Now, this is a classy affair. I don't what their current profession is seem happy. That's sweet. When my husband and I first got engaged we were sooooo terrified that our engagement would fail due to the stress of getting married...we had some "moments" but overall it made us stronger...plus, we bonded more. Marriage is awesome if you find your mate...there's no such thing as "the perfect mate" but there a such thing called a "compatible match"...Money and a degree doesn't matter but it does help to marry someone on your level...
It’s a match made in championship history. Former Superbowl Champ Aaron Ross of the NY Giants and Olympic Gold Medalist in Track and Field Sanya Richards tied the knot recently in Austin, TX.
The couple married the weekend of Sanya’s 25th birthday–February 26th. The deets on the wedding and guest list: The 500 person lavish and simply beautiful reception went down at the Four Seasons Austin. It was all one big party –wedding reception and Sanya’s b-day bash hosted by Fonzworth Bentley, and with Ryan Leslie and Dorrough performing.
Their sporty celeb friends Roy Williams of the Dallas Cowboys, Corey Webster, Ahmad Bradshaw, Michael Johnson and many more for the New York Giants, track legend Carl Lewis, as well as others.
The two tweeted about their honeymoon in Dubai. Their wedding will air on an upcoming episode of “Platinum Weddings” (anybody else addicted to Wedding Sundays on the We channel?).
More pics and deets on the breathtaking dress and jewels when you read the rest….
The beautiful bride was married in St Pucci Couture and donned over $1 million of jewelry, including her 10 carat VVS wedding rings and accessories from jeweler Martin Katz. She changed into a gold sequined Kevan Hall gown, and then changed again into a short Ines DiSanto dress to celebrate her b-day. The Groom handsomely rocked a custom Giorgio Armani tux for his big day. Congrats to the Newlyweds!
Congrats nice to see a sucessful black couple come together and make it happen. PS..RealRoxanne your comments regarding the black race is disgusting I can't believe your "Lightskinned African American" mother has taught you so much distain for your own people. You may have a white father but to most white people you are still black and they won't hesitate to remind you
@me34, You 1 of his old hoochies that thought being light was gone win you over??Because that comment makes no sense at all. Because for 1 she's not even dark she's caramel and she's beautiful with a gorgeous smile but He is dark and he fine as F**k.
You act like being light skinned is impossible, people bleach their skin everyday. Being light or dark does not make you pretty being pretty makes you pretty and both of them are gorgeous, just the way they are.
@me34
Did you say being light brings you class and prestige??????lol WhereDeyDoDatAt?
Girl venture out of you're little silly @$$ box and explore the world. Because being light has obviously got you NO WHERE but in your town if that's how you think.
Sanya Richards is not only classy but beautiful, rich and married. She has seen and did more things than you ever will. So sit in your house and be light and have fun posting on here for the rest of your life. lol But remember her name means something and represents two countries and you well, keep being light and bright.
Now that is a GOOD look. I'm luvin it!! Nothin like a beautiful black couple. I sure hope it lasts.
PS ...that brutha is FOINEEEEE.....YESSS HUNNIE...I WOULD .... ----- ... MMMMM
oops, forgot he's married now...promised myself i will not harbour dirty thoughts about married men in 2010...I DIGRESS! LMAO
@me34 Biotch i wish you would sit ya hatin azz DOWN! You sound like an ignorant [EXPLETIVE]. Being light skinned does not bring you class and based on what you been typing in this thread - you're a perfect example of that!
YOU SOUND MAD AS HELL, DISGRUNTLED....ONCE AGAIN....
BIOTCH...DOWN!
TCI 4 LYFE!!
