This post was to go up on Friday so excuse the Monday post :-).

This wedding came with an accompanying email that said: Our wedding was on 12 Jan 2013. I’m Ugandan and my Husband Kenyan. I always read your blog (ciikuweds) about weddings and it was so helpful as I was planning ours. So I am sending mine so that it can help another bride somewhere in Kenya or Uganda.

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.

Cake and Gown – Gal Bridal

Contacts Jackie +254729303082

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.

Dress

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!
