Wedding Party

Nailah R. Edwards

Maid of Honor

This is the baby sister of the bride and the youngest of all of our mom's children. This is my baby right here! Although she is my sister, she is one of my best friends. I can count on her for the realness. No one unconditionally loves and supports me like her. Doesn't matter what I do, she always calls me. I am so honored she will be right by my side on my wedding day and throughout the entire wedding process.

Cathy Golder

Matron of Honor

A longtime friend of the bride with over 11 years of friendship; mother and wife. I met Cathy on my first day working in the Cincinnati Children's Speech Department in July 2010. She asked me what my name was twice and then told me "I'm going to be honest, I will not remember that so I will have to come up with a nickname ". Lol, that's my Cathy....she came up with Leemah-Lou which was my name for over 6 years haha. Gotta love it! She has the biggest heart of anyone I know and don't know what I would do without her friendship!

Charen Catlin

Bridesmaid

Charen is the bride's closest and longest friend of over 30 years! A wife and mother of 2. Charen is more than a friend, she is my sister and my best friend. What can you say about someone that has literally known you basically your entire life? I met her when I was 5 1/2 years old in February 1990. We have been through everything together; from all of our life firsts to her marriage, kids, and now my wedding day. I know for sure she knows me better than I know myself. She tells me the hard things....even when I don't want to hear them and starts with "I love you girl, but" lol. What an honor to have this woman by my side on my wedding day. Another milestone we have gone through together. I promise we will be two old ladies in rocking chairs when we are 80 hahaha.

Jerusha Israel

Bridesmaid

Close friend of the bride Rushie and I have known each other for 20 years. Our families have intertwined our whole lives because our mothers and aunts/my uncle went to the same high school. Man, we have had some adventures, between Dayton and Cincinnati. Rushie took me to my first club at 19--she helped me not be so much of a square haha. From the moment I got engaged, she has been nothing but supportive and it means so much to me. Our friendship has grown tremendously in the last 1.5 years. She supports me in my business and has helped me so much with the wedding plans. I am grateful to have her standing up for me on my wedding day

Roxanne Solimano

Bridesmaid

A close friend of the bride. A mother to two girls. Roxanne adopted me.....I mean she and I met a little over 7 years ago lol. She is one of my closest friends and is like a sister to me. She is the calmness I need in a friend because I can be on 1000 with my emotions sometimes. She has talked me off of many of ledges and helped me avoid putting my foot in my mouth lol. If I need the real, she is one of the people I call because I already know that's what I will get. We have laughed, cried, and shared a lot together. I am so thankful to have met Rox and she is an invaluable person in my life. I admire her quiet strength and wisdom! I value her friendship so much.
