Influencers Shay Sullivan and Casey Johnson have officially begun their next chapter together with a breathtaking wedding celebration in the heart of Italy.
The couple exchanged vows on July 14 at the historic Castello Di Celsa, a stunning 13th-century villa located just outside Siena, surrounded by 47 of their closest family members and friends. The intimate destination wedding blended old-world Italian charm with modern romance, creating a celebration that reflected the couple’s deep connection and personal style.
For Sullivan, the day represented more than just a beautiful setting, it represented a love story she describes as a dream come true.
A scene that looked straight out of a storybook
The wedding décor embraced a soft, romantic aesthetic, with delicate shades of pink, floral touches, and feminine details woven throughout the celebration. One of the couple’s most memorable photo moments featured them standing on the villa’s historic staircase, decorated with flowing pink fabric and flowers, creating a scene that looked straight out of a storybook.
A Bridal Look by Kim Kassas
Shay's bridal boudoir shoot was nothing short of iconic and her wedding style perfectly matched the dreamy atmosphere of the Italian venue.

The bride walked down the aisle wearing a stunning gown by Kim Kassas, featuring sparkling silver embellishments across the bodice that added a touch of glamour while maintaining an elegant bridal feel.
Her hair was styled into a sophisticated sweeping updo by the team at Don Pelli Hair, completing her timeless wedding-day look.
In a personal touch, Sullivan revealed that she handled her own makeup for the ceremony, a decision that made the moment even more meaningful.
