Adama Indimi & Malik Ado-Ibrahim’s Rich Traditional Wedding
As it is with Northern Weddings, this was a rich fusion of culture, colour, and beauty. We certainly cannot forget in a hurry, how the 2-day celebration in Maiduguri left us in awe. From the colourful blend of the Kanuri, Chadian and Ebira culture, to Adama‘s stunning bridal looks. This is a memory we don’t mind reliving all over again!

Big Brother Naija’s Khafi & Gedoni’s Civil Wedding
What better way to end the year 2020. We found out that BBNaija 2019 couple, Khafi and Gedoni tied the knot legally in a very quiet civil ceremony in September at the Ikoyi Marriage Registry. In her words, “It’s simple when it’s right”. We didn’t see anything stopping us so we went for it. My brother’s death also made us realize that life truly isn’t promised so we didn’t want to wait. We have always known we wanted to spend forever together so we just kept on thinking, why delay forever from starting?”. We agree 100% and look forward to the big celebration soon.

Samuel Ajibola (Spiff) & Sandra Adanna’s Wedding
Sandra Adanna and Nollywood actor, Samuel Ajibola, popularly known as Spiff had the bells ringing a few weekends ago. They officially exchanged their vows and it was such a memorable for them. Of course, Nollywood showed up to support their very own. The fun part is we also got their love story and now is a good time to enjoy how they went from strangers on the same flight to lovers.

Zimbabwean actress and TV personality, Vimbai Mutinhiri and her longtime boyfriend, Dru Ekpenyong, had their beautiful court wedding in Calabar in May of this year. It was such a beautiful day full of laughter, love, and joy. The couple legally tied the knot with a few people in attendance, practised social distancing while a number of their friends and family watched on Zoom. Another proof that a pandemic has got nothing on love.
