"Legally they are married though. Once lobolo has been paid either partial or fully you married in terms of customary law and in community of property if no Ante nuptial contract was signed."

@thobekayose3165 replied:

"Aah what a beautiful ceremony Anele. And I must agree with you; the Madiba's singing and choreography was on point! And the couple was at their happiest!"
