Elina Svitolina pulled out all the stops when it came to her 2021 wedding with Gael Monfils in Geneva, Switzerland. Instead of sticking to a traditional bridal white dress, the tennis star chose an unconventional Off-White jumpsuit with embellished floaty sleeves and a belted waist with a lilac tulle train.

It coordinated with her husband's bold purple suit from the same designer in the lakeside photo she captioned: "Best day of my life."

As for the reception? "We partied all the way until four in the morning which was perfect. We had a candy room, because I love sweets, and on the dance floor, we had fries and candy and burgers and stuff coming out. So I think the food was also a big highlight for us."
