Bold Proposal Moment Highlights Geosteady’s V&A Powered Valentine’s Concert

Valentine’s Day happened over the weekend. As you may know, it is more than just a day; for some, it is affirmation, while for others, it is the day they make that move.

On Saturday night, at the Geosteady Blackman Live in concert, Mark Emecu, one of the revelers decided to make that move. Amidst performances, before DJ Nimrod could announce the next act to take the stage, he said that he had a bouquet and a bottle of V&A Sherry to gift one lucky couple.

Ugandans being the shy type, the bubbly DJ invited one bold couple to make their way to the stage.

As many seemed to take forever to make up their minds and others sheepishly hid from the roving camera, Eceru walked slowly behind DJ Nimrod and Henrie, the evening’s co-host.

Holding a lady’s hand, he asked for a microphone and said a few inaudible things, then he went on his knees and asked for her hand in marriage. The lady, later identified as Elizabeth Bondeyike, shocked, covered her face with her palm, briefly tempted to run off stage before coming back and giving him her hand.

“Yes, Mark, forever,” she said.

Speaking about the moment, Rochart Kaweesa, the Brand Manager for V&A Sherry, was proud that his brand had set the perfect opportunity for the lovebirds to commit. “As V&A Sherry, we stand for sharing moments and celebrating love in ways that are bold, heartfelt, unforgettable. We are honoured that we could be part of Elizabeth and Mark’s beautiful beginning of a big stage in their lives.”
