From blending cultures to unforgettable celebrity appearances, their union was one for the books.

Whether you followed the buzz online or missed the big day, here are 8 unforgettable highlights from their glamorous cross-continental celebration:

1. The Surprise Dual Proposal

Before the official wedding announcement, the couple melted hearts with a double proposal story. Juma Jux popped the question with a custom Tanzanite ring in Dar es Salaam, only for Priscilla to surprise him weeks later in Lagos with a symbolic gift and a heartfelt love letter. Modern love, meet mutual romance.

2. Priscilla’s Yoruba-Tanzanian Bridal Fashion Moment

Fashion lovers were in awe as Priscilla stepped out in three custom bridal looks. Her traditional Yoruba aso-oke was hand-beaded with Tanzanian tribal symbols, blending heritage and haute couture. For the reception, she wore a Swahili-inspired kitenge dress that left the audience gasping. Let’s just say: bridal goals were redefined.

3. A Wedding Ceremony that Celebrated Culture

Held at a private beachfront venue in Zanzibar, the ceremony was an intentional and emotional fusion of Yoruba and Tanzanian traditions. From family blessings and symbolic rites to live Swahili performances and Yoruba drummers, it was a celebration of love that respected and honored both cultures.

4. Juma Jux’s Live Serenade — and Surprise Guest

Mid-reception, Juma Jux grabbed the mic to serenade his bride with a never-before-heard love song. As the guests cheered, Nigerian singer Korede Bello emerged from the crowd for an unexpected duet, creating one of the most talked-about moments of the night.

5. The Star-Studded After-Party

With appearances from top African celebrities like Diamond Platnumz, Osas Ighodaro and Iyabo Ojo herself, the after-party was dripping with glam. The couple changed outfits multiple times, the champagne flowed freely, and the dance floor stayed lit till sunrise.

One of the most emotional moments was captured on video: Juma’s face as he saw Priscilla for the first time in her bridal gown. Set to Burna Boy’s “For My Hand”, the cinematic clip went viral, racking up millions of views and turning their love story into a trending topic overnight.

7. A Luxury Safari-Moon in the Serengeti

Ditching the usual beach honeymoon, the newlyweds headed off on a private safari in Tanzania’s Serengeti National Park. From luxury tents under the stars to helicopter views over the savannah, it was the kind of romantic escape that deserves its own Netflix special.
