Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker have marked some big relationship milestones since getting together.

After having a Las Vegas wedding without an official marriage license in April and getting legally married in Santa Barbara, the couple had an extravagant wedding ceremony in Italy on May 22.

The two exchanged vows surrounded by red roses and loved ones, including their six total children: Kourtney's sons Mason and Reign and daughter Penelope and Travis' son Landon, daughter Alabama, and stepdaughter Atiana.

The couple first started dating in 2021, but they have known each other for years.

In addition to living in the same Calabasas, California, community, Barker has previously made brief cameos on Keeping Up with the Kardashians (and makes a few appearances on the Kardashians' new Hulu series).

Since going public with their romance, they have wasted no time marking relationship milestones, including PDA-filled red carpet appearances, ringing in birthdays together, and getting tattoos in honor of each other.

The duo has also joined their respective families, taking various trips with their kids and celebrating holidays together.

In August, Kardashian supported Barker for a milestone life moment as he took his first airplane ride since his deadly 2008 plane crash, which killed 4 people and left Barker with third-degree burns on more than half of his body.

"It's a huge deal that Travis flew to Cabo. The plane crash many years ago was extremely traumatizing. He has needed a lot of help to get to this point," a source told PEOPLE. "Kourtney has been very supportive. She never pushed for him to fly. They have managed to travel in the US without having to fly and Kourtney has been totally fine with it."

Barker later opened up about the experience in an interview with NYLON in September 2021, adding that he felt "invincible" with Kardashian by his side.

"I made a deal with her that she had just said to me, 'I would love to do so much traveling with you. I want to go to Italy with you. I want to go to Cabo with you. I want to go to Paris with you. I want to go to Bora Bora with you,'" he recalled. "And I said, 'Well, when the day comes you want to fly, I'm telling you I'll do it with you. I would do anything with you. And just give me 24 hours notice.' And that's what she did."

"The doctors had told us that we still have some really good-looking follicles and that it was the best they've seen."

"Everyone involved, including our natural doctors, felt we should give it one more shot with an IVF retrieval," she later continued. "And so we did one final egg retrieval and we are just waiting on the genetic testing results, but it has made it to an embryo."

While their living situation sounds unconventional, Kardashian and Barker still see each other every morning and evening.

"I get up at six in the morning and I carpool every morning, then I go straight to his house and have a matcha, he has it ready for me, and then we have matcha, talk, hang out and work out together, and then we start our day," she explained, adding that Barker comes to her house every night, no matter what.
