On Valentine’s Day 2026, drivers in Lekki looked up to see billboards for one woman. Music video producer Femi Dapson had rented them for his fiancée, lifestyle influencer Simi Sanya, four days before their court wedding.
A serenade and a hashtag
Simi Sanya is a Lagos lifestyle influencer, and Femi Dapson a music video director and producer. He proposed with a live serenade that circulated widely online, and the couple announced a four-part wedding under the hashtag #MeetTheDapsons26.
Lagos, February and March 2026
The civil wedding took place in Lagos on 18 February 2026, and Simi announced it with a “Legally Hitched” post. The traditional wedding followed in March, with Femi in a blush pink agbada with forest green embroidery and Simi in a matching Prudential Gabriel gown with sculptural green sleeves. For the reception she changed into a beaded burgundy and champagne gown.
Bridesmaids in purple and turquoise and a red-toned pre-wedding shoot fed a steady stream of fashion coverage, and a thanksgiving service at Harvesters Church closed the celebrations with a crowd of celebrities.
