TikTok stars Hamzat Habeeb Adelaja, popularly known as Peller, and Amadou Elizabeth Aminata, known as Jarvis, have expressed gratitude to their fans, friends and well-wishers after their highly publicised wedding celebrations.
Following their lavish ceremony, the lovebirds broke their silence with a heartfelt message following a ceremony that captivated Nigeria’s entertainment and social media space.
In a joint post shared on their Instagram page, the newlyweds expressed gratitude to everyone who celebrated with them, offered prayers and supported their journey to marriage.
“Our hearts are full. Thank you to everyone who celebrated, prayed, and shared in our joy. God bless you all!.”
The message came shortly after the couple’s lavish wedding on Saturday, August 1, which drew a host of celebrities, content creators, influencers and supporters, making it one of the biggest social events in Nigeria’s digital entertainment scene this year. Their expression of gratitude quickly resonated with fans, who flooded the comment section with congratulatory messages and prayers for a successful marriage.
The wedding marked the culmination of months of public anticipation. Peller and Jarvis had openly documented their journey to the altar, keeping millions of followers updated through livestreams, social media posts and behind-the-scenes content. Their relationship, which blossomed in the public eye, has remained one of the most talked-about among Nigeria’s new generation of digital creators.
Before the white wedding, the couple had already completed several important milestones. They held their traditional marriage ceremony in Benin City, where Peller fulfilled the customary rites, including the payment of Jarvis’ bride price, in the presence of both families.
The pair also formalised their union through a civil wedding on Wednesday, July 29, before proceeding to the church ceremony, completing the legal requirements ahead of their grand celebration.
As part of the build-up to the wedding, the couple shared elegant pre-wedding photographs and announced plans to livestream the event to accommodate their large online fan base. Their preparations also attracted attention after prominent personalities, including Pastor Tobi Adegboyega, presented them with gifts, including cows for the wedding celebration.
The event itself reflected the couple’s influence within Nigeria’s entertainment industry, attracting celebrities, influencers and fellow content creators who turned out to celebrate with them. Images and videos from the ceremony quickly dominated social media,
Peller, who rose from creating online comedy content to becoming one of Nigeria’s most recognised TikTok personalities and livestreamers, has previously spoken about his decision to marry at a relatively young age. According to him, settling down was partly inspired by his determination to break what he described as a recurring family pattern, a revelation that sparked conversations across social media.
The content creator also disclosed plans for an elaborate honeymoon expected to span eight countries, including the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom and Canada, further fuelling excitement among fans eager to follow the next chapter of the couple’s journey.
Despite the celebration surrounding their union, Peller and Jarvis have also faced persistent criticism throughout their relationship. Some social media users questioned whether the pair were emotionally prepared for marriage, while others argued that the relationship had been overly publicised because of their online careers.
The criticism, however, did little to slow the couple’s momentum. Undeterred by the criticisms, the lovebirds continued to share milestones with their followers, reinforcing the close connection they have built with millions of supporters over the years.
From their engagement to their traditional marriage, civil ceremony and eventual white wedding, Peller and Jarvis have transformed personal milestones into moments that resonated across Nigeria’s digital landscape. Their latest message of appreciation now serves as their first public reaction after the star-studded celebration, signalling the beginning of a new chapter together.
