Forever a Fairytale: Bukki Adewumi & Sheun David-Onamusi Wed
Posted on Friday, February 1st, 2013 at 10:00 AMBy BellaNaija Weddings
It’s the first day of the month of love – February 2013 and the wedding we have for you on BN Weddings today is breathtaking! Bukki Adewumi & Sheun David-Onamusi‘s wedding was a fairytale whisked into reality. When we found out the bride’s company BDO Dreams planned, conceptualized and designed she and her beau’s dream day, we know it was a true labour of love!
We asked the bride Bukki to share tips with brides and grooms out there and here’s what she said – “Enjoy every bit of the process of planning the wedding together and ladies please do not exclude your man! Remember as you plan your wedding that it is more crucial that you spend quality time planning and investing in the future of your marriage because that is the real deal. Jesus Christ is the foundation of successful marriages!“
Great advice. Get set to experience the beauty of Bukki & Sheun’s day!
Bukki & Sheun – Always & Forever
Bukki & Sheun met at a friend’s birthday party in London. From there, the couple’s friendship grew into a loving relationship. When it was time to take things to the next level, Sheun proposed in style…
The Proposal
by Bukki
We went for a romantic dinner at Britain’s top chef’s restaurant in London. After dinner we took a walk as it was a beautiful summer evening. On getting home, we got on the internet surfing the web and all of a sudden, Sheun copied and pasted a link and up came a website dedicated to me!
The website had a picture story of how we met and our story so far, it even had the picture I had on my BlackBerry messenger from the first time we started chatting on BBM. He also had a poem he had written and dedicated to me titled “Always & Forever“.
I read the poem out loud and at this time I began to cry!
Then we got to a link that said ‘click for an important message‘.
As I clicked, a message popped up that read “can we change our status from *if we get married* to *when we get married baby*?”
Sheun immediately goes on one knee and brings out a beautiful princess cut diamond ring and like they say, the rest is for the history books!
***
As guests dressed in their lovely sunshine yellow aso ebi arrived at Bukki Adewumi & Sheun David-Onamusi‘s wedding ceremony, they just knew they were set to experience a wonderful day filled with love, laughter and festivity. The loud and majestic sound of a trumpet filled the room as it heralded the arrival of the beautiful bride alongside her father. Bukki walked down the aisle in her ivory halter neck ballgown. With lace, beads and crystals patterned all over the bodice and neckline, this was a one-of-a-kind dress for a fairytale bride. The veil with lace trimmings and crystals matched the dress perfectly while her marcel wave bridal updo by Touch of Glamour and her unique fan yellow rose bouquet by BDO infused the glamorous Victorian influence. The groom maintained the classic style with his grey morning suit paired with a silver cravat and a special silver pocket watch with a photo of him and his bride in it!
After their blessed church ceremony, Bukki and Sheun’s party kicked off at the reception. There was gasps of delight as family, friends and guests entered the banquet hall of the Oriental Hotel which had been totally transformed into a Victorian fairytale setting. Large white flower arrangements decorated the space which was also enhanced by luxe white fabric draped all around. White and silver Chiavari chairs and candelabras were other elements that worked in sync to create the dreamy ambience. It was all about Bukki and Sheun as they shared their special day with their loved ones. The dance-off between the ladies and the gentlemen was so much fun while the special video compilation by the groom featuring well-wishes from the couple’s dear friends was a pleasant surprise for the bride. Many kisses, dances and joyful smiles later, it was time to say goodnight after a wonderful day!
BN wishes Bukki and Sheun a very blessed, joyful and favour-filled life together as one.

Monica, thot I was the only one, I was wailing oh!!!! Joyous wailing, such a beautiful wedding, their love for each other is so obvious, very humble, thotful and romantic groom, a rarity these days. May God bless and guide their union. I am 35 years, no boyfriend, haven’t been in love for the past 10 years, I am beginning to loose hope, seeing such love assures me that it still exists, even if I am not destined to have it, I will still share in the joy of those who are lucky to have it. May Joy, Peace and blessings be their potion in this marriage in jesus name.
Please dont despair…Just let your singlehood be a time of utmost service to God,I am convinced you have your Mr Right. right besyd u already.
Don’t worry. You desire it ,so you shall have it. Your own is coming…very soon.
I prophesy into your life that you will find your lasting joy this yr. Your own man that God has assigned to you will find you this month. Yow will not lose hope but be happy in love all your days on earth in the mighty name of Jesus. God bless you Tee

