One thing we’ve come to agree with when it comes to finding love is that you can never say never. Yewande wasn’t a believer in finding love on dating sites until Silas came along.
It all began when Cupid brought Yewande an early Christmas present four years. She decided to sign up for a dating site and as fate would have it, Silas came across her profile and she stole his heart instantly. They went on their first date and the connection was just so seamless! Now, they are riding on the wings of love and are set to spend the rest of their lives together! Their pre-wedding photos are a breath of fresh air and would certainly make your day!
Enjoy their pre-wedding shoot and love story below:
How we met
By the bride, Yewande:
Grab your popcorn while I tell you how God sent me the best early Christmas gift in 2020. It was the winter of 2020, (rolls eyes trying to feel like a Yankee babe 😂) minding my business and not even looking for a man. My boss had built this super amazing dating website called Girl Country, we (myself and some of my favourite girls in the whole world – Bonu & Sophie) were really excited about how something we were involved in would help people find love. Little did I know that the website was actually built for me. To support our boss, we decided to sign up on the site to fill up user profiles (of course after several pleas). Fast forward to the 14th of December, 2020, I got a notification from the website that I had been matched with some “Silas” me ke?? How?? Émì backend dev. That day in the office was chaotic!! They saw an opportunity to use me for external testing 😂! After so many pleas from Sophie, Silas and I had a first call, exchanged Instagram handles and arranged for a physical meet-up. I chose a restaurant very close to my house and showed up looking very random (even though he claims I looked stunning ) because honestly, I didn’t think it was going to be anything serious.
