“Every love story is beautiful, but ours is my favorite.”
On Saturday, June 17, 2017 both families joined for lunch at Izumi Hibachi restaurant in Wayne, NJ. Everyone joined for a nice afternoon filled with laughter and great conversation. As the chef started his preparation, he created a heart out of rice and the words “WILL YOU MARRY ME?” on a zucchini. After taking a moment for me to realize that our lives would now change forever, cameras flashing and family cheering, Babajide got on one knee and asked me to be his wife. I was in shock, disbelief, and happy about the moment! I said yes, and that’s what brought us to this special day of our lives—July, 7th, 2018.
