The Presidential Wedding

May 3, 2011 by Brown Shuga

Pictures of Dudu Zuma and Lonwabo Sambudla’s wedding are available from www.zaronline.co.za, as they were given the exclusive rights but here are a few to whet your appetite.

The couple got married at Inkwenkwezi Private Reserve in East London.

…and the traditional wedding followed the next day.

Dudu was walked down the aisle by her dad, uMsholozi.

Her publicist says that she designed the dress herself with the help of her friend Roslyn Holland.

I love her tatoos.

Looks like entertainment was provided by Kenny… Somizi, Miriam Ngomani, Tansey Coetzee and Khanyi Mbau were not at the wedding as reported in the Sunday Times. They weren’t invited. There were also no 12 Lamborghinis, the only Lambos at the wedding belonged to Kenny Kunene and his people. The bride arrived in a mini-bus, and then got into that rickshaw with her dad to get to the ceremony.

I don’t see why they used the rickshaw though… would’ve been more suited to the traditional ceremony, I think.

Kenny and his date… she’s that voice on YFM’s breakfast show… her name, let’s just call her Kenny’s girl. (I guess the baby mama he spoke lovingly of on Room 6 to 9 was not available to attend.)

Check out the rest of the pictures on www.zaronline.co.za. They also have info on Timbaland’s upcoming tour of SA.

Congratulations to Dudu and Sonwabo on their wedding, we wish them a happy and long marriage. She looked very happy on her big day

this gal with Kenny its the one on Y mornin with Mo? Wow glad to finally see her.. she bores me shame especially when she starts the #WhenIwasinLondon nonsense.. whooo, and the #MyfatherisItalian ish, i get naar shem. My father is a MFENGU so what, must the whole Jozisburg know that? or is it special when its Italian? ai ai ai uNontombi needs to RELAX maan yhuu. I love it when young ppl make a success of themselves and get up there to celebville, manje baske baphaphe. I mean we heard the 1st time abt her Dad no need to remind us all the time about her being half what what. yhooo she must ask Tbo Touch what we do to ppl abasixhomela ngama oversea, we get BORED!!!.. kekekeke
I missed JC… hugs to all yall

Nthoentle on Tue, 3rd May 2011 12:13 pm

MiniAyeye on Tue, 3rd May 2011 12:21 pm

wuuu ring tsa bone di pila yang!!!mara makoti wa di tattoo hainever SMH its too wrong

Sweet soul on Tue, 3rd May 2011 12:42 pm

Haibo MiniAyeye whats wrong ngomakoti onamaTattoo?

TheBrand on Tue, 3rd May 2011 12:48 pm

Looks like a no-frills affair. I don’t know what I like more- knowing that not a lot of taxpayers’ money was used, or that Khanyi Mbau wasn’t there.

Lela on Tue, 3rd May 2011 12:52 pm

Eish there’s everything wrong nje ngomakoti one tatoos. Ngathi ndiyabona my inlaws interceding tru out the wedding thinking unyana wabo is marrying a street mate or a satanist. I think it depends on how progressive ur inlaws are but id rather hide them if nginazo cz i know most inlaws wouldnt understand unless u are a president’s daughter.

Amo on Tue, 3rd May 2011 1:08 pm

I love that she painted her nails red! Not the usual french manicure brides seem to like. The dress, she must give it to me for my ”dream” wedding. Its to die for!!

MiniAyeye on Tue, 3rd May 2011 1:24 pm

@Sweetsoul, everything is WRONG ka makoti wa TATTOO!!!

MissAN on Tue, 3rd May 2011 1:34 pm

Hello… I asked on the Osama article about the wedding… I saw the pics on Sowetan newspaper and did not look that great,now that they clearer…I am sitting on the fence…Can I be racist,I think us black people can not pull off Top Billing weddings(even those shown on TB no matter how rich the couple is),the only Black weddings I have seen and went Oooh… are The Gen Cele,Khanyi Dlomo & Lebo M to his half-Portugese wife…*@Kewlgal make space under Khulubuse’s mkhaba*

@MiniAyeye..pot calling the kettle black…Remove that avatar!! *LOL*

@Nthoenhle kganthi have u not delivered?

Nthoentle on Tue, 3rd May 2011 2:47 pm

@MissAN-mara Top Billing doesn’t show you everything hey…kanti wena what do u want us(blacks) to do? Copy the white’s? Mara we r black mos, we won’t have the same taste as them.

No I haven’t, eish, kana 10 months is long hle, its a whole year. End of next month

MiniAyeye on Tue, 3rd May 2011 3:21 pm

LoL MissAN, okay wena tlosa mazaza a abuti oo on yo gravatar then ke tla … lol, iyo a zange wa ngi naka so

sefula on Tue, 3rd May 2011 3:22 pm

@MissAN we are different from whites. Khanyi’s wedding was thee wedding

GTI on Tue, 3rd May 2011 3:27 pm

Are on leave now kante Nthoentle_let me raise her/him for you, for just three months

Nthoentle on Tue, 3rd May 2011 3:30 pm

@GTI-i wish babe hey. I’m still slaving at work and school, even writing tomo,the 11 and 16 May. Then 13th June. I’m seeing flames shem

MissAN on Tue, 3rd May 2011 3:59 pm

@ Mini Ayeye I can never get used to it,it looks like a knock off of the bmw and mini logos,phela even those 1s that wordpress automatically puts *that lazy,lacking initiative and application challenged jc bloggers – i struggled as well* Lol are much better than that thing u have.

