Love often comes with an overwhelming sense of peace — one that’s just too beautiful to ignore. Fisayo and Chigozie’s white wedding perfectly captured that feeling.

These lovebirds, who once had huge crushes on each other back in secondary school, have now fulfilled a long-time dream of becoming life partners. They exchanged vows in an elegant white wedding ceremony, and it was nothing short of magical.

Fisayo brought a pristine bridal glow, and with her sweetheart looking dapper by her side, they truly looked like characters straight out of a fairytale. Their special day was filled with love, joy, and all the beauty that comes with saying “I do” to forever. You sure want to take it all in as you scroll.

Their love story as shared by Chigozie:

Our love story started in secondary school. We were in the same class in JS3, and we became friends. Every year, students were reshuffled and placed in different classes, but somehow, we were placed in the same class from JS3 to SS3. The chance of two people being placed in the same class for 4 years consecutively was rare. We had a crush on each other, but we remained just friends throughout secondary school. After secondary school, Fisayo moved to the U.S. for undergrad. I went to university in Nigeria. We continued to stay in touch, chatting on Facebook and talking on the phone despite the distance. For one whole year while she was outside Nigeria, I would call frequently, and we would chat on Facebook for hours as “very good friends”. Until one day, Fisayo asked me “so, what are we?”.

Did someone say, stunning bride? 😍

Then I told her that I liked her, and I wanted us to be more than friends. Afterwards, I asked her to be my girlfriend. That was the beginning of our long-distance relationship from Nigeria to the U.S. After quite a while, I went to the U.S. for my masters, and we finally shortened the distance but still lived in different cities. Luckily, we were always within driving distance of each other and would see each other more regularly. We went from classmates, to friendship, to dating to becoming husband and wife.
