Devon Windsortook a break from strutting on the catwalk to walk down the aisle!
For her special day, Windsor wore a custom off-the-shoulder lace Zuhair Murad gown, while the groom looked dapper in an all-white suit. Later on, the bride changed into a sparkling white romper with a skirt for her reception.

Windsor also shared the first look at her three diamond-encrusted wedding bands exclusively with PEOPLE.
The couple turned to the same jeweler who designed Windsor’s engagement ring — Nicole Wegman ofRing Concierge— to create their “versatile” and “fashion-forward” bands. And rather than select just sparkler, Windsor opted for three different rings (meant to be worn solo or stacked) while Dex chose two styles.
“She selected ourpetite emerald cut eternity bandset in platinum, ourthin micropavé bandin rose gold and asideways baguette bandin platinum,” she tells PEOPLE of the bands, which took four weeks to create from start-to-finish.
Wegman adds: “Johnny went with a 3mm 18-karat yellow band and 3mm platinum band. They aren’t meant to be worn at the same time. Many grooms like the idea of matching their wedding band to the watch color they have on that day.”

Windsor’s oval engagement ring (which became so popular, Ring Concierge has dubbed it the “Devon”) features a “floating design with three rows of diamonds on all sides of the band. So it was important that the bands didn’t compete with it when worn at the same time.
Having the option to wear different wedding bands for different occasions was key for the couple, too.
“Versatility was important to them. I love that Devon’s bands are both stackable, yet each looks beautiful if worn alone. They have multiple options to select from, depending on their outfit and the other jewelry or watches they’re wearing that day,” she says.
To ensure each ring reflected the couple’s personality, Wegman made each piece “interesting in a subtle way.” She says: “They’re a very fashion-forward couple, but didn’t want to stray too far from the classics. For example, we made Johnny’s bands less wide than most men’s bands, so they looked sleeker.”
Leading up to their wedding weekend, Windsor and Dex enjoyed some TLC in St. Barths. “Two days and you’re stuck with me forever! 🥰 #DEVotedToDEX,” the model captioned a sweet photo with her man.
Windsor also posted a behind-the-scenes look at how she’s gotten her hair, skin, nails and body prepared for the big day in a vlog on her YouTube channel. Her treatments included Emsculpt (a non-invasive body contouring procedure), fresh blonde highlights, pilates classes and sauna visits.
