South African Gay Wedding – first in KwaDukuza

You may kiss the groom - Tshepo and Thoba

Kiyo: Two young men tied the knot in a rare South African gay wedding in KwaDukuza (Stranger) on Saturday.
In what was described as the town’s first gay marriage, Tshepo Modisane and Thoba Sithole, both 27, walked down the aisle in front of 200 guests at the Stanger Siva Sungam community hall.
Thoba, a Joburg-based IT specialist, is from Shakaville, KwaDukuza and Tshepo an audit manager at PwC. They have known each other for years and dated on and off, before stabilising their relationship.
Tshepo said one of the reasons they chose to be so open was that they “hope to inspire people out there who are still struggling to come to terms with their sexuality”.
“We see no reason to hide in darkness as if there is something to be ashamed about.
“Our marriage is largely symbolic and a sign that black gay men can commit and build a family through a happy and loving marriage,” he said.
The couple are reportedly planning to have children through a surrogate.
Pastor Tankiso Mokwena who married the couple said “This is my first wedding of this kind,”

Filo: You may kiss the groom, nwa o kiss the groom nwa. How your body dey do you; imagine say Gordons marry Adams Oshiomole
