Sharon Dei-Tumi
Bridesmaid
Sharon says “Well, what can I say? It's not every day I get to witness such a perfect blend of love and hilarity! Seeing you two together brings to life the scripture "What God has put together, no man can put asunder" in the most delightfully unexpected way. Seriously, who knew that starting med school would grant me front row seats to premium content in such an epic partnership? – Love, patience, and wisdom packed into such young vessels! Seeing how you two complement each other is like watching a rom-com unfold, but with way better chemistry! May you always choose each other, even when one of you eats the last slice of agege bread. Live each day like tomorrow's your first day at a theme park – full of excitement, laughter, and maybe a little bit of nervousness. May your love continue to flourish, anchored by the unwavering presence of God at the center of it all. Cheers to the dynamic duo – “my person” and their PERSONAL person!!!! P.s. I will start practicing my African dance moves so I am not kicked off the train! 😉”
Bianca Boafo
Bridesmaid
Bianca says “There I was, ID pickup day, thinking nothing special would happen until I met Temi. It was like spotting an oasis in a desert—another African! We clicked instantly. I gave her my number, practically begged her to call. Imagine my surprise when my phone stayed silent for weeks. I thought, "Well, that's that," but apparently, God had a plot twist in store. Thanks to a mutual friend who must've taken matchmaking classes from Cupid, Temi and I got another shot. And this time, it stuck. From what felt like a missed connection to becoming inseparable, Temi turned into the friend who brought wisdom, laughter, and a bit of sanity to my life. Watching our friendship grow was more satisfying than any plan coming together perfectly. Now, as I step into the role of bridesmaid, I'm all in for the late-night chats, the last-minute panics, and the joyous celebrations. This journey from an almost-missed phone call to standing by her side on her big day has been unexpected, a bit comic, and utterly wonderful. It turns out the best friendships aren’t just about those immediate connections; they're about the surprising ways we come back to each other, ready to share in all of life's moments, big and small.”
Omolola Eboda
Bridesmaid
Omolola says “Temitope is who I like to call my brown-skinned spiritual sister. She is one of the most sincere individuals I have ever met, and I knew this from the moment I met her. I didn't realize how much we had in common until much later. Our shared values of what makes a true sister are comparable, and we are both very grounded individuals with definite goals for our lives, particularly in matters of God. We also practice discipline and loyalty. It's the God within us, I think, that we have similar passion. Having someone with whom you truly connect is uncommon. I’m so proud of the groom as well because he knows what is good. Tope! She’s an entire package because of her inventiveness, kindness, nurturing nature, and inner and outside beauty! Truly delighted to be a part of something that holds immense personal significance. Proud of you Doctor T!”
Tolulope Adebayo
Bridesmaid
Tolu says “I am the younger cousin of the bride and can tell you firsthand how amazing she is! Even though we lives states apart, Tope treated me once to suite seats at a Temple basketball game in Philly and it truly showed how much of a good heart she has. Not only that but she is very smart, has great cooking skills and I am excited for her to become into the beloved wife that she deserves to be!”
Busola David
Bridesmaid
Busola says “Hi Everyone I am Busola, (favorite) sister of the groom and I am really excited for the wedding. My brother is like my best friend so I am happy he is marrying the love of life and I get to have another sister. Catch me at the wedding tearing up the dance floor and being the unofficial wedding content creator.”

Damilare Adebayo
Groomsman
Dami says “Tope and Jide are an extraordinary couple who embody love, understanding, and unwavering support. Tope, my incredible sister, is a beacon of strength, kindness, and intelligence. Her compassionate nature and boundless energy lights up every room she enters. Jide complements her in the most perfect ways, making him the ideal husband for her. His patience, thoughtfulness, and unwavering devotion to Tope are truly remarkable. Together, they navigate life’s ups and downs with grace and resilience, setting a beautiful example of a loving partnership for everyone around them.”
Oluwatobi David
Groomsman
Tobi says “A feminist interpretation of Matthew says ‘Therefore a man and a woman shall leave their fathers and mothers and hold fast to each other, and the two shall become one flesh’. So they are no longer two but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let not man separate.” And William Shakespeare said "Love is not love which alters when it alteration finds, or bends with the remover to remove: Oh, no! It is an ever-fixed mark, that looks on tempests and is never shaken. Love's not Time's fool, though rosy lips and cheeks within his bending sickle's compass come; love alters not with his brief hours and weeks, but bears it out even to the edge of doom." To Olajide and Temitope take these words with you for when the going is smooth and when it gets tough. Remember. Wishing you all the love and light He has destined for you and more❤️”
Arnaud Ashyaka
Groomsman
Arnaud says “Back in 2021, I landed in the U.S. for my master's, and amidst the sea of unfamiliar faces, I spotted Jide. It was a moment of, 'Yes! Another African brother in the mix!' Considering we were the only two Africans in our program, it was like finding a needle in a haystack. Though I've got a few years on him, Jide's been nothing short of an MVP – a brother who's not only aced being responsible but has also been my go-to for everything from deciphering class projects to navigating the rollercoaster of life. As for Temi, his better half, I might not know her inside out, but it's crystal clear she's struck gold with Jide. I’m all in for this dynamic duo, wishing them nothing but the best. May the Big Guy upstairs guide you at every turn and sprinkle extra blessings on your journey together. And let's not forget Jide’s love for Dr. Temi – details aside, it's the kind of love that sets the bar high for the rest of us. Can’t wait to celebrate the big day with you both. Here’s to love, laughter, and a lifetime of happiness. God bless!”
Calvin Tabetha
Groomsman
Calvin says “I have had the pleasure of knowing Temi for quite some time now. Prior to Jide moving to the states, Temi always spoke highly of him. I understood why when I met Jide; he’s a perfect gentleman. I want to remind you both that in tough times you should remember how far you have come and what brought you together in the first place. I will always be here to offer my unwavering support. Congratulations!”
Oluwashogo Buremoh
Groomsman
Shogo says “The Bible says "He who finds a wife has found a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord". Olajide, you have found a great gem in my good sister Temitope. I pray the Lord bless this home you're about to create abundantly, with all your heart desires. It's a great honor to be a part of your wedding. Cheers to forever 🥂”

Back in grad school, my days were brighter thanks to my roommate Jide, a guy who was all about good vibes and big laughs. We lived through the rhythm of his and Teme's visits—him flying out to see her, then her coming to stay with us. It was their thing, and it brought a cool kind of energy to our place.Teme is awesome—easy to talk to and just really nice. Seeing them together, you just know they've got something special. Now they're getting ready to say 'I do,' and I couldn't be happier for them. It's like watching two great friends level up in life together.Big congrats to Jide and Teme! Here's to the fun times ahead, the laughs you'll share, and the amazing journey of marriage you're about to start. Can't wait to see where this next chapter takes you both!
