Revealed in Vogue, Jeannie Mai said the wedding ceremony took place simply but cozy at their private villa in Atlanta. Initially, the two had planned to get married abroad, but the prolonged Covid-19 made them decide not to wait any longer.

After Jeezy's mother suddenly passed away, we realized that Life is too short. Jeezy and I just want to be husband and wife, so we decided to hold a small wedding with the closest people, "said 42-year-old MC.

The two met when the rapper guested on her show "The Real". "Years later, he asked me out," recalls Jeannie. "We had a romantic dinner in Los Angeles and danced salsa into the night.

Instead, to remind her of her hometown, he prepared a romantic Vietnamese-style dinner. At the end of that day, Jeezy proposed, officially taking their relationship to a new stage.

To make their event as safe as possible for everyone in attendance, they require negative COVID-19 test results from people who have traveled in the two days before the wedding. "After everyone was tested and confirmed negative, our guests were taken to an unexpected location - our home," Jeannie said.

The party took place in the open garden of the couple's home, against the backdrop of magnolia, birch and maple trees - a setting that is both intimate and romantic. Candles light up the aisle, along with a jazz band performing the couple's favorite songs, creating a warm atmosphere for the wedding day.
