B2C to headline Bride and Groom Expo

As the Bride and Groom Expo draws closer, music group B2C has said they are ready to give participants a melodic experience at the event.

“We are part of the headliners at the Expo. We are going to entertain our supporters and participants at the Expo with our best songs,” Delivad Julio aka Julius Kasagga, one of the B2C singers, said.

He said, for all those that are planning to make weddings and introductions, this is the best source of information on how they can spend less money on their bridal wear, cakes, and decorations among others.

“Most people usually spend a lot of money while planning for their wedding. This is a change for all of us to come and learn how we can spend less on our weddings but attain good results out of our small budget,” Kasagga said.

“We have ironed clothes and polished our shoes for the Expo. For those that will have missed the three days, the participants of the Expo will narrate to you what you missed.  Please don’t miss out, come in large numbers,” he added.

Bukedde TV presenter Dorah Namaala appealed to viewers of Bukedde TV, Urban TV, listeners of Bukedde FM, and readers of the New Vision and Bukedde newspapers among others to come and learn more about how they can prepare themselves for their weddings.

She appealed to the supporters of the B2C to come and support their concert in August.

“The last time we hosted the B2C at the Vision Group head offices was in 2018 when they had a concert and Bukedde under the Vision Group were their sponsors. Please come and support our musicians. Let’s promote the Ugandan brand,” Namaala said.

“By reading the Bukedde paper, watching Bukedde TV, or listening to Bukedde FM, one will stand a chance of winning a ticket to the show,” she added.
