The daughter in law of veteran Nollywood actors, Joke Silva and Olu Jacob, Blessing Doughlas, has revealed that her wedding to Soji cost over N10million.
In a recent interview granted by the newly wedded wife, Blessing explained that her wedding cost a fortune and the designer for the dress she intends to rock for the white wedding is Lanre Dasilva.
Gracing the cover of KOKO rides, she revealed details concerning the love of her life as well as what she makes him special. Check out excerpts below;
How did you meet Soji and how long have you guys been dating?
I met Soji in Lagos. I have known his mother for like 5 years because I have worked with her in quite a few projects, so based on that relationship.
I got to know the rest of the family members, which includes Soji, his brothers, and his father. We started dating in 2016 when I graduated from the college and went to Lagos for my NYSC.
Why is Soji so special?
He is everything I ever prayed for in a man. He is very calm and very disciplined.
He is religious as well, not in terms of being self-righteous or being a fanatic, but he respects God and upholds the biblical principles and so I was drawn to all those qualities.
Most importantly, he knows how to say “I’m sorry” when he is in the wrong and when he is in the right.
We also have communication about everything, because communication they say, is the most essential in any relationship and so we communicate a lot.
It is the most expensive and the highest in the land because it is the king that gives you out, so everything I am wearing is expensive.
Can you give an estimate of what the wedding cost in terms of preparation?
The preparation cost over 10 million because this house as you can see is still being re-painted.
There was a lot of renovation and everything. You will get to see more in Porthacourt.
I’m sure you are seeing a lot of security presence, making sure everyone is fine. You have also seen the caliber of people coming in.
Who will be designing your dress for the white wedding?
Lanre Dasilva
