Biashara ni biashara. You all know that Gospel star Kambua Manundu has rented out her wedding dress for hire to any blushing bride who doesn't have money to buy the elegant gown but can afford to rent it.
The invite only event saw the media get locked out and kept out. But media ni nani? We still got photos of the wedding. Anyhow, Kambua said 'I Do' to pastor Jackson Mathu five years ago.
She has held on to the gown to date. Till she decided to make money out of the pristine white haute couture wedding gown.
She wrote, “My search for “the perfect dress” 5 years ago led my maid of honor and I, to a little antique store in St. Louis, MO. You know how “they” say, you just know? I just knew when I saw it, that this #maggiesottero Haute Couture Imperial wedding gown was the perfect one for me."
Now the gown and it's accessories can be hired for only Sh 35,000 yet it was bought for close to half a million bob.
According to the lady who hires it out, you get to have the gown for a total of 10 days. They also alter it to fit you in time for your wedding and they will dry clean it for you. All you have to do as a bride is to show up, pick it and drop it at the end of the 10-day hiring period.
Kambua doesn't care what you think about her life or the decisons she makes.
"I've been thinking of how people's opinions/expectations have held me back and in many ways paralyzed me from being everything I want to be. I've also thought about how freeing it's been for me to embrace who I am and walk in my confidence. No apologies. No excuses. I'm so much happier. Liberating as it is, sometimes it's so daunting, sticking to my guns and talking myself through the moments when I am tempted to sink back to the easy road...the path of least resistance. So here I am God. Use me. Stretch me. Grow me. Teach me. Lift me...in ways that only you can," She wrote on her instagram.
