I remember clearly last year April , i got a call from My Aunty telling me "my uncle is getting married " i was like "which uncle ? " she said uncle tope is getting married o . Apparently thats her son . Although I had never met him at that time, I was happy sha that means Owambe party ;). She also said i get to be part of the bridal train as the bridesmaid. I was happy o , Anyways i had exams at that time so i couldn't go to the tailor's place to check my dress . Id sent my measurements to the tailor and my plan was on that day ,id get to the church early so i could change to my bridesmaids dress .
Finally, The day arrived May 9th . I wasnt early enough to the church because i had to get my make up done . I sha got there ,took the dress and went to change ,To say i was utterly disappointed with the dress is an understatement . It was a blue dress ,actually a good design but i had one problem with this dress and i should have expected something like this because well,"Nigerian tailors " can like to overdo . The problem i had with this dress is that the tailor decided to put breast pad for me ππ©. I was angry like" who sent this one abeg " i had to complain to her amd she was like because they told her i was 15 so the dress would have fitting blah blah thats why she put it . Anyways there was nothing i could do . My chest was looking like "balloon " ππ,i wore the dress like that got in the church and sat with the other bridesmaids.
Fastforward to after church, we took pictures and all and then entered car to go to reception at ikeja . When i was in the car ,i told the other bridesmaids about my dress and the unnecessary breast pad, the girls were like is that the only problem with mine and i said yes. They were like atleast i could go home and remove it and wear again but theirs were tight and one of the girls had to use a safety pin on her dress π. Mine was the only one that had a minor problem .
On our way to ikeja, there was traffic so the driver said he knew a shortcut to take us to reception on time. We didn't mind. On getting to our shortcut the traffic was far worse than the normal route . Then the bride called saying she's already there ,asking for our location.the driver talked to her and said we are almost there . One hour later ,still stuck in traffic ,even the groomsmen that were following us from church were already at the reception. So since they were calling because the couple couldn't enter without us we decided to WALK thereπ so we had to remove our heels and since we didn't have slippers we walked barefoot on Express ! You should have seen people saying "ah,sorry o","eyaa" your dress is touching ground" and it rained earlier that day . I was embarrased but it was funny. We saw a man trying to take a photo of us,see the way we ran forward,who knows whether the man works with a Newspaper and we'd see our photos on the headlines π©. Finally cars begun to move and the driver caught up with us . The driver na did as if he didn't see us ,he was probably vexed that we left him in the car or so idc. He later stopped to pick us after making us run and everybody was looking at us π. After ten minutes, we got to the reception. Glory be to God,but No my story doesn't stop here .
After we danced in ,we decided to go get food. That's how one lady came to meet me and said her "boss" wants to see me ππ. I told the other bridesmaids what the lady said and i told the woman that im busy and i want to eat .she left told me her boss is sitting under one place . I laughed and ate my food . My mum na told me to drop something in the car
And as i was going ,some of the groomsmen were calling me ,i didn't answer they were not handsome π and they were prolly too old for me . I kept on hearing my name but i didn't look back ,assuming it was them . Only for me to hear my dad say "moyin,are you deaf ?"ππ. I turned and i saw my dad ,chai and the groomsmen were now laughing. Anyways, i still didn't answer them, i only talked to one cos he was good looking and a gentleman. I was helping the bride change to her reception dress , when i came out only for me to see this same lady saying her boss wants to see me , i ignored her only for the woman to start pulling me . I quickly pulled away and walked fast to the hall . I ate ,danced took pictures and the rest of the wedding went well but the wedding is not something that i can easily forget. Oh and i met my "uncle tope" that day .π .
That's my funny experience π
