Dua Lipa's Lavish Wedding Weekend in Sicily: A Star-Studded Affair
Dua Lipa, known for her cool-girl style, recently tied the knot with her longtime love, Callum Turner, in an intimate civil ceremony at Old Marylebone Town Hall in London. Dua wore a sleek white Schiaparelli Couture skirtsuit designed by Daniel Roseberry for the occasion. The couple then planned a lavish wedding weekend at Villa Valguarnera in Bagheria, Sicily, near Palermo, Italy, from June 5-7, following their town hall ceremony.
The wedding location was chosen after Dua and Callum vacationed in Palermo, Sicily, last summer. They booked the luxurious Villa Igiea, a Rocco Forte Hotel, for their guests to stay together and celebrate privately. The three-day celebration included welcome drinks at Palazzo Valguarnera Gangi on June 5, where Dua wore a stunning white dress with a feather train by Bottega Veneta. The main event is set to take place at Villa Valguarnera on June 6, an 18th-century baroque estate in Bagheria.
Dua and Callum, who have connections with A-listers like Elton John, Rosé and Jennie of BLACKPINK, Donatella Versace, and Simon Porte Jacquemus, are expected to have a star-studded guest list of around 200 attendees. Notable guests like Charli xcx, George Daniel, Mark Ronson, Grace Gummer, Troye Sivan, and Joe Alwyn have already arrived in Palermo for the celebration.
Initially planned for September 5-7, the wedding weekend was later moved up to the first weekend of June. Speculation is rife that Dua may wear a custom Atelier Versace wedding gown, given her close relationship with Donatella Versace. Details about her bridal attire remain scarce, but fans believe she may have already celebrated her bridal shower earlier this month in a sparkling minidress reminiscent of one worn by Kate Moss in 1995.
In conclusion, Dua Lipa and Callum Turner's wedding weekend in Sicily promises to be a luxurious and star-studded affair, with the couple celebrating their love in style surrounded by family and friends.
