In an unusual turn of events, Edward Futakamba went ahead with his wedding ceremony despite his bride, Mary, pulling out at the last minute. Edward and Mary, who have a three-year-old daughter, had planned their wedding for July 26, 2024. However, the bride's family objected to the marriage just days before the event due to an unresolved dowry payment.
The wedding committee tried to resolve the issue, but were unable to reach an agreement. According to the committee's secretary, the bride's side raised concerns about an unpaid dowry amounting to two hundred thousand. Despite these complications, Edward decided to proceed with the ceremony, stating, "It's part of life; the most important thing is to celebrate and be happy, regardless of the outcome."
The decision to continue with the wedding without the bride led to mixed reactions online. Some people congratulated Edward, while others criticized the situation and the way it was handled.
In a separate incident, a bridesmaid left a wedding dress fitting after discovering hurtful messages about herself on the bride's phone. The bridesmaid had been asked to photograph bridal gowns for the chief bridesmaid, but stumbled upon messages mocking her fashion sense.
