The Photoshoot Theme

Almost all of us has watched the popular movie Coming To America. A story packed with romance, royalty and love for the African audience. It’s only befitting to have a real wedding recreation; reminding us that true love does exist.

On the outfit, the bride states:

Outfit: @bimmms24 brought this magic to life using this beautiful Alari from Ondo. I wanted an exquisite contrast, so we went for this gorgeous bronze and lace... against my skin was just too fire!!! The design was sketched by my amazing stylist

 The Decorations

More than before, a lot more couples (and even more celebrity couples) are bringing back to life, the beauty and diversity of the Nigerian culture. This reflects in everything; from the outfits to the decorations, you'd always find a mass of culture.

One of our favourite decors yet, we call it a fiery mystical and surreal ambience. Europen chandeliers are replaced with African basket chandeliers with the ever-present touch of nature. It's a wonderful view of luscious greenery, representing fruitfulness, nature, freshness, and all that is good.
