One of the bride’s family members filmed the lobola negotiations where the European man adorably followed Pedi procedures and butchered most of them. The chap had African companions who helped him successfully impress his future in-laws.
During the negotiations, a MacBook was present, which amused the 1.1 million people who watched the now-viral video. Other than the iOS device being part of the ceremony, South Africans pointed out that the Italian groom was not supposed to be part of the negotiations.
The excited chap was elated to correctly pick his bride under the multiple blankets presented to him by the family. He chose well and was happy to begin married life with his soulmate.
The family celebrated after the negotiations and enjoyed a small gathering in the garden. The couple were in happy spirits as they danced with the excited family and created now-viral TikTok videos.
The lobola negotiations video was posted on the bride’s social media and trended on TikTok with the caption:
“An Italian negotiation, part one.”
Although a lot of people were happy for the couple, some people gave out backhanded compliments. One Mzansi lady, @Sharon, said:
“I am divorced from one, good luck.”
