Side by side forever - Beautiful bride showcases the rich Benin tradition in wedding photos

A beautiful Nigerian couple's love for traditions and customs were gorgeously showcased at their traditional wedding ceremony as they stepped out for the occasion looking like pure Edo royalties.

For Aisosa and Osarenren, their love story can be described as the end result of when the love for culture and tradition attracts and brings people together. The couple who are both doctors met in the US after Osarenren, the groom, heard a lot about her. According to the bride, what first caught attention was how fluently he spoke the Benin language.

Speaking in an interview, she shared their amazing love story: He heard a lot about me from a mutual friend and couldn’t wait to meet me in person. He flew into Chicago for a business trip and our first date was at a Chicago downtown restaurant. I wasn’t into the Italian meal but fascinated by the conversation and how he continuously smiled at me. We talked more and more into the night and I found out stuff about him; one being that he speaks benin language very fluently. That part really got me because I can barely speak. Over the next few weeks/ months/ years I was very attracted to his calmness and personality and we developed a strong love chemistry, we couldn’t stay an hour without talking to each other."

She went further to share their proposal story and it is so romantic. According to the story, he proposed while on their way to Cuba in a helicopter.

"We took numerous trips together since we both love to travel. During one of our Miami trips, he emphasized I brought a nice dress and my passport. On 7/18/17, while in Miami, he told me we were going to Cuba on a helicopter since I have been talking about visiting Cuba. I believed since Cuba is close to Miami and was excited smh!!!We got into the helicopter-the pilot, him and myself and gosh the Miami view was beautiful. About 15 minutes into the helicopter ride, he was holding a ring. He asked me to marry him. I could not hold my tears. 2 minutes gone by, he said you still haven’t answered me. So he asked “ will you marry me” I said yes. On 01/13/18, I married my best friend and Prince Charming #DrBae #SosaOsa"
