The Evolution of Nigerian Weddings: What nobody tells you with Becca & Tofa

Nigerian weddings have always been an event. But somewhere between the owambe of the 90s and the productions of today, something shifted — and not everyone is talking about it honestly. In this episode, Ada and Tola sit down with Becca and Tofa, who take us through the beautiful, the personal, and the unfiltered details of their own wedding experiences. From standing their ground on what they truly wanted against family expectations, to the fashion choices they prioritised, the fine details nobody talks about, and yes — one story about a guest who turned out to be something else entirely. They also get into how wedding planning has evolved, what has been lost, and what today's couples are doing differently. If you have ever planned a wedding, attended one, or thought about what yours would look like — this conversation will feel very familiar. 🎙 Follow Event Girls Pod so Episode 3 lands straight in your feed.
