If you are one of those who belong to the school of thought where it is said that 'love at first' doesn't exist except in the movies and novels, then be ready to be proven wrong with the love story of our couple of the week, Franca and Sola Idowu!
Their love story dates back the 23rd of April, 2014, it was the beautiful Franca's birthday.
 |
| Yup, I know, I'm hawt like that :) |
If you are very familiar with the BBM 'Display photo' ritual for birthdays, then you would understand why Franca's friends marked her birthday by using her photos on their display pictures.

During the birthday ritual process on BBM, one of the viral photos caught Sola's attention like magic.
A friend they both had in common had used her photo as her Display Photo and fortunately for Sola, he noticed!
He just knew right there that he had found his one true love, the bone of his bone and his other half.
Being the goal getter that he is, Sola sprung into action immediately by asking questions about this one lady whom had totally captured his heart.
"I like her, is she single?" he inquired. His joy knew no bounds when he found out that she was single so he asked for her contact.
 |
| Let me wallow in my happiness, for i have found my true love |
 |
| I want to be your favourite Hello and your hardest Goodbye.... |
 |
| The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you, not knowing how blind I was. Lovers don't finally meet somewhere, they are in each others way all along..... |
 |
| I didn't care that we were out in public. I didn't care that people were watching. All that mattered was that he was Bimbo, my man. My match. My partner in crime. |
 |
| Baby, I love it when we kiss |
 |
| Thanks bae for being my encourager rather than a critic, a forgiver rather than a collector of hurts, and enabler rather than a reformer |
 |
| You Smart, You Loyal, You Grateful, I appreciate that. Take this :) |
This friend (the middle woman) also did some sweet talking to Franca, and gave them each their contacts after which they decide to meet.
 |
| Nothing will ever come in between us |
For Sola, it was love at first sight, he was hit with the cupid's arrow immediately he set his eyes on her but it was a gradual process for Franca.
"I didn't like him at first, i felt he wasn't as fine as i wanted him to be but over time, i fell even more in love with him, i would love our kids to be as amazing as he is" Franca gushed.
Fast forward to months later, Sola took Franca on a special date and asked her the one big question every lady often dreams of being asked....and of course, she excitedly accepted to spend the rest of her life with him!
Now we leave you to enjoy their wedding photos:

Bridal Shower:
We are often taught to find beauty in everything, so here we are finding it in Franca's friends as they unrepentantly celebrated her on her hen's night.
 |
| Meet the Queen and her best friends |
 |
| When your friends gather to celebrate you, you know you mean alot to them |
 |
| It's your day Franca |
 |
| Need we say more |
 |
| Franca had the best of fun at her bridal shower |
 |
| Friendship is the hardest thing in the world to explain. It's not something you learn in school. But if you haven't learned the meaning of Friendship, you really haven't learned anything..... |

| The beginning of love is the will to let those we love be perfectly themselves, the resolution not to twist them to fit our own image. |
 |
| A prayer from my heart for you both, may your love never run dry |
