The week-long event on the private island owned by Richard Branson featured a variety of outdoor activities, including kiting and snorkeling, as well as encounters with the island’s local wildlife, such as lemurs and flamingos. According to reporting by People, the couple maintained a high-profile aesthetic for the main event: Booysen wore a custom gown from Nicole + Felicia Couture, while Donaldson opted for a Ralph Lauren tuxedo.

Relationship Timeline and Public Persona

Booysen and Donaldson first met in South Africa in 2022. Booysen, who is also a gamer and content creator, noted in interviews with People that she was surprised by Donaldson’s personality upon meeting him. She described him as “down-to-earth” and noted that he did not possess the ego she initially expected from a major YouTube star.

The Shift Toward Private Milestone Celebrations

While Donaldson’s career is defined by high-production, public-facing YouTube content, this event remained limited to 70 attendees. The reception featured specific catering choices, including sushi, wagyu beef, and carrot cake, with the couple performing their first dance to “Die With a Smile” by Lady Gaga and Bruno Mars.
