Bride’s Most Unforgettable Event at the Wedding
Seeing my hubby dancing with so much joy, he’s always shy to dance but that was different. -Joyce
Wedding Planning Details and Tips for Other Brides
They planned the entire wedding in just 3 months and had one-day interval between the traditional and white wedding day. Joyce says that “finding wedding vendors and suppliers wasn’t that difficult for us”, especially because some of the vendors they used were her friends. As she puts it, the secret is: “all about having the right contacts”.
On her advice for brides-to-be who are in the planning stage, Joyce stresses that it is important “to start planning early”.

Why We Love Joyce and Sylvester’s Nigerian Wedding
I really love today’s Nigerian wedding features because it validates the popular saying that “if you love someone, let him/ her go (aka breakup). If they come back to you, (it was always yours and) it’s yours forever. But if they don’t come back, it never was yours”. Shows that that sometimes, the true test of true love is breaking up, to see if it’s real.
What It Means to You…
So, if you’re reading this and have gone through a similar breakup situation, and still can’t get that special person off your mind, there’s hope – just run to them and do what Sylvester did (permanently seal the deal with a marriage proposal and a quick wedding).
