Fusion Wedding in Maryland with Fuchsia and Orange Details by Eli Turner: Rejane + Wala-Zokeseh

Don’t you hate it when a woman is told she’ll never find a man because she’s far too opinionated? Well, this bride, Rejane, proved that theory way wrong – so wrong, in fact, that the man who fell for her is a direct relative of the person who pronounced her too opinionated. How’s that for irony? ;) Wala-Zokeseh Labala and Rejane Frederick got married on November 3, 2012 in the Maryland Zoo Mansion House in a Liberian/American fusion ceremony – a nod to their respective heritages – that they best describe as “a vibrant tropical feel reminiscent of the West African coast, in spite of the November autumn chill,” using a mixture of vibrant and earthy colors, “deep fuchsia, mango orange, specks of gold, and earth tones.”

Their celebration of love was photographed by Eli Turner Studios. You can also see more from their wedding on the gallery and our partner site, Ebony.com.
