When they say cousins are our first friends this girl takes the cake. She's more like my big sister than a cousin but family is family! She's been taking care of me for a long time, teaching me life lessons like only a big sister can. When Drew popped the question there wasn't a second guess about who my maid of honor would be. I've always looked up to her and I'm so happy she will be standing next to me on such an important day. Love you Coya!!!

My dear friend Karimah. Where should I start? When I met her at Progressive I would have never saw us hanging out the way we do but I guess opposites attracked. She's been such a good friend to me, through the good, bad and back to good patches in my life and vice versa. I wouldn't dare think to have this special day without her being in it. Here's to more great life memories to come!

She is officially becoming my sister! In my mind she's been that since the first time I drove to Tallahassee to visit Drew. She's been through all of the ups and downs of our relationship and I couldn't ask for a better sister-in-law if I built her myself. With all the cheerleading she's done for us it just wouldn't be right if she isn't standing up there with us when we start this next chapter in our lives! Love you Chris!

My little homie, the only person in the group shorter than me. But don't let the height fool you. She'll go from Brizette to B on you faster than you can say "are you from New York?". She's the closest to me personality wise and I love her to death for it. She trusts me enough to make me the God mother of her son and I take that friendship and trust to heart. From our silly conversations to those a little more on the serious side, I couldn't imagine my day without her in it!

My crazy little sister! Anyone who has ever met this girl knows exactly what I mean. Even though we came into each others lives a little late I love this girl with all of my heart. We are more alike than I may readily admit. We can go weeks without talking and pick up a conversation like we just talked yesterday. No matter what is going on we never get off the phone without laughing.  If you're looking for a good laugh during the wedding and reception, she's your girl! I'm so glad she will be a part of my big day.

Kecia is the mediator and voice of reason of our group. I've gotten so much sound advice from her, I'd probably have both of my feet in my mouth if I didn't talk to her first. She's my natural journey sister and one of the most loyal people I know. I'm so glad we've had to opportunity to get closer and hang out more over the years. I'm so happy to have her be a part of my special day!

My "about to be official" niece! This young lady danced into my life when she was about 5 or 6 years old. From the first time I drove to Tallahassee she stuck to me like glue. I loved and still love having her around. Even with the years between me seeing her again we got right back to where we were. I'm so proud of the young woman she's becoming and I'm so excited for her to have such an important role on such an important day.

My BFF! No one is going to throw flowers and Zumba/Robot 1-2 down the aisle like this little princess. I can't wait to see her performance.

Ms. Cute as a Button London! You will know this little princess when you see her walking down the aisle by her long curly hair, dimples and body rolling dance moves. I can't wait to see her work!

Some people may think it's crazy but I chose my father to be my Best Man. I must say growing up in our household was quite a challenge because it was definitely tough upholding the Johnson family name. But I have to say, I wouldn't have changed it for the world. My father showed me tough love, guided me down the right path, and taught me how to be the man that I am today. It took me until I was 25 years old to realize that he was 90% right most of the time in what he was telling me. It tasted like vinegar when I finally told him but it had to be done. So to my Best Man, My Father, My Protector, My Mentor, My Hero and most of all, My Friend....I THANK YOU!!!!

My main man Chase...this kid is so funny to me. This kid stays on the go when he finally warms up to you. He is at his best when he is speaking different languages and wanting to play fight with his swords. This guy is pretty awesome. I couldn't have asked for a more handsome ring bearer. Chase, I THANK YOU!!

Well you all know my son Jordan and I have to say that this kid is truly amazing. He has made this transition for me into fatherhood fairly easy. We have had some bumps in the road but what father and son hasn't? No matter what we over come the situation and move forward. Not only is he one of the most well mannered kids that I have ever met but he is an honor roll student and star athlete in baseball. I'm so proud to be a part of his life and help guide him down the right path as my father showed me. It seems like I learn just as much from you as you do from me. You are definitely one of a kind. To my son Jordan, I THANK YOU!!!

Well I've known this guy my entire life. We were born the same year and just a few months apart. We are the oldest males of the many grandchildren in the family. Everyone will be looking at us soon to take over the reigns of this family. But I have to say you are more like a brother than a cousin. We have alot of memories, from summer getaways as kids to even better memories as grown men. Over the past few years we have grown much closer and I appreciate you reaching out during some tough times. You are one of the smartest men I know except for liking the Los Angeles Lakers but I still got love for you...Claude, I THANK YOU!!!

I've known this next guy for all of his life, my cousin Cory Mikel aka C-Mike. Man like everyone always says, I'm starting see so much of me in you daily. Especially in sports and the way we carry ourselves. I don't know where you got all of the height from but you turned out to be one heck of a basketball player. I mean you still can't beat me but thats ok, maybe one day. We have also become closer over the past few years by staying in touch and taking trips. Let's keep it going. You are also a smart young man except when you are cheering for the Los Angeles Lakers like you brother Claude. But its all good...Cory, I THANK YOU!!!

Man oh Man...me and this guy go way back. We have been friends since those Rockledge Steelers days. I must say you have definitely been a great friend throughout the years. Too many memories and and even more road trips lol...#classic!! I couldn't have asked for a better friend to be with me through those rough times. You are truly a brother from another mother. Justin, I THANK YOU!!!

Mr. Gaffney, South Carolina himself...Kano Dukes. Man there is no way this wedding was going down without this guy. I met this man in college and it was a wrap from there. I remember the first night we hung out, we headed out to the College of Charleston and then we were stuck like glue. This is same guy the told me on one of our many excursions that he didn't even like me at first, GO FIGURE. All in all, I'm glad that we are still kicking. This guy a brother from another mother. Kano, I THANK YOU!!

This guy right is more like a big little brother to me. I met this guy in Tallahassee playing flag football. We were competitors for a minute and then they did the unthinkable and put us on the same team. A true dynasty was formed. We have so much in common from sports, vdeo games, family, and just acting a dang fool at times. Along with Tosha's sister Sonya, this guy will definitely be the life of the party. He is definitely a brother from another mother. George, I THANK YOU!!

I can remember when I met this guy. It was in 1998 and he was a security guard at THE MOON in Tallahassee. He was friends with my sister and he snuck me in because I wasn't 21 yrs old yet. I knew right then we were gonna be friends forever. Who would of thought that ten years later, we would of still been friends. Once I moved to Tallahassee, he became my right hand man. We have worked together, lived together, cried together and anything else you can imagine. Homie, it just wouldn't feel right if you weren't apart of this day. Again, a brother from another mother. Marcus, I THANK YOU!!
