Wooo hooo Geminis do rock! LOL!!
Your nationality: Nigerian
Your tribe: Yoruba
Fiance's nationality: Australian
Fiance's tribe: N/A
Where are you getting married? London/Surrey, April '09
Are your having a traditional wedding? Most definitely!!
What are your trad colours? For the aso oke I’m wearing a coral buba and sky blue iro and gele and h2b will be wearing a white buba and sokoto and sky blue agbada. On the sky blue pieces there’ll be some embroidery in coral and gold and I’ll be wearing coral beads and gold jewellery. Then we’ll change into silver lace and wine gele/cap, or maybe the other way around…. Or silver lace and pink gele…. I haven’t decided yet lol.
What are your white wedding colours? My colours will be ivory, sage green,chocolate, pink and gold. Just a sprinkling of pink to add some girliness, I’m not really a girly girl but there’s something about weddings that draws it out of you! lol
What are you wearing (traditional and white wedding, dress, shoes, everything!) See above for trad gear. My dress is the Francine dress from Berketex brides. I have a special attachment to the store because my mum got her wedding dress from there as well in 1977! Awwwww
And my shoes are Jimy Choos! Hurrah!!
Here’s a link to the pic of my dress, cake and shoes http://www.photobox.co.uk/album/83203791
What are you doing with your hair? I have no idea!! I’m not a slicked back, not a strand of hair out of place kinda girl. I usually have dready braids and my hair is natural. So I have no idea what to do that’s elegant but still “me”…. Any suggestions here will be greatly appreciated!
What kind of bouquet will you have? A bouquet of closed ivory peonies! I heard they start budding in April which is when I’m getting married.
Love peonies so I’m really hoping I’ll be able get them!
How many bridesmaids? 7 eeeep!
What's your wedding budget? Its ever expanding, but right now we’re settling on 35K
Where are you getting married? (traditional, church and reception venues) Trad wedding will be at the Painshill park conservatory in Cobham Surrey, and the church is at Wimbledon with the reception at the RAC club, Pall Mall
How involved is your fiance in the wedding preparations? Pretty involved! He arranged the church and reception venues, gromsmen outfits, all the cars taking us to church and the reception, and red route master buses to transport guests from the church to the reception through the centre of London so they can see the sights etc. A lot of guests are coming in from overseas and for many it’ll be their first time in London
Where are you going on your honeymoon? Our fave place in the world, Paris!! After the stress of the wedding, we decided we wanted to go somewhere we knew well and could just take things easy and relax. Not a place where we'd spend the first half of the trip trying to get around and then finding the right, non-touristy restaurants to go to etc... Plus h2b travels a lot for business so he associated plane rides with work which is the last thing he wants lol. At the end of the day what we want from a honeymoon is relaxation and each other's company. I was a bit hmmm about the whole thing cuz Paris is just next door and hardly exotic but h2b said whatever we save on plane tickets I can shop with... Well that kinda sealed the deal for me heh heh
What kind of wedding cake you having? Cupcakes!!! YAY!! See link above for pics of what I want. I’ll have a bigish top tier which is what we’ll cut and then a “cascade” of cupcakes with lots of fresh flowers in and around the little cakes.
What favours are you giving your guests? Ki le ma ha??!! My Yoruba sucks hee hee.....
My maid of honour is responsible for the favours, it’s her wedding present to me which is so sweet of her. So I’ve let her have full reign on that one, I have no idea what she’s organising!
What's going to be unique about your wedding? I think the cakes! I’ll bet a few eyebrows will be raised but I’m kinda quirky and the whole traditional tiered cake is too serious for me. Plus I think by having a top tier I’ll be satisfying some people lol. Who cares I love cupcakes!! YAY!!
