Kourtney Kardashian pulled out all of the stops for her third wedding to husband Travis Barker as she stunned in a one of a kind Dolce & Gabbana bridal look.
The reality star, 43, whose wedding was sponsored by the fashion house, married her rocker beau, 46, in an alfresco ceremony at the medieval Castello Brown fortress in Portofino, Italy, on Sunday.
Kourtney looked nothing short of sensational in the unique D&G white silk lace and satin mini dress and a dramatic hand-embroidered veil.
Beautiful bride: Kourtney Kardashian pulled out all of the stops for her third wedding to husband Travis Barker as she stunned in a one of a kind Dolce & Gabbana bridal look
According to details shared on the D&G Instagram page, the show stopping dress took inspiration from the iconic figures of the Italian lingerie and la dolce vita.
It explained how Kourtney’s corset enhanced her silhouette thanks rich design and exquisite cuts, with expert tailoring techniques to emphasize her femininity.
Her trailing veil which was complete with floral lace appliqué was inspired by the flowers of the Portofino gardens, while it also featured a hand-embroidered with a large depiction of the Virgin Mary and the words ‘family loyalty respect.’
The embroidery used the cross stich technique and the words are a nod to Travis’ tattoo, which is a symbol of ‘alliance, respect and common devotion’.

The look was completed by tulle gloves and white lace pumps.
The beautiful bride wore her jet black tresses swept back in an elegant up do and she opted for a glamorous makeup look.
While Kourtney stole the show in her quirky wedding look, Travis looked handsome by her side in a double-breasted jacket with peaked lapels.
He teamed it with classic trousers with pressed crease and side-band, both in ‘superfine Italian black wool with tuxedo details in black silk satin’.
His look was bespoke and the materials and attention to detail aimed to create the perfect fit for the Blink 182 star.
Travis’ canvas and horsehair jacket is entirely hand-worked and strictly followed all of the rules of Italian sartorial tradition.
The lining of the garment was fitted with black silk satin, while he finished the ensemble with a black silk satin bow-tie, a golden cross brooch with black crystals and creeper-style shoes.

The lavish showbiz wedding’s sponsorship by luxury fashion house Dolce & Gabbana was previously revealed by MailOnline on Sunday.
Members of the Kardashian and Jenner clans have been repeatedly photographed in expensive Dolce & Gabbana outfits in the run up to the ceremony.
The worldwide coverage of the reality stars showcasing the brand’s clothes against the idyllic backdrop of the Italian Riviera is set to give millions of pounds worth of free publicity to the brand, which has been hit by controversies in recent years.
As part of the deal, guests were ferried from their hotels to Portofino harbour late in a fleet of four classic wooden Riva speedboats, furnished with Dolce & Gabbana accessories including animal print cushions and towels.

Guests walked a short distance into a tunnel in a nearby hillside where they will be able to access a lift to carry them up to the spectacular fortress where the ceremony took place.
MailOnline revealed that the Italian fashion house has been closely involved in organising every aspect of the lavish wedding celebrations which has been described as the ‘showbiz event of the year’.
Staff from the company’s base in Milan were sent to the resort in the lead up to the day to oversee preparations, and have been put up in local hotels.
Kourtney and heavily tattooed drummer Travis have also been staying on the superyacht Regina d’Italia which is believed to be owned by Stefano Gabbana, the co-founder of Dolce & Gabbana.

The yacht has been conveniently anchored offshore next to Portofino, just a short boat ride from Castello Brown and a neighbouring house which have been hired for the celebrations.
Staff carrying black bags and cases emblazoned with the name Dolce & Gabbana were spotted making their way into the medieval castle, with spectacular views over the Mediterranean.
Several clothes in suit bags, labelled as being for Travis, were conveniently pictured next to a Dolce & Gabbana shopping bag before being carried up a steep garden path into the rented house as preparations continued on Friday.
A member of staff at the shop, earlier smiled when a MailOnline reporter asked about the brand’s link up with the Kardashians, saying: ‘They are friends of the house’.

Asked about the Kardashians staying on his boss’s lavishly furnished 213ft yacht worth around £50million, he added with a grin: ‘He loves to have guests’.
Dolce & Gabbana has not officially responded to requests from Mailonline to explain the sponsorship deal for the wedding.
The lavish European ceremony was the third time that mother-of-three Kourtney and Travis have got ‘married’.
The couple had their first small wedding in Los Angeles after the Grammys last month and legally tied the knot last Sunday in Santa Barbara, California.
Kourtney was unsurprisingly seen in a Dolce & Gabbana wedding dress in black and white pictures of her big day which she released after the intimate Santa Barbara ceremony.

The Kardashians and Jenners have made very public displays of support for Dolce & Gabbana in recent days by wearing the brand’s clothes in the run up to the wedding.
Some of the clothes have been vintage items which would have been hard to source, according to fashion industry insiders.
Kourtney and Travis shared their first photos as newlyweds with their Instagram followers earlier this week.

Less than 24 hours after legally tying the knot in Santa Barbara, the reality star posted a slideshow of black and white photos from their big day.
‘Till death do us part,’ the mother-of-four captioned the snaps, featuring her straddling her spouse on top of a black convertible with ‘just married’ on the bumper before getting into the car and sharing a passionate kiss.
Travis posted an identical caption and same images of their big day as they announced the news to their fans and loved ones.

