The who’s who of music, fashion and acting descended upon the Sicilian capital of Palermo for the celebration.
In addition to John and the group of DJs, Vanity Fair reported the guest list included Donatella Versace, Charli XCX and her husband, The 1975 drummer George Daniel, Australian Kevin Parker also known as Tame Impala, who worked with Lipa on her most recent album, Mark Ronson and wife Grace Gummer, Troye Sivan, Joe Alwyn and Olivia Dean.
A party that lasted all through the night
When you invite all your friends to Italy, you have to make the most of it – which the couple definitely did with three days’ worth of fun.
Things kicked off with a welcome celebration on June 5, followed by the wedding at Villa Valguarnera on June 6.

At the reception, there was entertainment from an Albanian community group and Kosovo-Albanian singer Besnik Qaka, before a massive fireworks display at 11.30pm.
The party reportedly ran through the night, wrapping up at 6am.
Then, hopefully after getting some sleep, Lipa and Turner joined guests for a post-wedding brunch in Palermo on Sunday.
A controversial spat with locals
The lavish weekend did not go off without a hitch, as locals expressed frustration at how it disrupted their lives.
Friday’s welcome event took place in a public square in Palermo, prompting road closures and security cordons that frustrated some.

Protest posters and graffiti claiming Palermo was “not for rent” and “not for the rich” popped up around the area.
However, Lipa must have foreseen the issues, as The Sun reported she paid $9,400 to residents to compensate for parking inconveniences.
The dress details
Lipa opted for stunning, custom Schiaparelli couture by Daniel Roseberry when she wed Turner in London.
Photos from the big day show the 30-year-old looking radiant in a bridal two-piece made up of a white tailored blazer and matching midi-length skirt, with an enormous, wide-brimmed white hat by Stephen Jones perched atop shining black hair.

For the welcome party, Lipa wore a white sleeveless gown with feathery skirt from Bottega Veneta.
While we are yet to catch a glimpse at her ceremony or reception looks, The Sun reported Lipa wore two gowns over the course of the wedding day – both believed to have been designed by Versace.
