Wedding bells have rung on the stunning surrounds of the Amalfi Coast for fit-fluencer couple Tobi Pearce and Rachel Dillon.

Pearce, the ex-fiance of Adelaide fitness royalty Kayla Itsines, and influencer Dillon, tied the knot this week in a breathtaking Italian ceremony after announcing their engagement six months ago.

Pearce and Itsines’ daughter Arna, five, played an important role on the day, donning a gorgeous bow-detailed dress as flower girl.

Pictures of the bridal party getting ready for the romance-filled day see the five-year-old excitedly preparing for her part in the ceremony.

The Gold Coast-based couple wed in front of loved ones on Wednesday in Ravello, a picturesque clifftop town overlooking the Amalfi Coast.

Dressed in a strapless crisp white satin gown with a full skirt and daring thigh split, Dillon was every bit the radiant bride as she beamed down the aisle.

She wore her hair in a sleek bun and held a cream and white bouquet, matching the white roses which enveloped the couple as they exchanged their vows.

Adelaide rich-list entrepreneur Pearce, who co-owns Sweat fitness app with Itsines, wore a black tuxedo.

In a series of photos of videos of the day, Dillon and Pearce couldn’t wipe the smiles off their faces, with one snippet of the nuptials seeing the two embrace in dramatic fashion, the Italian coastline their backdrop.

Little Arna was also seen hugging the bride as she readied herself for the aisle with bridesmaids including Dillon’s sister Emma, Australian model Isabelle Mathers and Soffia Ribotta.

Italy holds significance for the couple, given it was where Pearce popped the question in September 2023.

“I asked the most important question and got the best possible answer,” Pearce shared to his Instagram story, while Dillon said on hers: “Forever feels so right with you.”

The proposal took place on a boat adorned with flowers.

Dillon, a fitness coach and former bikini model, went public with Pearce in January 2022.

She was believed to be Pearce’s first girlfriend since splitting from Itsines in August 2020.

Pearce and Itsines first met in a gym back in 2012 before getting engaged in April 2018 and welcoming their daughter the following year.

They split in August 2020, but have maintained a business relationship having joined forces to reclaim Sweat from a US company in November 2023. They had sold the business in 2020 for $200m.

Itsines — who recently moved to the Gold Coast to operate Sweat with Pearce — tied the knot with her new partner Jae Woodroffe in a romantic backyard ceremony in December 2023, after welcoming son Jax Stokes Woodroffe in January 2023.

Family plans are on the cards for Pearce and Dillon, too.

In December last year, the couple shared their IVF journey on Instagram in a touching series of posts.

In one, Pearce wrote alongside a video: “This journey with Rachel Dillon.”

Meanwhile, Dillon posted a video of her receiving injections during the appointment

“I never thought I would share this journey, but here I am,” Ms Dillon wrote in the opening of her video post.

“Very few people know Tobi Pearce and I have been going through this journey, and it’s been very emotionally challenging.

“I am sharing this because I think it’s important for women and hopefully with my vulnerability someone can feel supported and these conversations can become more normalised.”
