EVE BRIDAL: How did you meet?

Alicia: We met in campus.

EB: What attracted you to each other?

Rados?aw: Her independent mind and character made her irresistible.

EB: How did he propose?

Alicia: He invited me to Entebbe and while at the shores of Lake Victoria gave me a white gold and diamond ring. I could not resist, so I said, “Yes”.

Alicia: It was difficult getting a goat and lamb to be slaughtered for our guests. They actually came one hour before the wedding ceremony.

EB: What part did you love most about the planning process and the wedding day?

Alicia: We loved the fact that the two of us planned the event without a committee and the wedding turned out successful.

EB: How did your wedding day go?

Alicia: Perfect! It even ended with the bliss of rain.

EB: What lessons would you share with other brides and grooms concerning marriage and planning for a wedding?

Alicia: Plan well, early and alone since it is your day. This enables you to make it the way you want. Also, avoid borrowing money, but rather start saving early. On the eventful day, make sure you have fun and be natural
