Celebrities, fans and friends, in their thousands also took to the social media to send warm wishes and greetings to the Nigerian actress and Nollywood diva.
Rita, the 2012 Africa Movie Academy Award winner for Best Actress in a Leading Role, also won Nollywood Movie Award for Best Actress in a Leading Role.
The princess was seen dancing as she played with her colleagues.
Days earlier, the news of her wedding had stoked up celebration among her fans that waited for for years to see her pick a man.
The La Femme Anjola star successfully kept her relationship private.
Once speaking during a television interview in November 2018 on her experience regarding relationships and how society perceives a woman’s success as incomplete without marriage, Rita insisted she would not marry because society wants her to, but because she wants to.
“At the end of the day, if I’m going to do it, I’m doing it for myself not because society wants me to do it. And I always will still say; I will marry the man of my dreams and not the man society dreams for me”, Rita said. “Society feels there’s something wrong with you if you’re at a certain age and you’re not married. What if it’s the society that something is wrong with for thinking that way; for forcing someone to do what they don’t want to do or forcing them to do what they want to do but in their society’s own time and not at the person’s time?”
