The Genesis

Picture of The Genesis

Our story began most unexpectedly—one of those moments that only makes sense when you look back. We first crossed paths on the Valley View campus, but back then, we were just strangers whose eyes might have met briefly and exchanged contact. It wasn’t until a fateful reconnection online that our story truly began. I (Michael) reached out on Facebook, drawn to Ohemaa’s warmth and charm, and couldn’t help but let her know my heart was already all in—I just needed her to consider giving it a chance. Though cautious, Ohemaa eventually said “yes,” and with that, a beautiful friendship took root and blossomed into something even deeper. Life took us on different paths for a while, but fate, as they say, had its plans.


Despite years apart, we reconnected, picking up right where we left off. For five years, ours was a love that thrived online. Though we rarely saw each other in person, we learned to trust in our love through messages, calls, and late-night conversations.


Our love story has been a journey, and we’ll be the first to tell you it wasn’t always easy, but every moment apart made this moment worth it. Here we are against all odds, ready to exchange our vows and live a life side by side, forever grateful for the journey that brought us here. finally ready to say “I do” in person.


Ohemaa, my evergreen love, we made it. So, to everyone who has supported us along the way, thank you. As we step into forever, we carry your love and blessings with us. We’re excited to start this next chapter hand in hand—finally, as husband and wife.
