They were introduced as Samuel Kwabena Awuku and Mary Akosua Adanse Anane. They were called to face the whole church and the congregation was asked for the last time whether anyone had something against the wedding. That was the third time they were introduced to the congregation and their wedding announced in church. It means that on the wedding day, that question of whether someone has something to say would not be asked,� News-One sources in the church disclosed on Sunday. The papers checks also showed that Sammi and Mary completed the pre-marriage counseling programme organized by the church about a month ago and alls is set for the wedding which is expected to attract a spectacular crowd.

Boafo, Olympic Torch Bearer Kwami Sefa Kayi of Peace FM and a host of big names in the media. While available information said the reception would be held at the forecourt of the church soon after the wedding ceremony, there are 15 other places speculated as reception venue. The couple is said to have picked purple as its colour theme for the wedding.
