Gold Coast swimwear designer Karina Irby tied the knot with her partner of eight years in a skimpy white bikini.

The 32-year-old is known for sharing « real » photos of her body with her 1.2 million followers, and regularly calls out « trolls » who make nasty comments about her natural figure.

On Wednesday, the social media star and swimwear entrepreneur wed partner Ryan Jones in a scenic beach wedding in Bora Bora wearing a skimpy two-piece cossie.

« I just got married… island style! » she wrote alongside a photo of their first kiss as husband and wife. And it couldn’t have been more perfect.

« Marry your best friend in one of the most beautiful places on the planet. »

The Moana Bikini owner rocked a bandeau top with racy cutouts across her bust with a pair of revealing thong bottoms in a bridal white color.

She paired it with a sheer sarong as well as a crown of giant flowers in an array of tropical colors.

Karina’s new hubby also wore a flower crown, but opted for a relaxed cream shirt and cropped combo for their nuptials.

The couple had arrived by canoe at the private island where the ceremony was held, which was followed by a beachside reception with fireworks.

Later, the bride changed her togs into a white satin dress with a flowing train and sexy cutouts.

“It was a tough decision for us to make, but after 3 years of trying to plan a wedding at home, I felt like it was really meant to be.”

While visiting the idyllic holiday destination, Karina also shot a campaign for her swimwear line.

She’s amassed a huge following online with her body-positive posts, but unfortunately draws ‘rude’ and ‘disgusting’ remarks from strangers about her figure.

In a powerful post, Karina shared some of the horrifying remarks she regularly makes, calling on people to « do better ».

“People tell me to kill myself. Call me names. Discourage my work. Call my skin issues,” she wrote.

« I LOVE social media and I LOVE making myself available to help others feel less alone, make someone smile and distract people from their hectic lives.

“But I don’t like the way people can treat each other here. Hiding behind their screens. What rude and disgusting behavior.

“People are literally ending their lives over comments like this.

« We all need to #BEBETTER. Better not listen. And better never talk to others like that.