The lovebirds, who became engaged in October 2021, exchanged vows with a small number of loved ones and their security, including her maternal grandmother Mary Jo ‘MJ’ Campbell and Travis’ dad Randy, at the weekend.
After getting hitched, the reality star and drummer were seen driving off in a vintage car.
For her big day, the mother-of-three was seen wearing a short white dress with a plunging neckline and red heart adorned on the bodice and a traditional veil over her dark tresses, which were pulled back for the occasion.
Wild PDAs, IVF struggles, and THREE weddings: A look back at Kravis’ whirlwind romance history
They’re saying ‘I do’ for a third time this weekend in Portofino, Italy in front of a close circle of family and friends. Here, DailyMail.com takes a look back at the three weddings, wild PDAs, IVF struggles and whirlwind romance of Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker…
Travis’ first Kardashian crush on Kim
Having been a friend of the family for years, Travis Barker first showed his interest in the KarJenner clan when he confessed to first being attracted to Kim Kardashian – not Kourtney – back when she was an assistant to Paris Hilton around 2006.
‘How could you not stare at Kim? Mind you, I enjoyed hanging out with Paris, but I love curvy girls,’ Travis admitted in 2015. ‘Kim was eye candy. I was no way disrespectful to Paris, but I couldn’t keep my eyes off Kim!’
Travis went on to say he spent time with Kim in their Calabasas neighborhood and while he had a ‘crush’ on her, he said ‘nothing ever happened.’

Getting to know the family
Travis then made several appearances on Keeping Up with the Kardashians while he was still married to ex-wife Shanna Moakler, cementing his status as a true Kardashian family friend.
His daughter Alabama revealed in October 2017 that she had been bonding with the Kardashians, along with her father, though she did not specifically mention Kourtney.
‘Actually, the other night I had dinner with all of them and they were really sweet,’ she said at the time. Travis shares Alabama and a son Landon with his ex Moakler, who he was married to from 2004 to 2008.

Dating rumors
Kourtney and Travis first sparked romance rumors when they were spotted on what appeared to be a date together in 2018 Los Angeles.
For their evening out, the duo attended an evening service at the famed celebrity Hillsong Church, and then later went out for a vegan dinner at Crossroads where they dined with Kourtney’s pal Larsa Pippen.
At the time, Kourtney had broken up with French model Younes Bendjima just a few months before.

From friends to lovers
Their relationship was confirmed in January 2021 after growing closer during the pandemic, as Kourtney recently revealed she made the first move while the pair were enjoying a friendly movie night together.
‘I was definitely always attracted to Travis. I think it was just the right time in my life,’ she said on the show this year, adding: ‘We were texting and I put it out there, like flirtatious conversation.’
After Travis failed to make a move and went to put on a second movie for them to watch, Kourtney took action: ‘I was like, “I don’t have time for this movie marathon,’” so I made the first move.’

PDA power couple
‘Kravis’ became Instagram official for Valentines in February 2021 with Kourtney posting a picture of the pair holding hands, but that was just the start of the wild PDAs that followed. By April, Travis posted a blurry snap of them making out, while they later revealed their signature move on Kourtney straddling the Blink 182 drummer in the Utah desert.
Their PDAs reached a fever pitch in August last year, when Scott Disick reached out to her ex Younes Bendjima on Instagram after seeing Kourtney straddle Travis on a gondola. He later apologized.
They made their red carpet debut at the VMAs in September last year, and their display of tongue-kissing for the cameras set the tone for many more PDA-heavy events including this year’s Met Gala.

IVF struggles
While the couple’s romance has seen many highs, Kourtney has revealed they’ve also faced heartbreak as she’s struggled to have a child with Travis.
In an episode of the Kardashians, Kourt confessed their doctor had taken them down ‘this road of doing IVF’ saying ‘it hasn’t been the most amazing experience.’
The reality star is mother to Mason, 12; Penelope, nine; and Reign, seven — with her former partner Scott Disick, whom she dated from 2005 until 2015.
A romantic proposal
Travis popped the question in October to Kourtney, whisking her away to a beach in Montecito, California, as the special moment was captured for the Kardashians Hulu reality show.
Later, it was revealed there was drama as Kris Jenner made the call not to include Kourtney’s children in the happy moment – which resulted in her daughter Penelope becoming upset.
‘I woke up all night thinking it was a dream,’ Kourtney gushed on Instagram at the time.

Three weddings
Not content with just one ceremony, Kravis kicked things off with a drunken Las Vegas wedding in April this year after partying at the Grammy Awards. But the wedding was void as it was revealed the loved-up couple did not have the correct paperwork.
In the run up to their big wedding in Italy, Kravis legally tied the knot in Santa Barbara in May with her grandmother Mary Jo “MJ” Campbell present, as well as Travis’ father Randy Barker. The pair drove off in a vintage lowrider convertible with a ‘Just Married’ sign.
However, the couple really pulled out the stops for their big bash in Portofino renting out an entire castle for their family and friends. The pair chose the historic house museum Castello Brown located on a hill above Portofino harbour for their official big celebration.