WE DONT NEED FANCY EXPENSIVE WEDDINGS WE NEED MARRIAGES THAT LAST AND BLACK COUPLES WHO RESPECT EACH OTHER A TRUE GOOD STRONG BLACK WOMAN WOULD TELL HER MAN THEIRS NO NEED TO WAIST LOTS OF MONEY ON A WEDDING WE CAN USE THAT MONEY FOR IMPORTANT THINGS LIKE OUR KIDS FUTURE ARE BUSINESS DEALS TO MAKE MORE MONEY AND A TRUE BLACK MAN EVEN IF HE IS RICH WOULDNT WAIST THAT MUCH MONEY NO MATTER WHAT JUST TO IMPRESS PEOPLE THE WEDDING SHOULD BE ABOUT YOU AND YOUR WOMAN AGREEING ON LOVING EACH OTHER FOREVER BILL GATES ONLY SPENT FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ON HIS WEDDING AND HE IS A BILLIONAIRE.WEAK BLACK
ME34 A CREOLE IS PERSON WHO IS MIXED WITH MANY DIFFERENT BLOODS DECENED FROM USED BY WHITE MEN BLACK WOMEN AND SOME ARE DECENDEDS OF FRENCH QUARTER PROSTITUTES WHO GOT PREGGO BY THEIR JOHNS,BEING LIGHT SKIN MAKES YOU CHEAP ANYTHING MIXED IS CHEAPER THAN THE PURE STUFF THE DARKER A BLACK PERSONS SKIN THE LESS MIX THEY HAVE IN THEM.DARK SKIN BLACK WOMEN WHO TAKE CARE OF THEMSELVES EXERCISE HARD AND RUN EVERY DAY AND EAT HEALTHY REIGN SUPREME EVERY BODY WITH SENSE HAVE GOTTEN OVER THAT LIGHT SKIN BULLSHET.LIGHT SKIN WOMEN MAKE THE WORST MATES FOR A BLACK MAN WHITE MEN KNOW THIS WHY DO YOU THINK
CONT,WHITE PRODUCERS ONLY USE HALLIE BERRY IN SEXUAL EXPLICIT MOVIES CAUSE THEY KNOW MIXED LIGHT SKIN WOMEN IS ONLY GOOD TO USE AS A JUMP OFF DUMB BROTHERS ARE LIGHT SKIN ADDICTED IN AND OUT OF A BUNCH OF PROBLEMS WITH THEM RED BITCHES,A LIGHT SKIN WOMAN IS JUST AS PREJUDICE AGAINST A GOOD LOOKING DARK SKIN BLACK WOMAN AS ANY RACIST WHITE WOMAN,
People, pick a day to HATE black women and stick with it..okay? Can we just embrace a good looking couple and their union WITHOUT all the #shade?? Do u black-women-haters ever take a day off?? No? IT makes no sense to hate on a post where both the BLACK MAN and the BLACK WOMAN is winning..smh. Some of u are just retards with keyboards. Damn u Blue Hippo and ur Rent-To-Own computer giveaways!!! Gov't assistance brings out the worst in some of u..no class at all..SMH.
@TheRealRuckus Sweetie, u must learn to be an Equal Opportunity Offender..The Sanaa Lathan and Stacey Dash post were full of BLACK MEN bytching, whining, and complaining..If whining doesn't look good on sistas, it doesn't look good on brothas either. Some of u brothas try to act hard by going in on the sistas and somehow "forget" to address the black men who do the same shyt.. #ImJustSaying
@me34, R u addressing me?? Old? Is that the BEST u can do? That statement makes no sense, because growing old is inevitable <<<look it up. It's the GROWING UP part that some of us, urself included, choose to bypass. DO NOT address me with ur GED mindset. Becaue unlike u, I look in the mirror everday and admire what I see. U know the even greatest part of looking in the mirror..?? Is that I have a MAN staring behind me admiring what he sees as well. If u had that type of admiration, I GUARANTEE U, u wouldn't have to put down others. Lonely azz bish....
Beautiful wedding and love that wedding cake that has so many tiers I can't even count them all draped in edible flowers. Simply Lovely! I wish that people would be more aware of their facial expressions at wedding functions, because her brides maids may be mistaken of not being completely thrilled for Aaron and Sanya the way their faces are twisted up in the background of the bride, but black love is beautiful and when it's rich it's even more beautiful. Congrats to them once again!!!
@donthateonthegreat
"And this just proves that there are still some black men marrying black women"
Most black men are marrying black women, I have no idea where you got the word "some" from.
According to statistics for every 100 black males that get married only 5 of time get married to white women. ONLY 5 OUT OF 100.
That stereotype really kills me, I hate getting stereotyped for wanting white women.
This is what I think of white women
[link to external website removed]
Not all black men want a becky for the 12479187184718478124 th time.
I truly hope that they are REALLY happy, and the wedding was beautiful and all...but I'll be FAR more impressed to see them celebrate their 25th Anniversary. Professional athletes + wedding = Drama. Especially, with these younger guys nowadays. Too involved with pleasing the many, than focusing on the desires of the few...meaning their families. Ask Mr Woods, Mr Jordan, Mr Bryant, Mr O'Neal...
That's a very lavish wedding and they're both attractive but we need more Black doctors, lawyers, and bankers. I mean I'm proud and all that Black people can pay for such big events but dude is an NFL athlete, of course they can afford it. We need more people to make it into the millions using their brains instead of their muscle
I completely understand biggin' us up and acknowledging that we can do it big too however let's not exaggerate. Aaron is a multi-millionaire on his own but he isn't close to being one of the highest paid corners in football and his new bride isn't a multi-millionaire in any shape or form. Winning a gold medal alone doesn't make you rich. I'm not comparing her ability but rather how she is marketed and she has not been Marion Jones like (although she no longer has that money). Let's not get carried away.
@ME34 You stupid ignorant self hating idiot, if he wanted a so call "light skinned so call dime", women i am sure that he had many throwing themselves on him. But unlike you he is not caught up in the light skin,dark skin crap he married her because he loves her OK. Anyway Jamaica to the world!!! SANDRA YA LOOK SWEET NO LIE, NUFF STRENGTH IN THE FUTURE FOR YOUR MARRIAGE. P.S MAKE SOME ATHLETIC BABIES LOL.