This is one of the best weddings I’ve seen. Beautiful!!
Fun!Fun!!Fun!!!
I LOVE PARENTS THAT CAN DANCE O! LOVELY WEDDING

i LOVE how fun this groom was. normally the grooms we see are too busy boning behind dark sunglasses to enjoy themselves. not THIS groom! He was so happy! and the parents could daaaaaaaaaaaaance!
In one of the pictures it looked as if the bride wanted to cry, Eeeyah, I feel like crying with you, tears of joy
now iv found something close 2 what i want, Happy married life and loads of God’s blessings on u both
NICE;
THEY ARE OBVIOUSLY IN LOVE, BEAUTIFUL
I use to attend d same church with d bride when i was younger(odiajaye),they have always had great taste.wish you guys HML.
Tears of laughter rolling down my cheeks! This is exquisite!!! My Prince charming hurry joor, lol
This might not be the most high profile wedding on BN. But it is my favourite because THEY ALL LOOK SO HAPPY! Esp the couple and their parents. Amazing. Ti wa a de o. Amin
My dear and thats all that matters. I love looking at the high profile weddings as they make for great eye candy but i have no regrets about our very modest wedding. Everything went wrong…the photographer my hubby hired was wack! infact my husband is still mad at himself 4 yrs after lol. The decorator forgot the table linens…infact i just gave up and wanted the whole thing to be over but one thing that mattered was that my husband and i were finally together (we were long distant couples most of the time). Today we are so happy, we look at our wedding photos and remember all the chaos and imperfections but laugh about it. At the end of the day it’s the marriage that matters and not the wedding. If you can afford a glamorous wedding then go for it, if not don’t beat yourself up about it. Just make sure you got the right partner

On Point!
I feel you on this. My wedding is coming up in march, and because my parents are providing majority of the funds – I’m Yoruba and the only girl child- they have taken over the wedding from me. Most of the things I told myself and planned that I didn’t want at my wedding- bridal train, carnival crowd e.t..c- are already taking shape. I don vex tire. Our only joy is that we’re finally going to be joined to live our love finally, after much opposition- he’s from akwa ibom- and also because we did the long distance thingy. I wish the couple the very best of God in their marriage.
dey look so hapie togeda…..i tap into it!!!!
Absolutely Beautiful Wedding!! Just the right amount of splendor…not over the top. The reception looks like it was strictly by invitation (which i love!!), no unnecessary crowd, and maximum fun. Fab! Even though i have given up on finding true love and settling down (my mum must not find out cos she’ll just faint! i’m 32 this year and i honestly don’t see it happening soon), i celebrate couples who have found true love and hopefully married their best friends. God bless your union and increase you on all sides, AMEN!
Tee you are not alone ooooooo
Loved the sight of the praying men….. Congrats
i 2o lved.The right foundation is definitely stnding sur and its reflcting even in the occasion
Money good
Beautiful!!
I was @ d engt and believe me,it was da bomb.Didn’t get an invite for d white wedding.I wish dem a happy married life and God’s blessings.
Wow, the bride is a natural beauty. The groom is not bad either. True love is too sweet, nothing compares. This couple will have some good looking children. Ok, everything about this was perfect. I love how all the guests look beautiful, classy and simple. I’m just tired of seeing handsome men, and I can’t even get to them. The closest I can get is, look at these wedding pictures on Bella Naija. Maybe, I should attend more weddings. Nigerian weddings here in California are becoming more like “party” than two people who are in love celebrating their day.
Everytime I look at wedding pix on BN, I wonder if am ever gonna see my miss right. Seems miss right died long ago #crying# God please send me my true wify. Amen
Simply Amazing!! And I spotted my lil baby der too..wish u all the best #BLESS
Lovely pictures. Everything was moderate. Glory of God seen in it all. Congratulations.
@Tee please don’t despair.Your Prince charming is right at the door.Actually scrolling through some wedding pics of my childhood friends on FB and I scrolling through this reassures me that God will bring my day sooner than I think.HML dear.May God keep your home
Thanks oh my dear!!!! It gets depressing some times but all we can do it to trust and hope in God for our testimony.
@A.E.I we are in the same boat o.Its so scary too lol
They all look beautiful
So beautiful… God is love!!!!!
Nigerians definitely do it better! HML to Mr. And Mrs.
Lovely Wedding–HML guys! London seems to be the love zone; My prince charming am in London, stop searching and find me hastily! All single sisters, The right guy is on the way; this wedding just gives me that glimmer of hope
Congrats darling
beautiful couple, as much as i dont like yellow this combo turned out nice and yesssss the couple can dance. May God bless your union and make ur family a happy one. tiwa naa a de o.
Am so happy for the couple. The bride is beautiful! Happy married life.
I love the fact that the groomsmen and the groom prayed before the wedding. The love and affection between the couple is very obvious, like it should be.
absolutely a stunner- the bride. very beautiful wedding. the cake is breath-taking and the bride’s father looks like a very fun-loving, no-hiding-my-joy father. Unlike most fathers of brides who are so stern-faced and serious looking as if they are not happy to give their daughters away. I think it was a really wonderful wedding, if the pictures are anything to go by
