Dance music’s most talked-about wedding of the summer just happened. Alesso has officially married Erin Michelle in Italy, and the guest list reads like a Tomorrowland mainstage lineup. The Swedish superstar tied the knot surrounded by golden Italian hills, and fans have spent the last 24 hours combing through every photo and story dropping across the timeline.
The front row was properly stacked. Martin Garrix, Sebastian Ingrosso, Marshmello and Dillon Francis were all in attendance to celebrate Alesso and his new wife, a genuine who’s who of the modern electronic era gathered in one place with no stage in sight. For an artist who has spent most of his career jumping between festival mainstages and long-haul flights, this was something different: a proper, human, slow-down-and-celebrate moment. Fans of Swedish House Mafia will note the Sebastian Ingrosso presence carries its own weight, given his long history with Alesso in the Swedish dance scene.
The wedding also lands during a landmark year for Alesso, who recently delivered his first Swedish hometown show in more than 10 years in Stockholm to a huge reception. It is the kind of moment that reminds you why the community around dance music runs deeper than the tracks themselves. Congratulations to Alesso and Erin Michelle from all of us at We Rave You.
