Nigerian Gospel singer, Moses Bliss and his Ghanaian fiancé, Marie Wiseborn on Thursday had their much anticipated traditional marriage with the hashtags #Foreverbliss #MMBliss24 #Foreverbliss24.

The traditional wedding ceremony, acclaimed to be a fusion of Nigerian and Ghanaian cultures held  at the Underbridge, East Legon, in Ghana.

The wedding incorporated cultures from both Nigeria and Ghana, including the Ghanaian “knocking” ceremony, where the groom’s family formally requests the bride’s hand in marriage.

It was a celebration that knitted  together the rich blend of Nigerian and Ghanaian traditions, as the ceremony was thronged with the vibrant shades of traditional Ghanaian attire and Southern Nigeria outfits.

The couple’s attire and that of their  families was a harmonious blend of Ghana’s colorful ‘kente cloth’ and Nigeria’s regal ‘aso-oke’ fabric and George material.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the couple who announced their engagement earlier this year, had their civil wedding in Abuja, on February 27.

The singer’s bride, Marie Agyare-Wiseborn, is a UK-based Lawyer  and a pastor’s daughter.
