Decked out: The guests wore glamorous outfits, while one woman checked her phone as her boat reached the shore
Once they alighted at the jetty, the guests climbed a set of steps to a secluded garden where the wedding ceremony is thought to have taken place
The floor of the garden appeared to be covered entirely in a red carpet with a dome covering the venue, covered in foliage and leaves to create a woodland grotto effect.
A 12ft high gold structure in the shape of a huge gilded picture frame or mirror was earlier seen being erected at one end of the garden plot which has spectacular views over the Mediterranean
Dramatic: Early arrivals included Meghan Fox’s boyfriend Machine Gun Kelly
Colourful: He was sporting pink hair and wearing a multi coloured animal print suit.
Two other giant gilded stands with wide brimmed bowls on top were seen filled with red roses.
Dozens of candles in glass jars were also lined up ready to be lit and moved into position to create an enchanting and romantic scene.
The secret garden venue is in the grounds of a house which has been hired by the Kardashians along with the medieval Castello Brown fortress next door.
The couple’s marriage ceremony is due to be followed by a party on the terrace of the castle away from the prying eyes of tourists and paparazzi.
The ceremony sponsored by Italian fashion house Dolce & Gabbana is the third time that mother-of-three Kourtney, 43, and Blink-182 drummer Travis, 46. have got ‘married’.
The couple had their first small wedding in Los Angeles after the Grammys last month and legally tied the knot last Sunday in Santa Barbara, California.
Courtney was unsurprisingly seen in a Dolce & Gabbana wedding dress in black and white pictures of her big day which she released after the intimate ceremony in Santa Barbara.
The Kardashians and Jenners have made very public displays of support for Dolce & Gabbana in recent days by wearing the brand’s clothes in the run up to the wedding.
Some of the clothes have been vintage items which would have been hard to source, according to fashion industry insiders.
Staff have been sworn to secrecy and made to sign legal agreements, forbidding them from talking about the wedding.
Kourtney appears set to make a dramatic entrance, walking in to the strains of the song Ave Maria while wearing a long headdress train.
MailOnline this morning witnessed a last minute rehearsal for the reality star’s wedding which is expected to take place later today in a garden grotto beside the walls of a medieval castle in the Italian resort of Portofino.
Travis also took to his Instagram Story to show an up close photo of his wedding suit, which appeared to be a shiny black material.

The strains of Ave Maria, sung to a melody composed by Franz Schubert in 1825, and regarded as one of the most popular and romantic wedding songs of all time, rang out as the fake bride made her entrance.
Two men appeared to be holding the train at the back, seemingly taking on the possible role of bridesmaids and page boys just hours before the ceremony when reality star Kourtney will marry drummer Travis.
