Over the weekend, while you were enjoying Valentine’s Day festivities with your bae, Tyler Perry and his ladylove Gelila Bekele were celebrating the christening of their son, Aman Tyler Bekele-Perry. The star-studded ceremony was held in the backyard of Perry’s Beverly Hills home inside of a custom-built church.

“I had this church built in my backyard. It’s almost a direct replica of the one my Mother grew up in. It was in her honor. I know she was with us in spirit,” Tyler expressed on Facebook.

The program for the dedication ceremony included Pastor Smokie Norful, Vashawn Mitchell, Yolanda Adams, Jennifer Hudson and Bill and Kori Withers.

Tyler and Gelila decided to name Cicely Tyson, Oprah Winfrey and Oliver Ripley as little Aman’s godparents.

It looks like everyone had an amazing time. Check out photos from the ceremony below and on the following pages.
