Hafou & Khabane’s Gorgeous Côte d’Ivoire Wedding

Hafou and Khabane met in college at Stony Brook University, New York, USA in 2011. The college sweethearts got engaged 4 years later in the city.

She said, “he proposed in this really nice restaurant Ai Fiori in New York City on October 18 2015 – it was just the two on us. We had a private table and the entire restaurant was aware. It was a great surprise.”

The cute couple tied the knot in a multi-day ceremony in Côte d’Ivoire full of festivities and love.
