Meet the Pearsons


The Pearsons, Latora & Demarkus met in college. The pair became fast friends.


Friendship eventually grew into like, and like blossomed into love.


Like many couples who were planning to have a 2020 wedding, COVID thwarted their initial efforts.

Four years, and a newborn later, these two decided they no longer wanted to wait.


After enlisting the help of Kustom Events wedding coordinators, the Pearsons were able to throw the wedding of their dreams.


Both wedding and reception were held at the Tuxedo Ballroom.


Decor was provided by Posh Event Designs.


Tuxedo Ballroom is located on Birmingham's West Side, and is a part of the city's revitalization efforts to bring more businesses and entertainment venues in the Ensley Entertainment District
