Well folks, it turns out those viral theories of Riley Hemson being a Vogue bride were true, with the influencer confirming her marriage to Vita Tomoana was captured by the fashion mag via a deluge of much-hyped wedding content.
“The rumours are true,” the prominent internet personality wrote alongside a bunch of Vogue snaps from her big day, which took place after a three-year engagement in Berry, New South Wales last weekend.
For its part, Vogue Australia also shared the wedding pics — taken by photographer Jack Henry — on its social media pages, and published an accompanying profile of the happy couple on their “dreamlike” wedding day.
Hemson wore a gorgeous gown with a dramatic corset and princess-like skirt designed by Lillian Khallouf. “It felt like the most elevated version of what I had always imagined,” Hemson told Vogue of the wedding dress.
Reflecting on her nuptials across her social media posts, Hemson said she’d “dreamt of this day for 30 years” and that she “never felt more beautiful”. In another post, the influencer described the wedding as “the best day of our lives”.
The long-awaited wedding content came after Hemson whipped up a speculative frenzy online by refraining from sharing any snaps or vlogs from the big day, despite dropping a bunch of content from the pre-wedding festivities.
In the lead-up, we got a glimpse of Hemson’s joint hens-bucks party in Thailand, teases about her potential wedding makeup and cake, and a morning-of video of herself and Tomoana reading letters they’d written to each other before the big day.
But with no content from the actual wedding day itself, fans were being kept on the edge of their seat. “We’re being drip fed,” one follower commented, while another said they “haven’t been able to focus at work today [because they] need the content”.
Others wrote they’d been “sat patiently refreshing” their feeds while awaiting new wedding vlogs, or simply declared they are “desperate for content”.
“It’s another day not knowing what Riley’s wedding looked like,” one TikTok user wrote in a video viewed by over 400k people.
Only adding to the anticipation was content from the wedding guests themselves, including Hemson’s family, friends and a few fellow influencers.
For his part, TikToker Alright Hey “reported live” from the nuptials and interviewed “eyewitnesses” (with no sight of Hemson), while wedding celebrant and content creator Aniella Batten teased that she’d seen Hemson’s wedding dress, vows and first dance.
The absence of wedding day content led to the persistent theory that Hemson was a Vogue bride, which would theoretically mean she wasn’t able to share personal snaps or vlogs from the wedding until the mag published it itself.
That theory, as we now know, turned out to be correct.
To be clear, Hemson did promise to “feed” followers at the height of the speculation, and with the Vogue spread published, feed us she did.
There’s truly no shortage of insights shared by Hemson from her big day.
In one video, we see her and Tomoana exchanging heartwarming vows at the alter, while others show them signing the nuptials, celebrating with their parents, and getting ready with their bridal party.
It’s a long-awaited conclusion to a viral saga that, unlike other social media stories, thankfully had a wholesome ending.
