Thank you to steemit platform and @steemghana for giving us the opportunity to share our daily activities with the family in this community.
Today being the 16th of August and also a Friday, I was invited to a close friend wedding ceremony taking place in Tamale in the Northern Region.
The name of the groom was Ibrahim whiles the bride was Ramatu.
Ibrahim and Ramatu were two great lovers who have been in a lovely and romantic relationship for some years now. So I was very happy when I learned that they have planned to move their relationship to another level.
Today, I went to the groom's house around the hours of 8:00am in the morning to help escort the groom and his family to the bride's house. It was an Islamic wedding so the family was tasked to move to the bride's home to tie the knot and make it official in a mosque.
It was really an experience from the bride's home as they welcomed us with so much respect and dignity.
The cleric in charge of the knot tying delivered an important and powerful sermon to admonish us in paying attention to the women we always fell in love with and the women we always consider for marriage. He made us understand that marriage is a life time journey and so there is the need to choose a partner who is compatible with you and also ready to help you the man achieve your dreams.
He made us also to understand we shouldn't focus and pay more attention to the physical nature of women we are considering for marriage as looks might be deceptive.
He encouraged us to get closer to them and pay attention to how they behave, think and react to issues as that will give us a better view of the kind of women we are to marry as wives.
I enjoyed the sermon and as well learned a lot of lessons from it as a bachelor who is also aspiring to marry and make my own family in the future.
He made me understand that I shouldn't marry because of my selfish desires, but I should rather marry a woman who will have a positive and great impact on my kids and family.
By 10:00am we were done with the sermon and the necessary rights needed to be performed. The bride and groom took some pictures and it was very lovely.

We went home and continue with the partying. They had varieties of food at our disposal but I personally opted for Banku and Okro stew. We continue with having more fun till the evening where we were given the go ahead to move to our various homes.
It was really a nice wedding and I wish the groom and bride an everlasting marriage life full of happiness and joy.

The best part of marriage I always enjoy is when they starts to share the food. Lol. And of course, I presented them with my gift although I really enjoyed the food they served me😁
