What happens at the traditional ceremony?
You can read more about Yoruba engagement ceremonies here -- but mostly expect Nigerian food, dancing, and celebratory fun. Bring cash in small denominations -- $1, $5, etc. -- to "spray" the couple with for good luck.
Since most of our guests are local, we don't have a room block, but see our list below for some local hotel recommendations a short distance from the venue. There are also many Airbnbs in the area! We encourage you to book early! August is Seattle's high season for tourism.
