Nigerian Wedding Reception Attire

"Halfway through the reception Jake and I changed into full traditional Nigerian native wear custom made in Lagos, Nigeria, while the groomsmen and bridesmaids were accented with Nigerian headwear (known as 'gele' for the women and 'fila' for the men)," says Moni. "The guys were given the filas early in the day and would not take them off, even before it was time for traditional dancing. It made for great pictures and in retrospect, given how popular they were, we would have gotten them for the entire wedding!"
