Kid Cudi ties the knot with Lola Abecassis Sartore during wedding in South of France
Kid Cudi has tied the knot with fiancée Lola Abecassis Sartore during a timeless wedding in the South of France.
In photos exclusively shared with Vogue magazine, the "Pursuit of Happiness" hitmaker, born Scott Mescudi, and Sartore's nuptials took place on June 28 at the luxury Cap Estel hotel in Èze, overlooking the ocean.
"It was bliss," the menswear designer said. "A moment out of time where the world stopped, and it was just the two of us. We forgot everything around us. It was just us and our love, and it was the purest moment."
The couple first met in 2018 at Virgil Abloh's first show for Louis Vuitton: "I was working behind the scenes, and Scott was walking the runway," adding that "our eyes met in the chaos, and there was a silent spark. After the show, Scott walked straight up and asked for my number."
Abecassis Sartore revealed that the couple also included special touches that paid tribute to Off-White founder Abloh, including a "full circle moment" featuring Badbadnotgood (the band from the night the couple met at the fashion icon's show) playing during cocktail hour and building a bounce castle to pay homage to him.
"Everyone (we know who had) already gotten married told us it would go fast," the bride told Vogue. "We didn't know it would go this quickly (though). We're on cloud nine in our little bubble of love. It's so overwhelming to receive so much love in such a short amount of time."
"You want this feeling to never end. It was really the most perfect, flawless, peaceful day, and we want to do it all over again. Looking back, I wouldn't change a thing," she added.
The happy news comes after the rapper took the stand in Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal sex-crimes trial, leveling allegations that Combs broke into his home and locked his dog in a bathroom – and that his vehicle blew up in another incident – after the embattled mogul found out they both dated Cassandra "Cassie" Ventura Fine.
The rapper dated Ventura Fine briefly in 2011. Ventura Fine told the court that when Combs learned of their relationship, he lunged at her with a corkscrew and kicked her in the back.
After his testimony ended, Cudi thanked fans and said, "I've been seeing all the love and support. I just wanna say thank you so much, man."
"People been hitting me up the past week, just checking in," he added. "And even today. It really means a lot to me, man. You guys are the best. I love y'all. This is a stressful situation. I'm glad it's behind me. I love y'all, man. Big love. Go stream 'Neverland,'" in reference to his recent single.
