Right now I am struggling with way to either cheat these high cost cards out or by somehow generating enough mana to support their costs. At the moment I'm looking at lands such as: Emeria, The Sky Ruin Nykthos, Shrine to Nyx Seraph Sanctuary
I was hoping you guys would have some ideas for me because my knowledge of MTG cards is subpar. Thanks so much!
I'd try to run something like the 5 color Humans deck out there right now and 4Aether Vial to cheat your Angels in. I'd concentrate on 4 cmc mana Angels and below save maybe one or two copies of Sigarda, Host of Herons
Then to cheat in your 4 or 5 cmc angels 4 copies of Descendants' Path along with the Vials. Forget about being cutesy with Odric too.
I'm not sure the deck would be fast or necessarily good or even competitive but it could have the following as the backbone
Playing since 1994: Currently MAGS (HomeBrew),Standard & Pauper (Pioneer and Modern are degenerate trash formats)
STOP using "dude/bro" as a pejorative or insult. Grow up.
Margaret Thatcher: “The problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other people's money.”
Benjamin Franklin: "Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety."
Martin Luther King Jr.: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
Gisela, the Broken Blade
Bruna, the Fading Light
Sunblast Angel
Angel of Jubilation
Sublime Archangel
Angel of Invention...etc.

Just a thought. Again, don't think its fast enough or strong enough as Angel tribal just doesn't seem to have enough chops. But good luck.

Otherwise, green with Descendant's path + nykthos in your mana base seems like your best bet as shown above (I'd run at least 12 low cost angels).
Unfortunately this won't ever really be good in modern; angels are just too slow.
