Yiyang graced the aisle in an ethereal white gown adorned with delicately woven flowers and a flowing train that trailed like stardust, an embodiment of grace and quiet power.
Later, she dazzled guests in a figure-hugging, mermaid-style purple dress, echoing the wedding’s galaxy-inspired theme of golds and violets.
Tao, ever the dashing groom, complemented her radiance in a sharply tailored ivory suit that reflected both timeless elegance and star-like luminosity.
There were over 16 million fans tuning in online, their wedding was a breathtaking blend of fantasy, humor, and heart, proof that even amidst grandeur, genuine love still shines brightest.
Who is EXO: The K-Pop Legacy That Shaped Tao’s Journey
Before stepping into the spotlight as a groom, Huang Zitao first rose to fame as a member of EXO, one of South Korea’s most influential boy groups under SM Entertainment. Debuting in 2012, EXO quickly gained international acclaim for their polished performances and powerful concepts centered on unity and strength.
Tao, known as EXO’s martial arts prodigy, captured hearts with his stage charisma and distinct flair. Though he left the group in 2015 to pursue solo endeavors in China, his time with EXO laid the foundation for his artistry, discipline, and passion for performance.
Interestingly, his bride Xu Yiyang also trained under SM Entertainment years later, linking their love story to the same creative legacy that once shaped Tao’s career.
While none of EXO’s former Chinese members could attend the wedding due to schedules and circumstances, fans fondly reminisced about the group’s enduring bond, a reminder that EXO’s influence continues to echo, not only in music but in the meaningful chapters of its members’ lives.
