Leona and her longterm boyfriend Dennis married on July 27 in Tuscany. The wedding was held at Sting’s Italian residence Villa Il Palagio. The happy couple shared their beautiful nuptials with 180 loved ones which included Keisha Buchanan and Jermain Jackman.
They explained that they chose Sting’s residence because of the homely feel. Villa Il Palagio is a 16th century style estate and has been owned by Sting and his wife Trudie Styler since 1997. It features 865 acres, a giant chessboard, outdoor pool, olive and orange trees and cypress-lined driveway. The reception was held in Sting’s recording studio.
Leona had three outfits for her big day. For the ceremony she wore a sheer full-length white dress that was designed by Israeli designer Mira Zwillinger. The stunning gown featured a lace bodice with floral embroidery and mesh detail. Her dinner outfit included a pink embellished tulle gown. Finally she wore a crystal jumpsuit to party the night away.
Leona and Dennis had a vegan menu along with a wedding cake. The cake was made by Sicilian dessert stylist and pastry chef Marco Failla. He created a tiered millefeuille cake that was finished with fresh berries, flowers and 24k gold leaf. The millefeuille also included Sicilian caramelized almonds and salted dark chocolate cream.
The love birds met in 2010 on Leona’s Labyrinth tour where Dennis Jauch was a backup dancer.
