Love was Just One Phone Call Away! Abisola & Tobi’s Lovestory + Vibrant Pre-wedding Shoot!

Abisola and Tobi are getting us in our feelings. The relationship between the two simply started with a phone call. Their lovestory kicked off when Abisola received a call from a strange number who happened to be Tobi, calling to wish her a happy birthday after seeing her picture on his friend’s BBM display picture.

Who knew love was just a call away!  After a few years of dating, the couple is super excited about saying their “I do’s”. The beautiful duo looked incredibly beautiful in their pre-wedding shoot that was captured by Awgzzz. We love the colours and the exciting beautiful kente outfit of the couple.

Counting down to #TobiSola18!

How We Met
By the bride-to-be, Abisola

Six years ago, precisely on my birthday, I received a call from an unknown MTN line wishing me a happy birthday. It was strange but then within the first few minutes of this conversation was a stranger on the other end, I was laughing really hard. Here I was, wondering why a total stranger could have me so cracked up in a few minutes. It was totally different as he would just switch from speaking eloquently in English to his hilarious Yoruba sentences(normally, this would tick me off but with him, I actually found it funny).

He eventually went on to explain how he had seen my picture on a mutual friend’s display picture on BBM and from there got my number. Well, after that call, he certainly got my BBM pin, like who would say no to such a funny and presumably harmless gent. Our friendship started from there, and in those days, he’d come to check up on me and be acting like a daddy. Our friendship went for about two to three years, then he would tease me, saying things like “better ask me out now before another responsible lady does the needful”. After some years, I think he finally realized that he had all he wanted right here with me, and at that moment we became official.
