Tim Tebow and Miss Universe 2017, Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters marry in South African wedding
Fox News ^ | 01/20/2020 | Jessica Napoli

Tim Tebow and Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters are officially husband and wife.

The couple tied the knot at the La Paris Estate in Cape Town, South Africa on Monday night, according to People magazine. The ceremony was about 30 minutes long, during which the former NFL quarterback and the Miss Universe 2017 winner read their own vows in front of over 250 guests.

“I want the vows to be perfect,” Tebow told People. “I’m leaving in the traditional things like ’till death do us part,’ but I’m also adding some of my own things to it.”

Nel-Peters wore a custom gown from David’s Bridal while Tebow wore a tuxedo by Antar Levar. The ceremony and reception featured a mix of traditions from America and South Africa, including regional food such as steak, pasta, mussels, and assorted cheeses.

“We’re both very traditional,” Nel-Peters admitted. “We wanted to look back at the wedding and see that it was intimate, elegant, and traditional. We definitely wanted it to be something that we could look back on and know that nothing was dated. We want to remember this day for the rest of our lives."

Tebow revealed he was most looking forward to three moments in particular -- “The first moment I see her in her wedding dress, the first kiss, and the first dance together as man and wife. It’s such a special night.”

He added, “I’ve been waiting my entire life for someone special, who I can spend the rest of my life with. I was waiting for the right person to come along. And now I’m marrying Demi. I can’t wait to see what our future holds. All of my dreams have come true. It was 100 percent worth the wait.”

There are still some parts of South Africa that are very nice, I know of several couples who went on their honeymoons there, and they all say they loved it.

I've family that lived and grew up in Rhodesia....and some moved to South Africa.

Most if not all say..never move back to Rhodesia...where they owned farms..but might to S.A.

Now many of them say they are moving on...from there also.

They seem to know the ultimate outcome...They have seen it once...and don't want to risk it a second time..

And I agree with them..........

Visiting there is one thing, living there is another.

“Guess he’s getting laid for the first time in his mid 30’s. Unless he lied..”

Not my business and don’t care. Good luck to him.

Some people are not able to discern the Holy and spiritual character and integrity of those who carry the Lord Jesus Christ in their hearts, and so they say nasty, untoward things about them. Often their words say a lot more about their own character than they say about the character of those whom they are making comments about.

Prince William proposed to Kate in Kenya and honeymooned in Seychelles. Prince Harry courted Meghan in Botswana. So Africa as a whole has romantic significance for couples. ❤️🦋

I give them 5 years. If they have a kid, then 10.

Hopefully, she will fill him in on the near genocide of white farmers in SA. And Tebow will have the courage to speak out on their behalf.

Your comment was crass, disgusting, and totally uncalled for.

Do you believe that there is no such thing as a faithful Christian that lives in the light of the Lord’s perfect way?

I rebuke you and your comment . . . in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
