Intimate Home-ceremony Instead of Destination Wedding
The couple met when he was a guest on her daytime talk show The Real. “Years later, he asked me out on a date,” Jeannie remembers:“We shared a romantic sushi dinner in Los Angeles and salsa danced the night away. Later that evening, he asked if I could picture spending the rest of my life with him. And crazy enough, I could.”

“Once everyone was tested and confirmed negative, our guests were shuttled to the surprise location—our home,” Jeannie shares with Vogue.At the end of the day, Jeezy and Jeannie Mai really just wanted to become husband and wife. So we decided to turn our original wedding into a mini-mony, an intimate ceremony in which you invite only immediate family and a few close friends.

The service of the happy couple took place in the open garden at their home and was situated against a backdrop of magnolia, birch, and maple trees — a setting that was both intimate and familial. “Everywhere you went, there were tall glass candles lighting your path,” Jeannie says. “And, we had a live band, Trap Jazz, perform our favorite songs.”
