IBADAN, Nigeria (AFP) — Two brides in identical white dresses. Two grooms in matching suits and bow ties. Two sets of twin children serving as page boys and flower girls. Giant posters featuring two couples with the same names. Even the wedding hashtag — #TwinningInLove2026 — left little room for confusion.

As twin sisters Taiwo and Kehinde Adediran walked down the aisle arm in arm with their father at a church in Ibadan, southwestern Nigeria, to tie the knot with twin brothers Taiwo and Kehinde Oguntoye, guests rose from their seats, lifting smartphones to capture what many described as a once-in-a-lifetime wedding.

“Twins marrying twins, really? This is my first time seeing this!” shouted a passerby outside the church as crowds gathered around the newlyweds for photographs after the ceremony.
