It was a joyful day for reclusive billionaire David Langat and his family as he officially handed over his daughter, Natalie, to his soon-to-be son-in-law Derick Onyancha, at a colourful ‘Koito’ ceremony held in Karen at the weekend, where DP Ruto was a notable attendee.
The pre-wedding ceremony between Natalie and Derick, the son of retired High Court judge David Onyancha, was attended by high-profile guests. These included Deputy President William Ruto, his wife Rachael, Justice Patrick Kiage, Wiper party leader Kalonzo Musyoka, and a host of legislators.
Cabinet Secretaries Charles Keter, Simon Chelugui, and Adan Mohamed and a number of principal secretaries were also in attendance when Ruto attended this tycoon’s occasion.
The bride made her grand entry escorted by Mrs Ruto and the bridesmaids. They were all dressed in red. Mrs Ruto was dressed in a baby pinkish dress.
Natalie looked radiant in a red one-off shoulder dress with the theme of the wedding being a blend of white and maroon at the event attended by DP Ruto.

The bridesmaids would, later on, change to maroon dresses while receiving Natalie on the podium as DP Ruto witnessed the fashion shift.
Guests at the invite-only wedding are said to have been treated to a seven-course meal, an experience truly fit for a tycoon’s gathering.
