Nigerian gospel artist Steve Crown has officially begun a new chapter with his partner, Ruth Thomas, in a beautiful wedding ceremony that melted hearts everywhere.
The event, held on Saturday in Abuja, quickly went viral after a touching video showed Ruth kneeling before Steve to say her vows — a moment that stirred a wave of emotions across social media.
In a clip shared by gospel artists Joe Praize and Neon Adejo, Ruth, radiant in a flowing white gown, made her heartfelt promises. With a voice filled with emotion, she pledged to be Steve’s peace, his unwavering supporter, and his biggest encourager. She spoke of a love discovered and a bond she vowed to treasure forever.
Her act of kneeling sparked plenty of conversation online. While some praised the humility and depth of love on display, others debated the gesture. Still, most reactions celebrated the pure affection and mutual respect shown by the couple.

After the ceremony, Steve took a moment to thank God for blessing him with a woman after His own heart.
This beautiful celebration followed their traditional wedding on April 18. During that earlier ceremony, Ruth spoke openly about her deep admiration for Steve, calling him “the love of my life” and “the one who completes me.” She described him as her motivator, cheerleader, and constant source of joy.
Steve, known for the hit song “You Are Great,” had previously announced his engagement on March 23. In a touching video, he was seen placing a crown on Ruth’s head — a symbolic start to their journey together. “Officially off the market! Two hearts fused by God… A walk to forever and the beginning of my best days,” he captioned the post.

Their love story has drawn warm congratulations from fellow gospel stars including Judikay, Moses Bliss, Okopi Peterson, Joe Praize, Kaestrings, and Eben.
Steve and Ruth’s beautiful union comes shortly after another high-profile wedding that had everyone talking — the celebration between influencer Priscilla Ojo and Tanzanian singer Juma Jux.
