The wedding takes place just 20 days after the engagement proposal, made during the couple's trip to Lisbon, Portugal, on July 10th. The speed of the decision caught the attention of fans on social media and fueled speculation that Isabella could be pregnant.
Preparations began on Tuesday (28), when Isabella was seen arriving at the Mira Casa Chapel with her wedding dress protected by the store's cover. The images circulated on social media. On the eve of the ceremony, the influencer also gathered friends and family for a bachelorette party.
Dressed in white, she shared photos of the celebration and showed the bouquet she received from friends Paula Hahn and surfer Matheus Navarro, accompanied by a congratulatory message.
The location chosen for the ceremony is one of the most popular for weddings on the coast of São Paulo. Facing the sea, the Mira Casa Chapel was built in 1970 by artisans from Ouro Preto and Tiradentes (MG), in a Baroque style, and preserves historical details, such as tiles taken from the former house of writer Monteiro Lobato.
Although the chapel can accommodate around 50 guests, the property has the facilities for receptions for up to 250 people. According to commercial material for the space, the complete package for weddings in July starts at R$120,000 and includes three nights' accommodation, exclusive use of the venue, five houses with 12 suites, a concierge and the entire assembly and disassembly structure for the event.
For Isabella, the ceremony represents the fulfillment of an old desire to walk down the aisle. The influencer became known as a dancer at Domingão do Faustão and currently works as a stage assistant at Domingo Legal, in addition to parading as a muse at the Salgueiro samba school.
Before meeting Medina, she was engaged to singer Zé Felipe, Leonardo's son. The relationship ended before the countryman started his story with Virginia Fonseca, with whom he started a family.
As for Medina, this will be her second marriage. The three-time surfing world champion was married to model and ex-BBB member Yasmin Brunet between 2020 and 2022. He and Isabella publicly announced their relationship in 2025 and, since then, have shared moments of their routine on social media.
