Amber Shanté & Nathanael Samuel
Wedding Party
Tisha Thompson
Matron of Honor
Tisha is the big sister that all little sisters need in their life. From the moment Amber entered the world (nearly 10 years after her) she was on top of those big sister responsibilities. She was the one who gave Amber her name, which she chose in honor of one of her childhood best friends. So we all know that only meant she was waiting anxiously for another lifelong best friend and sister. For Amber's entire life Tisha has been a constant and reliable force. She is not only one of the strongest and smartest women that everyone knows, but an inspiration for the woman Amber always aims to be!
Eric Harvey
Best Man
Eric and Sammy have been friends for nearly 9 years after first meeting at Kennesaw State University. When he's not working hard as microbiologist by day, you'll probably find him at home being a grill master. There is something to say about a real friend who is dependable, loyal, handles business, but can also debate on which old school R&B artists has the best album any day of the week.
Ashley Thompson
Bridesmaid
Ashley and Amber have been sisters since 1997, and met at the tender age of 7 and 5. This was all thanks to their brother Clarence and sister Tisha meeting in high school back in Woodbridge, VA and the rest was history. Ashley is the Aquarius sister and Amber is the Capricorn sister, and if you are not aware--The Capricorn/Aquarius relationship is quite complex. Although Capricorns and Aquarius' may seem like complete opposites, when they are together they are a force and unstoppable (just ask about how we almost took over the internet in the mid 2000s lol!) Ashley has been a sister and friend and continues to be one of the most important people in Amber's life.
Junior Delille
Groomsman
Junior is the middle Delille brother. He is full of life, passion, and soul. He is the brother that has all the artistic ability and the one that lives life unapologetically. As Sammy watched Junior grow over the years, he has always admired Junior's dedication and determination for his craft and talents. If its not Junior's warming personality, his smile will definitely win you over.
Florence Herring
Bridesmaid
Flo, also known as "Young Flo," (only Amber calls her this) is a beautiful person inside and out. Flo and Amber once started as neighbors in the dorms at Kennesaw State University, and it wasn't until years later they became line sisters. Florence is that down friend that Amber loves with all of her heart. When Amber and Flo are together the room is filled with laughter and pure joy. Amber admires Flo's passion for life and dedication to being one of the most loyal people that she knows. This relationship is one that Amber will cherish for a lifetime.
Gabriel Delille
Groomsman
Gaby is the baby Delille brother and the family's future attorney. He is extremely intelligent and passionate about all things politics, law, and sports. Sammy and Gaby are the biggest LeBron enthusiasts and during the finals you will definitely catch both of them yelling at the TV as if they are on the court. Sammy and his little brother Gaby have the kind of relationship all little and big brothers should have.
Rakeya Thompson
Bridesmaid
Rakeya is one of the sweetest souls to bless this planet. She makes a mean margarita but that is besides the point; listen this woman's energy is one of an angel on earth. Amber describes Rakeya as a real catch for the family, and feels extremely lucky to have an additional sister that is one of the coolest people on this earth. No exaggerations here, Amber loves and adores her sis!
Caleb Mclean
Groomsman
Caleb and Sammy have been friends for 10 years. The two met back in upstate New York and were neighbors, and now best friends. Caleb is literally as smart as a rocket scientist (yes, he majored aerospace engineering), but his passion for music creation and producing will change the world . You can find Caleb in the studio making the next billboard hit.
Makayla Nutt
Bridesmaid
Amber and Makayla have a best-friendship for the books! The two met back in 6th grade, where their lockers were adjacent to one another. They shared the same Biology homeroom, and even were assigned to seats right next to one another. Makayla and Amber were inseparable and everyone knew it. If one was there the other was right behind if not on the way. These two were beyond peas in a pod, they were friend soulmates! Amber and Makayla's bond is one for this lifetime and will never be broken. We are in this thing 'til infinity.
Caleb Seales
Groomsman
Caleb and Sammy met at Kennesaw State University 8 years ago. They both were in the same business fraternity, but at the time little did they know life would bring opportunities for them to continue to work together over the years. The determined and steadfast duo have always looked out for each other and had one another's back. Caleb is a seasoned Film Director/Cinematographer but on a chill day you may find him on a lake peacefully fishing.
Tatiana O'hara
Bridesmaid
Tati is a real one, who Amber quite frequently thinks, "How did she survive life without knowing Tati for so long?" Tatiana is not only an inspiration but literally one of the funniest down to earth people that Amber knows. Amber and Tati are the epitome of a friendship that is not about the length of time you know someone but the impact that one makes on your life in such a short time. This relationship is the type of relationship that fulfills your life and Amber is blessed to have such a meaningful friendship in Tati.
Jordan Speaks
Groomsman
Jordan and Sammy met almost a decade ago, and were college roommates at Kennesaw State University. The two are always joking, laughing, and plotting on the next international couples trip they should take next with their beautiful significant others. Jordan is the computer/tech guy, but among other things he is a handyman and can put together just about anything. The bond they have built over the years is one that Sammy will cherish for a lifetime.
CJ and Christian Thompson
Ring Bearer
Cj and Christian are Amber’s cute and precious nephews. They love to hang out with Aunt Amber and soon to be Uncle Sammy. If they’re not on Xbox live you may find the boys trying to beat Amber and Sammy at a game of basketball or out dance the couple during one of their intense dance battles. Cj and Christian are the coolest kids you may ever meet.
