If you’ve ever helped a friend plan a wedding or gone through the process yourself, you know the stress. The endless chats, the uncertainty of finding a trusted vendor, the late-night anxiety, and the constant chase for perfection.
To solve all the chaos amidst the beautiful jitters that come with wedding planning, Nigerian entrepreneur, Ogaga Peter Edafe, has founded a WedTech platform designed to end all the stress. Pelbliss arrived at a time when humanity needed it most. In a time when everything is going digital, Pelbliss is here to ensure that weddings and events in Africa don’t get left behind in the fast-paced world of technology and innovation.
Here’s everything you should—and deserve—to know about Pelbliss.
Nigeria’s wedding industry is rich with culture, color, and emotion—but until now, it’s lacked one thing: a central digital platform to plan and manage it all with ease. Enter Pelbliss—Africa’s first WedTech platform, created to connect couples with trusted vendors and offer modern tools to plan events effortlessly.
Surprisingly, Pelbliss wasn’t born in a conference room or from tech-savviness. It was born out of lived experience.
The founder, Peter Ogaga Edafe, a Nigerian entrepreneur and graduate of the University of Suffolk, had a front-row seat to the stress of planning a wedding in Nigeria. When preparing for his own nuptials, he and his wife found themselves in the all-too-familiar loop of countless DMs, vendor delays, hours of Instagram scrolling just to find the right services, and last-minute disappointments. Despite their best efforts, the process was exhausting.
Although the planning experience was stressful, it was also beautiful. Whnile having a planner came later due to the endless stress, the couple felt some form of happiness in being able to plan their own event.
Fast forward to a few years later, this experience lit a spark. The question arose: What if there was a centralized tool that made everything easier for planning a wedding in Nigeria? What if planning a celebration didn’t have to be this stressful? The what-ifs and brainstorming led to the birth of Pelbliss.
Nigerian weddings are known for their elaborate and vibrant nature. Yet, for all their grandeur, planning them still relies heavily on outdated, offline methods.
While Pelbliss centers around couples, it also gives vendors a platform where they can shine. From photographers to caterers, vendors on Pelbliss get to showcase their work in curated profiles with photos, reviews, and clear service categories. It’s a chance to be discovered by clients who are actively searching for their expertise.
Perhaps one of the most beautiful things about Pelbliss is that event planners can greatly benefit from it, too. Another thing that makes it different is that it isn’t trying to replace planners or traditions. It’s not trying to simplify weddings—it’s trying to simplify the stress around weddings.
Truth is, not every couple can afford the luxury of a personal wedding planner, and that’s where Pelbliss comes in. The platform offers a range of vendors and services to meet the budget of every intending couple—whether it’s a modest ceremony or a grand affair.
So whether you’re searching for a makeup artist, photographer, bridal stylist, or decorator, Pelbliss houses a network of verified professionals ready to bring your dream celebration to life.
