Ahead of the official premiere of 'My Fairytale Wedding,' Africa Magic hosted a star-studded private screening of its limited series on October 9, 2024, in Victoria Island, Lagos.
Africa Magic introduced its guests to a relatable romantic comedy story led by Nollywood A-listers Ramsey Nouah and Ini Edo, the latter of whom doubles as an executive producer on the series.
The exclusive event, held at The Hall, V.I., Lagos, and hosted by Bisola Aiyeola saw the star-studded cast alongside Nollywood’s talents take over the screening. Varying reactions pointed to the show's mastery and strength in storytelling.
Directed by Dimeji Ajibola, My Fairytale Wedding tells the story of a young lady who, with the help of magic (Kayanmata), bags the most eligible bachelor in Lagos. She hopes this will guarantee her true love.
