Happy Birthday Som

Happy birthday to my darling girl.

Chisom, it's been over five years since you came into my life with all the sweet and wit that you are. Ever since I met you at the Lion's den, I've often wondered how one person can be such a perfect blend of grace and beauty.

On my wedding day, I want to be surrounded by godly women. Friends who know what love really means and who inspire me to be the best version of myself. Som,we prayed together as undergrads in the University of Nigeria, it would give me so much joy if you would pray with me again as I start the most important journey of my life.

In the past few months, we've shared so much in the good gang. And I have come to truly appreciate the girl that you were and the gracious lady you have become. And we were at that sleep over when Ray came to take me on a date and end up proposing to me. Oh well, I'm sorry I ditched y'all to get engaged. Lol. We could always go to the beach again but I could never find another man like him.

Thing is, I need you on my wedding day, there are so many bridal dresses to choose from and so many different colors that I love. You are one color I want by my side on my special day.

Som, will you be my bridesmaid???????

Classic Naija & Foreign Wedding Songs

Hey lovelies, Your wedding day is drawing close, you’ve dreamt of the perfect day. Your bridesmaids are all pretty, the venue’s been reserved, you found the perfect bouquet, Naija jollof rice is on your menu, and your man has even agreed to wear a pink tie, lol. One thing remains; you’ve still not found that magical song that would turn your first dance with le boo into a living fantasy. That song that captures your entire relationship and tells the story of your love for each other. Well, don’t stress it. I gat you! So, in my work as an M.C, I’ve encountered some really embarrassing dance moments for a couple. Now, I usually advice couples to make a list of favorite songs they'd love to hear on their wedding day and ensure the DJ has them before the day. This one time, it was time for the couple’s first dance. The couple told me they’d requested a special song for their first dance. But when I signaled the D.J to play their special song, I nearly had a heart attack. In a

Holla Lovelies, November 11th was a success by all standards.  The day my awesome  fiancé, Raymond,  graced Udi with his Umu n n a, to take me home   to A n iocha, as  wife. The night before, I laid out all my outfits after my choreography rehearsals, with plans to get some long beauty sleep.            Almost like clockwork, I was up at first cock-crow, excited to finally be getting married to the love of my life. Bye bye beauty sleep. I had my morning devotion which was mostly thanking God that the day had finally come for my journey into married life to begin. We had a pra yer walk round my father's house. My darling Ebube was with me all the way. She's a blessed woman. I took my sweet time to get ready for my first outing, and I stepped out gracefully, in the company of my sisters, to greet my in-laws & everyone present. For my second outing, I wore the sparkling 'Akwa Ocha', as a Delta bride. It was

The heavens held their rains, the sun was mild and soothing. There were lots to eat (especially abacha) & drink (including palm wine) 😂 My coordination team @mcoliviaevents1 was superb. I had three colorful outings, including the beautiful akwa-ocha as a new Delta Bride. My boo nearly beat me on the dance floor but it was a draw. lol. We rematch at the white wedding soon.
