A Royal Traditional Engagement in Kumasi
Two families, rich traditions and a celebration full of colour and meaning.
- Kumasi, Ashanti Region
- August 2025
- 300 guests
01
The brief
Abena's family is from Kumasi and Kojo's from the Volta Region. They wanted a traditional engagement that honoured both families' customs, with a warm, regal look that would photograph beautifully.
02
Our approach
We met both families early to understand every rite and its order, then built a programme with the family spokespersons. The styling used rich gold, deep plum and kente accents, with a raised platform so every guest could see the ceremony. We coordinated the gifts presentation, attire changes and a seamless switch from ceremony to reception.
03
The result
The ceremony flowed without a single delay, both families felt respected and represented, and the evening reception carried the celebration well into the night.

Moments from the day
“Both our families have very different customs and the team honoured every one of them. The ceremony flowed beautifully and my mother still talks about how organised everything was.”
