Reality TV favourites Giannina Gibelli and Blake Horstmann are officially married. According to People, the Love Is Blind star and The Bachelorette alum celebrated their wedding with a multi-day destination affair in Croatia, surrounded by close friends, family and fellow reality TV personalities.
The couple exchanged vows on 20 June in Rovinj, a picturesque coastal town on Croatia’s Istrian Peninsula. Nearly 100 guests attended the celebrations, which stretched across several days and even included a stop in Venice, Italy, before the wedding weekend officially began.
Why Croatia?
For Gibelli, the destination held special significance. The reality star reportedly fell in love with Croatia years before meeting Horstmann and always envisioned getting married there. The celebrations began in Venice, where guests enjoyed a welcome gathering before making their way to Croatia for the main event.

A family-centred ceremony
The outdoor ceremony took place on St. Andrew’s Island, just off the coast of Rovinj. Gibelli walked down the aisle in a couture gown by Galia Lahav, while Horstmann was accompanied by his mother. One of the sweetest details of the day was the inclusion of the couple’s two-year-old son, Heath, who served as ring bearer.
A love story that started on reality TV
While both found fame on different reality dating shows, Gibelli and Horstmann actually met while filming All Star Shore in 2022. Their relationship quickly blossomed, leading to the birth of their son Heath in 2024. Later that year, Horstmann proposed during a romantic trip to Madrid.
