    Our wedding is definitely a mix of both cultures. We are having a non-denominational ceremony because FI isn't religious, but we chose to incorporate a few Filipino ceremony traditions asl well. Other details of our wedding have his touches and mine too. For more info, you can check out my bio.

    There's really no blend for us. FI isnt really in touch with his heritage. There are no major traditions in my fam either.I convinced him to do a "taste of the season ceremony" during the wedding. Which is an african tradition, i believe. That's really it. Instead, we are trying to mix our personalities at the wedding as opposed to our cultures.

    We're having a traditional Nigerian ceremony the day before and changing to nigerian outfits during our dinner reception.
    In honor of FI's Italian heritage, we're giving out mini biscottis as favors.

    The FI and I aren't really steeped in our cultures, we are aware and educated in them, but unless we told you, for the most part you really wouldn't know what our backgrounds are.

    Our unique wedding idea stems from what we love the most - art and the idea of creating things ourselves. We plan on having a wedding that reflects our personalities, as well as those that we love and keep close to us.
