If you’re on Instagram, then you know Wellington and Etomi’s wedding was nothing short of a movie with the #BAAD2017 attached to it.  The newlyweds held two ceremonies – the traditional was in Lagos, Nigeria and the “white” wedding was held in South Africa. The wedding trended for some many reasons; the unconventional love affair of Etomi and Wellington which began on social media which proves sometimes it’s a good idea to slide in those dm’s, the attire of the entire wedding party, the hashtag, the celebs who performed, and the jet-setting of the bride and groom.
