Who Opposed to the Marriage and Why? How Did You Previal?

My family was very accepting of him.  Well, I should say my mother's side of the family was very receptive of him.  My grandmother loved him so much that she gave him my grandfather's wedding ring to use.  It was my father's side that had a problem.

They thought (and some continue to think) that he only wanted me for marriage so that he may become a citizen.  They thought that he would use my position to pull strings and make that happen for him.  It came to a point where my father told him to his face that he could make him "disappear."  It was a rough time.

Unit 22 went though the pains of explaining to them that he had refugee status which allows him to work in the country and legally reside in the country with or without me.  Infact, being with me would slow up his process to citizenship since there would be a three year waiting period.  He would have gotten citizenship in 2 years.

My very own father then asked him why not just live with me for a few years and then decide to get married.  My husband was taken back by this comment.  He asked my father what would he do if he were to live with me, have intimate relations with me, impregnante me, then decide to leave?  That's didn't go well with my father.

Even at the wedding my father told my boss that he did not trust my husband.  I don't know why he would say that to my boss, my job could have been at stake.

But, as it turned out my father came to the wedding, it was his father who not only failed to show but talked with over 40 other people and convinced them not to go as well.

The reason?  Stay tuned for The Story of Us. . . . .

The wedding, and the honeymoon

My wedding was on three different days! Court, Traditional and the White wedding.
The Court was on January 2nd 2003, and it was done in Lagos. There were only 5 people present. My hubby & I and our 2 witnesses (my sister and brother-in-law) and a friend of my sister.
The Traditional ceremony was in my Village, Abonnema, an Island in Rivers State. It was on the 9th of Jan, 2003. That is basically an occassion for the old folks, so I just went along with the whole show for my grannies' sakes!
The White wedding was in port harcourt, on the 11th of Jan 2003. I had so much fun and I really felt happy on that day. I was so relaxed, I didn't feel apprehensive as I thought I would be cos technically, I was already married!
On the evening of my white wedding, there was a Bibife Ceremony, which is a custom of the kalabaris'. Bibife means- Buying of Mouth. The two families (brides' and grooms') drop money in a dish to 'buy' the other families' mouth. The money can be anything from N10-N200, depending on what you feel like giving. It symbolizes that anymember of the other family can eat from the other familys' house, your mouth has been 'bought' and you are free to est there. The money is given to the bride and groom as the reason for the ocassion.
After that, by Esan tradition (my hubbys' tribe) I was escorted to my hubbys' place.
(A family friend of my hubbys' house in my case as none of his immediate family live in PH)

The honey moon? It was in lagos, in my new home, but i'm still livin' it!

Do you think you made a mistake choosing your partner?

No, I don't. Hope I feel this way forever and ever, Amen!

How often you're tempted to be unfaithful and how often you fall

Have never been tempted, so nice try.

How long you think the marriage will last.

Until death do us Part in Jesus' name. Amen!

Amen Fabian! I'll keep your union in my prayers.

I'll add the conflict part of the story today!

Thanks, V! My ears are Twitching!
Dablessed we are waiting for you oh!

Sorry for keeping you all waiting, but I got caught up in another thread https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-2840.0.html .

I will try to post tomorrow.

Meanwhile, my wife is back from Nigeria tomorrow - my days as a lonely part-time single dad with two kids are over

Conflict: The Story of Us Continues.......

Just as Fabian we, too, first got married in Court.  We did this so we would be able to move in together in order to save money for our church wedding in August.  His little sister had been staying with a few "friends" of the family when they moved into the home just as the dad moved out.  She was left alone to them and their devices.  It was midnight, sometime in late May, we received a distress call from her.  Fighting had taken place and they had ganged up on her.

Unit 22 took the call and looked at me.
"She's in trouble, they've been fighting her."
"She can stay with us," was my only reply.

We got dressed quickly and just so we'd get there faster, I drove.  We raced across town and arrived at the apartment complex a little after midnight.  He asked me to wait in the car while he dealt with the situation.  About 20 minutes later they came down together, both carrying bags. 

That night she came into our home was the beginning of our conflict with the father.  The next day he demanded she be returned to the home.  She was unhappy and losing weight, she also had scratches on her face from the night before.  There was no way we'd deliver her back there.  We told him that it we didn't mind caring for her.  He felt it would be a shameful thing for his daughter to be living elsewhere and launched a protest on our marriage.  He went back and talked to almost everyone who was helping us trying to get them to turn on us.  Some did, some didn't.  It was a rough time for our family.

I even called him and asked for this to be put behind us, after all, you only get married the first time once.   Needless to say, he refused.  "It's to late" was all he said on the matter.

The marriage went through without a hitch.  No one asked for him;or rather, they knew not to ask for him.  My father not only showed up but gave us a song in the church and wrote a song that he sung for our first dance.  He also danced the night away being the life of the reception.  Despite the family problems we enjoyed the wedding and the reception. 

We ended up getting the church for free (usually a fee of $500 or more) since it was the same church in which he proposed.  The food was overflowing and people danced late into the night.

Stay tuned for The Story of Us: Honeymoon
