Reality Star Elad Tzepni Weds Romi Grossman Amidst Public Scrutiny

Reality television personality Elad Tzepni, 36, and his fiancée Romi Grossman, 26, celebrated their wedding on Wednesday, one year after Tzepni proposed at the Western Wall. The couple, who have been together for a year and a half, held their ceremony at the "Lago" hall in Rishon LeZion, attended by family and numerous Israeli celebrities.

Singer Gal Adam performed his song "Bishvilech" during the ceremony, while Sasson Shaulov was scheduled to perform later in the evening. Grossman was expected to change into two different dresses designed by Shiran Margot. The couple met through mutual friends and their wedding follows a henna ceremony held in August, which drew criticism, partly due to the decade-long age difference between them and other perceived issues.

Following the criticism of their henna celebration, Tzepni addressed the backlash, stating, "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."

Among the notable guests were Oshrat Cohen, Eden Pins, Odia Azulai, Shir, Amir Daddon, Moshe Partz, Lior Narkis, Eden Ben Zaken and her husband Shuki Biton, Sasson Shaulov, Liran Danino, Izzy, Maor Buzaglo, Michal Haketana, Liam and Elin Golan, Talia Ovadia, and Tzepni's former "Big Brother" castmates Jackie Menachem, Nofar Mor, and Lehia Griner. Tzepni had recently attended the wedding of the Adam family in Portofino, Italy.
