Singer and businesswoman Akothee has returned to Kenya after travelling abroad for her wedding shopping, as she prepares for her big day in April.
Many people were surprised when Akothee revealed that she spent Sh624K on her wedding gown and Sh156K on her shoes.
She described her shoes as ideal for her wedding because they are comfortable enough to be worn all day without causing discomfort.
“The gown has cost me $4800 (Sh624K) while my bridal shoes have gone for $1200 (Sh156K) and you can put them on for the whole day. You guys will see,” Akothee explained.

Akothee has revealed that she wishes to be buried in her wedding gown, which would save her family time spent looking for burial clothes.
“I know people don’t love talking about death but I think I would have given my family an easy time. I would like to be buried in my gown and shoes,” Akothee added.
Akothee also stated that she has yet to purchase wedding rings because her fiancé, Schweizer ‘Omosh,’ has requested that she take care of the jewellery.
She went on to say that her husband dislikes seeing her waste money, which is why he gets upset when Akothee makes certain purchases. As an example, she stated that Omosh frequently pays hotel bills in advance, which astounds her.

When bloggers approached Akothee at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport upon her return, they inquired about rumours that she had rushed into wedding plans after only a few months of dating.
Akothee simply replied that she and her fiancé had been dating for eight months and were well acquainted. She also joked about how long people should date before getting married.
Akothee was also quick to point out that her fiancé does not want children outside of marriage, which is why they must first marry at a wedding.
