You know those people that seem to simply attract more love than you ever thought possible? They’re completely surrounded with so much love, admiration, and loyalty that you could almost swear you’re watching a movie and not reality. It’s as though they bring out the highest form of sincerity in everyone around them. And you just know… it’s because they themselves radiate so much love and devotion and kindness, that it is simply drawn to them.

Destany and Suleiman are those people.

During the open mic toasts, countless guests got up to share their love for this beautiful couple. It was an endless string of heartfelt praises, tears, and true love that everyone wanted to bless the bride and groom with. I believe it could have gone on for days with the amount of love in that room. These two have truly changed so many lives that that it was only right to allow those people the opportunity to express their gratitude and love.

Suleiman – although we went to high school together, we unfortunately weren’t close enough for me to experience the real you. I’m so blessed to be able to see it now. You show kindness, love, and gratitude to anyone around you in every single thing you do. Your family loves you so deeply. And your friends love you so deeply that they have become your family.

Destany – you are a ray of pure sunshine, full of joy, life, and love. You have the most beautiful soul, and you bring an unexplainable warmth to those around you. That is a quality that’s so rare to find in this world. Please don’t ever lose that.

And to Ellie – the little girl that almost stole the show… you have brought together two different families and made them one. You are so loved and cherished everyone in your life. But most importantly, by your parents. Destany and Suleiman are the most incredible, loving parents. I have no doubt you will be raised in house filled to the roof with love and happiness.

To the beautiful couple… words cannot express how happy I am to see you two celebrate your marriage and become one. God truly spent a little extra time on the two of you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me the privilege and honor of capturing this moment in your lives. And also for allowing me to be a part of your incredible family for the day. I love you guys so much, and I wish you a lifetime of happiness and love. Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Masumbuko!!
