People said that their wedding's photography is a hallmark of beauty and elegance as messages of congratulations poured in for the couple.
In one of the snaps, the man struck a pose as if he were dancing as his wife is captured laughing at him.
Theirs reminds me of a brave dress style a Nigerian lady pulled off for her church wedding when she sewed an Ankara gown instead of using the traditional white ball or mermaid dress.
