Viral influencer Brigette Pheloung, known online as Acquired Style, has officially tied the knot to her longtime partner, Mitch McHale - but she's been roasted by fans over her choice of wedding dress.

On Monday, Pheloung, who boasts nearly three million followers, announced that she had secretly gotten legally married in Philadelphia a few weeks ago, sharing a sweet video and various photos from the ceremony.

Their special day took place at Saint Joseph's University, where she and husband Mitch McHale first met years prior.

She made the announcement by sharing a video to Instagram, which showed clips from their private wedding, and was narrated by each of them telling the story of how they met.

Pheloung, who explained that a second, bigger celebration is still to come, also shared footage showcasing her wedding dress.

She donned a figure-hugging, long-sleeved lace gown, which featured a hood as well as an open back.

It was custom-made for the influencer by her and twin sister Danielle's own clothing brand, Phe Phe.

But some of the social media star's followers were not fans of the look, as they took to Reddit to slam the gown, branding it as 'too much' and 'ridiculous' for a summer event.

Influencer Brigette Pheloung, known online as Acquired Style, posted a video to TikTok proudly showing off her wedding dress following her intimate ceremony with Mitch McHale, but it garnered immense backlash after someone reposted it to Reddit

'I see the vision but the execution is atrocious. The hood looks like an actual hoodie hood if that makes sense,' one Reddit user wrote.

Another agreed: 'The back cutout and the hood don’t go together.'

'The hood in the middle of summer in June is a weird choice, especially with an open back dress,' someone else typed.

'It’s just too too much. It’s too busy. The hood, the lace pattern, the bell sleeves, the cut-out back buttons. It’s too too much. She’s from Jersey right? This tracks… maybe she needs to acquire some real style,' a different Redditor commented.

'The dress itself is pretty but the hood is just ridiculous especially in the summer,' read a fifth comment.

Other fans, though, thought the opposite, raving about how beautiful the gown was.

'Maybe I’m an outlier but I actually think this is stunning,' one Reddit user typed.

Another seconded: 'I don't know, I think she looks beautiful and incredibly happy. I’m a fan of it.'

Pheloung and her twin, Danielle, are TikTok-famous influencers who live in New York City

Pheloung's big day comes just a few weeks after she made headlines for her extravagant bachelorette party to St. Barths. She's seen in April

'Hate to say, I kinda love it,' someone else wrote.

Pheloung's big day comes just a few weeks after she made headlines for her extravagant bachelorette party in St. Barths.

She set off for the trip in a Boeing Business Jet worth millions of dollars and stayed in a private villa in St. Barths with her closest friends.

The jet ride and villa were both sponsored by AI mirror company Swan Beauty, which sells an $800 'smart beauty mirror' that gives users an AI skin analysis and face mapping, along with tutorials from professional makeup artists and even includes a makeup shopping app.

While Pheloung is only including her twin sister, Danielle, in her actual bridal party, she invited along nearly 20 friends for the sponsored weekend-long trip, including fellow content creators Kit Keenan, who is the daughter of fashion designer Cynthia Rowley, Audrey Trullinger, Lauren Wolfe and Klea Mulla.

The women showed their followers every detail of the weekend, starting off with their private jet ride, where they were greeted with drinks in coconut shells with her bachelorette catchphrase - 'acquired a husband' - as well as a buffet of breakfast foods and treats.

Brigette also gave viewers a private tour of their villa in St Barths, as seen above

The jet not only featured a full-size bed on board, but also a conference table and cashmere sofas and chairs.

The bridal party all wore neon sweatsuits from the twins' brand, Phe Phe, while Brigette wore a custom-made, bedazzled white suit that read 'bride' on both her shirt and the back of the sweatpants.

The bride-to-be toted a $35,000 mini Hermès Kelly bag during her travels.

While they were in the air, the girls made plenty of TikTok videos chronicling the trip, and even gave the bride a gift, which was a white tote bag from designer Goyard, which costs over $2,000, complete with her new initials painted on in it in bright pink.

After they made their way from New York City to St. Barths via the private jet, they were transported to a huge, private villa where the girls will stay for the weekend.

The villa featured multiple huge living rooms, a large kitchen and open-air bedrooms that each have their own private view of the nearby beach and sea.

It's unclear exactly what villa the brand has rented for the weekend, but similar, multi-room villas in the area go for over $18,000 per week.

The Issue: Claire Valdez, Darializa Avila Chevalier and Brad Lander winning the Democratic primaries.

I am disgusted with the current state of our formerly great city (“Plot to end America,” Melanie Phillips, June 26).

Never in my wildest dreams did I think we’d have a rabid antisemitic mayor and a slate of similar bigots running for office — Claire Valdez, Darializa Avila Chevalier and Brad Lander.

Antisemitism runs rampant in the city with hardly a peep from our so-called leader.

My only solace is that I don’t live there anymore; I am happily retired in Florida.

Boynton Beach, Fla.

Low voter turnout and indoctrinated Gen Z slackers have left us with three communists on the ballot in November.

As New Yorkers, we need to stop with identity politics and get common-sense candidates to run against these horrible choices.

Sen. Chuck Schumer, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand are so fearful of losing power.

Please remember in November: Trump is only here for a short time.

The comrades and their horrible policies will be there for long haul.

I find myself wondering how Chevalier — who, based on her policy positions and social media posts, loathes this country — will be able to take the required oath of office at her swearing in.

The oath states, in part, that a member of Congress must “support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic” and “take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion.”

This is a question The Post should ask her and her fellow DSA members.

After the results of the primaries, the only hope left for NYC and perhaps the entire state population is to elect Bruce Blakeman governor.

Hopefully, he will be able to rein in the evil that looms among the Democrats and their far-left leaning members.

A win for Gov. Hochul may fuel a bad future for the entire country, with California leaning in the same direction.

To Lander: No matter how often he calls you a “friend,” no matter how often he compliments you or flashes his smirk at you, Mamdani hates your guts.

He is a rabid Jew-hater, and you are a Jew.

You have no pride in your heritage and are ashamed of being Jewish.

You have sold your soul and that makes you evil.

Barry Koppel

Kew Gardens Hills

I think it’s wrong for Chevalier to be a congresswoman when she has terrible disrespect toward the American flag.

She said she’d use our flag to wipe herself.

Men and women fought and died for that flag.

I served proudly in the US Navy, and I won’t condone an ignoramus like Chevalier continuing her attacks on our nation.

The victory of communist ideology in New York’s primary should sound a very loud klaxon all over the world, but all we hear from the party’s leaders is a peep.

Always anxious Jeffries and ponderous Schumer are unfit for the trials their party now faces.

Who will marshal common sense, gather normal Dems and cast the crazies out?

Time’s wasting, and so is our patience.

Paul Bloustein

Mamdani’s forces came out in large numbers and left their mark.

You can be sure this group of pampered progressives attended some of the top-notch universities, and it was there where their indoctrination took hold.

To prove the point, Chevalier was one of those defiant participants during the Columbia University demonstrations.

The root of the problem are lefty faculties inculcating ideologies in the minds of young adults.

Just think how much of a coward you have to be to be Lander.

This Jew cozies up to people that not only hate Israelis, who are fighting for their lives against Middle Eastern terror groups, but hate all Jews.

There really is a special place in hell for him.
