Love Personified

Summer of 2005, we met in a classroom in Lagos, Nigeria. We dated for a year before I returned to Houston in the summer of 2006. Over the next 14+ years, we stayed in touch periodically. Fast forward to 2018 and Yusuf moves from Nigeria to Houston for his master's degree. We reconnect in his final year of school, started dating once more, and have been building a life together ever since.

On May 27th, 2020—at the height of the pandemic—Yusuf and I established our union in a private ceremony, attended by just us two. We now look forward to celebrating two (2) years of marital bliss this year. This August, we are excited to officially celebrate our union with our family and friends in ways that are so dear to us.
