Anthony Davis-Youngblood

Best Man

It is with great honor and excitement that I have been dubbed ‘Best Man’ for Lexie and Dane’s special day. I was one of the lucky ones to see their relationship blossom, and I knew this day would come eventually. I recently lived with Dane and Lexie for around two years and was sad to see them go. At this rate, I’m half tempted to move across the country just to be near them. That’s how much I love Dane and Lexie. Lexie has impacted me in many ways. She’s seen me at low points, she’s seen me at high points, regardless, she’s always been there for me. I’ve known Lexie for many years, about as long as I’ve known Dane. She honestly has the kindest soul out of anyone I’ve ever met (empath btw). Onto the Dane-o, lordy. I’ve known this man for a long time. Sure, we met in Middle School, but I wasn’t cool enough to be Dane’s friend. He denies it (but I know it’s true). High school was really where Dane and I became close. Quite honestly, those years are somewhat of a blur, but I do recall hanging out with Dane almost every day. From then on, we remained close, and I am filled with joy at the idea that we’ve remained so close. I mean, countless memories with this kid. Above all, these guys are my favorite people in the world. There’s nothing I wouldn’t do for them, and I have proudly earned the title “Uncle Tony,” which is just incredibly heartwrenching. The story of Lexo and Daneo has entered a new chapter, and I am so grateful and proud to be part of it.

Maid of Honor

I am beyond excited to have the role of Lexie's Maid of Honor. Having Lexie as my best friend for almost 15 years has been the greatest blessing. We have shared countless memories, from laughing uncontrollably while playing Just Dance to supporting each other through heartbreaks. Lexie is the most loving, nurturing, and creative person I know. She has a magical way of bringing joy and beauty into everything around her. I've been privileged to witness her dreams for the future since we were 11 years old, imagining her perfect life and partner. Now, seeing those dreams come true with Dane, who is as caring and thoughtful as she always hoped, fills my heart with joy. If only little 6th grade us could see where we are now *cries*. I couldn't be happier for Lexie and Dane as they embark on this beautiful new chapter together. Their love story is a dream come true, and I'm so grateful to be a part of it!

Groomsman

I am thrilled to be a groomsman at my brother's wedding and watch him marry the love of his life. I have many fond memories of us growing up together, like playing sports and drinking from the humming bird feeder. I have always looked up to my older brother and admired his determination and drive, especially when it comes to mobile games. Lexie is the perfect match for Dane. It’s clear that they hold so much love and compassion for one another. Their dynamic complements each other perfectly. I am so proud to watch them start their new life together in Tennessee. I am excited to welcome Lexie into our family and create many more memories.

When I found out Lexie and Dane were engaged i felt super happy i couldn’t believe my big sis is getting married. When i first met Dane i thought he was super funny. Having Lexie as a big sister is the best i couldn’t ask for a better one , i am so excited to be apart of the wedding and create amazing memories and more to come. I’m so happy she found someone that makes her feel loved and happy.

I always knew from the first time I met Lexie that she and Dane were gonna get married. Just the way they acted around each other on top of the fact that she can cook literally anything. Every time I was with them it was visible that they were made for each other. Fast forward to after the moved to Tennessee, I get a random FaceTime call from Dane, doesn’t wanna talk and just keeps saying “We have to wait for Alex to join.” I was a bit confused until we all got in the call and Dane pulls out the ring, me and Alex instantly start yelling “LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO.” We knew it was bound to happen eventually. What we didn’t know was that Lexie and Dane would call us yet again and ask us to be Dane’s groomsmen. I’m super excited to be a part of your guys’ life and can’t wait to see what the future holds for you!!

Bridesmaid

I have been lucky enough to know Lexie for a big part of my life. Since the day we met we became sisters and she holds a very special place in my heart. We got to meet thanks to our chosen family and I am so grateful that our paths crossed, even if we had to work crazy hours and trauma bond over experiences with crazy customers, I would do it all over again. Lexie has taught me what true friendship looks like and to know my Lexie is to love her, so I am not surprised how quickly Dane and Lexie fell in love. The love they share is so special and I am so excited for them to start this new chapter. Being a witness to the special love they share has been a gift and I am so excited to continue to be a part of that journey!

Bridesmaid

When Lexie called me and told me she wanted me to be a bridesmaid in her wedding, our 14 years of friendship played back in my mind: late-night laughs, getting into trouble together, crying over boys together, being girls together—all led to this moment. Lexie and I went from complete strangers to best friends what felt like overnight in middle school. It was easy to be Lexie's friend because she was one of the nicest, most accepting, and non-judgmental friends I’ve had. Lexie has always been there for me through thick and thin, and it’s a privilege to be one of her bridesmaids. Dane has made Lexie so happy and loved, and as her best friend, nothing makes me happier than to see them so happy. They connected at the perfect time, and everything fell into place for them. I couldn’t be happier Lexie found her person. I can’t wait to see what their love story brings and the exciting journeys they have along the way!
