How we met
By the bride, Adetoun:

Ours is a story of how chance encounters can lead to lifelong partnerships. I attended a secondary schoolmate’s wedding on the 30th of December 2017 where I ran into another old friend who was attending the wedding with her husband and his friend ‘Segun’. After spending some time at the wedding, my friend asked if I would join them to another wedding at Federal Palace in VI and I obliged since I wasn’t particularly in a hurry to go home.

At this other wedding, I noticed that Segun was neither dancing nor socializing, and I thought to myself…Ohh this one is feeling too cool for school LOL!. Anyway, when it was time to go home, we were all walking to our cars and Segun walked up to me and asked for my number which I gave him.

Before getting home, we got to chat and he asked if I’d like for us to meet up and get further acquainted. I obliged once again, and we met up once again literally at the third location within the day of the meeting and we just kept talking till the next day and for all the other days afterwards. At the tail end of the pandemic and the peak of flight cancellations he had to book multiple flights to be able to come into the country to see me and during this visit he asked that I marry him and of course, my answer was YES!
