Hailey Bieber wore a custom Vera Wang gown and trainers while partying the night away at her wedding to Justin Bieber.

Having wed in a private ceremony last year, the model and the singer celebrated their marriage with a second wedding ceremony last month.

A few days ago, Hailey revealed the custom, lace, off-shoulder gown she wore for the second ceremony, designed by Off-White founder Virgil Abloh.

On Friday, the 22-year-old’s stylist, Maeve Reilly, shared previously unseen pictures of the two designer dresses the bride later changed into during the latter stages of the jubilant occasion.

One of the bridal gowns was a custom-made creation by Vera Wang, which the model wore with a pair of white trainers.

Hailey’s decision to wear trainers prompted several of Reilly’s Instagram followers to express their wish to follow suit.

“It’s official. I’m rocking sneakers to my wedding reception,” one person commented.

“The dress and sneaks,” someone else wrote, adding a heart-eye emoji.

Hailey also wore a custom design by Ralph and Russo for her wedding party, featuring a thigh-high split and a halter neckline.

Following the announcement of the engagement of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in December 2017, Meghan wore a £56,000 sheer couture gown by the high fashion label for the couple's official engagement photos.

Following the reveal of Hailey’s ornate wedding gown, Abloh shared two sketches of the design on Instagram.

“When @haileybieber asks if you want to design a wedding dress... that’s a ‘yes’ too. Love you guys since time, for time,” the fashion designer wrote on the social media platform.

One of the most striking aspects of the model’s bridal look was her veil, which was adorned with the slogan: “Till death do us part.”

Fashion designer Marc Jacobs was particularly fond of Abloh’s bold use of lettering, commenting: “What a vow, what a veil” on Instagram.

Justin, who wore a custom Celine tux for the wedding, also shared a couple of pictures with his new bride on Instagram.

“Even thugz get married [sic],” the singer captioned one of the photographs.

Justin and Hailey became engaged in July 2018, having first met as teenagers.
