Kid Cudi and Lola Abecassis Sartore tied the knot in the South of France.
The rapper, whose real name is Scott Mescudi, married the fashion designer near where she grew up in Èze at Cap Estel on Saturday, June 28, per Vogue.
“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,” Satore told the outlet. “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.”
The ceremony took place in the gardens overlooking the ocean, and was officiated by the couple’s minister, Pastor Rich.

“It was bliss,” Satore told Vogue. “A moment out of time where the world stopped, and it was just the two of us … It was just us and our love, and it was the purest moment.”
Following the ceremony was cocktail hour by the pool, dinner on the lawn and an after-party inside the villa, where the restaurant of the hotel was transformed into a “cozy” speakeasy decorated with red and pink velvets. At the after-party, Cudi, 41, serenaded his new wife with two songs from his upcoming album, which is “inspired” by their love story.
With Satore having previously been a designer at Louis Vuitton and now the head designer at ERL, fashion was important throughout the festivities.
The bride worked with her “bridesman,” Alain Paul, to design her wedding dress. The gown was handmade in Paris, and composed of 60 meters total of six different custom laces. Paul created a mini version of a runway bridal style from a previous collection for Satore’s after-party look.
Meanwhile, Cudi collaborated with Anthony Vaccarello, creative director of Saint Laurent, to create three outfits for the weekend. At the welcome dinner, the “Pursuit of Happiness” singer wore an “elegant” and “laidback” pleated white shirt and tailored sateen black pants. For his ceremony, he opted for a double-breasted black suit in grain de poudre with a sateen lapel, a white shirt and slim tie with Chelsea boots. At the after-party, he wore a crystal embroidered mousseline top with a tailored pant.

The wedding was planned by Jesse Tombs.
“It was intense—but so fun and enjoyable to get to turn our vision into our dream weekend,” Satore told the outlet, noting that the team helped to build a bounce castle as an homage to the late Virgil Abloh.
Sparks flew between Cudi and Satore in 2018 when they connected at Abloh’s first show for Louis Vuitton.
“I was working behind the scenes, and Scott was walking the runway,” Satore recalled to Vogue. “Our eyes met in the chaos, and there was a silent spark. After the show, Scott walked straight up and asked for my number.”

Another nod to Abloh was during cocktail hour, where BadBadNotGood was playing.
“This was a full circle moment as they were playing at Virgil’s first show for Louis Vuitton where we met,” Satore explained.
Cudi and Satore had been dating for about a year when the “Mr. Rager” singer proposed on Dec. 28, 2023, in Kyoto, per Vogue. They pair announced their engagement on Instagram in April 2024. Their separate social posts also served as their relationship debut.
Cudi has a daughter, Vada, from a previous relationship.
