Nigerian gospel singer Steve Crown and his wife, Ruth, have set social media abuzz after a video surfaced showing the bride kneeling to take her vows at their wedding ceremony.
The video, posted by fellow gospel singer Joe Praize on Instagram, captured the emotional moment Ruth, dressed in a stunning white gown, knelt before her husband to pledge her lifelong commitment.
With emotional words, she promised to be his “heaven of peace” and a “source of unwavering support.”
In her vows, Ruth said:
“I will be your heaven of peace and source of unwavering support. I vow to reason with an open heart and to share my dreams. I promise to be your cheerleader, your partner, and your anchor. With you, I have discovered the true essence of love, and I vow to cherish it with all that I am. I vow to love you unconditionally, I choose you every day, and to honour our secret bond.”
