An American man marrying a Nigerian woman went the extra mile to honour her culture.

Just five days before their wedding, he and his groomsmen hopped on a Zoom call to learn a traditional Igbo dance. From different locations, they practiced the moves together online, determined to get it right.

On the morning of the wedding, they did a final rehearsal at the empty venue. By the time the big moment came, they were ready.

The American groom, dressed in a striking red traditional outfit with a red cap, led his groomsmen (all in matching coral traditional attire) in a sharp, energetic performance of the Igbo dance. Money was sprayed as they danced, and the crowd clearly loved every second of it.

A guest who attended the wedding confirmed it took place in Houston, Texas. The bride is from Umuahia, and the couple had already done their traditional wedding in Nigeria two years earlier. The husband is said to genuinely love Nigerian culture.
