Here’s how Zainab and Ibuanu’s special day went:

Zainab and Ibuanu curated a three-day Moroccan-themed celebration of love for their guests at an exclusive villa in Marrakech, the same venue where Idris Elba and Sabrina Dhowre tied the knot in 2019. Despite the initial concerns sparked by the news of an earthquake hitting headlines a month before their highly anticipated ceremony, the couple persevered. Months of meticulous planning by La Jet Fête, assured them of their wedding location’s safety, providing reassurance to their guests flying in from around the world. The festivities commenced with a Moroccan desert-themed dinner party, treating guests to local delicacies and unique cultural entertainment that captivated everyone throughout the night.
