This seems like a really cool deck! It seems like a cool way to capitalize off of a strong life gain strategy. As much as I love Reya Dawnbringer I might consider looking at Ravos, Soultender for a cheaper cmc option. The only downside to him is that creatures return to hand instead of to the battlefield.

Danitha Capashen, Paragon you run enough equipment for the ability to be useful.

Reya Dawnbringer you are running some serious fatties.

Pulsemage Advocate similar to that Marshalls Anthem but free. Breath of Life/Resurrection might be worth a spot.

Chivalric Alliance easy and efficient card draw.

Crackdown mean.

Reya Dawnbringer along with the playset of sorcery reanimation spells like Breath of Life.

Green has lots of stuff like Noxious Revival and Bala Ged Recovery  ^Flip that can get your Shivan out of the graveyard, and as I've pointed out there are some White cards that let you reanimate it if it's dead (or iirc take it out of exile if someone exiles it, with Pull from Eternity).

I looked up to see if there were some more decent White reanimator effects, there is Karmic Guide (also provides a blocker), Defy Death (pretty bad), Invoke Justice (better but how do you cast this!), Enduring Renewal (really, really janky), Second Sunrise (very situational), Angelic Renewal (seems good), Breath of Life (solid), Cleric Class (mana hungry/low synergy with deck), Elspeth Conquers Death (maybe?), False Defeat ($$$), Late to Dinner (good), Marshal's Anthem (mana!), Miraculous Recovery (good), Resurrection (fine), Reya Dawnbringer (so much mana). There is probably a few more, but here is a starting point, I think with your Commander the Sorcery ones make a lot of sense, but a creature that can repeatedly reanimate Shivan seem like better fits but I don't know how annoying it will be to Egg into them.

Keeping up with the mono-white train, looking for some cuts/cards for my Celestine deck:

Mean Celestine Life-Gaining Machine

I'm probably going to stray away from reanimating fatties for the most part and focusing on EtBs for value. Planning on making space for Tocasia's Welcome, Fanatical Devotion and potentially others. Probably going to cut Archangel of Tithes and Reya Dawnbringer for more efficient cards.

You can’t actually use Persist to bring back Reya Dawnbringer because persist says NON legendary creature.

Thanks for the comments and questions, Guerric!

Well, so far, I've only had Marshal's Anthem come up once in a game, but when it did, it was sweet. Of course, that was mid-game, and I had plenty of mana, so I was able to get back several angels. I do know, however, from long experience with the card, that it can be hit-and-miss. The thing I like about it is the potential for mass recursion in mono-{W}. I do have my eye on it, though. I run Karmic Guide and Reya Dawnbringer and Emeria, The Sky Ruin already, but my Avacyn deck is hogging my Bruna, the Fading Light  ^Meld.

If it is a question of either-or, I would recommend Together Forever over Marshal's Anthem.

This deck is still pretty new, so I've not actually drawn Speaker of the Heavens yet. It has been good in my Avacyn deck for a while, though, and I can only think it will be better in Giada.

Victory's Herald is a blast for the lifelink, and Sanctuary Warden is a gem!

Decent angel deck. You could add some utility creatures in there as well like Angel of Finality, Emeria Shepherd, Karmic Guide, Reya Dawnbringer, or Twilight Shepherd. I have a decent white control deck that uses a wide variety of mechanics that could find there way into this deck. I was attempting to stay on brand for your deck with my suggestions, but if you want some other ideas you're welcome to check out my mono white deck The Wrath
