The First TUBO Bride of the Year: A Decade of Love in Every Detail
The First Lady originally envisioned a cream dress, but we knew ecru would be the perfect shade. It’s warm, sophisticated, and carried a subtle significance—an acknowledgment of this beautiful milestone and a nod to the timelessness of their union. White wasn’t necessary because this wasn’t the beginning; this was a renewal, a promise to continue building a life together.
The sparkle in the dress was intentional—each bead and embellishment reflected the light that ten years of marriage, four beautiful children, and countless shared memories bring. The hand-beaded Chantilly lace gave the dress a delicacy that was both traditional and modern. Every stitch, every detail, was a labor of love.
A Moment for Drama and Elegance
A Dress That Speaks of LoveThe First Lady loves sleeves, so we designed sheer, beaded sleeves that felt soft and regal, perfect for her vow renewal ceremony in the grand cathedral hall of Imo State’s Catholic Church. And because no TUBO bride is complete without a little drama, we added a detachable cape—a statement piece for her red-carpet walk down the aisle.
Her veil, crafted from Chantilly lace, was subtle yet impactful. It was traditional enough to honor the sacredness of the ceremony but transparent enough to let her beauty shine through. The veil was delicate yet bold—a reflection of the First Lady herself.
Styling Every Detail
As her stylist, Tubobereni ensured every accessory told its own story. She wore drop silver diamond earrings from Akano Diamonds, paired with her new wedding band—a symbol of renewed love. Her shoes, from Amina Muaddi, were transparent for a modern, understated elegance and designed for comfort. A pop of red on her toenails added the perfect bold touch, a reminder that even in subtlety, there’s room for flair.
The magic of the day was beautifully captured by @_avidstudio, ensuring every moment was immortalized with cinematic brilliance. Her flawless makeup, crafted by @bmpro, highlighted her natural glow, while @touchofIbee worked their expertise to create a hairstyle that perfectly framed her radiant smile. Together, the team brought an unparalleled blend of elegance and artistry to her look.
A Decade of Light and Love
This dress wasn’t just for the First Lady—it was for the life she and her husband have built together. A decade of partnership, love, and shared light deserved a dress that matched its beauty. The sparkle wasn’t just for show; it was symbolic of their years together and the light that will guide them into the future.
The First Lady’s vow renewal wasn’t just an event; it was a statement—a love story retold, a journey celebrated, and a future embraced. At TUBO, we don’t just create dresses. We create moments, memories, and reflections of the women who wear them. And this moment, this dress, will shine for years to come. #CHDecadeOfLove
