In a move that underscores the exclusivity of their highly anticipated white-themed wedding, Nigerian superstar Davido and his wife Chioma have prohibited guests from wearing white or cream to their ceremony.
A leaked image of the couple’s invitation, reportedly surfacing online, clearly states the dress code restriction: no white or cream attire allowed.
The directive is part of the couple’s carefully curated wedding guidelines, aimed at ensuring guests complement, rather than clash with, the couple’s aesthetic.
The event — being billed as a lavish white wedding — is already the talk of social media, with fans reacting strongly to the dress code.
Several entertainment outlets corroborate the update, highlighting that the instruction has sparked mixed sentiments among fans, ranging from praise for its elegance to amusement at the specificity.
Why the Color Ban?
In Nigerian and many African wedding cultures, white is reserved exclusively for the bride. It’s a sign of purity, elegance, and spotlight — and on this day, that spotlight belongs entirely to Chioma. Cream, being a softer shade of white, is also off-limits to avoid blending with the bridal glow. By setting this rule, the couple ensures Chioma’s dress moment remains unmatched at her event.
