Watch: Nollywood actor Stan Nze and wife, Blessing, renew wedding vows after five years in romantic waterfront ceremony

The waterfront was quiet except for the violins. Stan Nze stood in front of his wife, Blessing, and promised her again: “It’s been five years of sweetness, joy, peace, and harmony. It’s been five years of your endless love to me. I vow to you again, bone of my bone, flesh of my flesh. I will be by your side in sickness and health.”

The couple renewed their wedding vows on the fifth anniversary of their marriage in an intimate open-air ceremony. Family and loved ones watched as the two exchanged vows a second time, dressed in full wedding attire. It was a recreation of their 2021 wedding day, with violinists playing as they reaffirmed their relationship.

Blessing’s vow matched his. “I never want to become so familiar with you that I stop discovering and honouring you. You are my husband, my friend, my home, and one of the greatest evidences of God’s kindness to me. I’ve always loved you. I love you even more now, and I will keep choosing you all the days of my life.”

The ceremony came after a year in which Blessing has spoken openly about what holds the marriage together. In a 2025 interview, she described Stan as her friend first, saying their friendship is one of the strongest parts of their relationship. She also said they support each other professionally. Stan’s knowledge of the film industry helps him guide her work, and she understands the demands of his acting career.

The couple started dating in 2017 and married in September 2021. Their son was present for the vow renewal, watching his parents choose each other again.

It has not been a straight line to this point. Stan has previously said that a trip to Dubai in 2020 ended in a major disagreement that made both of them question whether the relationship would survive. They took time to reflect on themselves and the relationship, then came back stronger.

Friendship, faith, and mutual support are the terms the couple keeps returning to when they describe their marriage. Blessing has said those three elements remain at the center of their life together. The vow renewal was another expression of that, a public restatement of the promises they made in 2021.

The ceremony itself was small by design. Waterfront settings and a small guest list of family and close friends kept the focus on the couple. The open-air arrangement let the violins carry across the space as they exchanged vows.

Stan’s reflection on their five years together was specific about what the time has meant to him. He spoke of sweetness, joy, peace, and harmony, and promised to remain by her side through life’s different seasons. His vow referenced the biblical language of bone of my bone, flesh of my flesh, grounding their renewal in the same terms as their original wedding.

Blessing’s vow acknowledged the risk of long familiarity. She promised not to stop discovering and honouring him, even as their years together grow. Her phrasing placed their marriage within her faith, calling Stan one of the greatest evidences of God’s kindness to her.

The couple’s public story has included both the strength of their partnership and its hard moments. The Dubai disagreement in 2020 was a test that nearly ended things. Their decision to step back, reflect, and return to each other became part of how they describe their foundation.

Five years after their first “I do,” the couple repeated the act in front of their son. The violins played. The vows were said again. Stan and Blessing Nze left the waterfront as they had entered it five years earlier: together, having chosen each other once more.
