When you and your lover have the same name, we are so here for it!

Opeyemi and Opeyemi definitely have a beautiful love story to tell. They met fourteen years ago at the University and became friends. Through the years, this friendship never broke apart and now in a few hours, the #grOOwithme couple will be tying the knot.

We will be kickstarting this feature, with the sweet note/ story from the groom-to-be, Opeyemi:

People always say they hope for a partner they can go through life with, here I am marrying someone who I have already gone through life with. 14 years leading to this altar, you have always been my person, always available for the fun life things. With you things just fall into place, we always found a way to dance to our own rhythm, I can’t wait to keep growing and building with you.

Here’s how this beautiful friendship played out according to the bride-to-be, Opeyemi:

I met Ope 14 years ago. We were course mates at the University and we became friends in 2008. I love how our friendship grew over the years even though I never imagined a relationship. Through the leaps and turns and relationship advice we gave each other in previous relationships, God had other plans. He asked me to spend forever with him and I’m delighted to do this journey with him.
