Deviating from traditional wedding norms, Usher and Jenn Goicoechea recently tied the knot in an intimate ceremony that caught the eye of the fashion-forward and the traditionalist alike.
Usher and Jenn Goicoechea recently tied the knot in a small Las Vegas wedding ceremony and chose outfits that are not seen in most weddings, creating a buzz on social media.
Usher looked dapper in his ensemble, sporting a half-black half-white Dolce & Gabbana deconstructed tuxedo, black pants, black gloves, and dark sunglasses. However, it was Goicoechea’s choice of attire that stole the spotlight.
The bride turned heads in a striking white off-shoulder pantsuit, and a distinctive pair of gloves adorned with nails. Complementing her look, Goicoechea donned dark sunglasses with white borders.

Critics of Goicoechea’s fashion choices were quick to voice their opinions online. “Odd fashion, can’t see their eyes, gloves and all,” one person wrote. “Nails on gloves… I’ve never seen it til now,” another shared. “Congratulations! But gloves with nails is weird to me,” a third echoed. Others also expressed, “Not loving the outfit” and “I just don’t get it.”
However, not all feedback was negative. Some onlookers left positive remarks on the internet, including “She look good & fashionable [sic],” “Her outfit is cute,” and “They look amazing.”
The wedding itself was a reflection of the couple’s unique path together, coming shortly after Usher’s performance at the Super Bowl halftime show. They exchanged vows in Las Vegas Weddings’ drive-thru tunnel, The Fast Lane, highlighting their penchant for the untraditional.
