Love can truly begin anywhere—even in a DM! That’s the case for a Nigerian couple, Ayodele and Mowati, whose story proves that taking the first step can lead to forever.

Ayodele recently got married to a beautiful pharmacist named Mowati, who had boldly sent him a message on social media. That one message was the beginning of their sweet love journey.

On Thursday, July 10, Ayodele shared a joyful moment from their court wedding. He posted a photo from the event, proudly showing that their online connection had now turned into something legal and lasting.

In the caption, he wrote: “It started with a DM and now it’s in government records.” His words showed just how much that small message had changed their lives.

Interestingly, his wife, Mowati, reposted the same photo and added a fun twist—she confirmed that she was the one who made the first move!

She wrote: “I sent the DM btw. Send that DM today.” Her message was both playful and inspiring, encouraging others not to wait too long to shoot their shot.

This beautiful love story reminds us that sometimes, all it takes is a simple message to meet the love of your life. So if you’re thinking about sending that DM—this might be your sign!
