Mr Eazi chose 9 May for his wedding because it was his late mother’s birthday. On that date in 2025 he married Temi Otedola at the town hall in Monaco, the first of three weddings in three countries that Vogue later featured.

London, January 2017

Mr Eazi, born Oluwatosin Ajibade, built his career between Accra and Lagos and founded the emPawa Africa label. Temi Otedola, daughter of billionaire Femi Otedola, is an actress and fashion writer. They met in London in January 2017, when he went to watch her sister, DJ Cuppy, perform. They dated publicly for years and announced their engagement in 2022.

Monaco, Dubai, Iceland

The civil wedding took place at Monte Carlo Town Hall on 9 May 2025. On 5 July the couple held a Yoruba traditional wedding at the Otedola family home in Dubai. In August they finished in Iceland with a church wedding at Hallgrímskirkja in Reykjavík, then travelled by boat to the Hvammsvík hot springs for a beach party.

Guests across the three events included Aliko Dangote, John Legend and King Sunny Ade. Temi’s wardrobe, styled by Carrie Goldberg, included a custom Wiederhoeft suit, and both wore jackets embroidered “Love Is Eazi”. Photographer Jose Villa shot the Vogue feature.

A new kind of society wedding

Reports widely described it as one of the most expensive weddings in Nigerian history. More than the cost, it set a template: small, private ceremonies in several countries, shared later through a single magazine feature rather than live on social media.
