Wedding Party

Our wedding party reflects a thoughtfully curated circle of those who mean a lot to us. We chose to keep our wedding party small and intentional, surrounding ourselves with people who truly know us, support us, and allow us to be our authentic selves. They’ve supported our journey, understand our love, and stand with us as we begin this next chapter; We are honored to have them stand beside us. We know that when we look back, we’ll be reminded that we were surrounded by exactly who we needed.

Deontre' Barrett

Groom

A man of his word, whose strength is matched by his heart. He is an alpha in the best way; steady, grounded, and a true source of security. Gentle in spirit, yet leads with confidence and purpose. Through every challenge, he remains strong and resilient, never folding under pressure. A devoted father, a loyal friend, and a partner who shows up fully. I love him for who he is at his core, what he stands for, and the values he lives by every day. (Written by Bride)


Shatoria Tarver

Bride

The kind of woman who makes life better simply by being herself. Trustworthy, loyal, caring, and loving, she has a heart that pours into everyone around her. Her beauty is matched by her character, and she embodies the qualities of a devoted partner and future wife. I am thankful for her love, her friendship, and the life we are building together. (Written by Groom)

Chris Adams

Best Man

Chris and I have been friends for a while but our brotherhood grew during a time when we both faced some challenges. Similar to me, he’s grounded in family, faith and he's a leader by example. A true loyal stand-up guy and I have a lot of respect for who he is. Glad to have him by my side.


Kennisha Salter

Bridesmaid

Kennisha has been my friend since high school, and we’ve grown through so many seasons of life together. I really appreciate the loyal friend she has been through our journey. Someone who will always show up and support when it matters most. We have that unspoken understanding in our friendship, and I’m so thankful to have such a solid, genuine person standing by me.

Carlos Dewayne Barrett

Groomsman

My brother since birth my first friend and bully. Through all the laughter, disagreements, and memories, he’s always been a constant in my life. I’m grateful to have him with me on such an important day. Family is family, and that connection means everything.


Shan Simmons

Maid of Honor

My best friend is truly my person (outside of my fiance' of course) the one I can talk to about anything, from the moon and the stars to investments and why we should never sell our real estate. We can talk about everything and nothing at all, and somehow always feel seen and heard. Through every chapter and every friendship group, she has remained a constant in my life. We share a special bond and an inside joke that says, “we’re the ones that lasted,” and that speaks volumes about the strength of our friendship. I couldn’t imagine this journey without her.

Warren Dawkins

Groomsman

Warren and I have shared years of memories, challenges, and victories, and through it all, he has remained a constant friend. True friendship isn’t measured by how long you’ve known someone, but by who stays through every chapter of life. I’m honored to have him standing beside me as I begin this new journey.
