Jummai & Jide’s journey to #JJUnion started when she took her wig off in public. The couple shared their love story and pictures from their pre-wedding shoot with wedding photographers, Awgz and JOP Studios. Enjoy!
Our love story (by the bride)
We both had a mutual friend and we met a couple of times when we all hung out but he didn’t notice me till he saw me take my wig off in public. He asked for my number in the presence of my friend and then the “chyking” began. I said no to him but later I then said yes after about 3 months of forming hard to get which was clearly not working. We started dating officially.
I got to know him to an extent as we were spending more time together. I think what drew my attention to his kind nature was the way he treated his staff with respect and he was very considerate with them. As I knew him better, I started loving the person he is. We dated for over 2 years before he proposed.
The Proposal
He woke me up from sleep, I opened my eyes and saw a ring. I blanked out for a few seconds because I didn’t honestly understand what was happening lol. The next thing he said was “You make me a better man, I’ve never been this happy with anyone, I know you still have a lot you want to accomplish but I promise this wouldn’t interfere with that. I will be your guide and support for life. Will you marry me?
I was just smiling sheepishly and now we are on a journey to forever
