Shortly before the loved-up pair exchanged their vows in front of 140 guests, the happy groom blurted out: '''F*** me, does she not look insane?''
The groom's shocking comment in the clip highlighted just how jaw-dropping the partner looked in an intricate lace gown featuring a low-cut fitted corset.
After the remark, the attendees erupted into laughter, breaking into applause and cheers.
As his bride waved to the their friends and family, James, from Australia, can be seen wiping away tears.
''Everyone take a deep breath... today is the day that's going to live in our hearts and our memory,'' the marriage celebrant said.
Antonia shared the footage on her TikTok page, with the caption: ''Aussies in the middle of their elegant Italian ceremony.''
The short clip has been viewed more than 507,000 times - with viewers left divided over the groom's remarks.
''I would die of embarrassment,'' one said.
''That ruined the classy moment,'' another chimed in.
''He's nervous, he blurted out what he was thinking - kinda cute,'' one suggested.

''I would be mortified,'' someone else thought.
Some took particular issue with the groom for his ''disrespectful'' choice of words.
''Why the foul language?'' one wondered.
However, many saw the funny side as they agreed with the Aussie entrepreneur, with one saying: ''She absolutely does look stunning. Valid as f***. Congratulations.''
Why it's time to ditch wedding favours once and for all
By Josie Griffiths, Deputy Digital Fabulous Editor and bride-to-be
Josie Griffiths said: When was the last time you spotted something in a shop window or browsed past it online and thought 'that would be the perfect gift for 120 of my closest friends, work colleagues, relatives and boyfriend's mate's partners I barely know'?
I'll tell you when, never, because there is NO universal gift everyone is going to love - unless you want to bankrupt yourself buying Rolexes and Tiffany jewellery, and even then they wouldn't be to everyone's taste.
So why do brides still pile the stress (and expense) of wedding favours on top of everything else we have to organise?
I've been to dozens of weddings over the past five years so when I got engaged, I already had a mental list of dos and don'ts for my own big day, and ditching wedding favours was firmly on it.
The cost of buying an individual present for everyone coming is huge, meaning many couples try and keep it in the under-a-fiver category.
But the reality is no-one wants a cheap, ill-thought-out keepsake - they'd probably rather one more free drink from the bar.
It's not only that, wedding handbags are notoriously small, with no room to stuff an unexpected gift in, and catering waiters have a bad habit of whisking away the wedding favours when they're clearing the coffee mug off the tables.
I bet none of my guests will even notice the lack of random gift on their dining table.
If you really hate the idea of not buying something for your guests, charity donations are always a nice gesture.
But the last thing your friends and family need is more random tat cluttering up their homes - so it's time to save them the guilt of binning your Etsy-bought keyring.
''When he said that in front of everyone, I started laughing but I know that he loves you,'' another shared.
''Can't get more Aussie than this - and yes she does look insane,'' one said, laughing as she agreed with how gorgeous the bride looked.
''He's not wrong,'' another added.
Back in June, it was reported that the couple's lavish European wedding cost more than $1million (£866k), Mail Online said.
The couple looked absolutely besotted with each other as they happily danced after the ceremony, while guests clapped along.
The fun didn't end there either, with the newlyweds later hoisted into the air on chairs inside the villa's ballroom and celebratory firework show.
James is the son of world poker champ Joe Hachem, while Antonia is a social media influencer and content creator who boasts 214,000 followers on Instagram and a further 195,000 on TikTok.

Craig Revel Horwood in awkward row with livid TV presenter as fans criticise ‘melt down'
Strictly Come Dancing judge Craig Revel Horwood was at the centre of an awkward row after criticising a Dancing with the Stars contestant live on air in the Aussie version of the show Craig Revel Horwood was at the centre of an awkward row with a livid TV presenter on Dancing with the Stars. The Strictly Come Dancing judge, 60, is currently dishing out the cutthroat style that he has become known for as he critiques the celebrities taking part in Dancing with the Stars in Australia, he was met with some backlash after he labelled Osher Gunsberg's Tango a "right royal mess" in the most recent episode. Upon hearing the comments, the former Bachelorette Australia host fired back: "Would you like to try going down that perspex ramp in those heels, sir? You are more than welcome to show me how to do it." But typically, Craig retorted: "That is not my job." But Craig continued to criticise, as he labelled the dance 'completely erratic' and accused the TV star of 'making mistakes' everywhere. Osher, who was partnered with professional dancer Sriani Argaet, replied: "But I need you to be doing it in a tango step while the person next to you is on one foot, kicking, and you're holding their momentum against you. After you." After Craig dismissed that suggestion as something they could do 'some other time', the video went viral on social media after broadcast and fans were quick to call out the on-air 'melt down'. One viewer wrote on X: "You got a low score Osher because you argued with the judges and were arrogant. Just take the feed back and be humble," and another said: "Osher is kinda annoying stop fighting with the judges." A third viewer ranted: "WTF was that attitude from Osher? The judges are there to give you constructive criticism, you think you danced amazingly and you just didn't, mate. Check your ego bro." A fourth said: "Thank goodness Osher's out. He was voted