Reykjavík, Iceland – Nigerian music star Oluwatosin Ajibade, popularly known as Mr Eazi, has tied the knot with actress and fashion influencer Temi Otedola, daughter of Nigerian billionaire Femi Otedola, in a breathtaking private ceremony in Iceland.
The white wedding took place on Friday, August 8, 2025, inside the majestic Hallgrímskirkja Church in Reykjavík — one of Iceland’s most iconic landmarks. Known for its striking architecture and serene ambience, the venue provided a perfect backdrop for the couple’s intimate exchange of vows.
A Star-Studded Yet Intimate Gathering
Unlike many celebrity weddings that favour large public displays, Mr Eazi and Temi opted for a low-profile celebration attended only by their closest family and friends.
Among the high-profile guests were Africa’s richest businessman Aliko Dangote, popular Nigerian comedian Broda Shaggi, Temi’s sister and award-winning DJ Cuppy, and their mother Nana Otedola.
The ceremony’s décor was understated yet elegant — soft floral arrangements, warm candlelight, and the natural grandeur of the church itself. Guests described the atmosphere as “deeply personal” and “full of joy.”
Viral Moments and Social Media Buzz
A trending video from the event shows touching highlights — including Temi walking down the aisle in a flowing white gown, Mr Eazi’s beaming smile, and emotional embraces between family members.

Within hours of the video’s release, fans flooded social media with congratulatory messages, praising the couple for keeping the celebration genuine and heartfelt. Many also commended the Otedola family’s close bond, visible throughout the ceremony.
A Love Story Years in the Making
Mr Eazi and Temi Otedola’s relationship first captured public attention several years ago, marked by their shared creative interests and subtle public appearances.
In April 2022, Mr Eazi proposed to Temi in a private setting, later sharing a short video clip of the moment with fans. The proposal sparked widespread celebration across Nigeria and the African entertainment scene, with many lauding the couple as one of the industry’s most stylish and grounded duos.
Their wedding in Iceland reflects the same tone — private, meaningful, and deeply personal.
Cultural Pride Meets Global Glamour
While the location was far from their home countries, the couple incorporated African flair into the celebration. The reception featured Afrobeats music — including Mr Eazi’s own hits — alongside international classics. Guests were treated to a fusion of Nigerian and continental cuisine, blending rich flavours with modern presentation.
This wedding also serves as a symbolic union of two spheres:
- Music & Culture – Mr Eazi, known for pioneering “Banku Music” (a unique blend of Ghanaian highlife and Nigerian chord progressions), has been instrumental in taking African sounds to global stages.
- Fashion & Film – Temi Otedola, a graduate of the University of London, is celebrated both for her award-winning acting (notably in Citation) and her fashion influence via the JTO Fashion blog.
Reactions from Fans and Industry Peers
News of the wedding was met with an outpouring of love from fellow musicians, actors, and fans. Afrobeats superstar Wizkid posted a congratulatory message on Instagram, calling the couple “an inspiration.” Actress Genevieve Nnaji praised their decision to keep the event intimate, saying, “In a world that wants everything public, protecting what matters is powerful.”
Social media users echoed these sentiments, with many commenting on the couple’s refusal to turn the occasion into a publicity stunt.
Why the Iceland Choice Matters
The decision to wed in Iceland — a country known for its dramatic landscapes and peaceful environment — aligns with the couple’s desire for privacy. The Hallgrímskirkja Church, with its soaring tower and minimalist beauty, added a touch of Scandinavian elegance to the African love story.
By avoiding the typical Lagos or Dubai celebrity wedding route, Mr Eazi and Temi made a statement: love and commitment can shine brightest away from the spotlight.
A Symbol for Modern African Celebrity Culture
In many ways, the wedding reflects a broader shift in African celebrity culture:
- Selective Sharing – Choosing which moments to share publicly, rather than opening every detail to social media.
- Global Footprint – Hosting major life events in international settings while maintaining a strong African cultural identity.
- Personal Over Publicity – Prioritising personal meaning over spectacle.
Looking Ahead
As of now, neither Mr Eazi nor Temi has publicly shared detailed honeymoon plans, though sources suggest they may spend time exploring Iceland’s natural wonders before returning to their professional projects.
Mr Eazi is expected to resume his ongoing international tour later this year, while Temi continues work on her upcoming film project and fashion ventures.
Conclusion
The marriage of Mr Eazi and Temi Otedola is more than just a union of two high-profile figures — it’s a testament to love rooted in mutual respect, cultural pride, and intentional living.
For fans across Africa and the diaspora, this wedding will be remembered not only for its scenic beauty but also for the couple’s quiet defiance of the celebrity wedding playbook.
From Reykjavík’s icy elegance to the warmth of African heritage, the ceremony perfectly captured the blend of worlds that defines Mr Eazi and Temi’s relationship.
