Sting's daughter Fuchsia Kate Sumner looked out of this world in a lace bridal gown as she kissed her groom during their extravagant pre-wedding street bash on Friday.
Fuchsia married her long-time partner Max Wright in a glamorous three-day celebration in the Sicilian town of Noto at the weekend.
The 43-year-old actress and director, who goes by 'Kate', tied the knot with Max, a creative director in the arts and tech space, in front of family and close friends.
New pictures show the nepo baby having the time of her life with her then-fiancé before they tied the knot the morning after.
On day one, guests enjoyed a street party complete with an Italian marching band and tucked into local fare including freshly baked Italian breads and aperitivo.
In the evening, they attended a special performance of Una Serenata! - 'A Serenade' in Italian - at the Teatro Comunale Tina di Lorenzo to celebrate local Sicilian traditions.
Kate wore a white lace mermaid gown by Maison Valentino with a high neck and open back, while Max opted for a terracotta shirt and trousers.
Family in attendance included Sting and his wife Trudie Styler, and Kate's older brother, musician Joe Sumner, 48, who at one point treated guests to live performances on his guitar.
Kate, whose mother is Sting's first wife, the Northern Irish actress Frances Tomelty, was also joined by her half-siblings who are Sting's children with second wife Trudie.
They include actress Mickey, 41 - the maid of honour - musician and actor Eliot, 34, filmmaker Jake, 40, and actor Giacomo, 29.
The next day brought the main event - but not without a near wardrobe disaster. For one of his outfits, Max realised the only shoelaces he had for his £720 beige Prada shoes were black.
With no white laces to hand, a quick-thinking guest - American fashion stylist Erica Cloud - improvised by pulling the string from a shoe bag and threading it through his shoes.
Crisis averted, the wedding ceremony took place and was held outdoors against a crimson and ivory floral backdrop.
Kate wore a beautiful off-the-shoulder embroidered tulle gown with her initials embroidered on, while Max donned a light grey suit.
After they exchanged vows, green and pink smoke flares shot up into the sky as they had their first kiss as husband and wife. The newlyweds then walked through the city with a beaming Kate holding their smartly dressed one-year-old son.
At the reception, Sting delivered a show-stopping speech that was both heartfelt and hilarious. He joked about his early impressions of Max, unsure of what to make of the man after his daughter's heart, but quickly realised he was, in fact, 'a lovely chap'.
Guests were in stitches but also, at times, in tears as the music icon described how happy he was for his daughter to have found the love of her life.
Sister Mickey, who was joined by her new fiance Carter B Smith and her son from her previous marriage to tech CEO Chris Kantrowitz, also gave a speech during the reception - referring to Kate as 'the most beautiful bride'. Kate later described it as 'the best speech ever.'
Her sibling Eliot, whose string of roles in Hollywood films include a security guard in the latest James Bond film, No Time To Die, was joined by their glamorous girlfriend, Mollie Davis.
Eliot, who is non-binary, started dating the divorced mother-of-two last year after splitting from British aristocratic model Frankie Herbert, granddaughter of the 7th Earl of Carnarvon.
Other guests included British film director Charlotte Colbert and her artist husband Philip Colbert, DJ Mia Moretti - who played a late-night set - and music label boss Henri Behrmann.
The dinner, which took place at Dimora delle Balze - the same venue that hosted Italian influencer Chiara Ferragni and Fedez's 2018 wedding - was laid out on candlelit banquet tables.

Guests dined on pasta, ciabatta, fresh fish, lobster and vegetables and toasted the couple underneath elegant fairy lights.
After dinner, they danced late into the night to a soundtrack of Stevie Wonder classics including I Wish and disco favourites.
Day three saw guests enjoy a final day of celebration, starting with 'a master blaster BBQ' to help cure hangovers from the night before. It featured a multi-layered barbeque station with chicken, fresh fruit and vegetables.
Noto Mayor Corrado Figura blessed the festivities, meeting Sting on his arrival in the historic centre.
He posed for a photo with the star, writing on social media: 'It was a great honour to welcome Sting, a global music icon, to the wedding of his daughter Fuschia Katherine Sumner and her partner Maximillian Wright, right here in the heart of Sicilian Baroque.'
The mayor presented Sting with a book dedicated to Noto, calling it 'a small gift to thank him for sharing such an important moment for his family with us.'
He added: 'Thank you to Fuschia, Maximillian and Sting for choosing Noto. Our city is proud to be part of this wonderful love story.'
Kate and Max announced their engagement two years ago and Kate threw her hen party last month - where she and her pals tucked into fried chicken and danced around in wigs.
Friends describe Max as 'low-key, charming and utterly devoted' - a sentiment echoed in speeches throughout the wedding weekend.
