“I love that we have designed this from scratch together and the lace is absolutely stunning,” she told PEOPLE exclusively.
For her afterparty look, the 37-year-old reality star changed into a white strapless minidress from Newport Beach-based Casablanca Bridal, which she teamed with a dazzling headband and high-top platform sneakers.
Wedding guests includedVPRco-starsAriana MadixandRaquel Leviss, who participated in Shay’s bridal party, andTom SandovalandTom Schwartz, who were two of Davies' groomsmen.
“The fact thatthatmany people came on vacation with us is so cool,” Shay told PEOPLE on the ceremony. “I feel like it’s a small wedding in scale, but it’s big for a destination. I want this special moment. Brock deserves this. We deserve this.”
“Scheana and I have talked openly about what we want in life, all the way down to the ring. So all I needed to do was talk to our good friend Kyle Chan, who also happens to be an amazing jeweler,” Davies told PEOPLE exclusively. “He ran with the design and came back with such a fire cut.”
Although cozy and intimate, the at-home occasion was executed in style. Shay tapped into bridalwear with a white, high-slit dress with a corset bustier and nude pumps while Davies went traditional with a white button-up and black trousers.