@Nthoentle and whoever is challenging me. Lanyela *I hardly swear but love this Sotho swear word*Lol Ok,guys I do get that itaste yabantu ayifani and all,I am not against traditional weddings mara mybe some of the decor I have seen on TB,extremely shiny suits,those chair organza coverings… And that funny with a white bride and groom. Mybe I should have simply said eh mina I want a wine estate wedding and I will have Caucasian TB taste on my day! Good Nthoempi and hope ur water dont break during an exam!

Peachy on Tue, 3rd May 2011 4:03 pm

Hey y’all, been a silent blogger for months now, had to chirp in.
@Nthoenhle and MissAN- Don’t think it’s about taste more than class sometimes yaz’. For starters,you just can’t have one of the main sponsors at your wedding be the guy that wears two watches.Secondly,I don’t care how much money you have your theme can’t be “Paris” and have the Eiffel tower on top of the wedding-cake, for a birthday party yes, wedding no-no!….But then, that’s just me!
Does anyone know who the wedding planner was?

MiniAyeye on Tue, 3rd May 2011 4:04 pm

MissAN get a LIFE tuuu, phumakum kaloku tshini! kanti vele vele ke eng bothata ba gago mama?its my shit so leave it alone,if u dont like it then surely thats yo problem and PLEASOOOO dont make yo problem mine wethu!yooo hope this is the last tym wa nkutlwa??? yerrrrr maan

Mapakisha on Tue, 3rd May 2011 4:06 pm

CAT FIGHT!!!

Qalo on Tue, 3rd May 2011 4:43 pm

FYI Missan, Nthoentle also had a top billing wedding and yes her dress way better than Catherines n Zumas daughter combined,GOL!
On the real girl, ur wedding ws stunning,I understand when u say they don’t show us everything.

MissAN on Tue, 3rd May 2011 4:52 pm

@ Mapakisha my claws r not out. I was just fooling around naye,ngiyazidlalela kuphela. I guess our sense of humour is like chalk and cheese.

@ MiniAyaye I was merely joking dear,and really it wont change the petrol price whether u change it or not.*sit on the rickshaw and asks for forgiveness*

@Peachy… Welcome,hope ur missile,weapon,S.W.O.T gear is stocked to the brim. Lana people will come down on u like a ton of bricks.

MissAN on Tue, 3rd May 2011 5:44 pm

@ Qalo. Khanyi’s is the one that comes to mind. Yeah,some were very nice mara u find that its someone who is a hot shot in some sector or sum important person’s child’s wedding and I might have liked the decor mara becoz d person is not in ur face,I may have 4gotten sum gr8 weddings. Iam sure @Nthoentle did have a beatiful wedding. I must start hanging around Kenny Kunene if I want a wine estate wedding.

@Nthoentle… Wait a min,u said u 10 months preg? is that normal? Phela this is like a Daily Sun material.

ThatoM on Tue, 3rd May 2011 10:04 pm

Lmao waits for Nthoentle’s answer

beyonce on Tue, 3rd May 2011 11:36 pm

Hayi this wedding has to be theeee most swaggless, low budget wedding ever. I think they shud hav cut the publicist fee & focused on a more dazzling entrance, urisho ?????? Siphi naa coz the wedding theme was Paris/Fresh nton nton. The dress is nje, infact the tatoo’s kill it for me iworse le yoAssegai on the shoulder(straat meisie tendencies) but ke shame its quiet obvious uDudu istyle yinto anganayo neshlobo sakhe uRoslyn Holland. The only thing i loved is her ring which i suspect the Husband chose !!! Hayi looo umtshato ngekhe normal peeps wit normal money hav done beta i think its a gud testament yoba money aint everything & cant buy u everything!!!!!

beyonce on Tue, 3rd May 2011 11:38 pm

kwaa @ they typo ‘Congratulations to Dudu and Sonwabo on their wedding, we wish them a happy and long marriage. She looked very happy on her big day” but ke ive always felt uLonwanbo ngu Mr Zuma apha …………kwaaa akhonto ingeyowori

BubblesGalore on Tue, 3rd May 2011 11:53 pm

The rings are stunning and that’s just about the only positive thing I can say on this wedding.
The theme was Paris mara what was Paris mo bathong except for the akward Eiffel Tower? I don’t even wanna say the rickshaw thing was original she might as well have foofie slided as her grand entrance.
The tatoo of umkhonto ke yona kills the dress nje, I just do not get it.
Then there are pics with an over abandace of hot dog rolls on the main table…it must have been starters
For people that supposedly spent R3mil on the after party very lil care went in to their actual wedding
Happy ke phofu to Mr and Mrs Zuma

Luyah on Tue, 3rd May 2011 11:58 pm

what a simple wedding, love it though!! the bride looks good, and i love the tatoos i must say and u can see that the wedding gown was made for the purpose of showing them off..
i sooo wish to see Kenny’s so called wife, why isnt he wearing a ring if he is reali married.. ay!!

Nthoentle on Wed, 4th May 2011 12:00 am

Kwa kwa kwa! @MissAN, no man. I am saying a full pregnancy is 10months hence u think I have been pregnant forever. Pregnancy takes forever vele

Lex on Wed, 4th May 2011 7:13 am

Nthoentle on Wed, 4th May 2011 10:29 am

@LuvTerry-Kgomotso (Odwa’s fiance) is my gal, doubt she will allow media at the traditional do but Top Billing will definitely be at the white wedding in November.

eve on Wed, 4th May 2011 11:19 am

there is absolutely nothing wrong with those tattoos. they dont look gangster.@Lela if having tattoos makes one a staatmate or satanist then the inlaws can go hang themself ngeChappies.

The dress is stunning!

LuvTerry on Wed, 4th May 2011 11:57 am

@Nthoentle

Kgomotso is pretty man, ok guess we will wait for november for the white wedding.
