It was yet another joyous celebration for Mr Taiwo Orenuga, the former Executive Secretary of Igbogbo/Bayeku Local Council Development Area (LCDA), and her beautiful wife on Saturday, December 8, 2019, as they gave out another daughter out in marriage.
The tripartite event, which featured Engagement ceremony, Hole Solemnization and Reception, took place on the same day and recorded impressive attendance as family members, guests, friends and well-wishers of the lucky couple turned out enmasse to honor them.
The memorable event took off with the Engagement ceremony between the families of Mr & Mrs Orenuga (the Bride’s parents) and Mr & Mrs Anthony Olakojo (the Groom’s parents) at the 11:30 Multipurpose Hall, Olu-Odo, Igbogbo.
After the engagement, the couple and their parents, guests and well-wishers moved to the St. Luke’s Anglican Church, Igbogbo, where the pretty bride, Miss Adetola Morenike Orenuga and her handsome hearthrob, Mr Olalekan Opeyemi Olakojo, were joined as husband and wife.
After the Church event, the wedding train moved back to the 11:30 Multipurpose Hall for the reception party.
It was indeed a beautiful spectacle to behold when the new couple were ushered into the hall as they danced to songs specially dedicated to them by Deejay to the admiration of the gathering who gave them a standing ovation.
The couple further demonstrated their deep love for each other when they took the dance floor to have their first dance as a couple after which they proceeded to the cake stand to cut their wedding cake.

“The couple should love each other and their parents should guide them aright in their journey into life”, Asiwaju Basorun advised.
