In a lavish multi-day celebration that drew millions of views online, TikTok influencer Becca Bloom (real name Rebecca Ma) married software engineer David Pownall at Villa Balbiano on Lake Como, Italy, on August 28.

Bloom wore a stunning Oscar de la Renta gown embroidered with laser-cut peonies for the ceremony, and accessorised with high jewellery pieces from Van Cleef & Arpels – and her Tiffany Victoria wedding ring, of course. Pownall complemented her in a chic Thom Browne suit.
