“We feel your soulmate comes once in a lifetime. We are best friends before anything. We both believe in God and that he brought us together. We share all our secrets and we do everything together. The fun we have always keeps our relationship fresh”
-Jamar and Ebony
Jamar Fann and Ebony Wright have been dating for 2 years. They have set their wedding date to be August 2, 2015. They stated that the date was significant because it was the first time they met.
When did you know that he/she was the one?
Ebony- As a child I always had dreams of a guy’s hand and when I shook his hand I knew he was the one. It was love at first site.
Jamar- When I saw her for the first time at work. I told everyone she is off limits, she is mine. She was different from any other girl I had ever dated and she won my heart.
Where do you see yourselves in 5 years?
Jamar- In a new house with children and still going strong.
“We have found our twin flames in one another. Neither was looking, but The Creator had other plans. We love together. We meditate together. We hold one another accountable and we plan to love for as long as this life allows.”
-Erica and Roger
Roger and Erica Rowe were married on August 30, 2014. They knew each other 6 months prior to their engagement and were engaged for 6 months before they wedding. Erica is a published photographer and Roger is a music producer. They are located in Memphis, TN.
What is the moment you will remember most from your wedding?
Erica: I remember getting ready to walk down the aisle and feeling the spirit of my mother in approval. We chose August 30 as our wedding date because it was the day before the 1 year anniversary of my mother’s transition. I wanted to surround that moment with all the love I could find. Her smile was in the beat of the African drums that played in celebration of our union.
