What made the details even more sentimental was the singer's custom cufflinks, which had pictures of the couple's late son, Ifeanyi.

The lavish ceremony was captured by celebrity photographer Stanley Babb, who shared a look inside the star-studded reception, attended by top Nigerian public figures like billionaire Aliko Dangote and international musicians, including Kirk Franklin.
