Reception Time! Glam Decor
Beautiful Guests Arriving
The couple changed into Ubi’s traditional attire for their dancing entrance with their groomsmen, also in traditional, and bridesmaids in lilac and silver sequin dresses.
Then it was time for Lilian and Ubi to cut and feed each other the eight tier crystal and fondant cake! Ushbebe oversaw this cute part of the wedding.
The couple had their first dance, with best man and Triple MG artiste Iyanya‘s sweet serenade in the background.
Lilian changed into her third dress of the day, a long sleeve blue lace dress. The best man and maid of honor gave their speeches, then toasted to the newlyweds.
Soon after, guests sprayed Lilian and Ubi and artistes including 2face, Tekno and Banky W performed. Lilian also got sexy for her husband, as she shimmied while he sat in a chair.
Lilian changed into her fourth and final look of the night, a pink dress, while her guests mingled. KCee performed, then the newlyweds danced into the night with their friends.

Lilian and Ubi, i wish you guys a blissful union.
Beautiful people!

I love baby Olivia
I want to babysit her one weekend so Tuface and Ann can go on a date.
I will play hide and seek with her all evening. She is way too cute.
She kept tapping saying “Aunty, put microphone on daddys mouth” Auntyyyyyyy 🙂
Lilian is so pretty nd elegant!!…May the love you both share never end and may your home be filled with lots of love, happiness , peace and joy……….Congrats!!
Beautiful Bride. HML.
Beautiful!!! Stunning!!!
However, something just made me go cray… Did anyone realize Iyanya’s funny accent! loooooool
Wedding of the century. Hmm, did I see Ubi cry, the man is crazy in love over his wife, soo much joy he can’t hold it and Lilian likes him back. I wish them the very best, they are truly happy to have found each other. Can’t wait to see the babies
Awwwww…. Olivia Idibia be wanting that microphone!
Beautiful. But how come I didn’t see Biliki and Nurse Titi
May God bless their home………
Hope there won’t be too much debt left after the whole expenditure?????
Beautiful wedding!! Looks like they spent no expense. I see nothing wrong in wearing four or five dresses,its her day,she can do whatever she likes. Linda Ejiofor is too cute,i wanna bite her cheeks and Olivia Idibia too!
It looks like Lillian might be preggers…congrats to the new couple and hml!

Lovely Pictures…..
Big congrats to the couple and everything looked like a very classy affair and all BUT don’t know why or what it is but grooms turning to a silly puddle of tears at the altar just peeves me to no end lol like I told my hubby please don’t do it. Just resist the urge you can do it (yous a big boy etc). It just does not impress me. But then again that might just be me. As an aside – Tiwa does she go around with a bodyguard everywhere she goes these days? . Everyone looks great!
Congrats Ubi and Lilian!
This is one wedding i would have loved to crash. lovely couple, beautiful decorations, just perfect.
Beautiful pple!
Side note: Ubi kisses like a village man! Lol! And
Is it just me or Lilian has become very light skinned. Anyway, beautiful wedding and a happy marriage to the couple
Yo did y’all see how fine mike ezurionye looked. ???
Uncle Wellington!!! Love love love!!! DJ Spinall, Who’s that chic…..
Nice traditional bride……..goodies all covered up and decently dressed yet still looking amazing!
see iyanya forming phoneh. idiat!
Beautiful wedding photos. Classy and rich wedding.
And now a year later
In November 2016
Marriage has crashed miserably.
Lesson to all stop focusing on lavish weddings, focus on how to make the marriage work. Tools hope yall learn to be wise
