Teddi has always referred her to as the sweetest person she knows. They met while working at MD Anderson and clicked immediately. From hanging out with the girls to very important crawfish dates, Raquel and Teddi have developed an unmatched friendship. She's been a major supporter of Teddi and Darren's relationship, and has always remained a phone call or text message away. #WolfPack #SweetPeaSessions

Darren's older brother that never hesitated to beat him up as a kid, making him the man he is today. Darren would like the world to know that he FINALLY beat him at the age of 13.

Christon would watch Darren on SportsCenter, and Darren would listen to Christon's music. As fans, they later became close friends.

What most don't know is that Valarie has not only been Teddi's agent, but grown to be a very dear friend. Over the years, she's offered Teddi countless valuable gems and words of wisdom that have allowed Teddi to remain confident, poised, and professional. Valarie often reminds Teddi that she reminds her of her younger self. There's not a city or client that they can't tackle! She even sent Teddi on the assignment where she met Darren. #ModelMastersInc #CEO #BossLady

From when they met in 2004 they instantly became "brothers from another mother". They've challenged each other, never took "no" for an answer, and were always willing to prove naysayers wrong...and they did. From selling out Que parties at Wayne State, to winning step shows across the country, to then being one of the most recognized Ques in Michigan. "Friendship is essential to the soul". 10th DLB. Darren's personal federal law enforcement.

Kesha and Teddi met through mutual acquaintances, and soon realized that God had bigger plans for their friendship.

Teddi and Nia met years ago through mutual friends. From hanging out in Houston to both relocating to opposite sides of the country, nothing has stopped these two from supporting and encouraging each other. Teddi, now a future bride, and Nia a SUPER mom in California, are both thankful that God saw fit to allow their paths to cross. #SuperMom #BossLady

Darren's day one. They went from air matttesses to successful young men. Darren never hesitates to remind Floyd that if it wasn't for him, Floyd still wouldn't know how to cook rice. #AirMattress #RiceCooker #LittleBrother

Brackston & Darren grew up together, witnessing their fathers team up to build the cities of Woodbridge, Hamden, and New Haven, Connecticut as a few of the most influential African-American contractors of the area. Neither ever shied away from a day of hard work, and both hold each other equally responsible for being upstanding men. From going head to head as rivals on the football team to tag-teaming the grill on steak night, these two have proven that some childhood bonds truly do last a lifetime.

Teddi has never met a more enthusiastic and optimistic person! Teddi and Shyra met through a mutual acquaintance and never expected their friendship to blossom the way it has!

In a short amount of time, Melissa and Teddi have developed one of the most important relationships she's ever had. Wife to groomsman, Floyd Ferjuste, Melissa has remained one of the most supportive women she knows. She's been a listening ear and praying partner who has offered nothing but love and open arms. It was at Melissa and Floyd's wedding that Teddi knew she was absolutely sure that Darren was the man she wanted to marry! #MelFloydBetterTogether #MommyToBe

Darren's broadcasting partner in crime and the reason he approached Teddi at NABJ in Minneapolis.

Kelli, Darren's oldest sister, was someone who Teddi absolutely knew she needed and wanted as a bridesmaid.

Daughter of Teddi's cousin, LaToya Williams and little sister to ring bearer, Henry. Bracy has been Teddi's baby since she could sit up on her own. They both share an affinity for Tiffany & Co. jewelry and all things that sparkle! If there's a family function, rest assured that you'll find Bracy sharing Teddi's lap with her big brother.

Teddi's cousin, one whom she vows will never outgrow her lap. He's son of one of her favorite cousins, LaToya Williams and big brother to flower girl, Bracy Williams.

Within minutes of meeting, she asked Teddi if she would be her best friend. Teddi has always preferred the title of "bonus mom," because Joelle is definitely an extra perk of being in love with Darren. They often share "big girl lunches" and frequently convert the living room into a beauty shop. Her fondest memory is Joelle blowing her a kiss from her seat at her pre-k graduation. She will never turn down a snack and is absolutely elated to wear a new pretty dress at the wedding!
