Kimmy and I were both living in Brooklyn when we became really close. Our friendship has only grown since, and I’m grateful to have her by my side today.
Nate
Best Man
Nate and I first became friends through basketball when I joined his AYBT team, the Rockford Rage. What started on the court quickly grew into a true friendship built on our love of sports and our shared sense of humor. Through high school, Nate was always game to jump into any funny videos we made, no matter how absurd or ridiculous. PK3 Even though we live in different states now, we’ve stayed close. We catch up often over the phone, spend late nights playing Call of Duty, and talk about life and what’s next. Nate and I have always been each other’s biggest supporters, cheering each other on as we chase our dreams.
Ryan
Groomsman
My oldest brother Ryan has played a huge role in shaping who I am today. He helped me land my job at BET in New York City—a move that completely changed my life, taking me from Chicago to the city where so many of my dreams started coming true. Ryan and I have always bonded over our love of movies, filmmaking, and creativity. Over the past five years, we’ve built a business together, making films and shows that reflect that shared passion. He’s been my creative sounding board, my collaborator, and—most importantly—my protective big brother.
Devon
Groomsman
Devon is the reason I fell in love with rap music. He was always the one getting the newest albums, and some of my favorite memories are of us grabbing an energy drink and a Fast Break, then sitting in his car blasting the latest Lil Wayne CD. Those moments sparked a love for music that’s stayed with me ever since. Beyond that, Devon has always been the kind of brother who would fight for me any day of the week. No matter what’s going on, he’s there with advice, support, and a steady presence I know I can count on. I’m lucky to have him as both a brother and a groomsman.
Nick
Groomsman
Nick and I first met at North Middle School through basketball, and from there we built a friendship around sports, endless conversations, and plenty of adventures. At one point, we even created our own two-man gang called R.A.B. One of our most legendary memories? The time we ended up getting chased into a cornfield. Beyond the wild stories, Nick has always been a true friend—someone I can count on and laugh with no matter what stage of life we’re in.
Chris
Groomsman
Chris and I go all the way back to first grade. From riding bikes around the neighborhood to spending hours playing video games we probably weren’t old enough for, we’ve been inseparable since we were kids. We bonded over our shared love of Eminem and WWE wrestling, and that friendship only grew stronger over the years. In our early twenties, we even lived together in Chicago, where we both worked at Noodles & Company (I was the one who got him the job!). Through every stage of life, Chris has been there, and I’m so grateful to have him standing by my side on this day.
Ricky
Groomsman
Ricky is Marissa’s younger brother, and over the years, he’s become a great friend of mine. We bonded quickly over our shared love of horror movies, and that passion led us to working together on two horror films. It’s been amazing to grow that friendship through both creativity and family, and I’m grateful to have him standing with me on this day.
