WEDDINGS: EXCLUSIVE NEVER BEFORE BEEN SEEN ONLINE PICTURES FROM BELLA ADENUGA & JAMEEL DISU’S WEDDING.

So apparently Beyonce was never meant to come for the wedding so I guess Encomium magazine fooled us all anyways while snooping around on the internet I came across some exclusive stuff that have never been seen online well except you’re in Naij and probably have seen the Encomium mag dedicated to the couple already.

Well if you havent heres the good news, we at GidiNoize have found an online copy of the magazine with over 100 pages which contain exclusive pictures and interviews with the couple.

Heres an extract from Ovation mag and here are some screen shots as well.

Beyonce was never meant to come to my wedding. I am a huge Beyonce fan. Someone somewhere who probably knew that just up the story. And they said N2million? I feel privileged that I come from the background that I do but spending N2million on an artist who’s just to come and sing max 2hours, is a waste of money. My wedding was my way, which was supposed to be for Jameel and 1. We didn’t need that kind of international artist to come and over shadow our wedding. So bringing Beyonce was never a question.

I’ll stop my ranting here cause I know all you’re really interested in is the interview so enjoy!

JAMEEL

What attracted you to Bella?

Obviously, she is a very beautiful lady. We met six years ago and ever since we met, we have been very good friends. We have spent a lot of time together. She is a very honest and sincere person.

How did you meet her?

Actually, it is a funny story. I came back to Nigeria six years ago. I met her three days after she also moved back. I went out with some friends to a place called Hacienda, on the Island, though it has been closed down now. I think as I was going in, I met her by the door. We said hello to each other and that was it. We didn’t exchange numbers. A few days later, I attended a party thrown by Bolaji Folawiyo and Sasha Israni. I went there with some friends and she was also there with her cousin and a friend. A friend of mine met her cousin and they exchanged numbers. We equally exchanged numbers. Since then we have been together.

Were you aware then that she is Dr. Mike Adenuga’s daughter?
No, I was not aware. Even when we first met, I never knew she was Dr. Mike Adenuga’s daughter until after about two weeks.

Where were you based before you came back to Nigeria?
I was based in the United States

You were studying?
Yes, I was studying. I finished my Masters then and moved back toNigeria. I went on holiday three months after I moved back. I just got back from my holiday and she just moved back also.

When did dating start?

Funny enough, ever since we met in June 2004, we have been together since.

Which means that both of you have celebrated St. Valentine’s Day a number of times

Yes

Could you recollect a particular Valentine’s Day that was very significant in terms of the way you celebrated it

I think the most significant valentine was the valentine after we met. It was in Lagos. I took her to a restaurant on the Island. I had the restaurant closed completely for us. There was nobody there just the two of us. I had a special band come out to play and a special song was dedicated to her. It was very intimate and romantic. I think that was very significant.

If there could be such a romantic scenario towards the beginning, what then happened on the day you proposed
The day I proposed which I think was about two years ago. She always had an idea that I was going to propose, so it was not much of a surprise. Though she did not know when I was going to do it. I had this elaborate plans laid out but at the end of the day, it was not anything too special. We were spending time together and I just felt the right moment in my heart, so, I brought out the ring, went on my knees, and asked her if she would marry me. And she said yes.

 

WEDDINGS: WHY DID I GET MARRIED?

So I bet you’re thinking Tyler Perry right, well you’re wrong. I’ve attended well over 10 weddings and as each year has gone by, the quality of these weddings have improved.I do not know about guys but for we girls, we start fantasizing about our wedding days pretty early from the Wedding gown to the Brides Maids dresses and all that :D

I mentioned earlier that as each year goes by, the quality of weddings I attend keep improving but theres one more thing thats been increasing too and it really scares me—> DIVORCE!!!!!!!!

I’ve been thinking a lot about why this is so and a couple of things came to mind.I have witnessed the preparation of about 3 weddings, each of which started at least a year before the actual wedding; from picking outaso ebi to sending out invites to getting venues and all, I must say its pretty interesting planning weddings,I just might be a wedding planner you know, lol.Weddings in Nigeria have well over 2 parties,we’ve got The Introduction, The Engagement , Engagement Reception, Bachelors Eve, Hens Night, White wedding ,Wedding Reception then Thanksgiving and if you want to put the icing on the cakeThanksgiving Party :).In my parentngagems time it was probably just 2 events; Eent and Wedding, finish! I do not know how and when all these little other events came in ( Thanksgiving party et al) but some how they did.

What exactly is a wedding?A wedding is basically an ushering into marriage but a lot of people fail to realize this simple fact.People spend years preparing for their wedding day and miss out the most important thing–>their MARRIAGE and I feel this is the reason why the rate of divorce has increased over the past few years.

The wedding day people spend years preparing for is really just a group of critics sitting down to eat your food and comment.These people wont go home with you &  these people wont be there when there are problems so why spend years preparing to entertain them rather than preparing for your actual marriage?I personally feel MARRIAGE is a very big deal and people fail to realise that, at weddings I get really emotional, at times I’m close to tears, not because the wedding is beautiful or the food tastes good..lol but because these two souls are making such a big/bold step.Marriage is for better for worse and thats scary to me. Our generation need to realise this ‘for better for worse’ thing, its not something you wake up one morning and say oh I’m tired and I want a divorce—> NOOO ,divorce should never be an option.

So please please and please  if you are getting married just because you want to experience a wedding day, make it your next birthday theme wedding or better still let your next halloween costume be a wedding dress and to all you soon to be wives/husbands spend time learning how to be a good wife/husband, a good mother/father and not how you’ll impress the invitees at your wedding because really and truly they’ll all leave and it would just be you and your spouse left.

Dont get it twisted people, I LOVE WEDDINGS but I understand that I have to be more prepared for my MARRIAGE than my WEDDING else I’ll end up asking myself  WHY DID I GET MARRIED?
