The Wedding Party stars, Adesua Etomi and Banky W, are re-enacting their magical love story in the movie in real life with a February engagement and nuptials set towards the end of 2017.

The love story of the friends who met in 2012, started dating last year and got engaged in February 2017 is akin to a fairy tale.
Here are quick facts about the lovebirds:
1. While Adesua was born on February 22, 1988, Banky W came into the world on March 27, 1981. That’s a seven year gap – Adesua is 29, and Banky 36.
