This post was to go up on Friday so excuse the Monday post :-).
How did you meet?
We met in Kampala where we both studied, it was not a bed of roses, Religious issues and other custom differences were to be overcome to reach this day.
How did he propose?
It was a surprise, he had planned it for a while and he pretended as if he had lost his watch and he asked me to assist him look for it as we searched everywhere in the house, he hide the engagement ring in a flower vase, when I found it I just started crying as he knelt to ask me to marry him.
Wedding Vendors:
Venue – Oak Place Ridgeway’s
Carol was managing our wedding and she is the Events Manager of Oak Place. Exceptional Grounds with lots of space and clean toilets
Décor/Flowers – Termora Decor
Mary was perfect what we agreed with her regarding décor linen and flowers choice is exactly what she delivered, it was so colorful and we loved it, I can’t find anything to fault her.
Catering/Tents – Oak Place Ridgeway’s
The food was tasty and plenty as we had requested and the tents were rather short but were fine.
Videography and Photography – De-Capture
Very Professional we enjoyed working with them and they did not disappoint and were on point.
Entertainment /MC /DJ – Kayamba Africa
They kept everyone on their toes dancing till you dropped,we were told people danced when we went for the photo session
Cake and Gown – Gal Bridal
First we went to Valentine Cake House for the cake but the way the manager treated us, we would not settle for less so we quit. It was a blessing coz my Gown (which was a mermaid design) and Cake from Gal Bridal was worth the wait. It was what I really wanted. I have no words for the cake it was beyond what we expected.
Bridal Vehicles – Executive Limousine
I will not give you contacts since they messed us up early morning on our wedding day. They insisted on additional charges although they had been fully paid months ago they did not honour the contract we ended paying more than was agreed. I would not recommend at all!
Advice for Future brides?
Start Early like 1 year to the wedding check for various vendors and compare prices, the best wedding planner is yourself plan your wedding the way you want not what the planner tells you listen to advise but decide on what makes you happy and is realistic.
