The wedding was filled with glamour, colours and as well reputable dignitaries in attendance to celebrate with them. The wedding cake never went unnoticed. Photos and videos from the grand ceremony have been shared online, including photos of the wedding cake that left wedding guests and even netizens stunned with its gigantic structure. Each layer of the eight-step cake was stamped with the title of Chinwo's hit songs, the likes of Excess Love, Na You Dey Reign, Obinasom, and Chinedu, amongst others, revealing the inspiration behind the wedding cake. "I remember I was so stuck on Excess Love back in 2018, and then Chinedum. I remember the class I had in Tanzania. We listened to Chinedum back to back. Those songs were words of encouragement to me. They lifted my mood any time I was down. They gingered my spirit while I was working. They still do till date. "While working on this cake, we were vibing to Na You Dey Reign and didn't feel the stress of the work. I had to prepare everything, set it up very well in preparations for my team to deliver to Port Harcourt. And yes I had to dance because I was so happy for a Blessed Mercy. Her excitement was very contagious," the cake designer, Dew Drops Cakes wrote on Instagram. See wedding cake below:

Speaking about setting up the cake at the wedding venue, the cake designer wrote: "Was I scared of the set up because I wasn't there with my team? Yes, I was a bit. But I was also sure of my team I sent out to handle this project. Because my structure for the cake and business was right. "When I say structure, it cuts across a lot of things. I monitored the set up from where I was and I was satisfied. As at 7.30 am, the hall was set, everything ready. We went in and did our set up smoothly. God was so in charge of everything". See video of the set up below:
