A Princess And Her Prince Charming: Ini Dima-Okojie and Abasi Ene-Obong Tie The Knot
To tell the best fairytale —based on the most celebrated ones— you first need a princess and a prince. Both sporting different backgrounds. They meet and both their stars collide and together, they create one big beaming star. Well, cue Ini Dima-Okojie and Abasi Ene-Obong. One is an Edo-born princess in her father’s eyes and a superstar in the role of being a princess. While the latter, is a dashing Efik-born prince (CEO) of his genomics world, 54 Gene. And one on the 28th of May 2022, both stars gracefully collided and its news was all every lip in the land could speak of.
Adorned a spectacle of a wedding dress from Mazel Studio, the bride said the two magical words “I do” to her dazzling prince charming donned in a bespoke Mai Atafo official suit. Friends, family and well-wishers buzzed with joy and happiness as they all watched the romantic and enchanting outdoor white wedding ceremony unravel at the beautifully embellished outdoor venue in Oniru Lagos. There were no dry eyes as the pair traded sweet vows and rings. This fairytale wedding was capped with a glamorously entertaining reception and afterparty which saw the likes of Adesua Etomi-Wellington, Kate Henshaw, Ebuka Obi-Uchendu, Toke Makinwa, Waje, Omawumi, Lily Afe, Noble Igwe all in attendance.
What is a perfect fairytale without a special dance? The couple danced the night away in each other’s arms under gentle sparkling lights while surrounded by fog and a swarm of colourful flowers and pampas.
