Yoh! Nhlonipho is quite the charmer eh!? Buying Monica lunch and carrying her bag after school! She must have been the envy of many girls back then.

Well, it goes without saying that he couple attended the same high school. She was a model and he belonged to one of the coolest groups in school. Monica was taken by all that swag and it so happened that Nhlonipho liked her too.

After dating for like two years, Monica got pregnant. That was one of their challenging times, for both ends of their families were not too happy about it. It was only when Nhlonipho manned up and got his family to start lobola negotiations with Monica’s family, that things were smoothed out.

His proposal was a bit of a surprise to Monica, even though she felt ready to settle down at that point in her life. Nhlonipho was returning home from his night shift one day, when he walked past the jewellery shop and saw the perfect engagement ring. He bought it and following morning, he went out to buy Monica her favourite biscuits.

He snuck the ring inside the box of biscuits and while Monica was enjoying her morning tea and biscuits, she came across the ring inside. What a pleasant surprise! She jumped out of bed with excitement and went to share the news with her sister.

Tonight, the couple invite us to share with them their special day, as they will exchange vows in the presence of friends and family and begin their journey to forever after.
