Narrated
The beautiful couple were standing in-front of their family, close friends, colleagues, the pastor and most importantly God. As the pastor is continuing with the ceremony. The couple is having a lot of feeling about this. Khathu is feeling on top of the world for many reasons. He is happy because he is going to be a father and a husband. He was a bit nervous because he is stepping into this life changing moment, this is basically new territory for him. But knowing Khathu he knows he will excel in this.
Zinhle is feeling a lot of emotions. She is excited that she is getting married, she is nervous about this huge commitment of marriage and he going to a new family, learning their new culture, being a mother. A wife and trying to juggle a career. But she has faith that she'll get through it.
Now it is time for their vows, they choose to make their own vows for one another. So Zinhle goes first. "Khathutshelo Lawrance Mulaudzi today we become one, today we start this new journey of marriage together. Today I get to shout my love for you out loud. Firstly I want thank God for allowing to cross paths. Even though how we began this relationship was not on normal basis we made it work together. You came into my life in a time I gave up on love, you made me believe that love is true. You showed me how gentle, sife, sweet and how kind love is. You loved me through me imperfections. Kunezizathu eziningi zokuthi ngikuthande. Ngiyamthanda ububele bakho kubo bonke abantu abasizungezile, kungakhathalekile ukuthi basemazingeni aphezulu noma aphansi. Ngiyamthanda ukuzithoba kwakho njengomuntu — awuvumeli imali ukuthi ikuguqule noma ikushintshele indlela obabheka ngayo. Ngiyamthanda ukuthi uzinze kangakanani enkolweni — ungumuntu owesaba uNkulunkulu, futhi ngiyakwazi lokho. Ungumuntu engizibona ngikhula naye ngize ngiguge, kungakhathalekile ukuthi kwenzekani kithi. Ungumuntu wami. (there are so many reason why I love you. i love how kind you are to everyone around us no matter the status. I love how humble you are as a person you don't allow money to change you and how you see them. I love how rooted you are in faith you are a god-fearing man and i love that. you are the person I see me growing old with no matter what happens to us. you are my person.) I cannot wait to start this journey with you start a family, create an empire with you. I hope that god continues to show favour upon us and our union. I love you s'thandwa sam'. Sizohlukanisa ukufa baby wami." Zinhle says her vows to Khahtu and while crying. Lehu hands her a tissue. Fulfilling her maid of honour role.
Now it is Khathus turn. " I can't believe that we are getting married together. Today shows how good God is. I knew I wanted you to be my wife the first time I saw you. When I saw you at Woolworth I thought to myself wow she is beautiful. But you didn't give me the time of day. Lol. Then I saw you gain at Doppio and I knew that it was a sign. But when you told me you were geeting married to someone else made me so angry to say the lest. I wished that you were getting married to me. when I found out it was me to say I was over the moon was an understatement. From that day I knew that I had to win your heart and the fact that we are standing together proved that I won. Murathu wanga, no vhuya na mmbona ndi kha vhupo ha fhasi vhukuma, nahone no ima na nne. No ntsumbedza uri lufuno lwanu lwo dzika hani kha nne. Ndi a livhuwa. Fulufhelo ḽine nda ḓo dzula ndi tshi ni fulufhedzisa ndi ḽa uri ndi ḓo dzula ndi tshi ni tsireledza na u tsireledza pfaneleo yaṋu, ndi ni funa nga mbilu yoṱhe, ndi ni ṱhogomele unga tshiṱuwo, ndi vha muthu ane na nga ḓi mu ṱhonifha, nahone ndi ni sumbedza uri ndi ngani ri tshi fanela u aluwa roṱhe. Ndi fulufhedzisa u ni funa. (my love, you have seen me at my literal lowest and you stuck by through it showed me how deep you love for me is. thank you. the one promise i'll always make to you is that i'll always protect you and your honour, love you deeply, treat you like an egg, be the man you deserve, and show you why we need to grow together. i promise to love you.) I cannot wait to build with you. And grow with you. To forever together. I love you Zinhle." Khathu says to Zinhle. He got a bit emotional. Such beautiful word shared by the couple
