The Best Moment of my Life. Written By @uzoma24
Because they wanted to do both the traditional and Church wedding same day, the occasion was moved to Nsuka for proximity to the bride's home since the traditional wedding will hold in her father's house.
I attended from Aba. Because I was the person that made the groom's clothes (the suits, and the agbada for the traditional outing), I left a day before the wedding day. But our vehicle spoilt on the way that I had to sleep over a cheap hotel at Enugu town.
By 5:30am the nest day I was on my way again.
That by 7am, I was with the groom and his other friends. He had already had his bath, He quickly dressed up.
While I went to the bathroom to freshen up.
Soon after, many of our classmates who are priests started arriving. From the window of the hotel room, we saw many of them, I went down with the groom to welcome them, and there after we all shared some shots.
By 8:30 am we left the hotel to the church to consummate the church wedding which was held at the Catholic chaplency of the University of Nsuka main Campus.

After the wedding Mass, we "classmates" present shared a picture during the photo session.
We all proceeded to the father's house, for refreshment there we ate and chatted about lots of things amidst jokes. We also remembered lots of old times back then in the seminary. To me, this was the best moment
After the food, we called the couple to a corner and handed them a a present from the rest of the class. Of which they we're very grateful to receive.
We now went back to the hotel. Changed up and left to the bride's family house for the second part of the occasion (traditional wedding) and reception.
The truth is that, I didn't know the that that outing would be that exciting.
It was just like a reunion and I thank God for be my friend and his beautiful wife.
I wish them all the good things that comes with marriage and above all, Love.