to stay the first couple of weeks due to his popularity, but the man can't dance," and a fifth said: "Osher seems to have trouble accepting reality, he's just a bad dancer". However, another fan was more sympathetic towards the TV host and instead took issue with Craig, as they wrote: "I dont think Osher has ever said he could dance. He is giving it a go and Craig is just downright rude." Osher and Srianri received a total score of 15 for the episode, and he was eliminated from the competition at the end of the episode. Speaking out after the viral incident had taken place, Osher claimed that Craig was doing his job as the 'baddie judge' with his negative comments but insisted that he had tried 'really hard' during the show. Speaking to Yahoo Lifestyle, he added: "But at the same time, I worked my a** off and I tried really hard. I was never going to be a technically perfect person at it, but it was like, come on, man! If you're going to critique me, give it a shot yourself and let's see what happens! I thought it was pretty fun! "Don't get me wrong, his critique is not without warrant. He has fair points. I watched the show, I know he wasn't inventing it. It was just an opportunity to kind of play with that dynamic and see what would happen," he continued. Osher's exit from the show leaves KIIS network presenter Brittany Hockley, actress Felicity Ward, Olympian Harry Garside, Home & Away actor Kyle Shinning, social media influencer Mia Fevola, newsreader Michael Usher, comedian Shaun Micallef, and former AFL star Trent Cotchin all vying to be crowned champion of this year's series. On the Australian iteration of the programme, Craig judges alongside former professional Sharna Burgess, Helen Richie and Mark Wilson. Earlier this year, Craig, who sits among judges Shirley Ballas, Anton Du Beke, and Motsi Mabuse, on Strictly Come Dancing in the UK, claimed that the show's continued success was down to him as he is an original member of the panel. Craig adopted the role of Mr Nasty since the show first aired back in 2004 and by his own admission during a recent interview he enjoys playing the villain. The TV judge who prides himself on being harsh with his comments to the professional dancers and their celebrity contestants, said: "There is no other judge. I created it. They are either dead or have been sacked." He added in his interview with The Sun: "I get booed heavily but I enjoy playing the villain." Craig has been on the BBC show for 21 years.

Love Island's controversial star Harrison sparks fix row as he shares big villa secret
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island has been hit with fresh 'fix' claims after controversial star Harrison Solomon was caught spilling behind-the-scenes secrets in a fan-recorded TikTok. In the viral video, Harrison, 22, is approached inside a London Boots branch by a fan who recognises him and immediately grills him about the show. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Love Island's Harrison Solomon has been caught spilling behind-the-scenes secrets in a fan-recorded TikTok Credit: Tiktok/@ifoundsmokez He says in disbelief: 'I swear you're the guy from Love Island, innit? There is no way,' before diving into questions about Harrison's antics on the show. The admirer adds: 'Mad guy innit? Bouncing between two gyal and them things there. But you know what? I rate it though.' Harrison, who found himself at the centre of a love triangle in the villa, responds: 'Appreciate that man… Lauren was one of the gyal in the triangle, man. And I chose Lauren. Now I'm back home.' When asked what the villa is 'really like' behind the scenes, Harrison - joined by 26-year-old Lauren Wood - replies: 'Bro it's crazy… challenges, everything, all sorts man. Drama every day.' The fan presses on, asking whether the drama is genuine or played up for the cameras. Harrison insists: 'Yeah, it's real. It's real. Mad.' But it's his next comment that's raised eyebrows among viewers. Harrison admits: 'They'll like put people together and stuff like that to have conversations and stuff like that.' The fan then chimes in with: 'I know one of the Love Islanders, they told me like, yo they'll tell you like, cool, just bless you with that person.' Harrison replies: 'Yeah yeah yeah. They'll say that shit. Fair enough.' The clip sparked speculation that producers may be manipulating scenes for entertainment. Love Island's Harrison and Lauren cosy up on romantic double date with villa couple just days after his shock show exit In response, a Love Island spokesperson told The Sun: 'I think it's worth pointing out that he says twice in that clip that the drama is real himself. "For guidance, the opinions the Islanders have, decisions they make and the relationships formed are completely within the control of the Islanders themselves. "What is shown is an accurate representation of villa life.' Harrison decided to quit the show in a surprise move after Lauren was dumped from the villa. Lauren begged him to go with her, but he said he wanted to sleep on it. The following day, Harrison announced to the Islanders that he was leaving the process. Harrison and Lauren had sex while in the villa together, which caused divided opinions among viewers. Upon his exit, Harrison was asked how he felt about his mum and dad knowing what he had done on television. He said: 'I hope they didn't see. But listen, it was a natural thing. 'I don't think I intended to have sex in the villa, but in there all the Islanders could tell we were so attracted to each other. 'Naturally, it was going to happen. 'The spark between us was crazy. 