The Meeting
ONE COLD NIGHT IN DALLAS

The Coupling
DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING
After being friends for many years, they both grew very fond of each other and would eventually decide to commit to one another as boyfriend and girlfriend.
Relationship Progression

During the pandemic, Edward drove 22 hours from Maryland to Dallas, Texas, to pick Yvette up and drive another 11 hours to Atlanta, Georgia where they would start living together.

MEET OUR FRIENDSBEST MAN and MAID of HONOR
BEST MANStefalo Acha
Stefalo met Ed in Durham North Carolina, in 2014 when Ed was a student at UNC-Chapel Hill and he a student at Durham Tech. Their nerdy nature and love of science made them friends; a friendship that has since transcended into brotherhood. Stefalo holds a Masters Degree in mechanical engineering and is currently a Ph.D. student at North Carolina’s A&T University, in Greensboro, North Carolina. He enjoys cooking, all things science and space exploration, quantum physics, Dancehall music, and can give you every fact there is to know about the Brazil national soccer team. He enjoys making people laugh and being the life of the party! It’ll be an honor to have him as our Best Man!
MAID OF HONORLucy Nnane
Nnane and Yvette met at Saint Francis College during their first semester of high school. After a year of being classmates, Yvette traveled to the U.S., and both lost contact since none had a mobile phone at the time. Fast forward to 2015, they both reconnected via Facebook, and in March of 2016, they met for their annual class reunion. Since then, what started as a friendship has grown into a sisterhood (Nchanga and Enoma 🤣🤣🤣) Nnane loves to cook, sing and dance. She also enjoys reading during her free time. Nnane is a scrum master and a student, who is passionate about children and philanthropic work. She is also a YouTuber and an event planner who also doubles as an MC.
