Kid Cudi and Lola Abecassis Sartore sealed their love with a French Riviera wedding that honored their fashion roots and hinted at a new musical chapter.
Kid Cudi’s newest chapter in music came with an even bigger moment in his personal life. The Cleveland-born rapper and actor tied the knot with longtime partner Lola Abecassis Sartore.
The affair went down on June 28 at the luxurious Hôtel Cap-Estel on the French Riviera.
The wedding, described by the bride as a “perfect, flawless day,” was steeped in meaning, style and a deep connection to the late fashion visionary Virgil Abloh.
The couple first connected at Abloh’s debut Louis Vuitton show in Paris nearly seven years ago. “I was working behind the scenes, and Scott [Cudi] was walking the runway. Our eyes met in the chaos, and there was a silent spark. After the show, Scott walked straight up and asked for my number,” Lola told Vogue.
Fittingly, the newlyweds paid homage to the beloved designer with a bounce castle at the reception. The act was a nod to Abloh’s whimsical fashion-meets-art legacy. Musical guests BADBADNOTGOOD, who had once played at Abloh’s 2018 LV show, brought live energy to the intimate celebration.
Cudi serenaded his bride with two unreleased songs from his upcoming album Free. It was an indication of things to come.
Cudi recently unveiled the single “Grave,” teasing more musical transformation even though he’s already a genre-bender.
The wedding is a wild shift from the energy around Cudi during the Sean “Diddy” Combs trial. There was a rumored love triangle involving Cudi, Diddy and Cassie Ventura.
