Our Wedding

It all began in the summer of 2020 when fate brought us together. After a few months of getting to know one another, on October 19, 2020, Aaron asked me to be his girlfriend—a simple question that changed our lives forever. Our journey has seen moments of joy, growth, and even bittersweet memories. In April of 2024, we experienced the heartbreaking loss of my dad. Before he passed, he had a touching conversation with Aaron. He expressed that he knew he wouldn’t be here when the time came, yet he gave Aaron his heartfelt blessing. He said he could see it in my eyes that I was truly happy, and no matter what, he promised to be with us on our wedding day. His words continue to guide and comfort us as we move forward in life. Then, on November 2, 2024, in a moment that perfectly encapsulated our perfectly imperfect journey, I found myself in the kitchen—mid-cleaning and in a bit of a hot mess—when Aaron, with Jay (his best man) joining on video chat, got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife. It was a spontaneous, heartfelt proposal that captured the essence of our love and the beautiful chaos that comes with it. Together, we have built a strong, Christ-centered relationship. Every challenge and every celebration has taught us more about love, resilience, and the promise of a shared future. We’re excited to invite you to witness the next chapter of our journey as we continue to learn, grow, and love together.

Meet T'Ana: My cousin, best friend, and sister in Christ!
Family is a gift, but every once in a while, God blesses us with a bond that goes beyond blood. T'Ana is not just my cousin—she is my best friend, my confidante, and my sister in Christ. From childhood memories to life’s biggest moments, she has been by my side, offering love, laughter, and unwavering faith. Her kindness, strength, and heart for God inspire me every day, and I couldn’t imagine this journey without her.

As I step into this new chapter, I am beyond grateful to have her support, prayers, and presence. She has been a part of my love story in so many ways, and I can't wait to celebrate this special day with her standing beside me.

Meet Jay : The Voice Of Reason and Life Of The Party!

Some friendships stand the test of time, and for over 10 years, Jay has been more than just a best friend to Aaron—he's been like a brother. Through every season of life, he has been there with unwavering loyalty, great advice, and a whole lot of laughter. He’s the perfect balance of wisdom and fun—the voice of reason when it’s needed most and the life of the party wherever he goes.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of getting to know Jay, and he has become a great friend to me as well. His big heart, genuine kindness, and ability to bring joy to any situation make him someone we’re so grateful to have in our lives.

We couldn’t imagine our wedding day without him standing beside us, celebrating this next chapter with us!

Meet Joel: The Brother Of The Bride

If there’s one person who can light up any room, it’s Joel. With a heart as big as his personality, he’s been my lifelong partner-in-crime, biggest supporter, and the ultimate source of laughter. Whether he's cracking jokes, bringing the energy, or just being his incredible, joyful self, he makes every moment unforgettable. I couldn't imagine this day without him standing by my side, adding his signature enthusiasm to the celebration. Get ready—because with him around, there's never a dull moment!

Meet little Joel- One of the most precious parts of our wedding day is having our sweet nephew and godson, Joel, as our ring bearer. He is such a bright light in our lives, filling our hearts with love, laughter, and joy every single day. Being his aunt/uncle and godparent is one of our greatest blessings, and we are so honored to have him play this special role in our big day. We can’t wait to see him walk down the aisle, carrying not just our rings but also a piece of our hearts!

Meet Our Flower Grannie!
Traditionally, weddings have flower girls, but we wanted to do something extra special—so instead of a flower girl, we have a Flower Grannie!

We are beyond blessed to have Grandma Diana as a part of our big day in this unique and meaningful way. She has been a source of love, wisdom, and joy in our lives, and now she’ll be sprinkling petals (and probably some extra love and laughter) down the aisle before we say, "I do."

We can’t wait for you all to see her shining in this special role—get ready for some unforgettable moments!
