Kemilia and Jonny love each other so much they decided to get married three times! The couple had a legal wedding, a traditional Nigerian wedding, and lastly a classic “white dress” wedding and all we can say is wow. The sophisticated yet joyful garden party at Syon Park was nothing short of spectacular. Bramble & Moss Florists wove a botanical theme throughout the wedding with lush greenery creating the look of a modern fairytale. All of the precious picture-perfect moments of the day were captured by the incredible Zosia Zacharia. The day was also captured on film by the fantastic Dan Dolan Films. Take a luxurious trip to London in the full gallery.
From the bride… Jonny and I always knew we would get married three times – a legal registry wedding, a traditional Nigerian wedding ceremony, and finally a classic “white dress” Christian wedding. We wanted to go out with a bang and make our third and final wedding the most spectacular of them all! This is how we ended up choosing to host the wedding at Syon Park.
Once the venue was confirmed, we incorporated the botanical theme throughout our wedding aesthetic. From the tropical King Protea flowers in the bride and bridesmaids’ bouquets courtesy of Bramble & Moss Florists to the groom’s bespoke deep green wedding suit, we added touches of luxurious gold, green and blush tones wherever we could. We also wanted to reflect our diverse backgrounds so subtle references to Nigerian, African-American, Jamaican, and English culture are featured in the decor and wedding breakfast menu.
Guests were given a historical tour of Syon Park before being led to a cocktail hour in the courtyard where they could sip signature cocktails and enjoy a saxophonist and lawn games. After dinner we set up a Cuban rum and cigar bar on the lawn as well as a gelato truck and snack station to keep the guests’ hunger at bay after all the dancing!
