Wedding Party

Bi

Bride

Emz

Groom

Mel

Maid of Honor

Everyone calls me Mel because Emz couldn't stop calling me Melanie 🤦🏾‍♀️. Anyways, I met Bi in 2016 during one of her visits to Canada. We just clicked and connected like we had known each other for years. When I moved to the states, I lived with her and her family. Now I'm daddy Cy's last daughter (literally hahah). I am Bi's younger sister, friend and "maid of honor". We have shared so much together and I am looking forward to being part of the most important project of their lives Dear Mr & Mrs Achiri, It is a great honor to write a tribute to you two on this special occasion of yours. I remember when Emz was trying to make me his best woman. I was very privileged to be considered as the best woman and maid of honor for both the bride and groom Bi and Emz have been my closest friends and family since I moved to the states. We've shared good and bad memories. Bi is my emergency contact. She will drop everything to be there for a friend. Bi found a soul mate in Emz. They both compensate each other wonderfully. Bi wants Roses, a hot bath and nice morning notes. Emz wants to load the truck without Bi commenting 🤣. Well, I am glad I will always be there to make sure these things happen because this union is forever ❤️ Lots of Love ❤️

Ivan

Best Man

As a kid,we had this postcard on our wall that always resonated with me 'Good friends are hard to find,difficult to shape but easy to love’ Bi&Emz,while coincidental to find,you're the easiest people to love,definitely didn't need reshaping!We just clicked!I moved to CLT a year ago,met them while visiting Mel(MOH).Within this short period,we've spent almost all weekends together,building true friendship bonds while quickly making up for the time lost!You can only imagine the joy&how hyped I was when he asked me to be his BM.I had no idea I'd made such impact in their lives,as they had mine being such great friends-Sorry family With the multitude of conversations had with Emz,the things learnt from him,spanning from business,work,tech,even liquor,there is 1 thing instead of talking about he decided to show me,the way to treat a lady.In everything he does,Bi is always first&priority.It’s easier said but can only be truly learnt from examples as you have shown me. Bi who added several ‘I’s & ‘V’s to my name(Ivan)is always so caring&so empathetic.Your immense support,understanding&love for Emz is the very best any man could wish for As you grow together,I wish your love for each other continue to grow.I am extremely honored to not only be part of your celebration of love&friendship but one of the guys standing behind Emz,I wish you happiness&always remember I am not only here to adjust Emz’s tie during the wedding,hopefully be there to watch over the kids! Cheers to the Achiri’s

Ngoula

Matron of Honor

I have known Bi basically my whole life, so when she asked me to be her Matron of Honor I was deeply flattered. She has been a great friend to me is an amazing personality. I’m so certain that she'll make an amazing family woman. So I give you this poem as my tribute to you. A new type of forever. Some friendships are forever, Like the one we have, I know you’ll always have my back, Just like I always have yours, But you have found a new love, A forever that’s different from ours, For better or worse with the one you love, A new type of forever, A forever called marriage. My tears? They’re happy tears

Shakes

GroomsMan of Honor

My name is Damian but my friends call me Demmy or Shakes. Of course you might be wondering where the name Shakes originated. Wayback - secondary school days, I used to recite most of the Shakespearean plays so from "Shakespeare" originated "shakes" and of course I had very funny dance moves though I was always quite certain I was the best dancer my comrades could ever have.😃 Currently based in Douala, the city of hustlers. I'm a lover of good music, sophisticated liquor, fancy clothes, fancy cars, good company and dream getaways. Emma and I were more than brothers some decades ago at St. Bede's. We inspired each other and were more than ambitious. He was one of the cleanest and most handsome of all the guys, ladies guy but the shy type as well to be a go getter in that direction lol, I had to push him in most occasions before he mustered the courage for his first date. He was also very sociable and a lover of basketball and good music. But the man be di fear robbing bad! A negative remark about him even in passing was enough for him to cut you off. Lol I don't know much about his lovely wife Bi but I want to let her know she got married to a rare gem and is probably the luckiest woman in the world to have him. Emma is an epitome of love itself and can reciprocate beyond expectation when it is requited. I wish them all the best as they turn this new page in their lives and I am more than grateful to be part of it all. I tap onto their blessings. To the Achiris forever 🥂🍾

Ada

Bridesmaid

Glad to be here. So I am Ada. Based in Cameroon and one of Bi's good friends. I have known Bi and Emma for years. Infact ,all three of us attended high school together but who would have ever thought😉and we never got close till we got to the University that is Bi and I. We clicked and the rest is history. Bi has been so good to me and has been my confidant for long. She has an amazing spirit and a heart of gold. I pray as you start and go through this journey you just keep becoming the best version of yourself. We love your union, we wish you experience butterflies and the deepest meaning of love in your marriage, i wish you a marriage filled with love that God would watch over from above. That you both will share happy and sad feelings and hold one another close through good and bad times. Lastly,my wish to you as a couple is that you learn as the years come and go that the sweetest of love comes from the seeds you sow now. I pray for understanding and coordination amongst us as we plan and prepare for this day 🙏 🙏 🙏 🙏 Let's do this. Cheers to the Achiri's 🥰 Love🥰

