Darielle Douglass is the Bride's God sister. They grew up together from diapers in the Summer View Apartments in Memphis, TN. Our bond from childhood has grown substantially since becoming adults. From support to check ins she has always and forever will be in my corner. 23 years of friendship, forever to go!

A bond between a sister (no matter if it is blood or not) is always a deep connection. My little sister Alexis made sure everything went smooth from beginning to end with this process, while helping me acknowledge my strengths and weaknesses without trying.

Over the short period of knowing each other I have found my best friend. I knew you could find forever friends while being in the military or being a spouse and moving around rather, but I did not expect the friendship we have begun to grow. She helps me stay on track and opens my eyes to new ways or new information I would have never thought of. One of the realest people you could ever meet!

A big sister's love is the best feeling in the whole world. From guidance to support Anterria alone covers every area you could ask for when it comes to being the best big sister anyone could ever wish for. Unconditional love and respect is all that runs through me when it comes to my big sister.

The first friend that I met at Cannon AFB and clicked INSTANTLY! It was almost as if I met me in a different body haha! From our long, deep talks to us laughing at random things that go on I am honored and so blessed to have Keyia by my side on my big day!

My sister is the funniest, talented and most heartfelt person you will ever meet. With being completely versatile with the art of doing hair, and her overjoying spirit, she could light up a room with how bright her smile shines!

I met my beautiful friend Brit from my Husband! I thank him every day for befriending the most amazing person on earth! A true down to earth, loving, caring and goal-driven woman! From the day we starting being friends to the rest of our lives will I support you and everything you wish to accomplish in this life!

Meeting through my God sister I also found a friend myself! Through the support and laughing at the abominations I send in our chats we have created a lifetime bond that is stronger than water its self (and if you don't think water is strong get smacked in the face with a couple of gallons of water then come talk to me.) :)

My one and only big brother. He's the goofiest person I know and also the family heckler. He always read my true emotions and is always there for me when I need him. I couldn't ask for a better big brother.

Dj is my best friend and is definitely always a call or text away when I need him. He always has jokes and gives the best advice. He keeps my head on straight and keeps me focused on my future goals. He wants to see us win and wants us to strive for greatness.

Jalon Is my cousin and one of the closest family members to me. We talk and joke all the time: we even play the game together. We both have dreams of building and cruising together in our favorite older cars.

He's also one of my closest cousins. We may not talk every day but he's always there and has my back through whatever. He showed me what it means to stand on business in any situation. He's hard working and honest. We talk about everything.

Davion is one of my closest cousins as well. We've been through hell and back. We've even dodged death a couple times, lol. He's one of the few male family/friends that will actually show love without being ashamed of it. He didn't care about family issues and operates under the saying: "you my family and I love ya gang." My cousin taught me to value those who value me and to give your people their flowers while they're on this Earth with you.

He has been a great addition to the family and takes really good care of my little sister. We are the same person on paper. Blood couldn't make us closer. I can't wait for the day that you become my bro-in-law.

He's one of the funniest guys I know and is the reason I joke the way I do. He's one of my best and realest friends. He introduced me to now lifelong friends. He is dependable and unapologetically himself in every situation.

Duane is not only a friend but he is also a good brother. He's a great friend to me and my wife. He always checks in on us and tells us about his days. He always comes through when you need him and is always ready to step on toes for his friends. He's also a hardworking workaholic that can't stay stationary for too long. He's too hard on himself and I feel that he should cut himself a break sometimes and know his worth.
