A lot happened over the weekend and one of our highlights certainly has got to be the white wedding of Tamaryn Green and Zesimdumise Nxumalo. The former Miss South Africa and first runner-up Miss Universe 2018 said yes to her businessman husband as they walked down the aisle on Saturday at their white wedding ceremony in Stellenbosch leaving guests and Mzansi feeling all kinds of mushy.
The couple first made their relationship official in 2019 and then Ze followed with a proposal in April 2020 proving that when you know, indeed you know. He also paid lobola for the medical doctor last year, a moment that took Mzansi by a good shock as we all saw the two celebrating love at their uMembeso ceremony in Paarl, the Western Cape last October.
Culturally, the Zulu tradition involved the coming together of the Green and Nxumalo families, filled with dances, animal sacrifices, and gifts exchanges. Dr. Tamaryn Green was dressed in a bright blue gown adorned with African beads, paired with a matching isicholo (traditional Zulu hat), a look designed by local fashion designer Sello Medupe who is known for his brand Scalo and is a favorite to many celebs including Kelly Khumalo's, Thando Thabethe, Sindi Dhlathu, to Thembi Seete.
She’s since shared her joy in a lengthy Instagram post saying, “Woke up this morning to the sound of the rain and I remember thinking this is God showering us with His blessings. It might be a muddy day but so it will be.” She continued writing, “I could not have asked for a more fun, loving special day celebrating with God at the center” as she thanked everyone for their presence and well wishes for their uMembeso ceremony.
This past week was nothing less than fabulous and classy, and the 2018 Miss South Africa looked all kinds of gorgeous together with her husband as they celebrated what Mzansi has now deemed “wedding of the year'' at the beautiful Quoin Rock Wine Estate in Stellenbosch, also in the Western Cape.
While the couple or their guests have not shared pictures from the wedding yet, a short video clip of the couple walking down the aisle with their guests celebrating them was shared by local pop culture reporter Musa Khawula on Twitter yesterday and everyone was left stunned.
Dr. Tamaryn, who has not shied away from showing her hubby on social media has not posted anything from her wedding yet but we cannot wait for when she does. She only teased beautiful pictures from her bridal shower where we’re seeing her on the Gram wearing a beautiful white and green Natalia Jefferey dress posing with her longtime squad of bridesmaids.
The Twitter streets, as always, reacted to the video of the couple from their wedding with many positive messages of love being passed around. Many called this “wedding of the year” adding that it screams wealth and you cannot disagree with that.
One user wasn’t impressed by the leaked video from the pair’s wedding saying that posting a video from a private wedding is “tacky” but that didn’t stop everyone from commenting and congratulating them.
