A Nigerian bride has
gone viral and even made it to international publications after she arrived at
her wedding anniversary in a giant inflatable balloon.
Nigerian event planner
Reverence, wanted to celebrate her tenth wedding anniversary with her husband,
Joseph Efoma-Oruerio in style. She wanted a unique entrance so she did just
that.
She ordered a giant
inflatable balloon to make her grand entrance into the venue, even if it cost
her $500 and had to be shipped from Dubai.
At the reception,
which held in Warri, Nigeria, Reverence stupefied her guests as she rolled in
with the transparent ball.
Reverence, 35, and
husband Joseph, 51, invited friends and family to celebrate the special day
with them.
She said: “The
idea came from watching my kids playing in the pool with a balloon. I started
thinking of how a bride could make an entrance into her wedding in a balloon. I
searched online for life-size balloons and eventually bought one from Dubai for
$500.
“It was the first time the guests saw a bride in a balloon, they screamed so much with excitement. It was the highlight of the event.”
