Cynthia and Uyiosa’s Wedding took place at the Napa Valley Marriott in Napa, CA. Cynthia’s family is from Nigeria, and Uyiosa is from there as well, so they decided to do a mix of events and traditions from both Nigerian and American styles of weddings. We started off the day with Cynthia and her bridesmaids getting ready in the bridal suite at the Marriott. You’ll see in the pics below that Cynthia had a few different outfits that she wore throughout the wedding day, and she started with her white wedding gown for the ceremony. The sun was starting to get lower in the sky as we drove to the ceremony at St. Apollinaris Church, which made for the perfect time to pull off on the side of the road and do some gorgeous shots in the vines by the hotel. After the ceremony we headed back to the reception, which was decorated with beautiful uplights in shades of orange and purple. A lot of the guests at the reception wore their Nigerian formal wear for the event, and we loved how beautiful and elaborate all of the dresses, robes, and headdresses were!
