2021 was a year of extravagant weddings that had the whole nation and even Africa talking. From Kumasi’s Royal Wedding to Sika Osei’s Ghana-Naija wedding, here are all the top weddings that happened in Ghana.

The year 2021 has been a very eventful one for some of our celebrities who got married to their heartthrobs.

All the pomp and pageantry that trail celebrity weddings kept us hooked on some of them as we faithfully kept watch for the latest photos from their nuptials while others kept things low-key and private. Others tried to hide it from the public until the last minute— but became much bigger and most talked about as expected.

Though, one thing all these weddings had in common was the abundant show of love between the brides and their grooms. We couldn’t help but be glad that these celebrities have found and settled with their better halves.

Here are the top Ghanaian celebrity weddings in 2021 we won’t forget.
