What began as a target for mockery has become a testimony of enduring love for Uncle Wowo and his wife, the couple who went viral last year for using bread as their wedding cake.
In a heartfelt anniversary post, Uncle Wowo shared that many didn’t believe they actually used bread on their wedding day. Things got even tougher when his bride’s makeup artist failed to show up, leaving her with no professional touch on her big day.
To make matters worse, some friends quickly posted their wedding photos online—not to celebrate them, but to mock them. However, their plans backfired when almost every major blog in Nigeria picked up the story, turning their pain into massive publicity.
Now, one year later, Uncle Wowo proudly declares that their love is still bouncing and waxing strong.
“Here’s to one year of unstoppable bread in our home,” he wrote.
“After wedding, marriage dey. Reason am well before you try to impress anybody for one day.”
