The bride’s dress: In the bride’s words; “Searching for “The Dress” was a hectic journey. After visiting a lot of wedding boutiques and I was about to give up, I saw an Allure mixed satin and Swarovski beaded mermaid dress and I instantly knew this was it. The dress was classy, comfortable and easy to manoeuvre, which were the three things I was looking for in a dress.

The second dress was made by April by Kunbi; Fatou described the dress as “sexy and classy” and she looked like a million dollars in it.
