According to PEOPLE, the couple’s wedding was held at Sandlewood Manor in Tomball, Texas and a few celebrities who are friends of the newlyweds like: Patti Labelle and Stevie Wonder sent a video message on their special day.
Major and Nichelle planned their big day in under five months after getting engaged in late December. Major shared details of the heartfelt engagement he planned, surprising Nichelle while the couple were on a date at the movie theater.
Major told PEOPLE he met Nichelle — who is his high school best friend’s cousin — in 2002. He took her on a date to Olive Garden the summer after he graduated, but things didn’t go exactly as planned.
“She didn’t give me much play and said I was too old fashioned,” he says. “Who isn’t blown away by flowers and free breadsticks? I said she’ll be back, and three years ago, we reconnected at a wedding where I sang at. Clearly: SHE’S BACK!”
Major said he knew Nichelle was the one when he asked her how many kids she’d like and she replied, “However many you give me.”
“Chills ran up and through my body,” he says. “In that moment, I knew she was my forever.”
Well, cheers to forever. Congratulations, Major and Nichelle!
