Acquired Style influencer Brigette Pheloung has shared a first look inside her lavish wedding celebration, giving fans a close-up view of the romantic setting — and her show-stopping fairytale gown.
The New York City-based content creator, who legally married her longtime partner Mitch McHale in June, posted highlights from the couple’s second and much larger celebration on Instagram on Monday.
Pheloung, who has built an audience of nearly three million followers, officially tied the knot in Philadelphia earlier this year before marking the occasion with a far grander wedding ceremony.
Taking to Instagram, the blonde beauty, 28, shared a carousel of images from her special day that took place on Saturday, August 8.
The footage captured the newlyweds smiling as they exchanged vows, strolling back down the aisle hand in hand and sharing a quiet moment together with a dramatic clifftop backdrop behind them.
The aisle was lined with elegant floral arrangements in soft white and pale yellow tones, including roses and hydrangeas, while the couple said “I do” beneath an eye-catching flower-covered archway.
Still, it was Pheloung’s wedding dress that became the undeniable centerpiece of the celebration.
For the ceremony, she chose an off-the-shoulder ballgown that appeared to be a Vera Wang design, embracing a classic bridal silhouette with a dramatic, princess-like finish.

It was adorned with abstract gazaar florals across the waistband and winding rosettes around the hem of the train.
Pheloung wore her tresses in loose curls before accessorizing with a veil, diamond pendant necklace and matching bracelet.
She shared the images alongside a caption that simply read: ‘Husband & Wife. 08/08/26.’
Pheloung then dedicated a separate video upload to her gown, which showed a before and after, describing it as: ‘The dress of my dreams.’
Her twin sister Danielle, who was her maid of honor, also shared a series of snapshots of the day. She wore a strapless black ballroom-style gown but opted to wear her hair in a sweeping up-do.
Many of Pheloung’s followers flooded to the comments to heap praise on the new bride’s dress, which was worlds away from her choice of outfit for her previous intimate ceremony.
Back in June, Pheloung officially tied the knot with McHale at Saint Joseph’s University, where the pair first met nine years prior.
She made the announcement by sharing a video to Instagram, which showed clips from their private wedding, and was narrated by each of them telling the story of how they met.
For that occasion, Pheloung donned a figure-hugging, long-sleeved lace gown, which featured a hood as well as an open back.

Pheloung’s big day comes after she also made headlines for her extravagant bachelorette party in St Barts
It was custom-made for the influencer by her and twin sister Danielle’s own clothing brand, Phe Phe.
But some of the social media star’s followers were not fans of the look, as they took to Reddit to slam the gown, branding it as ‘too much’ and ‘ridiculous’ for a summer event.
Pheloung’s big day comes after she also made headlines for her extravagant bachelorette party.
She set off for the trip in a Boeing Business Jet worth millions of dollars and stayed in a private villa in St. Barths with her closest friends.
The jet ride and villa were both sponsored by AI mirror company Swan Beauty, which sells an $800 ‘smart beauty mirror’ that gives users an AI skin analysis and face mapping, along with tutorials from professional makeup artists and even includes a makeup shopping app.
While Pheloung is only including twin sister Danielle in her actual bridal party, she invited along nearly 20 friends for the sponsored weekend-long trip, including fellow content creators Kit Keenan, who is the daughter of fashion designer Cynthia Rowley, Audrey Trullinger, Lauren Wolfe and Klea Mulla.

The women showed their followers every detail of the weekend, starting off with their private jet ride, where they were greeted with drinks in coconut shells with her bachelorette catchphrase – ‘acquired a husband’ – as well as a buffet of breakfast foods and treats.
The jet not only featured a full-size bed on board, but also a conference table and cashmere sofas and chairs.
The bridal party all wore neon sweatsuits from the twins’ brand, Phe Phe, while Brigette wore a custom-made, bedazzled white suit that read ‘bride’ on both her shirt and the back of the sweatpants.
The bride-to-be toted a $35,000 mini Hermès Kelly bag during her travels.
While they were in the air, the girls made plenty of TikTok videos chronicling the trip, and even gave the bride a gift, which was a white tote bag from designer Goyard, which costs over $2,000, complete with her new initials painted on it in bright pink.
After they made their way from New York City to St. Barths via the private jet, they were transported to a huge, private villa where the girls will stay for the weekend.
The villa featured multiple huge living rooms, a large kitchen and open-air bedrooms that each have their own private view of the nearby beach and sea.
It’s unclear exactly what villa the brand has rented for the weekend, but similar, multi-room villas in the area go for over $18,000 per week.
