Influencer Rachel Dillon and her fitness entrepreneur partner Tobi Pearce tied the knot in a romantic ceremony in Italy earlier this month.
The couple exchanged vows in a secluded garden ceremony, surrounded by their nearest and dearest during a three-day celebration in Ravello on the Amalfi Coast.
However, one notable detail from the big day caught fans’ attention when they commented on one of her bridesmaid’s outfits at the rehearsal dinner.
Australian model Isabelle Mathers faced backlash for wearing an extravagant yellow-colored dress with a long train, but Rachel has now dismissed the criticism.
Taking to TikTok on Wednesday, Rachel emphasized that she was taking a relaxed approach to the wedding dress code and insisted that she specifically approved of Isabelle’s outfit.

‘I understand that some brides have very strict dress codes and colors. That’s a thing now. For me, I wasn’t really phased,” she explained.
‘We obviously had a dress code for the wedding. It was a black tie. But honestly, I thought: just wear what makes you feel good. I’m not someone who is put off by colors or whatever.’
Rachel then directly addressed the reaction to Isabelle’s outfit as she talked about how she “pretty much forced her” to wear all of her wedding outfits.
“The comments about Izzy shouldn’t have carried that, I wouldn’t have approved of that, etcetera, etcetera,” she continued.
“And I just wanted to come out here and let you guys know that I absolutely approved.” Not only did I approve of it, I like the fact that I forced her to wear it.”

Rachel then spoke about all of her bridesmaids – which also included her sister Emma and her friend Soffia Ribotta – and insisted they were all in complete agreement.
“Leading up to the event, I was honestly so blessed to have the most incredible bridesmaids I could have ever asked for,” she shared.
‘We share absolutely everything with each other, down to every outfit, down to every detail.’
Rachel went on to talk about her three-day wedding extravaganza and admitted she wanted to make the most of the occasion after inviting people to fly in for the big day.
In addition to Isabelle, Rachel had her sister Emma and her friend Soffia Ribotta as bridesmaids for her special day
“As you may know, I recently got married in Italy and had a three-day event,” she shared.
‘The reason for that is that you are going to invite people from all over the world. I think you should organize a bit of an event. So it was incredible.”
Of the elaborate celebration, she continued, “We did a welcome dinner, the ceremony, the reception, all that and then we did a recovery day.”
“Honestly, it’s Italy guys. I’m like, we’re in crazy Italy. Let’s just have the best time ever,” she added.
At the time, Rachel and Tobi announced their union by sharing photos of them posing in front of a rose arch after taking vows in front of their loved ones.
