A bride and a groom invited two friends to their wedding, they met each other and now they have been joined as husband and wife at their own celebration of love. That’s what happened as Uduak Abang and Tope Ojo met at a friend’s wedding and from then their relationship bloomed into a blissful union.
Tope proposed to Uduak on their way back from a vacation. They were running late and rushing to their boarding gate to catch their flight to Lagos. Then right there in the middle of one of the busiest airports in the world – Tope knelt down in the hustling and bustling Dubai airport. Uduak noticed a crowd staring at her, she turned around and saw her love on bended knee! He asked the golden question, She said YES with tears in her eyes amidst a chorus of cheers and clapping from fellow travellers.
On the 21st of April 2012, Uduak and Tope celebrated their traditional wedding in Abuja and then on the 28th of April 2012, it was all about the fairytale! Breathtaking, that’s how we describe the bride in her ruffled ballgown with pearl detailing accentuated by her tulle shrug and pearl accessories. The groom Tope was a handsome companion to his beautiful wife in his classic black tux. Uduak and Tope’s day was filled with love, joy and happiness perfected by God’s blessings. We totally agree with the bride when she tells us “Always make sure you hear from God before taking a bold step into marriage because He alone makes all things beautiful in His time.“
BN wishes Uduak and Tope a blessed life together as one!

Beautiful wedding. It looked very simple to me but really elegant and the bride looks very beautiful. I love the sequins spaghetti dress she wore.
Can someone help me with a colour scheme? I noticed that this traditional wedding was blue and fuchsia. Do you think this blue will work well with a red? Thanks.
blue works well with light colors. U can match blue with a lighter shade of red *winks*
Blue and Red works but my favorite Combo of all times is Turquoise Blue and Fuchsia Pink..
one word for this : AWESOME!

The last picture is a master piece. HML to the couple.
Soon the yorubas will be the most beautiful tribe in Nigeria. They are really marrying beautiful women from all over the globe.LOL.
lol
LOL. dont be starting something before the yoruba chicks unleash the….
I don’t know why bellanaija purposely doesn’t post comments when people are saying the truth!
Please, Nneka or whatever you call yourself, don’t start something here. So they’ll become the finest tribe because of inter-ethnic marriages? Ignorance is really bliss. Comments like that are really illogical.
Moving on, the wedding: AMAZING!
The bride and groom are a perfect match. Wishing them long life and prosperity.
This chick is so pretty even that has got to be criminal.
Love this wedding, evything is to perfection.
Really lovely. God bless their union. Love the ankara mix&match aso-ebi. First of its type I’ve seen being used as wedding aso-ebi.
I can’t help but chorus everyone else… this bride is too fine. Her skin is absolutely flawless. The groom is one lucky fella
Congrats.
So beautiful!!!!
‘EVEN THAT HAS GOT TO BE CRIMINAL’

WOW, this bride is STUNNING. The gromm is dark chocolate, tall and handsome just like how I like them. Love everything about Calabar. Her colors are so vibrant and too beautiful. The last pic is CLASSIC.
Chai, Yoruba guys don marry all the finebabes finish. It’s a good thing, intertribal marriages is the way to go. The bride is TOO fine, her dress is pretty. The groom looks dapper. I like their cake, it’s lovely. Her traditional outfit look beautiful on her. I pray they will forever look at each other with smiles like the last pic.
