Carla and D. Tyrell’s Love Story

Hear from the bride and groom in their own words how this special day became:

“I was attending a company’s Christmas Party in December of 2002, when I saw her pretty face, style, and the way she presented herself, Carla immediately caught my undivided attention, and I was certainly interested and curious to know her better. After a few dates, I knew she was wife material; however, it would take experiencing life, maturing, and a lot of prayers, to realize that when we reconnected 12-years later. God put her in my life for a reason, and this time I was going to listen, follow my heart, and His will for our lives. I feel I can trust Carla with my innermost secrets. I love her kindness. I admire her patience, generosity, and playfulness. She has a sense of fun and strength of will. I love how she can stand her ground and face difficult conversations.” – D. Tyrell

“If I could rewrite I Corinthians 13:4-7; it would read: D. Tyrell is patient, D. Tyrell is kind. He does not envy, he does not boast, he is not proud. He does not dishonor others, he is not self-seeking, he is not easily angered, he keeps no record of wrongs. D. Tyrell does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. He always protects, always trusts, always hope, always perseveres. The moment I was affected by his infectious laugh and kind words, he made me feel an emotion I could embrace for a lifetime. In this chaotic world, the mere thought of D. Tyrell brings me peace and comfort. I feel honored to marry a man with a great sense of spiritual values, which is very important in both of our lives. I love admiring his handsome face, smile, and impish grin. He’s a very compassionate, loving, great dancer, and boy can he cook! “ – Carla

“We reconnected at his 40th birthday party, hosted by his mother, in December 2014. During the month of December, we found ourselves spending quite a bit of time together, and decided to explore the option of dating again. The year of dating was a wonderful experience for us both. During our courtship, we developed an unbreakable friendship, love, and appreciation for one another.
We believe that marriage is a commitment and that it requires work and growth. It means creating mutual trust and safety, sharing joy and sorrow, and making space for individual growth.
We are family oriented and would like to thank our parents and other family members for their unconditional support towards our union. We want to acknowledge our friends, each and every one of you are very special to us.’’
– D. Tyrell and Carla
