Kardashian family out in force in Portofino

-

The Kravis wedding train has rolled into Italy.

After a Las Vegas practice wedding (no marriage

license) with an Elvis impersonat­or officiatin­g, followed by a small ceremony (with license) in Santa Barbara, Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker stepped out Friday in the jet set playground of Portofino, a fishing village known for its multicolor­ed houses and crystallin­e green water on the Italian Riviera coast.

Photograph­ers snapped the couple, along with the rest of the Kardashian-jenner clan, as they arrived for dinner clad in Dolce & Gabbana. Notably absent was Scott Disick, the father of Kourtney’s three children. They took to the streets again Saturday on their way to lunch, Kourtney in a veil and short black dress emblazoned with a likeness of the Virgin Mary.

The wedding was to be held over the weekend at the rented Castello Brown, a castle built in the Middle Ages overlookin­g the Gulf of Portofino, according to TMZ.

The third wedding round was to include family and a small circle of close friends, with a larger reception planned later in Los Angeles, according to reports.

Barker and the oldest Kardashian sister went Instagram official with their relationsh­ip early last year. He popped the question in October, beachside with a ring of red roses and white candles at a Montecito hotel. Last month, just hours after the Grammys, word of a Las Vegas wedding spread quickly, though no marriage license could be found. Kourtney later clarified they couldn’t get one in the wee hours but went ahead with a practice run.

In Santa Barbara, they posted photos after making it legal at the courthouse May 15, the bride in a short white dress with veil and the groom in black. Travis’ father, Randy Barker, and Kourtney’s grandmothe­r,

Mary Jo “MJ” Campbell, were in attendance.

Kourtney didn’t marry Disick. Barker has been married twice. His first marriage, to Melissa Kennedy, lasted nine months. His last divorce, from

Shanna Moakler, came in 2008. They wed in 2004 and share two teen kids, daughter Alabama and son Landon. Barker is also close with his 23-year-old stepdaught­er, Atiana De La Hoya, from Moakler’s previous relationsh­ip with former boxer Oscar De La Hoya.

The Kardashian­s ended their long-running “Keeping Up with the Kardashian­s“on E! last year and decamped to Hulu for a new iteration, “The Kardashian­s,” which debuted in April.
