“I had a fantastic experience working with Yemi. What I loved most about him was his diligence and attention to detail. It’s because of this that I felt like a Queen on my wedding day.”

Nana Ama’s couture wedding gown

For her wedding in Accra, Nana Ama wore a striking bespoke Kosibah couture bridal gown featuring a softly draped cowl neckline, delicately embellished shoulder straps and a beautifully sculpted, figure-hugging silhouette. The fitted gown blossomed into a dramatic trumpet skirt, with architectural folds and lavish three-dimensional floral textures creating a spectacular, romantic finish.
