Afrobeat superstar David Adeleke, known globally as Davido, pulled out all the stops at his glamorous white wedding to Chioma in Miami. In a jaw-dropping gesture, Davido surprised his bride with a factory-iced-out Richard Mille wristwatch worth $300,000 during the star-studded ceremony.
The couple touched down in Miami in style, flying in aboard a private jet adorned with floral arrangements and a seat embroidered “MRS.” Their arrival officially ushered in a weekend of celebration.
The $3.7 million bash—entirely in cash—came after the couple’s widely celebrated traditional wedding in Lagos in June 2024.
Stylish yet surreal, Davido and Chioma pulled off a stunning black-and-white monochrome look during pre-wedding festivities. Chioma stunned in a feathered-sleeve gown with a flowing train, while Davido looked dapper in a sleek white suit. Their baroque backdrop added regal flair.
Guests received an unusual dress-code directive: “Black tie and evening gown only—no white or cream allowed,” reserved for the couple to shine.
The Miami ceremony added another chapter to Davido and Chioma’s long and emotional journey. The pair got engaged in 2019, tragically lost their first son Ifeanyi in 2022, legally married in 2023, welcomed twins later that year, and began their union with a traditional wedding in mid-2024.
The highlight of the evening was when Davido presented the dazzling Richard Mille watch to Chioma. A viral clip captures the moment the watch was placed on her wrist, met with her radiant joy and cheers from attendees. “David said, ‘I have to give my wife the Richard Mille wristwatch valued at $300,000. This is just one of the gifts,’” a family member revealed during the gift exchange.
