This tasteful production replicated a formal wedding ceremony incorporating our favourite wedding traditions like the toast, the first dance and the toss of the wedding bouquet.
Fifteen brides and their bridal party walked the runway serenaded by our special guest performers – Chidinma performed first serenading the crowd with etta james' "At last" and her single Obimo, next was PRAIZ with his single and john legends everybody, then super WAJE with her colabo with MI "one naira and one minute then man of the night BEZ then our sweetheart OBIWON thrilled the audience with his hit Obimo' and a host of others.
Weddings By Mai will partner with BellaNaija, The Wedding Company, Newton & David, Cakes by Tosan, The Incubator and make-up maven, Banke Meshida-Lawal.
As a token of appreciation, Atafo gave away a N300, 000 wedding dress to the lucky lady who caught the wedding bouquet.
