The Grand Celebration of Davido and Chioma's Wedding
Afrobeats sensation Davido, whose real name is David Adeleke, is set to tie the knot with his wife, Chioma, in a lavish white wedding ceremony in Miami, United States. The event is scheduled for Sunday, August 10, 2025, at The Havana in Miami. This grand affair has been generating significant buzz among fans and followers, as it promises to be one of the most extravagant celebrations in the music industry this year.
Pre-Wedding Events and Attendees
Before the main ceremony, a pre-wedding dinner was held to honor the couple. The event brought together close family members and friends, who were all present to witness the beginning of the couple's new life together. The atmosphere was filled with love and joy, as evidenced by a video that circulated online showing Davido and Chioma expressing their affection for each other.
In the video, Davido was seen wearing a multicolored outfit, while Chioma appeared in a white gown, making them the center of attention. Among the attendees were familiar faces such as Adekunle Gold, Teni, and popular blogger Tunde Ednut. These individuals added to the excitement and glamour of the evening.
Absences That Raised Questions
Despite the presence of many loved ones, some notable figures were missing from the event. One such person was Cubana Chief Priest, a close friend and associate of Davido. His absence sparked curiosity among fans and media alike. In an Instagram post, Cubana Chief Priest explained that although he could not attend in person, his wife was there to represent him. He shared his mixed emotions, stating that he felt both happy and sad about the situation.
He wrote, “Woke up this morning with mixed feelings. I’m happy and I’m still sad at the same time. Sometimes God has a way of making you understand that you are powerless, regardless of all you may think you have.” He also expressed his hope for a visa approval to visit the U.S. soon, saying, “Delay is never denial; CP is still hopeful.”
Visa Issues Affecting Family Members
Another concern raised was the absence of Chioma’s parents, who were allegedly unable to attend due to visa issues. According to a post by journalist and blogger Stella Dimokokorkus, the parents' visas were revoked because they overstayed during their previous visit to the U.S. She claimed that when they entered the country, they stated they would stay for one month, but their stay extended due to Chioma's health condition.
The post mentioned that Chioma experienced postpartum complications and became anemic, requiring her mother to stay longer to care for her. Meanwhile, the father returned after the initial period they had indicated. This situation led to the revocation of their visas and a temporary ban on their entry.
The Cost and Excitement Surrounding the Event
Davido also revealed that the wedding would cost a total of $3.7 million. During a pre-wedding photoshoot, he shared news of a new tattoo that read "Chioma" on the left side of his lower abdomen. This personal touch added to the excitement surrounding the event.
As the much-anticipated wedding day approaches, fans are eagerly watching one of the biggest celebrations in the music industry this year. The event promises to be a memorable occasion, filled with love, joy, and the celebration of a union that has captured the hearts of many.
