10 photos from the ‘All white everything’ thanksgiving ceremony of the Ooni of Ife & his new Olori

When we brought you first photos from the royal wedding of the Ooni of Ife hours ago, we promised to keep you updated with official photos from not only the ceremony but also from the ,marriage thanksgiving which held on Sunday noon.
If you noticed from the pictures of the traditional wedding festivities which went down in Benin, Edo state…one very important person was missing…the Ooni himself. Many were left wondering why he didn’t attend his own wedding and we have answers.

Oba Ogunwusi did not attend the wedding because according to tradition a king does not a seek a wife. A wife is taken to him. #Boss
And guess what Wuraola Zynab Otiti’s bride price was? N25…ONLY!

Our wedding vendor, Ist Xpression Visuals captured the moments.
