Sometimes, the people closest to us are the ones who lead us to love. In Ogechi’s case, fate worked through her sister’s intuition, and with a little divine timing, the perfect matchmaking stage with Izunna was set.

With a track record of successfully pairing her friends with their husbands, Ogechi’s sister decided it was time to set her own sister up for love. And true to her word, just a week later, at a party in Lagos, she met Izunna—a man who, at first, wasn’t keen on setups. But the moment he saw Ogechi’s photo, something shifted. He asked for her number, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Now, as they step into a new chapter, we get to relive the beautiful moments from their white wedding ceremony through their photos. Each frame exudes warmth and a love that speaks volumes. They look so perfect together and we are so excited for them as they embark on this journey of love.

Enjoy their wedding photos and love story below:

Starting the big day with the right energy 😍

Their love story as shared by Ogechi:

My sister introduced us. She met him for me, and she knows I owe her but she collects so it’s all good. I wasn’t having the best summer and my sister came to London so we could chill and have a great time. After a night out in Reign ( hahaha) we came home and started to have a tête-à-tête and she asked me what I wanted in a partner after a candid conversation. She then proceeds to tell me that she thinks she’ll find my husband. We laugh it off (By the way, she found the husbands of most of her best friends).
A week later she goes to a party in Lagos with her husband and her husband and my husband hit it off in conversation, she joins them and enjoys speaking to my husband and then at the end of the conversation she asks if he’s single .. he says yes and she tells him about her sister who is also single. He said he’s not into setups and then she showed him a picture of me .. he asked for my number .. the rest is history

Ogechi made such a stunning bride! 😍

Also very crazy, my Father in love forced him to go to this party as he didn’t live in Nigeria and was living in San Francisco, so it was God’s timing. He was not someone I knew or knew of .. we had no mutuals which was wild honestly, two strangers.
When we started speaking, I realized how special our relationship could be, I mean we really got each other we are such nerds ! and I also understood I wasn’t where I needed to be as a person and as a partner so I asked him to give me time, if it’s meant to be it will. My husband was very persistent and patient with me, the only way to stop myself and him from speaking was to go cold turkey so I blocked him.

I would unblock him if he emailed saying he was having a bad day to cheer him up but then I would still block him and he would message my sisters to send me flowers or my friends to find out how I was doing. So we did this for a year until I really found myself and l realized who I wanted to share this version of myself with.
After officially dating for three weeks he lets me know he’s moving back to Nigeria, and after dating for a month we go skiing for my birthday, Where he proceeds to tell me he had called a few of the ” ring shops ” in Dolomites. It really didn’t occur to me what rings he was talking about. 😂 Soon after it clicked, we went had a look at a few and the rest was history and no he didn’t propose on that trip but he made his intentions very clear I was going to be his wife.
