Zlatan Ibile and Davita Lamai wedding

Overview

Nigerian singer Zlatan Ibile announced his intention to marry his longtime partner, Davita Omoniyi, with a formal wedding celebration scheduled for October 24, 2026. The announcement was shared via social media, noting that the couple, who have two sons, had previously held a private court ceremony.

On October 24, the couple held a traditional wedding ceremony that featured two distinct cultural looks. For their first look, the couple honored Davita’s Edo heritage. Davita wore a custom burgundy mermaid gown by Dova Bridals, featuring a corseted bodice, intricate red beadwork, a traditional Okuku braided crown, and coral necklaces. Zlatan complemented her in a custom ivory outfit by Deji & Kola, accented with red beadwork, coral beads, and a carved wooden staff.

The couple later transitioned into a second look celebrating Zlatan’s Yoruba roots, utilizing a color palette of lemon yellow and mint green. Davita wore a two-piece design by Mazelle Bridal with mint-green floral appliqué, while Zlatan wore a matching mint-green agbada.

The star-studded event drew numerous prominent figures from the entertainment industry, including singer Davido, who participated as a groomsman, and fashion designer Veekee James. Following the ceremony, Nollywood actress Joke Jigan sparked social media discussion regarding the guest list. She humorously noted the absence of prominent Lagos socialites and female influencers, often referred to as ‘Lagos baddies,’ observing that the gathering appeared to be dominated by well-dressed men.