'I probably wasn't thinking about my parents and them watching it, but it naturally happened and I don't regret it.' The controversial Islander was then slammed for his "scripted" apology after he appeared on Aftersun on Sunday. Harrison said he felt the point that his romancing of both girls went too far was after he'd slept with Lauren. "I think maybe when we did bits," he said. "Probably took it a little bit too far talking to Toni after that. "I obviously regret that massively and I apologise to both the girls but, yeah, it wasn't good for me." He then said if he had his time again he would have had up front conversations with Toni and Lauren earlier to save them getting upset. But viewers weren't buying his latest apology, with one writing on X: "Harrison has CLEARLY wrote a speech and memorised it this is not genuine." Another said: "Harrison has gotten away with what he's done way too easily." A third posted: "Harrison's not sorry for sh*t." A fourth said: "Is anyone buying this with Harrison? "I'm glad no one clapped at Harrison's poor excuse of an apology." Love Island continues tonight at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX. 5 In the viral video, Harrison is approached inside a London Boots branch by a fan Credit: Tiktok/@ifoundsmokez 5 Harrison decided to quit the show in a surprise move after Lauren was dumped from the villa Credit: Shutterstock Editorial 5 Harrison drew criticism for his behaviour from charity Women's Aid Credit: Shutterstock Editorial

I've lost 5 stone in 6 months on Mounjaro - but now I'm unable to do this common beauty ritual
A woman who lost five stone in six months after taking Mounjaro has shared the negative effects of the rapid weight loss - including being unable to perform one very common beauty ritual. Emilly Jane, from Liverpool, has racked up an impressive 70,000 combined followers on TikTok and Instagram after sharing details of her weight loss while on Mounjaro. She is pleased with her progress, and regularly posts 'before and after' pictures comparing herself prior to losing weight and now - after shedding more than 11 stone, or close to 70 kg. But Emilly told her followers there are downsides to the drug that 'no one talks about'. In a candid video, she said: 'I've lost 11 st 4 lbs and I've lost 5 st 2 lbs of that in 28 weeks on Mounjaro. 'Number one is: your brain doesn't catch up with how others are seeing you. 'So, it's taken my head a lot longer to accept that that's me. I still look at pictures and think "Oh my goodness, who's that?"' It's true that people who experience rapid weight loss in a relatively short time period struggle to adjust to the social conventions of their new weight. On top of this, looking so drastically different can create dissonance between how people perceive themselves, and how they actually look and are treated. 'It's very, very strange and hard to navigate,' continued Emilly, before moving on to the next after effect. 'I am now visible to other people,' she said. 'Certain types of people as well, and I don't like it.' Likely alluding to men who display a romantic interest in her, Emilly joked: 'I would like an invisibility cloak back, please, which is what I had when I was bigger. 'I don't like it. Stop looking at me and interacting with me - I am socially awkward.' A surprising item on Emilly's cons list was her sudden inability to perform a very common beauty ritual - shaving her underarms. 'I can no longer shave my armpits with ease,' she said. 'If you see red marks under my arms in my pictures and videos, just mind your business.' Although it sounds unusual underarms typically become hollow or concave after weight loss, making it much harder to find a smooth surface to shave on. Those who have gone from overweight to comparatively skinny have actually reported more difficulty shaving in other areas after they become bonier - like the knees and ankles. Emilly said: 'Having loose skin makes it really, really difficult to set a "goal" and feel "happy" at a "goal weight". It's a nightmare.' She said people now comment on her weight more than they ever have in her life. Fed up with the interference, she added: 'Apparently, it's up to everybody else to choose a goal for me and tell me that it's time to stop.' Of her new-found boniness, Emilly said: 'Lying in the bath is no longer comfortable. There appears to be hard things that stick into the bath. I don't like it.' Lastly, the Mounjaro-user noted the vast amounts she spends on clothing, only to render them unwearable by shedding even more weight, and being unsure how to dress herself. 'I still have a mental breakdown every time I get dressed because I've got no identity,' she said. 'I don't know what to wear. I don't know what I can and can't wear, and it's very confusing. 'If you're thinking about starting Mounjaro or you're on a Mounjaro journey, make sure you assess all these things first.' Weight loss drugs have long since been a topic of conversation, but since 'fat jabs' like Ozempic and Mounjaro came on the scene, talk of diet methods has been swirling online. And although the efficacy of natural routes has been called into question, many traditionalists believe taking injections to lose weight is 'cheating' or 'lazy'. A woman who lost four stone without the help of any weight loss drugs has insisted that 'volume eating' is the way to go. Ashleigh Wilson shared her full plate of lunch that included chicken flatbread with vegetables on TikTok, insisting she'd feel 'sickly full' after it. But the 26-year-old from Blackpool claimed that despite the meal being large in size, it was low in calories. The respectable volume also meant that she 'will not be going to that snack cupboard' later as she will not be feeling peckish. The influencer, who once weighed 15st 8lbs, said: 'So I've now lost four stone and if anybody asks me how I did that, I always talk about volume eating. 'This whole plate is 398 calories and just over 40 grams of protein. It's just chicken flatbread and veggies. 'So beetroot, cucumber, tomato, onion and then some chicken breast I seasoned and chopped up and put over it. I will eat this and I will probably feel sickly full after it. 'However, best believe I will not be going to that snack cupboard, and I'll be fine, more than fine, until dinner time. If you want to lose weight, start with volume eating.'
