Benedicta the singing, dancing bride

Brides are known to dance for joy during their marriage ceremonies, but singing with the choir as well on one's wedding day is not very common.

On December 24, 2022, Benedicta Gyimaah Folley performed a song as the lead singer with her church (Abundant Life Worship Center) choir, during the solemnisation of holy matrimony with her beloved, Zadok Kwame Gyesi, in Accra.

 Her dancing skills as well were on display, during both the nuptials and the refreshment thereafter.

Can you begrudge her? Of course not! It was a day to be happy, joyful and make merry. As she showed, it was also a day to sing and dance.

#Edmages captured some of the singing and dancing scenes and shares them here.

He who finds a wife has found a good thing, so the Good Book says. 

So when the High Priest, Zadok Kwame Gyesi found his missing rib, Benedicta Gyimaah Folley and 'welded' her at the Abundant Life Worship Center, Accra New Town, on Saturday, December 24, 2022, his joy knew no bounds. As for Bene, she was on cloud nine.

And what a way to celebrate Christmas! They both had each other as the most cherished presents on the eve of Christmas Day.

#Edmages wishes the love birds an exciting journey together as husband and wife.
