FAQs & About Us

Question

FAQ: Are kids welcome?

Answer

As much as we love your little ones, unfortunately, we will not be including children under the age of 15 years old in our white wedding ceremony/reception. This is due to very strict number restrictions by the venue. We know this may not be easy, particularly for our interstate/overseas guests and so we hope that we have given enough notice to make arrangements. Please note that for those invited to the traditional wedding, children are welcome and there will be a kids room with a professional nanny where they will be entertained with activities.

Question

How did you meet?

Answer

The first time I met Emeka, we were at a wedding my brother invited me to. I was young and still new to Melbourne. We sat across from each other on the same table and he started making fun of how much I was eating - I had about two grains of rice on my plate because I was shy haha. We then started talking and it felt like we had known each other for a lifetime. I was so carried away that I forgot to ask for his name and unfortunately, he had to rush off - so we parted ways. Fast forward to 3 years later, and we reconnected online. We started talking every day and the rest was history. We took a lot of time together and apart to pray about our relationship and once we got peace and confirmation from God, it was just natural to move on to the next phase of our relationship and publically declare our love and commitment to one another in front of our friends and family.

Question

What was your most memorable date?

Answer

One beautiful and warm evening, Emeka took me out on a lovely private dinner on a boat. We sailed across the Yarra River and it was such a magical moment. The food was delicious and it was the day he officially asked me to be his girlfriend.

Question

What are you both on the same page about?

Answer

Our faith. Without God as our foundation, this relationship would never work. We are on the same page about putting Him first always and everything else will just fall into place.

Question

How did you propose?

Answer

I told Khadi we were going to have a rooftop dinner. When the doors opened, she was pleasantly surprised to see a candlelit room with a violinist playing and a giant sign that said "will you marry me." In front of our closest friends and family, I went down on one knee and asked her to make me the happiest man on earth by being my wife - and she did when she said yes!

Question

Where are you going for your honeymoon?

Answer

Somewhere tropical and warm!
