Israeli singer Omer Adam and Sasha Israelovitch celebrated their main wedding event on August 26, 2026, at the historic La Cervara Monastery in Portofino, Italy. The couple, who began dating just over six months ago, held the lavish ceremony under heavy security, attended by prominent Israeli celebrities and friends. Mako's correspondent in Portofino managed to capture exclusive footage of the event, including the bride and groom at the chuppah, which was conducted with gender separation.

The wedding took place against a stunning backdrop overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, with a carefully curated guest list including Eden Pines, Oshir Cohen, the "Ma Kashur" trio, Yana Yosef, Eran and Shay Zahavi, Aviv Geffen and his wife Sharon Kaufman, Lior Narkis and others. Guests were requested to maintain strict privacy, refrain from taking photos or stories, and instead donate to charities supporting children with cancer or the Weizmann Institute in lieu of gifts.

Omer and Sasha personally covered all travel and transportation expenses for their 150 guests, including flights from Milan to Portofino and a private beach party the night before. The couple had already married in a private ceremony earlier that week, releasing photos only recently. Their relationship progressed quickly, with Omer proposing during a romantic Passover vacation in Tulum, Mexico, just two months after they started dating.

The wedding marks a significant milestone for Omer Adam, who finalized his divorce from Yael Shalvia a year earlier after five years together. The celebration is expected to continue late into the night, marking the official start of their married life surrounded by close friends and family.
