Akan culture is a cynosure that has over the years attracted people from all over the world and this wedding was no different as drumming, singing and traditional dance routines characterised the event.

The couple first dazzled the audience in full royal regalia to signify their blue blood status which was designed by @rubeadzgh.

Bride, Loretta wore a blush kente corset gown designed and made by her best friend, Ghanaian designer, Quophi Akotuah which incorporated crystallised beads and a kente train. For the groom, he was decked in an embroidered agbada in very soft colours to match his queen.

The bridal party also didn’t hold back with the larger-than-life brocade dresses and classy men’s kaftan. In fact it was like a mini-style party.

Scroll down to see love, traditonal and fashion come together in the union of #MELORIE2021.
