I enjoyed every bit of Folasayo and Dotun's engagement session. They came well prepared for their shoot which made things go a lot faster. I cannot wait to see these love birds tie the knot later this year. Enjoy their love story and engagement photos.
I almost missed my Mr. Right but God had other plans for us. My friend and I planned weeks ahead to attend an event during the Harvard African Business Conference in March of 2013. We purchased our tickets in advance, went shopping for our attire for the event…you know typical girl stuff. The day before the event my friend got some devastating news about her Grandfather passing, it was a hard time for her and her family so we decided it be best if we skipped this event. I was a bit sad that we weren't going anymore especially after all our preparations but hey I had to be there for my girl. My friend calls me up the next day to tell me to be ready by 9pm because her mom insists we go to the event, she knows how excited we were to attend and didn't want us to sit it out. I was a bit unsure of going because it just didn't seem right until her mom got on the phone with me insisting we go. I was so excited that I would get to wear my outfit! You know when you plan an outfit from lipstick to shoes because you know you are going to this event to show out. After getting dressed and taking a final look in the mirror, I slayed my outfit, face was beat for the gods and hair was laid…I was READY!
Fast forward to February 2016, We took yet another trip with a couple of friends to San Diego, Dotun convinced me that his friends was proposing to his girlfriend. We got all dressed up. For this "friend", I was super excited that we would be a part of the proposal, just maybe, my baby would see how it's done. We got to a park in Coronado, san Diego, I blushed sooooo hard for the girl that was supposed to be proposed to, the flowers! The candles!! Like! just what I would want for myself! I looked back to make sure he was watching, and to my surprise Dotun got down on one knee, i was in shock, i don't remember anything he said…. I said YES! I peeped the ring…? And peeped the ring and it was everything I wanted. My man was on a mission with that ring!!! Spending the rest of my life with my best friend is a blessing, "the" blessing we all pray for! And this excites me! Believe me, it's been an easy ride these past years! We just clicked right from the start! It's such a beautiful journey when you're on the same page.
