Wunmi & Victor: A Love Written in the Stars and Silent Stares

BNW February 5, 20250 Comments

When Victor first met Wunmi at church, her quiet demeanour and long, intentional stares left him both intrigued and curious. But nothing much came of that meeting—until fate stepped in a few months later. They talked this time, and Victor lets us know that the chemistry was undeniable.

Wunmi promised to see him the next week, but “next week” turned into three long months of wondering. Just as Victor thought she had disappeared for good, she reappeared with her signature smile, confidently getting his name wrong. At that moment, he was completely smitten – so much so, that the name error didn’t matter much!

Now, as they step into forever, Wunmi and Victor’s pre-wedding shoot is a joyful reflection of their story—one filled with serendipity, humour, and undeniable love. From stolen glances to sharing a lifetime together, their journey reminds us that when it’s meant to be, the stars align, the names don’t even matter, and the love shines through it all.

Enjoy their beautiful love story and photos below:

Their love story as shared by Victor:

Omowunmi and I first crossed paths at church, where she said almost nothing but chose to communicate with long, silent stares. I was intrigued, but nothing much happened that day. A few months later, fate played matchmaker again. Omowunmi spotted me, and this time, we actually talked. And oh, when I say we vibed, I mean the vibes were vibing, the chemistry was chemisting, and the stars? They were practically throwing a party in the sky.

Just before she left, she said, “I’ll see you next week.” I was so excited! That next Sunday, I pulled out my finest outfit—ironed it so well you could see your reflection—and rehearsed my lines like I was prepping for a Hollywood debut. I got to church early, eagerly scanning the crowd… but Omowunmi was nowhere to be found. “Next week” turned into three long months of wondering where she disappeared to. Lesson learned: never leave without getting the number!

Fast forward three months—yes, three—there she was again, grinning like nothing happened. “Victory, right?” she said, confidently but oh-so-wrongly. (For the record, my name is Victor.) I wanted to be upset, really, but how could I? That smile disarmed me completely. And now? Now I’m overjoyed to be marrying my best friend, who kept me waiting, called me the wrong name, and still managed to steal my heart effortlessly.
