If you thought the Crazy Rich Asians wedding scene was epic, well, wait till you see the Italian version of it - fashion blogger and entrepreneur Chiara Ferragni's extravagant nuptials held over the weekend.
The IT girl, who has over 14 million followers on her Instagram, a footwear collection and The Blonde Salad website she's most known for under her name, wed Italian rapper Fedex in an elaborate celebration in a 19th-century palazzo in Noto, Sicily, Italy. The extravaganza kicked off with a lavish rehearsal dinner the day before at the historic Noto Bassi di Palazzo Nicolaci in Noto's city centre, in Southeastern Sicily.

The bride donned a glittery Prada cocktail dress for the occasion.
The outdoor wedding ceremony itself was set at the bucolic Dimora Delle Balze, a gorgeous restored 19th-century building nestled in the countryside.

And the bride wore Dior.
Dior's Creative director Maria Grazia Chiuri created a custom Grace Kelly-inspired piece for Ferragni, with three quarter-sleeved crochet lace jumpsuit overlayed with a gossamery tulle A-line skirt. To top it off: A long simple veil, natural makeup and her hair in an elegant low chignon. The groom was sharp in Versace.

Ferragni turned to Alberta Ferretti (in collaboration with Eco-Age) for her bridal party's feminine silk dresses in a pretty pastel pink, and created from eco-friendly material.

The second outfit of the night: Another custom Dior Haute Couture piece, this time in a light almond hue and embroidered with lyrics from a song Fedez wrote when proposing to her. It also bore motifs that held meaning to the couple: a lion in tribute to their son Leo, drawings of the places that define their relationship and even the wedding date on the straps where the Dior logo would usually go.
