Most definitely this must have been one of the best arrows that Cupid (the cherub of love) with the good direction of Mariah has shot in recent times. The love arrow sure did hit target well and that target is none other than Kevin Lucciano-Gabriel's heart; it was pierced in a jolly good way.
The traditional part of the nuptial had been sorted out a while ago in Lagos, Nigeria, but to fully celebrate this great love story and finish the final leg of the nuptial, the gorgeous couple chose far away Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire in the UK, which is about 45 minutes away from London.
It was a romantic setting all the way. Venue of choice was- The Pond, Micklefield Hall, Saratt Road, Sarratt, Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire, WD3 6AQ, a beautiful building surrounded by a massive expanse of very well tended grounds of many acres. Date was Friday, August 16, 2013. It was scheduled to have started at 12:30 hours, but it started about 30 minutes after the scheduled time.
Romance pervaded the whole atmosphere and the exchange of vows and rings was witnessed by about 150 people. Who all sat under a beautiful white canopy enjoying the whole atmosphere as the very witty Pastor conducted the whole proceedings and exchange of vows.
We particularly loved Pastor Tunde Adebayo-Oke's admonition to the couple, and we have some of his quotable quotes, hear him- Every marriage is bespoke, each couple's marriage is signature to them and therefore no need for comparison with others. He also quoted from 1 Thessalonians 4:11 to buttress a particular point, which said ''Make it your goal to live a quiet life, 'minding your own business' and working with your hands, just as we instructed you before.
Minding your own business here according to the pastor, meant the couple are each others topmost business, so they should make conscious effort to mind each other. He went on further to say, they both must beware of friends, especially those who wants to chip in one thing or the other about how things should be and they are also not to listen to outside or side talks as this would affect their relationship.
It was a beautiful and hilarious ceremony, great admonitions, fantastic off the cuff wisecracks and it didn't take too long as everything went on like a breeze.
Kevin's friend and partner Gbenga Sokefun, TY Bello's older sibling was his best man, while Isoken Ogiemwonyi's sister Ivie was the Chief Bride's maid. Kevin was decked out looking totally dapper, in a blue Tom Ford suit and Mariah had on a most gorgeous Elie Saab white wedding gown complete with the veil. She was looking virginal and gorgeous.
Some of those who witnessed the exchange of vows were Gbemi Shasore, Ekua Abudu, Lilian Unachukwu, Oloye Ayiri Emame, Eniola & Olamide Adenuga, Isoken Ogiemwonyi, Ugo Okoye & wife, Gbenga Sokefun, Tuface Idibia, Bright Okpocha and very many others.
