It's yet to be confirmed whether Gina's father, F1 star Michael Schumacher was in attendance, however, German outlets have reported that the family took special measures to ensure the ceremony was top secret. According to BILD, guests were even forced to hand over their phones.

Michael, 55, was involved in a skiing accident in 2013. After suffering a serious head injury, the German driver was later brought home for rehabilitation, with his family maintaining strict privacy regarding his condition. As of 2024, he has not been seen in public since the incident.

Michael has been married to former champion equestrian, Corinna Schumacher, since 1995 and together they share two children – daughter Gina, and son Mick.

Gina, who shares a sweet bond with her father, marked his birthday on Instagram in January. "Happy Birthday Papa! Throwback to one of many of our adventures," she captioned a photo taken on a family boat trip.

On Gina's wedding day, Michael's brother, Ralf Schumacher was spotted at Villa Yasmin alongside his boyfriend, Étienne Bousquet-Cassagne. The couple recently went public with their romance in July. The morning after Gina and Iain's wedding, Ralf and Étienne released a joint Instagram post.

Gina and Iain's nuptials were reportedly followed by a banquet and party for their guests. A country music band provided the entertainment. Prior to their wedding, the pair had already celebrated with a pre-wedding party at Mhares Sea Club.
