BellaNaija at 20: Nigerian Weddings That Kept Love Alive During the Pandemic

As BellaNaija marks 20 years, it looks back at wedding celebrations that brought hope during the uncertainty of 2020. Even with restrictions and changed plans, couples found meaningful ways to celebrate their love. Yinka and Damilola held a rustic garden-themed ceremony with only 30 guests. Their intimate celebration showed that a memorable wedding does not always need a large crowd. Atinuke and Gbenga also adapted after their planned May 1 wedding at an 800-capacity Lagos venue was disrupted. Their story is one of several reminders that love and family celebrations continued despite the pandemic.
