It's been quite a summer for Maro Itoje.
Having captained the British and Irish Lions to a successful series win over Australia, the 30-year-old also tied the knot back in May, marrying model wife Mimi.
But having since returned victorious from the trip down under, it appears there's still some life in the festivities yet.
The pair celebrated their marriage once more at the Devere Grand Connaught Rooms in London on Friday, surrounded by friends and family. Sign up to Inside Welsh rugby on Substack to get exclusive news stories and insight from behind the scenes in Welsh rugby.
A host of rugby stars were there, including some of Itoje's Saracens team-mates, many of whom adhered to the traditional Nigerian dress code.
"Uhrobo culture to the world," Itojo wrote on Instagram.
"In case you haven’t realised I had my traditional Nigerian wedding last weekend… A time was had."
The Itojes could be seen dancing and enjoying themselves throughout the evening, amid joyous scenes, with the England star opting for a pair of shades for much of the evening.
The pair are believed to have met during a shoot, with Maro popping the question during a holiday to Ghana and Nigeria back in 2024.
Maro subsequently described the moment to the Daily Mail, saying: "We went to this beautiful aqua-safari in Ada, which is on the coast, about two hours from Accra.
"It was a beautiful resort, and I popped the question there."
Take a look at some of the stunning photos from a beautiful day below.
