Wedding Party

Tiffany Fane

Bride

James Hecke

Father of the Bride

Oh where to begin? We didn't get to see a huge amount of dad as we were small kids due to the seperation of our parents. But every chance we could get we saw him. Dad fought and fought for us many of times but they system always failed us. Finally they had no choice but to take us and our amazing father took my sister and I in right away. He was going to take our other siblings in as well but the system wanted them adopted to fast before we could get the extra room built on. Dad supported my wishes as a young woman and allowed me to join the military. He signed those papers rather he wanted to or not. Dad now would swear to you he has innocent well behaved grandchildren--knowing they sure are some bad butts. :)

Teri Blackwell

Matron of Honor

Teri has been one absolutely amazing friend! Rather she knows it or not she is more of a big sister to me. When I met oh so sweet Teri I thought oh hell, this is not going to work, I'm going to get fired on my first day-- and she is a damn bixxxx. Little did I know that she was going to become a close friend. Little did I know she was going to help take care of my 5 children while i was in the hospital having the 6th. Little did I know she was going to be standing next to me on my special day. This girl is one friend that everyone deserves! Thank you Teri for seeing past my craziness and loving me anyway. I love you!

Becca Tanner

Maid of Honor

This girl and I are destined to be friends. We were once upon a time not necessarily the nicest to each other after a small falling out we had. After time we were able to completely put that behind us and move along with an even stronger friendship. Never did I think anything less of this sweet girl tho. Miss Becca has been through absolute hell and back. Becca-- I love you and cherish the friendship we have and continue to grow on even with distance in-between us. I love you forever sweet girl.

Alicia Spence

Bridesmaid

This lady is one TOUGH cookie. She is an amazing friend. Alicia has helped me with my non profit for many years now. I really can't tell you how our friendship started. It just picked up one day and kicked off. She has helped me with so much. Alicia is an amazing mother as well. I admire you Alicia and your strong spirits, motivation and dedication. I love you and CONTINUE FIGHTING sister.

Bridget Garner

Bridesmaid

Our friendship has grew over this sweet lady being a "vendor" for some of our fundraising items when we first began the Non Profit. I never imagined this girl would end up being a good friend to me. Someone who don't get upset when I don't message everyday and completely understands a busy life (we all know how busy life with one kid is now add 5 more). Someone who can pick up where we left off at. Someone who always has my back. Someone who would send her husband to my rescue so we could relocate my mother. Someone to make sure I have everything I may need. She is someone who surprises me to the fullest. .Someone that will actually pop up and come see ME FOR ME. Someone I know will always have my back if I truly needed something. I love you! Thank you for accepting me.

Brittani Stanfield

Bridesmaid

Brittani and I are completely confusing. We bicker and act like we don't care anymore... like all sisters. But at the end of the day we know better. We have been through hell together. When we had no one else we had each other. We know we always have each other. NO MATTER WHAT. I didn't understand things my sister told me until recently when I myself became an Aunt. My sister has taught me some life lessons even tho she is younger... Brittani you are an amazing woman and mother. I am so impressed at how strong you are and how you are handling situations you were given. Life can't ever just be simple for you. I love you and can't wait to get to meet miss Ella Mae.

Nichole Guyer

Bridesmaid

As funny as this is going to sound.. Our friendship started over filling Easter Eggs for an event Our non profit was hosting. We talked and talked some more over thousands and thousands of silly eggs. We spent hours and hours egging houses and traveling and just really building our friendship while working. Nichole is someone I can trust fully. If I need something I know I can count on her. Life also hasn't been easy for her as well. Nichole I am very proud of you and the progress you have made. I love you so much and can't wait to see our friendship in ten years.

Sharita Lovelady

Bridesmaid

This girl & I have been through hell & back which has made our friendship grow more stronger. Her and my baby sister were friends long before Dre & I ever became a thing. My daddy scared her with the cows & she spent many of nights at our house. Over time, She has hated me, loved me, & everything in between as most sisters or sister in laws go through. But, This girl is my SISTER. I am very proud of the progress she has made over the years. Life has not been easy but this is one STRONG momma here that will never give up. Sharita, I love you and I hope to continue building our "sister like relationship". Keep doing everything you are doing and know your progress is not unnoticed. You can ask your brother I have always been rooting for you in your corner, even from a far and at a distance.

Needam Fane

Groom

What a pain in the AXXXX!! No--totally just kidding. This man is my everything. My backbone. I seriously would not know what to do without him. He has been my best friend for the last 10 years. He may get annoyed with me sometimes I'm sure but he continues to put up with me and that is what truly matters. Dre and I have built our family very fast. This was totally NOT supposed to happen. Or not so fast rather. But it did & we wouldn't trade it for anything else. Life would be boring if it wasn't as busy and full of love as we have now. Our time has had our ups and downs as ALL couples do. But we fought through anything that ever stepped in our way and came out shining through stronger. You are one amazing husband and father. I can't wait to see what the next 10 years with you will bring.

Reatta Fane

Mother of the Groom

Momma has shown me what it's like to actually have a mother. She has taken me in and accepts me like a daughter to her. She has unconditional love for her children and grandchildren. If you know momma you know she is one hard working woman. We love you mama and I appreciate everything that you have done and continue to do for us. Love, Tiffany

We even started doing mma and won the titles in our divisions, him the 170 champion and Me the 185 champion.
