Polokwane blogger marries her man

Excitement prevailed as a rendition of Ave Maria reverberated through the interior of the majestic Roman Catholic Cathedral in the heart of Polokwane at noon on Freedom Day when former Premier’s spokesperson and blogger Mashadi Mathosa walked down the aisle to wed Malesela Mangale.
Friends and family filled the pews of the Sacred Heart Cathedral for a nuptial mass and the reading of a message from the Vatican during the service conducted by five priests last Friday.
The occasion preceded a celebration in a packed hall at a lodge outside town, for a short formal programme of blessings and toasts before guests partied the night away.
The bridal couple went on to celebrate with Mangale’s family at a venue in town the day after.
