Shaniqua & Corea
Wedding Party
Barbara Robinson
Matron of Honor
Barbara is an amazing wife/mom/grandmother and love God, enjoys traveling, member of EOS, and just learned she LOVES waterfalls lol..To be in her company be prepared to laugh because there is no telling what she might say or do lol....Barbara and Shaniqua met as co-workers in the 911 center and became close friend/sisters for over 15 years. She is THAT person that has remained a great friend with the bride and stood by her side even during her mood swings :-) She has a good heart and always put herself before others. It was not hard for Corea to fall in love with her personality as well. She has always been there for the Bush family, which was easy for them to name her as their son, CJ's godmother.
Jacquelyn Worlds
Bridesmaid
Jackie is a wonderful mother/grandmother and a woman of God. She is caring, a good heart, and always willing to help someone in need. Jackie is the 1st cousin of the bride and was present when the couple met as teenagers. Jackie enjoys spending time with her family and having a good time just don't pass her any alcohol and please don't burp in her presence :-) When Jackie and Shaniqua is on the phone, it's hard to get the cackling hens off the phone so the husband (Corea) says lol... She has been a supportive family member and friend to the couple and has never been judgmental only positive. They are happy to have her apart of their special day.
Princess "Sweetie" Manuel
Bridesmaid
Princess is a genuine, INDEPENDENT woman, not to mention a #dogmom :-) When she is in your presence be prepared to laugh. There has never been a time when her listening ear was not available and she makes you feel comfortable without the fear of judgment. She was there in the beginning of the bride/groom courtship and has remained constant ever since!!!! Princess's mother, Debra and Shaniqua met at Elberta Crate in 2003 and she became a Godmother/friend/confidante to her over the years. Due to that relationship is how Princess and the Bride became close like god-sisters.
Devonna Powell
Bridesmaid
Devonna is a wonderful mother/grandmother and enjoys traveling with her friends. She is the true definition of a person with a heart of gold. Devonna and Shaniqua met at the workplace and have built an enjoyable friendship over the past 7 years and she has proven to be a supportive friend. They are traveling buddies fa sure lol....She has been a supportive friend to the couple and they are excited to have her a part of their special day.
Jason Belin
Best Man
Jason and Corea lived in the same neighborhood (Freewill) and been friends since childhood. It's only fair to call him the Groom's "brother from another mother". Jason is kind, caring, loves the dancefloor, and always supportive of the Bush family and the best uncle to their son "CJ". Jason was present when Corea met Shaniqua as teenagers so we can't imagine our special day without him standing by his side. "A brother… sees you at your best, sees you at your worst. Sees you come last, sees you come first. Sees your lows, sees your highs. But through all of this, he always stands by" - Unknown
Jerome Green
Best Man
Jerome and Corea met as teenagers and have maintained a brotherly bond for over 30 years. Jerome is known to be kind, outspoken, generous, and very supportive of the Bush family. He is "Uncle Rome" to their son, CJ and definitely considered as family. Corea could not imagine this special day without his "brother" standing by his side because he knows Jerome will always have his back. "When you grow up together, you share a bond that makes it easy to often pick up wherever you left off as if no time has passed" -unknown
Alex Harvey
Groomsman
Alex and Corea met and instantly became good friends and have maintained a brotherly bond for almost 10 years. Alex always provides a listening ear for Corea and vice versa. He could not imagine this special day without his friend standing by his side and providing his unwavering support.
Cody Coleman
Groomsman
Cody and Corea met as coworkers and has maintained a brotherly bond for almost 5 years. Cody is kind, generous, and very supportive of the Bush family. He is "Uncle Cody" to their son, CJ, and always shows support in researching information for autism so WE all can meet his needs, understand him, and provide him with the highest quality of life. He and his wife will always be considered "family" to the BUSH family. Corea and Cody can talk about anything and there is never judgment. He could not imagine this special day without his "brother" standing by his side.
Ruben Gibson
Coordinator
Ruben and Shaniqua have been close friends for over 20 years and she calls him her "God-brother" and they share a special bond. He is kind, trustworthy, non-judgmental, caring, and ALWAYS supportive in every way. He's a great uncle to "CJ" and is adored by the Bush family. He's always there to provide a listening ear and has had the bride's back from the beginning. There is no way he could not be present to witness such a special occasion.
