On Saturday, 21st, August 2021, two young barristers set aside the day to tie the bridal knot. The event started at 12 noon at Olorunsogo Baptist Church located at Ijaye Ojokoro in Lagos State.

The bride arrived at the church in a Land Cruiser jeep, as she stepped out in her flowing white gown guarded by beautiful looking friends who were also dressed in blue flowing gowns.
The bride stepped into the church as the
Choir began to sing some hymns. While this was on, the groom drove into the
church premises in a Rolls Royce. He joined his wife-to-be at the front row
of the church, as they went through the vows with big smiles on their faces.
