All the details from Aussie model Shanina Shaik's really, really stunning Bahamas wedding.

Standing on the exact patch of sand where they got engaged, Aussie supermodel Shanina Shaik said ‘I do’ to her husband Gregory ‘DJ Ruckus’ Andrews on the island of Eleuthera in the Bahamas on Saturday.

The couple who had their meet cute at Coachella in 2015 dated for just eight months before the popular DJ proposed to her during a Christmas holiday to his mother’s native Bahamas.

Over a three-day celebration, the 27-year-old Victoria’s Secret model married her 34-year-old fiancé in front of family and friends in a beach side ceremony.

And the photos taken by wedding photographer Sara Lobla are really, really stunning.

From her Aussie-designed rehearsal dinner dress and custom rose diamond wedding bands to the idyllic private island resort where the couple got married, here are all the details from Shanina Shaik’s wedding.

Because taking a reprieve from daily life and imagining what it’d be like to be lovely, rich and in love is oddly therapeutic.

Shanina Shaik’s wedding dresses

Shanina wore three very different white dresses for her three-day wedding celebration.

For the Friday night rehearsal dinner, Brides reports she wore a long-sleeved sheer linen white dress and wedges by Aussie label Zimmermann.

Her wedding ceremony dress - a stunning naked (but not nudey) floor-length off-the-shoulder lace dress with a scooped back and long train- was designed by Aussie husband and wife design team, Ralph & Russo.

Shanina then presumably danced her butt off at the reception (evidence above) in a custom white and silver lattice Michael Costello dress - the same brand that designs Jennifer Lopez's and Beyoncé's tour outfits.

Shanina Shaik's wedding hair and makeup

Celebrity makeup artist Rae Morris painted Shanina's face for her wedding day. The result - dewy skin (with her natural freckles poking through), defined brows and a rosy pink lip.

Jennifer Yepez styled Shanina's hair over the wedding weekend. She used Kerastase products Mouse bouffant VIP spray, Eau de Vagues spray and Creme Magistrale to create Shanina's rehearsal dinner braided half-up-half-down look.

For her wedding ceremony, Shanina wore her hair up in a chignon with waved pieces pulled out at the front.

Shanina Shaik's wedding day details

Shanina wore a pair of white, pointed Aquazzura slingback pumps with crystal detailing for the wedding ceremony, and later changed into a more dancing-appropriate pair - baby pink and perspex Jimmy Choo heels - for the reception. The shoes were a wedding gift from a close friend.

To match her hexagon-shaped Lorraine Shwartz engagement ring, the bride had two coordinating wedding bands made by the celebrity jewellery designer.

She also wore matching statement pink diamond drop earrings and a necklace on her wedding day, also by Lorraine Schwartz.

The bridal party

According to Brides, the groom DJ Ruckus wore a Tom Ford tuxedo.

Shanina's ten bridesmaids wore Zimmerman-designed silk dresses, each custom designed collaboratively with Shanina to suit the shape and skin tone of the individual bridesmaids.

The matron of honour Nicole Williams wore a gown by Michael Costello.

The venue

 

The wedding celebrations took place at The Other Side, a beautiful solar powered "Glamping" site on a private and secluded beach on the Bahamian island.

And because no amount of photos of this wedding would ever be too much, here are some other images from Shanina and DJ Ruckus' wedding day.