Terence

Groomsman

I am called Terence but mainly known as Tero or Main ManTJ, based in Bamenda Cameroon. I am a football lover and I love enjoyment to the highest level. Lol. I'm a Junior brother to our newest bride in town Dr. Wenddy Bisi. She has always been that special and loving sister that I hold to the highest esteem. It makes me so happy when i talk to her so much that i call her "my bep" as in a girlfriend and more not only a sister. lol I must say I am very delighted for this super union between my loving sister Dr. Wenddy Bisi and my newest In-law Mr Achiri and for being a participant of this great and memorable day between them. I will end here because the love and concern I have for them can’t be described in words. However I wish you all the best in your married life and may God see you through your life together. Love you both! Have a blessed married life my lovely couple!

Kaka

Bridesmaid

Hey everyone… this is the one and only Kaks!!! I don’t even need intro 😂😂😂 but as far as me and Bi…. here goes! Bi started out as my big sis Ada’s friend. We were a big family in UB, but Bi and I really got close when we reunited here in etats. Now, the bond runs very deep and I’m elated to be a part of their big day. Guys! Bi and Emma will give you pipo goosebumps, wuna wait see😅. I reflexively want to open with the now popular “Bi and Emz” but my father always told me that when I address a couple, I must always start with the man. And considering my old-fashioned tendencies, here goes…. Emz and Bi, what a joy it is to be part of this incredible start of the rest of your lives. I am elated for you both and “I go carry this matter for my head” until God tells me to chill (which He probably won’t 😆). Nothing like finding the yin to your yang, plus the bonus of sharing a forever after. As you have chosen each other now, my prayer is that you choose each other everyday from here on out, striving always to find perfection in every imperfection. Emz, as you love Bi; and Bi, as you respect Emz, may God grant you all the blessings he promised as regards the institution of marriage. I will always be here to cheer, love, support and pray for your family. Congratulations and much love ❤️

Keep small circles but loyal and supportive to my friends and love ones. I knew Bi long time but i finally met her when she visited Canada. It was one of the best 2 weeks of my life. She is a real definition of a true friend. She will go all out to see that her friends are happy. She even thought me how to drive Lol. Emz I must say you are a lucky man. Emz my brother! One of the kindest guy I have ever met in my life. We clicked even before I met him. He will literally support me even without having a clue of what is going on ☺️. It’s an honour to be ur groom’s man. Very appreciative of the little things in life, very kool and easy to talk to. My bro keep up with the dance moves I love it lol. The say home is where the heart is and you two compliment each other. Learn to attack ur problems not each other. Surprise each other with sweet gifts. Pay more attention to ur wife than to ur phone. Will always be there through out the journey and God bless your union. Cheers to the Achiri’s ❤️.

Nkefor

Groomsman

Hey guys, my name is Nkefor. I live in North Carolina with my wife and daughter. I've known Bi since in "back PMI Nkwen" where we were neighbors before she moved to the US. I got to know her even better when i moved to the US and met her and Yo in North Carolina. We became more like family here in the US. Bi is one of the few pipo that call me Ngo or Nde Ngo (aside from Yo), now Emz and Mel modified that name to Ngops 🤣. (Let me switch to pidgin for a bit) Pipo wey d coh me dis name na mostly pipo wey know me since bamda and i grow up with them. ( Make we go back for English) I got to meet Emz through Bi and we have always been hanging out since then. Emz has been more than a friend and a brother. I'll have to say that Bi and Emz, you both compliment each other. This union was meant to be. Emz, you have found a rare gem and Bi you found a perfect match, a perfect soulmate. As you officially become The Achiris, i pray for showers of blessings, happiness, love, understand in the home you both will build together in Jesus's holy name.

Goldie

Bi and I just happened cos she literally woke up one day and realized she had a new family member, Gold😄Since then it’s been a joyful ride until my favorite softie opened up about her soulmate Emz. Not met him yet but one thing I can say is, he brought an era of massive breakthrough and happiness for Wendyyy. I’m so happy for Bi as she makes this massive step and even more excited about the memories we will make together when we celebrate their wedding come December (Bridal train too litttt). Congratulations to you and your “Mr Sweet face” Bi babes. God at the Centre of it all🙏🏼

Brian

Groomsman

Hi guys, my name is Brian, younger brother to the bride and I live in Bamenda Cameroon. Bi is more than just a sister to me, she’s my mum and best friend and I love her so much. I know for a fact Emz regards himself as the luckiest man on the planet to have such a rare gem 💎 and I’m sure Bii feels same way too. I wouldn’t say I know much about Emma considering we haven’t had any personal moments yet, but I can tell he’s a fine gentleman, and a perfect match. I’m extremely honored to be part of the grooms club. I wasn’t expecting to make the cut😂. Emz makes my sister happy and that means so much to me in fact, that’s really all that matters to me. I’m glad you both picked each other. Well I guess that’s it. Wish you both a happy marriage life as you take on this journey together. Stay blessed
