check out africastyles.com for different dresses and as far as patterns Hancock Fabrics and Wal-Mart's fabric department have a good variety on different african inspired wedding attire.
hope this helps. Also as far as fabric, we went to an African vendor at a festival here in Memphis and I'm sure if you looked in your area for a West African textile specialist you may come across something. And check some of your mainstream fabric stores (you will be surprised.)
