Sarah & Christopher
Wedding Party
Larissa Pena
Matron of Honor
Wassup everyone! My name is Larissa Peña, and I’ve had the blessing of knowing Sarah (AKA Chris’ better half) for the past 3 years. And Chris has been in my life since I was a little fine arts student in high-school. One of my favorite memories with these is eating Maggiano’s and laughing so hard that tears are streaming and our stomachs are aching. There’s nothing more I could ever ask for than to watch two of my very best friends make a covenant to spend the rest of their lives with each other. We get to celebrate ROYALTY #IJustCantWaitToBeKing. LET’S GET THIS PARTY STARTED🎉
Luis Peña
Best Man
Hello Everyone! My name is Luis Peña and Chris has been my Best Friend for over 10 years and is more like a brother to me! One of my favorite moments with Chris is when we got lost in New York City and decided to ride bikes in Central Park at 2am. We found out it was illegal to do but definitely will remember that for the rest of my life. I’m pumped to see Chris and Sarah flourish in their marriage. They compliment each other so well and what I love about them is whatever their vision is or the aspirations they proclaim. It will definitely come to life because of their passion behind it. This will be the best thing of 2021 and can’t wait!!!
Stephanie Rowl
Matron of Honor
I’m Stephanie Rowl! I’ve known Sarah for about 7 years now. One of my favorite things about Sarah is that anywhere we go or are we can ALWAYS laugh. I’ll never forget when we went on a missions trip together to El Salvador and randomly broke out speaking in minion language cause we heard of the word Papusa for the first time and thought it sounded like something a minion would say. Papusa is actually a traditional food eaten in El Salvador but since then we actually call each other Papusa instead of our actual names. Sarah definitely knows how to have a good time and has one of the most selfless hearts in the world! The love story of Sarah and Chris is a beautiful one and I’m so excited for this power couple to be married.
Richie Pena
Best Man
What’s up! My name is Richie Peña and I’ve been Christopher’s Best Friend and Brother for over 10 years! Corny as it sounds, my favorite memory was at our church fine arts competition! When we advanced at the National competition to third rounds and we both celebrated like little kids and I don’t ever remember a greater moment jumping with true joy. To be honest, It was one of my personal favorite memories that had emotions like I haven’t had before and I was able to share it with my brother. Christopher and Sarah are the funniest couple I know. I love that they are able to enjoy the little things about each other. We know how skillfully and gifted they are and also how they compliment each other! Chris and Sarah. You’re the best, I love you guys!
Mallorie Narcisse
Maid of Honor
Ello mate, I’m Mallorie Narcisse. Sarah of course is my best friend but we prefer the term Sista! I’ve known Sarah for 9 years. Some of my favorite moments with Sarah is the way we can talk for ages about any and everything, the way we encourage each other, and the laughs we share are simply the BEST because when we start we can’t stop. Shall I go on…. I’ll wait for the big day! I wish Chris and Sarah all the love, peace, and joy as they become one in marriage. Sincerely yours, Miss. England.
Manuel Nunes

Nicole Stallworth
Bridesmaid
What's poppin y'all! Im Nicole Marie Stallworth and I'm one of Sarah's oldest friends! We went to high school together, but it was when we started interning for the same ministry at church where we became best friends. Sarah is a huge part of my life and I don't know where I would be without her. Her loyalty knows no bounds and her love and acceptance of people is pure. She is the Cristina Yang to my Meredith Grey and I can't wait to stand by her side as she marries Christopher!
Nicholas Stallworth
Groomsman
My Name is Nicholas Stallworth, and I consider Christopher one of my best friends for almost 14 years!! We’ve been there for each other through thick and thin! Chris and I met though singing in a fine arts group, Voices of O-Town. One of the coaches, Jamee Wilson CORNERED me one day and made me PROMISE to be his friend and make sure he had a good time during the competition that week. We’ve been good friends ever since! Sarah and Chris complement each other like two halves of one hole. Chris’ bold carefree creative spirit is balanced out by Sarah’s careful, organized diligence. They both are such beautifully deep humans, that I can always trust to cut up with me or keep it real. I appreciate their union, and am excited for all that is to come!
Attina Shaw
Bridesmaid
Greetings family & friends. I, Attina Shaw have the pleasure of knowing Sarah Shaw for many years now. Sarah is my favorite sister-in-law. I look up to her and she’s always there for a sister. My favorite moment is sitting with her conversing, laughing and enjoying the little things in life. Plus our trips to Starbucks and getting food! I am grateful to have a brother-in-law like Christopher to share and make new memories with his and our family. I would like to say congratulations to both of them on this journey! May it be filled with joy, love, peace and a lifetime of of happiness. Love y’all!!!
Justin Vega
Groomsman
What’s up y’all! My Name is Justin Vega and I have known Chris for 7 years as his student, turned friend. My favorite moments with Chris is the time when he gave me a ride home from church in 2014 when he didn’t even know me and I told him a story about my ex-girlfriend which 2 years later on ended up being his student. In the group she would talk about me and made him not like me until he got to know me. The rest was history! A great thing I can say about Chris and Sarah is that they have always been good to me and has always been there for me when I had my issues with family or a break up and always treated me as if I was their own child. I'm so grateful for them both being in my life and I just can’t wait to see the happy memories they will make in the future!
Mercedes Brown
Bridesmaid
Salutations! I am Mercedes Brown, dear friend of Sarah. It was when she was deservingly promoted to our Director Team at Chick-Fil-A that our friendship truly formed. We were hanging 12 inches from the ceiling on a shelf together at one point! From there, we always laughed, cried, and prayed together. Conversations are so easy that almost every day after we finished our shifts, we would have car talks that lasted about 3 hours maybe more... LOL. Chris and Sarah's love has strengthened over the years that even the most intricate of words could not describe. God truly put these two together because they could move mountains as one. It’s the wedding of the year and I cannot wait to celebrate these two as they commit to each other!
Elias Wallace
Groomsman
Greetings and humble salutations! I am Elias J. Wallace, Chris’ FAVORITE cousin who he has known for 22 years! Chris has been more like a brother to me and some of my favorite moments with him have been anytime we break out in song! He is one of the reasons I got into music, so the fact that we both share a passion for it and the arts, goes deep! I wish nothing but the best for him and Sarah (my soon-to-be cousin) for they will live such a wonderful life and have such a strong marriage as long as God remains in the center of it! Amen! Hallelujah, and won’t he do it! Now let’s have a wedding! Alright, y’all peace out! ✌🏾
Krista Schwartz
Bridesmaid
Sarah has been one of my closest friends for the last 10 years. We met on the day that we got baptized and the rest is history! We bonded over our love for Cadbury chocolate, Italian food, and our crazy Guyanese families! I'm so honored to be standing beside two people I love so much. As Chris would say, Lets Go!!!
Isaiah Wallace
Groomsman
Greetings everyone! My name is Isaiah Wallace. You may have read from my brothers bio that he is Chris’s favorite cousin but that is a lie, I am! I have known Chris for a whopping 18 years! I have so many great memories with my cousin Chris but one memory always comes to mind. Playing zip zap zop during a hurricane is my favorite memory with Chris. Our battle for who likes Mac n Cheese the most will go on forever and will always be one of my favorite qualities that I get to share with my Cousin. I’m very excited for Chris and Sarah due to the fact that I know they will have each other’s backs and fight together through any struggle they may face! That is apart of what love truly is! Have Fun y’all! Wish you the best!
