Help Us Celebrate Our Dream Wedding in Nigeria

Donation protected
My name is Burnetta, and I am preparing for a once-in-a-lifetime journey to Lagos Island, Nigeria, for my wedding in June 2026. This celebration is not just about me and my soon-to-be husband, but about bringing together my family and closest friends to share in a vibrant Yoruba traditional ceremony. My mom, my son, my two best friends, and my uncle and his wife will be traveling with me. My uncle will be standing in for my late father, who always prayed for my happiness and for me to find a loving, Godly partner. While my daughter can't join us due to her responsibilities as a mother of seven, her support means the world to me.


This wedding is more than a ceremony—it's a spiritual and cultural experience that I want my family to remember forever. We hope to explore historical sites in Nigeria, Ghana, and even visit the Equator, making this trip educational and unforgettable. The Yoruba wedding is known for its color, joy, and deep meaning, and I want my loved ones to be part of every moment.


My fiancé is truly an answer to prayer. He is kind, thoughtful, and consistent, always encouraging me and covering me in prayer. After my first marriage, I never thought I would believe in soul mates, but he has changed my perspective. We support each other in every way, and I am grateful for this new chapter.


I am reaching out for help with travel, boarding, and wedding attire costs for my family and friends. Your support will allow us to focus on the engagement and wedding expenses, and make this dream a reality. Thank you for being part of our journey and helping us create memories that will last a lifetime.
