South African rapper AKA announced in February on social media that he asked his then girlfriend and now fiancé, Nelli Tembe, to marry him and she said yes.

The couple have taken a step forward in their union, as the lobola negotiations took place this weekend at Nelli’s home. The rapper posted pictures of himself, his fiancé and her family members.

The picture was captioned with a cow emoji as well as a heart emoji, which gave his fans the assumption he had just settled the lobola negotiations with his bride-to-be’s family.

The artist was dressed in a navy blue suit and formal brown shoes, matching his soon-to-be bride, who wore a brown tribal print dress with dark brown heels.

AKA later posted a tweet in which he asked his fans to comment on who they’d pick to broadcast the wedding, suggesting he might be interested in having his wedding televised.

Here are some pictures from the joyous occasion
