An Intimate Wedding During Lockdown

Looking forward to life after lockdown, Ibrahim and Oluwatobi decided to create a wedding weekend experience unlike any other, spent with their closest loved ones on Valentine's day. And with the help of IContact Events team, that’s precisely what they did. With the bride's family house elegant beauty as the perfect backdrop and–more importantly–great food as the highlight, the couple brought an intimate wedding filled with stunning details and thoughtful touches to life.

On top of the incredible culinary experience, they dined friends and family in an intimate and well-thought-out detailed event combined with the picturesque landscape that truly elevated and brought this wedding together.

How their intimate wedding came to be

At the beginning of our wedding planning process, Ibrahim and Oluwatobi had a mood board full of ideas with exactly how they wanted it to look and how they would actually come to life. The overall vibe we hoped for was an enchanted dreamland full of intentional details true to our love story. Our main focus was to create an intimate and intentional experience for our guests. We knew that the venue would be critical in achieving that goal. It all came together when we visited with the help of our wedding decorator, Drapes and Events. The property was stunning and was perfect for a wedding get-together unlike any of our guests have ever experienced. The landscape’s natural beauty influenced everything from florals to the stationery. We trusted the process and leaned into the feeling we had, and we are happy everything worked out how we wanted our guests to experience it.
