| Cotton (A.k.a. The Monster) |

 |
| Though not technically an Attendant in the wedding, Cotton deserves a special mention here as he assisted Adrian in the delivery of the Engagement ring. On Valentines Day (1:00 am) Adrian grabbed the little beast and tied the engagement ring around his head with a small red ribbon. He then took the monster upstairs and placed him on the bed with Nicole announcing the he had a Valentines day present for Coka. As he walked directly toward Nicole, Adrian proposed and Nicole pulled the covers over her head and started to scream with Joy. Cotton was startled, and began to run away. Luckily Adrian was able to seize him and recover the ring. Cotton returned a few minutes later, once Coka had calmed down. |
