In a breathtaking display of love, culture, and couture, celebrity couple Temi Otedola and Mr Eazi redefined what weddings could be in the summer of 2025. Their celebrations spanned three continents—each one uniquely curated with intention, emotional resonance, and jaw-dropping style. Vogue’s dazzling slideshow captures every unforgettable moment.
1. Monaco: The Intimate Civil Ceremony
On May 9, 2025—Mr Eazi’s late mother’s birthday the couple held a serene legal ceremony at the Mairie de Monaco. Temi donned a tailored suit by Wiederhoeft, with Briony Raymond’s exquisite jewelry, while Mr Eazi embraced a sleek Louis Vuitton ensemble. The mood? “Weirdly calm energy; just the two of us, no distractions,” as Temi reflected. They later toasted their union at Karl Lagerfeld’s Villa La Vigie, with Temi stunning in a Christopher John Rogers polka-dot dress.
2. Dubai: Tradition Meets High Fashion
Two months later, they honored Yoruba customs with a lavish ceremony at the Otedola family residence in Dubai. Temi’s bridal wardrobe was a fashion collector’s dream custom Yoruba bridal gowns by Zac Posen, Miss Sohee, Lisa Folawiyo, and Oscar de la Renta, styled by Carrie Goldberg and Momo Hassan-Odukale.
Highlights included:
• Zac Posen’s ivory gown with dramatic pleats, gelee, and a sculptural bow that evoked a modern-day Nefertiti.
• A bold, deep-red skirt paired with a powder-blue corset and a couture cape by Miss Sohee that radiated unapologetic bridal drama.
• A deeply emotional moment when Temi called Eazi “my oko” (my husband), making the ceremony even more poignant.pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-9245413304319760" crossorigin="anonymous">
The reception dazzled under a tent with 2,000 lanterns, chandeliers, Ankara-upholstered booths, and Nigerian delicacies pounded yam, snail, egusi creating a “Nigerian Members Club” ambience. Temi then changed into an akwa ocha-inspired strapless gown by Lisa Folawiyo, honoring Mr Eazi’s Igbo heritage and his late mother’s legacy, while Eazi matched in Mazelle—followed by dancing to King Sunny Adé’s vibrant melodies.
3. Iceland: Romance in the Arctic
In August 2025, the couple held a “white wedding” in their “favorite place on earth,” Iceland. The rehearsal dinner at Harpa Opera House had Temi in Valentino, with Mr Eazi in Amiri and Dsquared2 shoes.
Ceremony highlights:
• A Fendi Haute Couture gown for Temi, and head-to-toe Saint Laurent for Eazi, in the iconic Hallgrimskirkja church, with Wagner’s “Bridal Chorus” echoing through the stone halls as their London pastor officiated.

• A jaw-dropping surprise—a live performance by John Legend—left the bride elated.
• Post-ceremony fun: a party at the Edition’s underground club with a mini by Ludovic de Saint Sernin for her and Louis Vuitton for him; both sported “Love Is Eazi” custom jackets.
• Final closure with a trip to Hvammsvik Hot Springs, an arctic beach party under the Northern Lights, lounging in geothermal pools, and feasting from iconic Icelandic food stalls like burrata pizza, butter chicken, and the famous Bæjarins Beztu Pylsur hot dog.
