Toyosi, Wole to wed on Feb. 14, 2017; release pre-wedding pictures

From Yankee to Naija with love; Toyosi and Wole share a love so boundless, so true, and as their upcoming wedding signifies, everlasting.

How They Met

The couple met in Dubai. At the time, Toyosi had recently finished her studies and was about relocating back to Nigeria.

She was hosting a weekly youth fellowship at her apartment and it was Wole’s first time attending.

“She was so sweet and very welcoming and I could not forget her aura even after the meeting,” Wole says of the first time he met her.

“I thought I was going see her around again but unknowingly, she was relocating the following week. I only knew her first name and searched ‘Toyosi’ out on Facebook but about 5000 Toyosi’s appeared LOL.

“I eventually got her full name from a mutual friend, sent her a request on Facebook, and that was how it all began.”

Dating

The couple who have been dating for a year and a half initially started off with a long distance relationship which Toyosi says she didn’t like at first.

“It started off as long distance (which was breaking my rule; I hate long distance relationships).

“During our long distance phase, we had lots of fights because we didn’t understand each other then and our backgrounds were different.

“We always got through the fights because I believe we saw something in each other that we didn’t want to let go of. After 7 months of long distance dating, Wole decided to move back to Nigeria (He was feeling the girl).

“God was on our side really, because he got his company to transfer him to their Nigerian office. Since he has moved back, we have only gotten to understand and love each other more.“

The Proposal 

Toyosi had been expecting Wole to propose on a particular date but when he got to know that she was expecting it, he changed the date in order to surprise her.

“Wole proposed on Wednesday the 11th of May, 2016. I expected him to propose the week before because he had planned a wonderful date so I was ready and looked extremely gorgeous but apparently he and my sister wanted me to be surprised so they pushed it forward.

“On that fateful Wednesday, I was working from home so I was dressed very down. I had to work at church during the evening service that day and as I was about to leave home, my mom told me to change that I looked horrible.

“I immediately started arguing with her on why I didn’t need to change and after a while she left me. I won the argument (so I thought).

“That evening, my Pastor walks into church and we were both seated near the front but not beside each other and my pastor says ‘Wole I sent you a text message’.

“I remember clearly thinking; Na wa o, when did Wole and my pastor become texting buddies when I’ve even known my Pastor longer.

“So, I started trying to do amebo [pokenose] to find out what the text message said but Wole wouldn’t even give me face.

“Anyways when my Pastor was done preaching , He called Wole out saying he had a testimony and that the church should listen. In my mind at this time I was thinking; what testimony, what has happened that this guy didn’t tell me first (I was already planning my trouble for him).

“Next thing I know Wole calls me to step out to his side. At this point I just wanted to disappear. I was looking so raggedy; no makeup, hair was a mess, nails were horrific, and my outfit was nothing to write home about.

“Anyways I get up and kept looking around trying to find my mom to give her the look of “betrayal”. I stood in front of Wole, our sides were facing the church and I was just hoping this was a dream.

“Next thing Wole gets down on one knee and asks me to marry him. I was utterly speechless and just nodded and pulled him to get back up as fast as I could while the whole church was cheering.

“The only emotion I was feeling throughout the proposal was shock and I wanted to escape but there was nowhere to run to. Anyways thank God I nodded yes and didn’t faint.”

The love interest sparked in Dubai, and fanned on Facebook, will now reach another phase on February 14, 2017 as the couple say their wedding vows and seal the promises with a kiss.
