Diana - Officiant
Diana has knows Lynnea and Tylik for as long as Lynnea and Tylik have known each other. She has been the biggest supporter of our relationship and has been an amazing friend to each of us for nearly 20 years. The question of whos side she would stand on was answered in the most diplomatic way we could think of. We love you Diana and we couldn't imagine anyone other then you asking us if we do!!!
Marneta - Maid of Honor
Marneta is my sister by choice! Way more than a friend.
We have went through so much together in the 10 + years we have known each other. She was the silver lining to my storm cloud! She is the first and last person I go to for advise about just about anything.
If I have a secret, I know Marneta will keep it!
LaKeisha - Bridesmaid
I never had to worry about being alone as a child because my big sister has always been there. She asked all the questions that I was afraid to. She stood up for me at time that I couldn't stand for myself and when mommy said no, my big sister found away to improvise and make it feel like I got my way.
I guess she's the reason I'm so spoiled now.
Joan - Bridesmaid
Big things come in small packages. I will never forget the way I felt when she said "You have my face!" Joan brought so many answers to questions that never knew to ask. Our Dad was very selfish to keep us apart as children but what God has planned no man can prevent!!!
Joan is calm, love and acceptance I am proud to have her stand with me.
Valarie - Bridesmaid
From the day I met Valarie her loving spirit embraced me when I didnt know what to expect. When your boyfriend tells you he wants to introduce you to his best female friend, you expect to be grilled and questioned about why you are good enough form him. Valerie walked right up to me, hugged me and told me I was cute. We clicked from day one. The running joke is that I'm stealing Tyliks best friend status
Welcome to the Brides Side Val
Jay - Best Man
Jay is The Oracle, the Prophet, a man of many truths. Began his journey with Tylik on the school yard of Bangs Ave Elementary School where they shared primary and secondary school classes with each other. Jays clan of Winrows welcomed a 3rd brother in Tylik and created a bond that would stand the test of time forever reoccuring in many roles and scenes for the rest of their lives. To this day along with chosen sister Alene, this Trio remain connected at the roots forever extending an olive branch to each others life.
RADI - Grooms-Woman
The Silver Lining in a Perfect Storm, RADI and Tylik were known for causing the most havoc on the campus of Montclair State University at the start of 2010. What started as a an intellectual conversation over a greasy slice of pizza, developed into the bridging of so many different unique worlds of experiences, talents, misfortunes and priceless adventures that can never be disregarded. RADI and wife Nadine have come face to face with the best and worst times of Tylik and have showed up in every situation to be the pill and potion of what he needs to be the best version of himself.
Jose - Grooms Men
Jose stands to be the Wild Card in the pack. Jose and Tylik's story may have began in Asbury Park Middle School, but it flourished in the greater parts of Asbury Park High and beyond. Casted as the gifted outsiders, Jose and Tylik defied cultural barriers and maintained a bond that matured over time into adulthood. Distance has never let these two skip a beat and they continue to check in on each others families routinely. Brothers with intention.
Vidal - Grooms Men
Vidal, a classmate of Lynnea, would foresee this union years in the making before they even knew. A Californian native, Lynnea introduced Tylik and Vidal in 2004 and no matter what space and time they were in life, he always reinforced the idea of these two love birds sharing a life together . Vidal, a father of 4 and married for several years has always opened his doors to the couple and bridge these two families together.
