Here and “nao” ❤️

Abdul and Nikki have a unique story, a fairy tale one might say. Dating is an interesting concept, and for those of us who aren’t high school sweethearts, it can often be challenging to find “your person”; especially after a global pandemic. Here’s how the fairytale begins: Abdul and Nikki met on Bumble, a popular dating website that requires the woman to make the first move 24 hours after you “match”. Luckily for Abdul, Nikki swiped right and sent her message. He then had 24 hours to respond (working on a time crunch here), and the rest was history. Later, Nikki found out that she was the first person he swiped on, the first person he messaged, and the only person he talked to before deleting the app. For him, he found his person within minutes. After getting to know each other via text for a week, the two decided to meet in Evanston, where Nikki was living at the time. Abdul made an effort to drive to her so she wouldn’t have to drive home late at night. After a 4 hour date, the two left the restaurant and Abdul surprised Nikki with a bouquet of roses. A tradition he still continues for date nights and special occasions. Abdul often says that he knew on their first date that Nikki was the one. We feel so lucky to be able to share our love with all of you, and can’t wait for the memories we create with you all as Mr. and Mrs. Ogungbola.
