A 23-year-old Kenyan bride, Nelly Chepkoech, has reportedly cancelled her wedding a few hours before the ceremony.
Nelly and her fiancé, Amos,
were slated to exchange vows on Saturday, December 9, 2023, in Bomet County.
According to Citizen Digital,
Nelly reached out to the priest just hours before the ceremony, expressing her desire
to postpone the wedding.
The publication stated that
Pastor Clement Chalulot of Kapsoyo AGC Church, who was set to preside over the
ceremony, the unexpected turn of events occurred when Nelly expressed
reluctance to proceed with the wedding, citing a need for more time to decide
on formalising their marriage.
"The communication from
the presiding reverend that the bride had changed her mind halted everything
and brought the entire plans to a halt,” explained Pastor Chalulot.
Leaked WhatsApp chats from the
wedding committee’s group revealed a message circulated to inform members and
the public about the unexpected change in plans.
"Hi everyone, hope you are
fine. Thanks for your support towards Amos and Nelly’s wedding. This is an
official communication to our members here and the public at large. OUR
SCHEDULED WEDDING PLANNED FOR TOMORROW has been postponed until further notice.
We will communicate with you, and we are sorry for the inconvenience. Thanks
for your understanding,” stated a committee member.
Curiosity and speculation ran
high within the group, prompting inquiries from concerned members seeking
clarity on the sudden change.
A close friend of the couple
and a member of the wedding committee responded, revealing that Nelly had
expressed doubts about proceeding with the wedding.
"Good morning friends,
many friends of Amos and Nelly are calling me asking me why the wedding was
postponed. The MAIN REASON is NELLY REQUESTED TO BE GIVEN MORE TIME. The CHURCH
and the parents from both sides CONSIDERED her request. Thanks for
understanding.”
Despite this explanation,
members of the WhatsApp group continued to press for more details, questioning
whether Nelly was the cause of the delay.
“Tell us why the wedding has
been postponed. Let’s see if we can help our girl; it’s important for us to
know if she is the cause of the postponement. I see you people keep mentioning
Amos, Amos [like he is the cause])”
Meanwhile, speculation have
risen regarding Nelly's sudden change of heart, with some suggesting that her
former lover returned.
It was gathered that Nelly
dated her ex for five years and had dated Amos, the groom, for six months.
