Vahidin Prelic and Bojana Radic Wed: First Dance Videos
Videos of the first dance and the wedding cake have appeared on social media, and the groom took the microphone and sang at the celebration.
Bojana Radic, originally from Banja Luka, has married actor Vahidin Prelic. Photos and videos from the wedding appeared on social media today, October 24, and the date of the ceremony has not been announced. Prelic is 52, and his wife is 23 years younger.
What is known about the wedding of Vahidin Prelic and Bojana Radic?
The celebration was held at a wedding venue near Laktasi, according to Srpskainfo. The other two outlets do not name the location.
For their first dance the couple chose the song “My Last and First Love.” Telegraf reports that it was performed live by singer Ema Djuric, while Srpskainfo mentions Tereza Kesovija in connection with the song, since she is the artist it is known for. The footage also shows the moment the two blew out the candles on the wedding cake together.
During the celebration the groom picked up the microphone and sang, Srpskainfo reports.
Ahead of the wedding they also skipped the old superstition that the groom must not see the wedding dress before the ceremony. Bojana earlier posted a video from a bridal salon, and Vahidin helped her choose. Shortly before the wedding she wrote on social media:
“Is there anyone out there who got married after her husband saw her in the wedding dress before the ceremony, and nothing bad happened? I don’t know how to choose a wedding dress and I don’t know what I want, but I absolutely know I want to ask my future husband for his opinion.”
What did Prelic and Radic say earlier about the age difference?
Their relationship drew attention from the start because of their ages. Prelic is a year older than Bojana’s father and three years older than her mother, as he has said himself.
“I’m older. A year than her father, three than her mom,” the actor said, and Bojana said at the time: “I can completely understand that people find it strange that he is the same age as my parents.”
Telegraf also quotes her from an earlier interview, in which she mentions that her family objected because of religion:
“My father can’t understand how I feel. You wouldn’t believe it, but it turns out the bigger problem is that he doesn’t eat pork and that he is Muslim.”
The couple also spoke about their relationship on the podcast “Oslobodjenje.” Bojana described what their first meeting was like: “Let’s not lie to ourselves, it all starts with the first look.” Prelic added that he told her something different back then:
“If your dad is my age, I really can’t do this, this really makes no sense.”
According to Srpskainfo, they agreed at that point only to stay in touch and not deepen things, but their story soon “made sense.” Judging by the footage from the celebration, it now has a wedding too.
