âLove is a beautiful thing,â they say, and a recent wave of engagements and weddings in Nigerian gospel music seems to confirm it. Since the heartwarming engagement of Sunmisola Agbebi last March, news of gospel singers finding their âgood thingâ has filled the headlines.
Check out the gospel singers who found their happily ever after in the last year.
Sumisola Agbebi and Yinka Okeleye
âThe love of my life said yes!â In an intimate ceremony with their closest friends in March, amidst red and white balloons, and a violinist playing a romantic melody, Yinka got down on one knee and asked Sunmisola to marry him. Of course, you know the answer.
Months later, the couple had an introduction ceremony to formally introduce their families and a wedding ceremony in June to seal the union, making them Mr and Mrs.
Veekee James
Kicking off 2024 in style, popular fashion designer Veekee James, the voice behind âOlugbeja,â tied the knot with Femi Atere in a spectacular wedding. The #LoveUnbeaten24 coupleâs celebrations, from their introduction to the white wedding, were a delightful and fashionable experience.
Months earlier, Femi proposed to Veekee in a beautiful setting. âI said YES to my sweetest love Femi   on the 10th of June, 2023! I thought he was taking me out on a dinner date but he already planned to ask me to be his wife! I said YES without a doubt!â

Moses Bliss
In January, Moses Bliss surprised everyone by announcing his engagement to Marie Wiseborn on social media. The proposal took place in London in a beautiful orchestra in a setting surrounded by friends. Moses even serenaded Marie with a special performance before popping the question and getting a resounding âyesâ!
Barely a month later, their love story culminated in a beautiful February wedding ceremony in Ghana. The celebrations included a civil and traditional ceremony, officially making them Mr. and Mrs. Bliss.
Thatâs not all, Moses Bliss also released an entire EP titled âLove Testamentâ filled with love songs dedicated to his wife, Marie, and the love they share.

Theophilus Sunday
The year has barely started, and then boom, Theophilus Sunday announced his engagement to Ashlee White on his Instagram page
And by the weekend, they wasted no time in announcing that they were legally married
Neon AdejoÂ
âOne quick date in LONDON, now the rest is history đ This woman is so special đ€ Best decision after salvationđȘâŠâ These are the sweet words Neon said about his proposal to his love, Lade Kehinde.
The proposal video was accompanied by an intimate love song named after her âLadeâ
King James
Afrogospel singer Jacob, known as King James got engaged too. He proposed to his love Victory Usoro, making it the second engagement this month, March.
Called Out Music
UK-based singer and songwriter, Samuel Nwachukwu, mostly known as âCalled Out Music,â also got married this month
Weâre seeing a recent surge in weddings in the Christian community this year. Could this be related to the prophecy from 2023 by Nathaniel Bassey regarding âKingdom marriagesâ in 2024?
Congratulations to all the couples, and we look forward to hearing more good news.
We not only love all the engagement and wedding announcements, but we also love the accompanying love songs by the gospel singers themselves. Weâve curated a list for you. Check it out here.
