I still don't know how you did it. Four girls in the same decade and still just as beautiful. Thank you. I'm blessed to have you as a Mom and to show me what a Wife should be. You didn't have it easy, you are the strongest woman I know. It is amazing to see you enjoying being a Grandmother. All of your babies adore you and I will always be in awe of you. I love my Mom and so does Mitchell!

Mitchell loves his Mom dearly and so do I. You exceded my expectations by miles, Mummy. You raised a mighty mighty good man and to top it off, he knows how to vacuum, mop and stuff. LOL. Thank you for loving me and giving me someone I can count on... And even a bigger Thank you for loving my son Jamal like he was your blood. You are in my heart !

Donald Gomes

Father of the Bride

My Daddy! Thank you for loving me and making my childhood interesting. People would always say how lucky I was to have Don Don as my father. You raised us, played with us, all while working a full time and running two businesses. You can run circles around most men! It's a blessing that you are still here and healthy to be a grandfather to our kids.

Robert Turner

Father of the Groom

With the patience of a saint you are a wonderful father and grandfather. You welcomed me and my son with open arms and a open heart. You're a faithful man that takes care of his family and its a blessing that Mitchell had you in his life. I hope he turns out to be just like you! I love to see your face light up around family and I can't wait to share our special day with you!

The baby and the boss of the family! We shared a bedroom, a brush and friends throughout our childhood. As close as sisters could be, but even closer friends. We always leaned on each other thru good times and bad times and still to this day as grown woman we still cuddle! I coudn't imagine going thru this journey without you by my side. xoxoxo. You're going to make eveything more beautiful! ... "No, No I'm not an ugly crier ... I still look pretty"

miss keri

Sister - Bridesmaid

Oldest of the Gomes girl crew and always life of the Party! She's the sister that everyone spills thier guts too. The kids will always go to her for the biggest hugs and even bigger plates. The Teddy Bear of the bunch who I share a unique bond with. We naturally get along and we can stay on the phone for hours. I know I can count on her to make my Husbands family feel at home. "oh you're from Milwalkee, I'm sorry"

Mrs Shannen

sister - bridesmaid

The other middle child..... yup, she gets it. While everyones fighting over the thrown, there's me and Shannen looking for a good movie and a snack. " We can communicate,,, with just one look." LoL. Always the one to stay level headed, she tried to make sure I behaved. Which wasn't always easy.... but she has never left me stranded. I know I can always call her for help or just to bring me back to earth. Everyone loves Shannen

Mrs Tiana

Bridesmaid - Cousin

We practically grew up like sisters and only 3 months apart. We were born to laugh together. Your smile always made any day brighter. And I know better not to look at you when I am trying to hold back laughter. "Look away! " LoL. We spent our childhood having sleepovers and making up dances. And even now, we can spend all day and night laughing together. We will be forever connected thru heart and spirit. Kisses!

We have been able to count on each other thru so many things. I appreciate our relationship SO MUCH. XO

"Oh look, you can get your checks cashed next door" LOL

Miss Ebony

Bridesmaid

It all started in Spanish class... "Gracias para vivar,,,en la casa el azul tienes con beber" LOL . My Ebony! We became inseparable best friends from the beginning. If we're not together people still ask where the other one is. The "free spirit" and the "regulator" make a perfect pair! I love that about us. The good times are countless. Thank you for always watching my back and making me do better. Luv ya!

Part of my neighborhood gang, high school crew and my college roomie. A bestie and true friend. You were always the good girl on my shoulder saying "don't do it".

"Hi, this is my husband.... you don't have a husband."

Cousin, but just like a lil sis ..... stole my clothes, wore them to school and took pictures of it. HaHa. I watched you grow into this woman and I am so proud of you.

"You are more beautiful than Cinderella, you smell like pine needles and have a face like sunshine" LOL

SHHHH. And when I was 9 years old told me that I need to start a savings account. LoL. What would I do without you. You have been the person to call to weigh my options while having a drink and working on my tan. Thank you for being my friend!

Miss Denise Fernandes

Honor Attendant

Godmother of the bride and escort to grandmother of the bride. You showed me that I could be an independent woman and do it well. And without you, I wouldn't know how to host a proper event like a wedding. I learned from the best! I hope I can make you proud!

Mr. Phillip Gomes

Honor Attendant

We always connected on a higher level. You taught me to lead with my heart and mind. You saw the best in me before anyone else did. Just like me, you can find the beauty in everything. When I was born, you were one of the first ones to hold me and you still are the first one to embrance me when I walk thru the door. Thank you and love you
