#BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_011#BBNWonderland bride Titilope was so excited when she won the Atunbi Photography package at BellaNaija Weddings and Baileys Nigeria‘s WONDERLAND on 10/10/2015! The package includes this stunning pre-wedding shoot, wedding photography and a keepsake photo album.

Two weeks later – this past Sunday, Atunbi Adesanmi, founder and lead photographer, captured the couple in their element at the bride’s family house in Lagos. Titi and her family made Atunbi and his team feel right at home, as her lovely mother spoilt them with special Sunday rice!

Titi’s love story started out in a situation many ladies are in – she put Shola in the ‘friend zone’ for over a year, and then lied she had a boyfriend when he asked her out … how time flies, they are getting married in December.

Enjoy their pre-wedding shoot and love story !

Our Love Story
by Titi, the bride#BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_041We met at a karaoke bar. Naturally I do not give my number out in random places, and I think it’s stupid to give a fake number when you can just be honest; but some weird feeling in me (plus my friend eyeing me at the corner) made me do it.#BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_7U7C6543We then started off as friends. Over a year later, he took me out one particular day and asked me to be his girlfriend. #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_7U7C6469 #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_106I probably should have started off introducing myself to you – then, I did not know what it was like to “date”. Friendship I’m great at, but dating… ‘Ki lon je be?’ (translation: what is that?).

So the weird Titi kicked in and my knee-jerk reaction made me say I was already taken. I mean I was comfortable at the friend-zone and wasn’t expecting more.Plus, I just came back from my vacation and an old crush was still talking about having feelings for me. However, Shola was determined and relentless. He teased that my “American boyfriend” wouldn’t last and went from regular friend to amazing sweetheart – I honestly couldn’t resist.#BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_7U7C6492#BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_titil1 #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_titi1aI accepted this first proposal and then the real one came the following year on my birthday. I never do anything special, but he did that for me which already blew me away. The details of that day are so hilarious, but close to our hearts; I can’t wait to tell our kids *hehe*.#BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_032In short, he finally made it to one knee (after most of the alcohol had been passed out), asked me to be his wife, I said YES! #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_7U7C6292 #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_7U7C6250We kissed, and he got up and to everyone that passed he introduced me as his wife. He is indeed a good man and I thank God every day for hooking me up big time.#BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_010 #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_7U7C6218 #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_017 #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_007 #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_023 #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_7U7C6231 #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_055 #BBNWonderland Bride Titilope & Shola Pre-Wedding Shoot in Lagos_Atunbi Photography_BellaNaija Weddings 2015_7U7C6329
