Matron of Honor
Jade and I met freshman year of highschool during pre season for girls soccer. I can't remember how we became paired up but I remember her being my go to partner for every drill for the rest of the season. My first year of soccer has always been memorable because Jade was always my number 1 supporter and I kindly repaid it with a accidental soccer ball to the face... love you bestie :) off the field was so much more and it grew to an amazing bond that we continue to have 14+ years later. Growing up most of greatest memories come from most of the traveling we got to do from Miami, to Chicago and most recently Niagara falls most was a first time for myself overall I'm so happy I got to experience it with Jade by my side. Jade is one of the sweetest, funniest, all around amazing soul and I'm so happy that I get to call you my best friend! my ride and die forever.
Best Man
I remember the first time I meet John back in Boy Scouts. He was easy to find since he was the other tallest kid in the room and we needed to stick together.. Our friendship really grew from that day to where we really started knowing each other throughout high school. During that time we always hung-out a lot in our Venture Crew, always trying to make sure we were the fancy group such as getting an event canopy during the hottest summer camp ever. After senior year we really got close and relaxed every day that summer, getting Little Caesars and wondering college would be like. I am really thankful for you in my life, my bestfriend.

Conner my little sister. Growing up we'd dress up like twins, take bike rides together and watch plenty of disney movies. In our teen years we played soccer together, Occasionally played and dominated dance dance revolution and continued our normal tv binge watch (wife swap occasionally). Now both in our 20s does the memories keep growing and as I cherish! Now we try new foods, visit new places and see great movies together. Despite arguments and I can never get over you beating me in some games (always won in rematches ;) You were my day one there is no one else I would share these memories with. Conner growing up I love seeing how positive, strong, smart and fierce you are. I love seeing you grow to the beautiful woman you are today.

Jaquan and I first met through a close friend of ours, Jalen. Little did we know that we would eventually be roommates and have a great friendship. Honestly he was one of the best roommates because we both had bad roommate experiences. Honestly, Jaquan helped me gain the courage to switch majors when I was struggling. We would run that back in 2020 during COVID and became roommates temporarily again. Thank you for always being there when I needed you most.
Bridesmaid
I first met Jamila back in 2016. I was just getting back into soccer and I was entering a new team. It was there I met Jamila who became my partner for most of the first practice. Although it was a struggle at first Jamila was always pushing me to do 150% and each practice was easier knowing I gained a special friend. Outside of soccer Jamila was always a joy and fun spirit to be around. From trying new food spots together and binge watching latest Netflix shows. One of my favorite times was going to see Michigan Women's Soccer team to leaving to go see Morris Chestnut in When the Bough Breaks (still laughing at that movie). I love what Jamila and I have in our friendship can't wait to continue to make many more great memories.

I did not meet Kam until I started talking with Ebone and from the beginning I felt connected to the group at the time even though I was just some stranger that was really interested in Ebone. I remember one time I was going downstairs in his condo in Farmington Hills and I hit my head on the shorter ceiling, cementing a moment that would start a friendship. I always find myself going to Kam for that calm, collected assurance when I need it most and for that I am grateful to have you in my life.

Breana and I met first met at Adventure park, an aerial ropes course we had both worked at the time. Instantly we had a bond. We took lunches together and when we had time we'd often climb the courses at the park. Outside of work was even more fun. I remember first going to Necto for Bre's 19th bday and remember having such a good time. As we got older I always enjoyed getting to see and explore new places together and till this day continue to do so. Breana is a great vibe to be around, From our outdoor adventures such like our woah zone water park experience to our karoke day at your photographer studio or just chilled hangouts at each others homes. Each experience always has a great outcome what I love what we have in our friendship.

Everyone needs that instigating friend that just understands the chaos vibe you want to endure, and Josh is that guy. Another friend that I met via Ebone, and I could never forget immediately bonding with this guy just over how Ebone and I poke jokes out of each other. Often times Josh is always that friend that is down to do anything at anytime. For that, I appreciate him being in my life to show me to always go full send.
Bridesmaid
Miranda and I are the definition of childhood best friends. Miranda and I met in 1st grade at Hillside Elementary. We had the same ongoing ritual from that day till high school. We walk to our bus stop together, I remember our bus rides always being legendary from the 1st to the 5th grade we always would think once we got to the 5th grade we would own the back seat because 5th graders (we thought) were always the coolest. Middle school and high school bus rides seats were always packed. I remember one time Miranda and I just said screw it and sat in the emergency exit. For school I remember we had the same teacher all of elementary school (Ms. Sabon being our favorite teacher) to have most if not all classes from middle school to high school. I love how we have so many silly childhood memories to the memories we have growing to adulthood and the ones continue to make today.

HABIBI! That would be the first thing I scream either into the phone or seeing Alex, where appropriate. When I first met Alex, we both vibed on us being the reserved, content people, but came to realize he is a guy you can pick up where-ever you left off no matter how long it has been. I remember we really cemented our friendship one New Years' Eve where Ebone threw a party and barely survived past midnight. I will never forget the Sully Dance video.
