The journey began on the 29th of November, 2024, at the prestigious Glass House in Romi, Kaduna.

Dressed in traditional attire mirrored their ancestry’s richness, the couple performed age-old rites, affirming their bond before family and elders.
Guests were treated to an array of special meals that celebrated the culinary treasures of Benue State, leaving a lingering taste of tradition on every palate.

The harmonious blend of the day’s colors—olive green, mustard yellow, ash, and red—added a touch of vibrancy and warmth, symbolizing the couple’s bright future.
The reception at the Top Galaxy Hotel’s Bouquet Hall was nothing short of spectacular. Stepping into the exquisitely decorated venue was akin to walking into a fairy tale. Chandeliers sparkled, flowers bloomed in rich hues, and the ambiance exuded sophistication.
