Vicky revealed HA Designs had her personalised veil ready for her in 45 minutes, in an apparent hen wardrobe rush, and shared with followers that her sexy bikini was from swimwear giant Melissa Odabash.
The yacht party was laden with lavish details, including a vast wall of shots adorned with the words: ‘They’re tying the knot! So let’s take a shot!’
Coconuts containing cocktails were seared with personalised lettering reading Vicky and Ercan, while Tequila Rose was free-flowing on the shores.
Alongside a series of snaps from the day at sea, she added a caption reading: ‘The Patti-Rams 2024… If we were to go home now, I would still consider this to be one of the the trips of my life!!! Thankyou so so much for organising the sten of a lifetime!!
‘Ercan and I are so grateful for your friendship. And to all of our gorgeous family and friends- god, where do I begin… we just love you and are so happy you’re here.’
The trip comes after Vicky revealed that even though her wedding day is costing ‘the same price as a house’ she still doesn’t have enough money to fund her dream day.
She admitted that her celebrity wedding planner has told her that her fund won’t even cover the flowers she wants.
Speaking to Rock My Wedding, Vicky admitted that despite trying to be a little sensible in places, she will be wearing four wedding dresses on the day.

But she has limited certain luxuries and won’t be splashing out on the flower installation she had her eye on for their welcome dinner.
Vicky said: ‘I knew weddings were a big money business and, like I say, it’s not my first rodeo in this space, but everything’s just got more and more expensive.
‘I was really shocked. I don’t want to be paying it off for the next 10 years, or remortgaging my house for a wedding,’ she added.
She admitted that at first she thought she was going to have the ‘wedding of the century’ but the reality quickly set in when she realised the cost.
Unfortunately, her wedding planner revealed that what she wanted was impossible with her initial wedding fund.

They will then head to Italy for a welcome dinner, wedding ceremony and evening reception, which has attracted 150 guests so far.
Vicky teased that she will be wearing a sixties-inspired gown for her UK wedding and said she loves the short veil and big sunglasses look. The pair got engaged in the summer of 2019, when Ercan proposed to her on the beach in Dubai.
