Beauty entrepreneur and interior design lover Lungile Thabethe recently shared a heartfelt message as she celebrated her older sister Ayanda Thabethe’s wedding. Ayanda, a well-known media personality and model, married her longtime love, businessman Peter Matsimbe, on 29 June 2025, and Lungile couldn’t be happier for her big sister.
Taking to Instagram, Lungile posted stunning photos from the wedding day — including sweet sister moments, family portraits, and snaps of Ayanda in her breathtaking gown. But what truly touched her followers was the emotional message she wrote for her sister, praising her for her faith, patience, and strength.
“As your younger sister, I’ve always looked up to you – your strength, your grace, your unwavering faith,” Lungile wrote. “You’ve trusted God even in the waiting, holding on to His promises when things weren’t always clear. And now, seeing you step into a love that honors and cherishes you so deeply is nothing short of His faithfulness fulfilled.”
Lungile’s words celebrated not just the love Ayanda has found, but the spiritual journey it took to get there. She continued: “God is true to His word – He never forgets His promises. Even when the journey feels long, He is always working, aligning every detail in His perfect time. Your marriage is a beautiful reminder that what He speaks over our lives will come to pass. You’ve waited for a love that reflects His heart, and now you’re living in it.”
“You deserve every bit of this love, this peace, this new beginning. I’m so happy for you, sis. Here’s to God’s goodness, to answered prayers, and to a forever built on love and grace.”
The message struck a chord with many, as it reminded people that love, faith, and patience can lead to beautiful things.
Ayanda, who now goes by Ayanda Matsimbe on Instagram, shared moments from the wedding too. Dressed in a flowing white gown with a long train and veil, she looked like a true bride queen. Her husband Peter wore a stylish black and white tuxedo, and their two young sons wore matching suits. The wedding followed a classy all-black dress code for guests, adding to the elegant, magical feel of the day.
In her own emotional Instagram caption, Ayanda wrote: “In front of God and surrounded by love, we signed a promise that began long before pen met paper. Our signing ceremony – The beginning of our forever as a family. ‘I have found the one whom my soul loves.’ – Song of Songs 3:4. 29.06.2025.”
The celebration was full of love, joy, and prayers — a true testimony to Lungile’s words about God’s timing and grace. Fans and celebrities like Pearl Modiadie joined in congratulating the newlyweds. Pearl commented, “So dreamy! Congratulations beautiful, here’s to your forever. God bless your union.”
Lungile’s love for her sister shone through in every word — a reminder of how beautiful it is to witness someone you love finally get the happiness they deserve.
