LaKeisha and Arthur had a royal affair on November 5, 2016 when they tied the knot in front of their family and friends in Florida. Their first dance was to “You” by Raheem  Davaughn.  The love between the couple is evident not only through these amazing images by AVD (ARTISTIC VISION & DESIGN) but through the unspoken words and sentiments of love that exude from the images.

How their history began:

LaKeisha and Arthur’s love story didn’t begin until 4 years after their initial meeting.  In 2007 the couple met through a mutual friend at a night club. They had such a great time that night that they decided to exchange numbers. The following day Duke called LaKeisha and the two, well three because she had her sister with her, met up for lunch.   For the next few months, they hung out from time to time; it was during these occurrences that Duke told LaKeisha, “you’re going to be my wife.”   She laughed it off and said, “Please, you just met me!”   For years the two would cross paths, however, timing always seemed to be an issue. When Facebook gained further popularity in 2010, LaKeisha sent Duke an inbox message. The two reconnected and the rest is history.  After years of dating and traveling the globe, On September 5, 2015, Duke finally made good on his promise and asked LaKeisha to be his wife.

LaKeisha  wore a sweetheart neckline ball gown which she chose to accentuate her décolletage.  As a little girl LaKeisha always imagined herself in a ball gown on her wedding day to complete her fairy-tale.

Her advice to fellow Coordinated Brides is to simple “Do what YOU want to do!”
