Shay Zehavi's Wedding Dress Sparks Controversy at Omer Adam and Sasha's Ceremony in Portofino

The wedding of Israeli singer Omer Adam and Sasha began with a welcome party in Portofino, Italy, where guests were asked to dress in festive, colorful attire. Among the attendees were former footballer Eran Zehavi and his wife Shay Zehavi, who shared photos of their outfits on Instagram. However, Shay Zehavi's light blue dress, designed by fashion designer Oria Azran, sparked a wave of criticism online. Some followers accused her of wearing a dress too close to white, traditionally reserved for the bride, with comments such as "Who comes to a wedding in a dress like that? Are you the bride?" and "How much audacity, stealing the spotlight from the bride." The backlash highlighted sensitivities around wedding attire and the expectation not to overshadow the bride.

The main wedding event is set to take place today at a historic 14th-century monastery in Portofino, a popular and luxurious venue. The dress code for the ceremony requests men to wear suits and women to wear evening dresses, explicitly excluding black. Organizers hope the dress code will prevent further controversies among guests' fashion choices.
