Our vendor – Ginika of RTM Beauty & Makeup Studio had her traditional wedding in Uli, Anambra state, Nigeria a few months ago.
Ginika & Okey shared her love story with us and pictures from their cute engagement shoot captured by Lemmy Vedutti Photography. We love how happy they look.
Enjoy!!
Our story
Okey started asking me out when I was in 100 level. He got to know about me through my roommate. At that time my mind was occupied with so much that I had little or no interest in him.
5years down the line, he paid me a visit, I guess that didn’t make any difference with regards to how I felt about him but he persevered and as time went on, I got to know more about him and we started talking more and more. I then decided to give him a chance.
On the 23rd of March 2015, I organized a birthday party for him, little did I know he wanted to use the opportunity to propose to me. I had invited friends and family to the birthday party. When we were all done eating, he knelt down in the midst of everyone with the most beautiful wedding ring I’ve ever seen and popped the question.
The joy I felt in my heart knew no bounds. I was short of words and only managed to say the words “Yes I will marry you.” I really cannot explain how I felt that faithful day.
Here we are today ready to walk down the aisle…???
