Nigerian actress and billionaire heiress, Temi Otedola, has unveiled stunning details about her traditional wedding outfit, revealing the extraordinary craftsmanship behind her second look for the reception.

The wife of Afrobeats star Mr Eazi, who recently tied the knot in a series of ceremonies across Monaco, Dubai, and Iceland, took to Instagram to share how her reception gown was brought to life.

According to Temi, the elaborate attire was handcrafted by a team of seven embroidery artisans, three couturiers, and five handworkers, who collectively spent 4,590 hours perfecting the gown and cape.

She further disclosed that a Korean fan artisan dedicated 67 hours to creating the accompanying fan, weaving elements of their culture into the ensemble.

“My vision for my reception look was to match the opulence and richness of the tent, and @miss_sohee overdelivered! … Thank you for weaving a piece of your rich culture into our rich culture,” Temi wrote.

Temi and Mr Eazi’s union has been the subject of wide media attention.

The couple had their court wedding on May 9 in Monaco, a traditional ceremony on July 5 in Dubai, and later sealed their vows with a white wedding in Iceland.

Their nuptials were recently featured in Vogue Magazine, where the newlyweds shared exclusive photos and insights into their journey.

Following the ceremonies, Temi updated her social media bio, officially dropping her father’s surname for her husband’s name, Ajibade.

The pair, who got engaged in April 2022, have maintained that their wedding celebrations were intimate, attended only by close family members, and loved ones.
