Reality television personality Elad Tzepni, 36, married his fiancée Romi Grossman, 26, on Wednesday evening. The wedding ceremony took place at the "Lago" hall in Rishon LeZion, approximately one year after Tzepni proposed to Grossman at the Western Wall. The couple, who have been together for a year and a half, celebrated their union with friends and family.

Singer Gal Adam performed his song "Bishvilech" (For You) during the ceremony. The guest list included numerous celebrities and public figures, such as Oshrat Cohen, Eden Pines, Odia Azulai, Sharak, Amir Dadon, Moshe Peretz, Lior Narkis, Eden Ben Zaken and her husband Shuki Biton, Shashon Shaulov, Liran Danino, Izzy, Maor Buzaglo, Michal Hakatanah, Liam and Elin Golan, Talia Ovadia, and Tzepni's former "Big Brother" castmates Jackie Menachem, Nofar Mor, and Lehia Griner. The bride, Grossman, was set to change into two different dresses designed by Shiran Margut.

The wedding follows a recent henna ceremony held in August, which drew criticism. Tzepni addressed the backlash, particularly comments regarding the decade-long age difference between him and Grossman, and perceived disparities. He stated, "Every time I read something like 'What is she doing with him,' or 'It's probably because of the money,' or the fame, or whatever, I actually feel like I've won. I don't know how many of you will get to say they truly experienced love that is independent of anything."

Grossman's family was also invited to the celebration. Tzepni and Grossman first met through mutual friends. This union comes less than two months after their henna celebration and exactly one year after the proposal at the Western Wall.
