettable escapades. To this day, I proudly call Vince my cousin/brother, and our bond only gets stronger with time!
Camille Tevis
Bridesmaid
Camille and I became instant best friends in 6th grade choir class at Pleasant Run Middle School. From middle school dances to high school graduations, late-night talks, and all the life moments in between, we’ve been through it all together. Now, 20 years later, we’re still the best of friends and just as close as ever. I couldn’t imagine this special day without Camille by my side. ❤️
Kara Brown
Bridesmaid
Kara and I grew up together after meeting while playing outside in our neighborhood, and we instantly became lifelong best friends. From that moment on, we were pretty much inseparable and did everything together. We’ve been called “Thing 1 and Thing 2” more times than we can count, and it’s always fit us perfectly. If life were Clueless, we would absolutely be the main characters, navigating it all side by side with laughter and a little chaos along the way. Through all the seasons of life, our friendship has stayed strong, and I couldn’t imagine celebrating this special day without Kara by my side. ❤️
Raven Thomas
Bridesmaid
Raven and I are cousins, but you would think she’s the older one the way she keeps everyone in line! Our relationship is full of long talks, unforgettable tailgates, and nonstop laughter over family memories. Whether we’re catching up, giving advice, or cracking jokes, we always have a good time together. I’m so excited to have her by my side on my wedding day! ❤️
Mariyah Thomas
Junior Bridesmaid
An amazing, pretty, cute, beautiful person… and my daughter. My daughter has been with me through everything, and I’m so grateful for her love, support, and presence. She means the world to me, and I couldn’t imagine this special day without her by my side. She adores Eric and has called him her step dad since day one! I am so happy to have her by our side! ❤️
Josh Dixon
Groomsman
Josh is my little brother, and we've been side by side through so much of life. We grew up sharing beds and rooms, creating countless memories along the way. I've always looked out for him, almost like a parent, since I was old enough to take on that role. He is the younger brother but he doesn't play about me. We’ve raised our boys together, fostering a bond between them like brothers. We make it a point to talk on the phone every day, staying connected no matter what.
Dmeco White
Groomsman
Meeco and I kicked off our epic journey as coworkers back in 2019, and from day one, we discovered a mutual talent for roasting and cracking each other up. Our laughter would bounce off the walls of the entire building, creating an atmosphere filled with joy and good vibes. Every single day, you could count on us to carve out an hour where we’d laugh until our sides hurt! The bond we formed soon blossomed into an incredible friendship that extended well beyond the office, and it’s been rock solid ever since.
