A story that started 26 years ago, friends turned lovers, a love that was ordained by God himself.

It all really began with our parents, who were friends before we were born. Our mums would visit each other when we were babies and I guess somewhere in the month of December 1997 is when we met... we are certain that since then they have been plotting for us to get married.

Tracy's account: "For some reason Ben wasn't very fond of me when we were kids... he would always bully me, make fun of my clothes and tell me to " go away mannn". His cousins would tease him saying that he had a crush on me and he would always get angry, cry and deny it. The guy has been feeling me, he was just in denial! Ben would probably say I am the one that made the first move but I call it "correctly positioning myself", either way it worked.

Ben has always been there for me, through my happiest times and through my ugliest cries, Ben has always been my go to person. No one could bring me as much happiness as he did and still does. I am happy to have grown up together, my best friend and now my soon to be husband, I wouldn't have had it any other way... some would say it's God ordained. "

Ben's account: "As we are well aware there are always two sides to every story. So firstly, the above ain't true, Tracy's always had a thing for me and to be honest I can't blame her, I am kinda cute haha. She also didn't "correctly position herself", she moved to me, asking me what my favourite colour is you know.. (dead game but it worked). But of course I was hearing it, it only made sense. Who else but T.

Contrary to her claims, I have always been fond of Tracy, she's always been my G. Our friendship has blossomed into an unbreakable bond, which I guess means I have to marry her now. I'm excited to spend the rest of my life with T, my favourite person, wouldn't have had it any other way"

We have always been together, been there for each other, all the way from childhood. Now look at us, about to get married, who would have thought...
