Bimbo Ademoye’s romantic comedy, ‘My 30th Wedding’, attracted more than 10 million YouTube views within days of its release, adding to the audience for her independently distributed films.
The production premiered on Bimbo Ademoye TV on 1 October 2026. According to Nairametrics, its viewing count stood at about 10.74 million in the early hours of 4 October.
That figure records its early performance rather than its current total. The film stars Ademoye alongside Timini Egbuson. nairametrics.com
A wedding planner faces pressure to marry
Written and produced by Ademoye, the film follows a successful wedding planner who wants to marry before her 30th birthday.
Her work brings her into contact with a wealthy widower, played by Egbuson, who hires her to organise a memorial event for his late wife.
Their growing relationship becomes entangled with family expectations, differences in social standing, and the responsibilities of entering an existing family.
The story also examines the pressure placed on an unmarried woman whose professional success does not stop relatives from questioning her relationship status. (premiumtimesng.com)
Wedding photographs were part of the publicity.
Before the release, photographs of Ademoye and Egbuson dressed as a bride and groom prompted speculation about their relationship.
BellaNaija explained that the images were promotional photographs for the film.
The campaign featured both white wedding outfits and traditional styling. The photographs were not an announcement that the actors had married each other. (bellanaija.com)
Strong audience figures, with reservations from a critic.
In a review published on 10 October, Premium Times critic Emmanuel Muna praised the lead actors’ performances and their chemistry.
However, he questioned the film’s reliance on misunderstandings and the speed with which its central relationship problems were resolved. He awarded it seven out of ten.
That assessment is the critic’s opinion, rather than a Trivane News review. (premiumtimesng.com)
‘My 30th Wedding’ is available through Bimbo Ademoye TV on YouTube, the platform she also uses to distribute other original productions directly to viewers.” (nairametrics.com)
