The wait is finally over for fans of one of Kigali’s most beloved couples. Miss Rwanda Naomie Nishimwe and her fiancé Michael Tesfay have officially announced their wedding date this December 29, sending waves of excitement across social media.
In a breathtaking Instagram post, the couple shared photos from what appeared to be a save-the-date photoshoot, looking nothing short of spectacular. Naomie looking like a fire emoji in a jaw-dropping long, corset-style red dress, designed by Buphora. Michael complemented her perfectly giving us major James Bond vibes, in an all-black ensemble, sporting a sleek suit paired with a black t-shirt.
The caption accompanying their radiant photos read: “We’re excited to announce that our wedding dates are set, and we can’t wait to share this special moment with all of you! SAVE THE DATE! You know what it is! Invitations on the way.”
Now, let’s rewind this love story for those who’ve been living under a Wi-Fi-less rock. Our favorite pair first set tongues wagging back in early 2022. A few months later, they went “Instagram official” (because if it’s not on the ‘gram, did it even happen?), blessing our feeds with many couple pics. Since then, they have been showered with affection from their supporters, quickly becoming one of Kigali’s most adored couples.
Fast forward to January 2024, and Michael pulled off a proposal that probably had even the most cynical among us reaching for the tissue box. And now, here we are, counting down the days until the two make it official-official.
The internet has been abuzz since the announcement, with fans and well-wishers flooding social media platforms to express their joy. As the countdown to December 29, 2024, begins, fans and followers of this charismatic couple eagerly await more details about what is sure to be a spectacular celebration of love.
