"Their "regal romance" wedding began with nuptials at the grand National Cathedral, followed by a reception at the Fairmont, which was transformed with flowers and decor in shades of ivory, champagne, and gold-including wall-to-wall white carpeting brought in for the occasion. Guests entered the hotel ballroom through a hallway lined with life-size photos from the couple's engagement-portrait session-Jerry's favorite element of the day. Overhead at the reception, a cascading ceiling installation was Lotanna's favorite detail."
"Eighteen months later, Jerry's proposal became a family affair while the pair were vacationing with loved ones in Mexico. An escort wall displaying 280 personalized favors-handheld fans, a signature accessory of the couple-read our biggest fans. Once seated, guests were served a four-course dinner with Nigerian influences. In addition to celebrating with a welcome party, the newlyweds hosted loved ones the day after the wedding for an afternoon-tea bus tour of DC."

The wedding included a National Cathedral ceremony and a Fairmont reception transformed with ivory, champagne, and gold flowers and decor, including wall-to-wall white carpeting.

The celebration included a welcome party, a four-course dinner with Nigerian influences, and an afternoon-tea bus tour of DC the next day.
