Fun fact about me: I’ve got Jesus on speed dial, and I use Google more than I breathe.

How I met the Groom: I met the groom the day I was born—well, maybe not exactly that day, ’cause I doubt they were letting little boys into the labor room, or even out of the house without strict supervision. But you get the idea. He’s been there literally all my life. One of the best siblings anyone could ever ask for—just like the rest of my siblings. So yeah, sorry everyone else, but it looks like God sent all the premium siblings to our house and left y’all with the B team.

Growing up, we didn’t really go out much. Some might call that a boring childhood… but not when you’ve got a brother like him. He was the creative engine behind most of the fun things I remember from our little world. Games, stories, random inventions—we had a full amusement park inside the house, powered by his imagination. Honestly, it was the best kind of childhood anyone could hope for.

A favorite memory/experience we’ve shared: It’s honestly hard to pick a favorite memory because we’ve had so many. But let me go with one I know he barely shares—probably because it’s way too funny.

So, growing up, we were raised pretty strictly—no alcohol, no funny business, and a good dose of Bible-based discipline. We barely went out, mostly stuck to TV and books—and trust me, he did the reading for all of us. He was big on motivational books and speeches. Like, big big.

Then one day, this man decided to hang out with his friends and try a little alcohol. Just a little. But because his system had never met anything stronger than Ribena, it hit him fast. He came back home, completely intoxicated, and immediately transformed into Prime Martin Luther King Jr. I’m talking full-blown motivational speaker mode—hand gestures, powerful quotes, pacing the room.

At one point, he even grabbed my dad for dramatic emphasis while delivering what I can only describe as a TED Talk sponsored by Hennessy. I was laughing so hard, my friend and I were in tears. It was the most inspirational and chaotic moment rolled into one.

A goodwill message for the couple: I wish you both a marriage overflowing with joy, peace, favor, and endless grace. May your home be filled with laughter, beautiful children, and a premium-level understanding of each other that only deepens with time. I’m rooting for the best of the best moments for you—across every season and every corner of the world. I love you both deeply, and I pray that nothing ever comes between you. May your family grow stronger, closer, and more in love every single day.
