She must have spent a fortune, wasted days and hours for fitting and amendments, but the expert jury we put together to access the wedding dress has given velvety voiced Tiwa Savage a hard knock!
We are told that the ball, strapless gown could have been perfect if Tiwa Savage was a fuller figure woman but for her shape it was off the mark. In fact, one of the experts said jocularly that except she had become pregnant over night; it was not appropriate. “The gown looked oversized at first glance and that is not a good sign at all”.
“Tiwa is svelte, with an hour-glass shape to die for, did you notice that with the dress? If you didn’t then that dress did not pass the first test of fitting. Maybe the gown minus the frills would have worked better” one of our experts noted.
But Tiwa got excellent marks for her make-up which was described as flawless. Her make make-up handled by Joyce Jacobs, took care to work around her cheek bones and was perfect. Same high marks went for her hair done by Debola Falana. And her veil too was given thumps up.
Trust the bride to be so carefully scrutinized, the groom who wore suit crafted by Nigeria’s own Mai Atafo was adjudged picture perfect-same with his best man, Banky W. His outfit was also Mai Atafo inspired.
The wedding reception ceremony which was the Armani Hotel which is located on the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world was exquisite. It is no surprise that the décor, the planning and the execution was superb, that is because Elohor Aisien’s Prive Event was in charge.
We gathered that the celebration was in three parts. The first part was the wedding proper where the couple were formally joined as one flesh and one blood. This was held in an open plan area that was decorated slightly and guests were seated church-style facing the couple. Thereafter, the reception was held at the Armani Hotel. The after wedding party was also held at the hotel and it rolled till the wee hours of this morning.
