U.K based Businessman and CEO of Rowflex Properties, Olalekan Ajala recently celebrated his 50th birthday in an intimate yet glamorous black and white-themed bash at London’s iconic and prestigious hotel, The Dorchester Park Lane. The property mogul and father of 3 marked the occasion with his beautiful wife Yewande Ajala and his closest family and friends.

BellaNaija Living posted a video of the event, watch the video here and now we’re bringing you the exclusive photos from the fabulous party by Triple T Media. The monochrome theme was dominant everywhere, from the menus on the tables to what the well-dressed guests wore as well. While being serenaded with tunes from the saxophonist of Gary Parkes Music, guests were welcomed with a selection of aperitif and hors d’oeuvres. Soon after, they took their seats and the party began!
