Our story

How we got
here

Seven years in four moments
2019
How we met
First meeting

How we met

A friend's birthday at La Pizzeria in Osu. Kojo arrived late, Ama was leaving early — they spent the whole evening at the corner table instead.

2021
Our first home
Building a life

Our first home

A small apartment off Spintex with a kitchen too small for both of us, and a balcony exactly big enough for two cups of coffee at sunrise.

2024
The proposal
Yes

The proposal

Christmas Eve at Cape Three Points. Kojo asked, the ocean was loud, and Ama said yes before he could finish the sentence.

2026
The wedding day
December 19

The wedding day

A garden ceremony in the late afternoon, a candlelit dinner under acacia trees, and a long, slow dance with the people we love most.

The details

Everything you
need to know

One garden, one long evening. Arrive between four and four-fifteen so we can start the ceremony as the light begins to soften. Stay for the dinner. Stay for the dancing. Stay until the last song.
