Mandleni & Slondile

Mandleni and Slondile have a unique love story. This couple didn't go through a lengthy courtship to get to the aisle. Neither did they have a short courtship. By normal societal standards, they didn';t have a courtship at all!

Before the became each others' betrothed, the couple weren't lovers. They were just church-mates. They met at church, and didn't have any form of relationship outside of the church. After praying, it was revealed to Mandleni that Slondile should be his wife.

He didn't approach her with the information. He followed strict church procedure and declared his desire with the pastor and his wife first, who called Slondile aside separately and told her that Mandleni had asked for her hand. She then took some time and dedicated herself to prayer, looking for the green light from God.

Mandleni was over the moon when she accepted the proposal, and the wedding preparations began. They didn't go to cake tastings and venue viewings alone together. Any meeting between them had to be chaperoned by third party until the day of the wedding. They've never spent time alone together, but after they become man and wife in a beautiful garden ceremony, they will get to spend all the alone time they like!
