The couple, who is expecting their first child together, exchanged their vows at the KKKT Church in Mbezi Beach Dar es salaam.
Like in many weddings, especially in Africa, where the gifting culture is cherished, Nandy revealed they received Tsh106,806,500 (Sh5.4million) from their committee as a send-off gift.

Taking to Instagram, Nandy, who was beautifully dressed in a blue Cinderella gown, posted a photo while receiving the cheque from the wedding committee.
"Kamati ya kipare…. Aaaaaah nyie nime sendofiwa bwana. Mungu anipe nini mimi @billnass your a blessing hubby," Nandy captioned the photo.
According to the chairman, the committee also gifted the couple a car worth Tsh65million (Sh3.3 million).
"This is a small amount that was remaining, we will put it in their account. We felt like the cheque is not enough because they are artistes and they have a big team. With this gift, we have decided to also buy them a car which is worth Tsh65 million," said the committee's chairman.
For the wedding day, the Nimekuzoea hitmaker, real name, Faustina Charles Mfinanga, put on a sparkly, off-white, off-shoulder ball gown wedding dress and needed help from her bridesmaids to move around.
The couple, who got engaged in 2020, did their traditional wedding in Zanzibar four months ago and only announced the pregnancy news two weeks ago.
Nandy and Bill Nass have been in an on-and-off relationship since their University days when they secretly dated before breaking up.
"Nandy and I broke up in 2017, actually a few months earlier, it's just that we never made it official until the end of 2017. There were so many reasons why we couldn't continue dating, one being that I was still in school and was trying to you know…. finish and all that," said Bill Nass in an interview.
Nandy went on to date Ruge Mutahaba, who unfortunately passed away on February 26, 2019, after a short ailment.
The couple rekindled their love later, with Bill Nass proposing to the songstress. After that, however, Nandy shocked many after dissolving their engagement and calling off their relationship in 2021.
“Mlitegemea Kuniona mimi na Nenga (Billnass) Tukiendelea, mambo yamebadilika na simuoni tena ila Namuombea” Nandy wrote.
