In case you were caught lackin' on 10/17, Gucci Mane's wedding went down yesterday, and it was a nigh-royal affair. As one of the most respected artists in the game, Gucci Mane's big day drew in some of hip-hop's prominent names, including Sean “Diddy” Combs, Karrueche Tran, Lil Yachty, 2 Chainz, Zaytoven, Rick Ross, Big Sean, Jhene Aiko, and more. And while many remember Gucci Mane as one of the coldest rappers to ever grace the mic, the rapper has opened up since his release from prison, and there's no denying he looks happier than ever. And why wouldn't he? Things have been going great for Guwop, with two album releases, an autobiography, and now, a beautiful bride.
As you might know, Gucci and Keyshia's wedding was filmed by BET as part of a ten-episode special, which reportedly netted the Davis family $650K. And while pictures of the ceremony have been steady hitting the internet, you can now catch the wedding's biggest moment right here. In the footage, provided by TMZ, Gucci and Keyshia stand at the alter, while Guwop delivers his emotional vows. It's a nice moment in hip-hop history, and serves to emphasize the change in Gucci's lifestyle. Looking back on some of his older videos is almost surreal now.
As Guwop speaks, you can hear the emotion in his voice, but he doesn't shed a tear. He's still Gucci Mane after all. In the footage, Gucci vows to Keyshia that he'll be her "soul mate, best friend, love, and life time partner." He also vows that he will "create an environment [she] will flourish in," and "render every other woman irrelevant, and to always fight for this love." It's a touching moment, and in all honesty, hip-hop could use a little more love sometimes. Once again, big congratulations to the Davis family!
