How we metBy the bride, Adaeze:
Richmond and I are childhood sweethearts, bound by a love that stood the test of time. Life took us on separate paths, and for seven long years, we lost touch. But fate has a way of weaving its magic. In October 2022, Richmond reached out to me on Instagram. By sheer coincidence—or perhaps destiny—we found ourselves in the same country at the same time. From that moment, our love rekindled, blossoming into something even more beautiful than before, and it continues to grow stronger each day.
One of my favorite memories of us is from our younger days. My brother had a strict rule: I wasn’t allowed to be friends with his friends. Richmond, being one of them, found a clever way around it. Whenever he wanted to take me to the movies, he’d park four houses away from mine to avoid getting caught. The next day, he’d show up at our house, and we’d act as though we barely knew each other, keeping our secret safe. Those moments were as mischievous as they were magical—a testament to the lengths we’d go just to spend time together.
