Nigerian TikTok sensation Peller has officially announced that his white wedding with Jarvis will take place on Saturday, August 8, 2026. The streamer, however, made it clear that the ceremony will be a strictly private affair, banning bloggers and limiting the guest list to just 80 to 100 people.
In a social media post shared on Sunday, August 2, 2026, Peller expressed frustration over how his traditional wedding was overrun by cameras and recording devices. He vowed not to let the same thing happen at his upcoming church ceremony.
Peller Reveals Date and Guest Limit
Addressing his fans and followers, Peller stated plainly: "Please, Saturday, August 8 is my white wedding. I don't want bloggers there, the cameras were just too many at my traditional wedding."
He further explained that the decision to reduce the guest list came after observing how some attendees at the traditional wedding behaved. "Do you know many people bought asoebi just so they could come and record my wedding?" he asked, adding that the upcoming event would only host "80 to 100 guests."
Despite his complaints about the excessive filming, the popular streamer acknowledged that the traditional ceremony itself was a success. "Anyway, the traditional wedding was a success," he said, balancing his criticism with gratitude.
Cameras Overran Traditional Wedding
The traditional wedding, which took place in Lagos on Saturday, August 1, 2026, drew significant attention from fans and social media users. Peller claimed that some individuals purchased aso-ebi, the customary uniform worn at Nigerian weddings, not to celebrate the couple but solely to gain entry and record content for personal or online distribution.
The influx of uninvited content creators reportedly overwhelmed the couple and their guests, prompting Peller to take a hardline stance for the white wedding. By setting a strict guest limit and banning bloggers, he aims to ensure a more intimate and controlled environment.
