Say Cheese…and here comes a reel capture that’s going to rule your heart for a lifetime. Some moments are just too memorable to fade and some shots are too dear to forget, right? The other day, when I was catching up with my digital wedding photo album, similar thoughts surfaced in my mind.
What a terrific day it was! Those undemanding attention seekers, echoing laughter, sparkling wedding rings, happily chaotic groups, shimmering attires, glittering faces…woo hoo!! No need to mention it, but the highlight of the day was our wedding ceremony. I watched it in movies, how the bride and the groom lead their way to the altar and say “I do”.
Those very moments are so incredible that you wish you could live them in real life. Finally, when the day approached, I couldn’t tell how edgy I was. But honestly speaking, what a magical moment it was! We took our wedding vows, exchanged rings, planted a kiss, and were already “the man and the wife”. After the ceremony, the only thought that crossed my head was “Okay…so this is how it feels to be married”.
Returning to flicks, what pleases my eyes is not just that romantic wedding sequence but the wedding rings and the bridal jewelry. Well, most girls dream of it, we want to look our best on our “big day”, right? Are you also intrigued by celebrity wedding jewelry styles and wish to incorporate some in your jewelry case? Take inspiration from wedding jewelry for brides from star-studded weddings of some of the most celebrated Hollywood divas who got married in 2023.
Joey King and Steven Piet
Coming back to my wedding, my unique diamond engagement ring with a diamond eternity wedding band grabbed everyone’s undivided attention. Guess where the inspiration came from? Well, the credit goes to “The Kissing Booth” bride Joey King who glammed up like a princess at her wedding last year.
King saved September 2, 2023 as the “big day” for tying the knot with her partner Steven Piet. The opulent but intimate get-together was attended by kith and kin from both sides at La Fortaleza in Mallorca. It wasn’t a whirlwind romance but a long-time mutual attraction which became official with the couple’s engagement in February 2022.
Now, you must be itching to know the inside details of her engagement sparkler, right? Well, it’s a horizontally set elongated oval-shaped diamond on a gold metal band. The eccentric shape of the centerstone is actually called a “moval” (marquise + oval) cut. If moval is new to you, don’t fret, it was for me as well until I discovered it with King and got one custom-made for myself.
That’s not all, there are other peculiarly shaped diamonds studded in “The Princess” ring, so in total, King’s engagement bling is an absolute gem. But again, it wasn’t 2022 that kickstarted the romance. Want a little flashback? Well, our “The Act” actress met her “The Act” director-cum-future husband on the sets of the same crime drama series in 2019. The two were speculated dating a few months after that and the rest is history.
Kristin Chenoweth and Josh Bryant
2023 will surely be a memorable year for the 55-year-old “Wicked” actress Kristin Chenoweth. After all, she finally signed out of the #bachelorette team last year. The award-winning actress settled down with her longtime musician beau Josh Bryant on September 2, 2023.
The pink-colored theme traditional grand nuptials were held at a private residence in Texas. It attracted admiration from both, the guests and the paparazzi for its splendid decor. The floral furnish was an eye candy offering a charismatic blend of mushy hues spreading the fragrance of romance in the air.
The “Pushing Daisies” drama artist’s wedding bliss was a strapless full-length gown from Pamella Roland. The unconventionally designed outfit carried mute pink hints along with twinkling pearl flowers. The groom looked equally captivating styled in a gray-colored two-piece J Crew suit combined with Prada accessories.
Wow, if the wedding was such a swanky affair, how would have been the proposal? That’s what you peeps are thinking, right? Well, “pop the question” dates back to October 2021. Our musician guy went down on one knee and stole our princess’s heart with a spell-binding three-stone halo ring decked with diamonds.
Chris Evans and Alba Baptista
Chris Evans aka Captain America from the Marvel Universe lost his heart and bachelor’s title in 2023 as well. Meet the leading lady who is none other than the “Warrior Nun” star Alba Baptista. The two souls became one on September 9, 2023, at the couple’s Massachusetts house.
Several of Evans’ former co-actors from the entertainment industry were attending guests. Each one of them reportedly agreed to an NDA and had to surrender their cellphones to keep the wedding “hush-hush”. But the news of the confidential event did not come out unexpectedly, the couple was lovey-dovey for a while. They were first spotted together, strolling at a public park in November 2022.
In the beginning of 2023, the “Avengers” star posted a cute video of him and Alba on his social media. It was followed by a candid couple photo dump on Valentine’s Day which further ignited their sizzling chemistry.
No matter how secretive the “I dos” were, the couple could not keep their celebrity wedding rings concealed for long. While Evans’ wedding bling made a debut at a public event, Alba ended up revealing her magnificent diamond engagement ring along with the wedding band on her social media in the months following the couple’s wedding.
Kat Dennings & Andrew W.K.
Remember Darcy Lewis from Marvel Universe’s “Thor” series? Kat Dennings is our next bride on the list. The actress officially became the wife of American musician Andrew W.K. on November 27, 2023. The ceremony was held at the couple’s home in Los Angeles, with a wedding party of only 15.
Everything was kept under wraps about this at-home wedding but the pics revealed later left us awestruck. The floral decoration was heart-touching, all thanks to DIY hack. But a peek into the bride & groom’s show-stealer looks was beyond awesome. While the lady flaunted an off-white vintage dress from Alexander McQueen, complemented by bold red lips and a long veil, her man opted for a classic Brioni suit to match the vibes.
Dennings took her own sweet time to declare her #justmarried status on social media on December 11, 2023. By the way, the two lovebirds have been soaring high in the same sky since early 2021. It was by the middle of the year in May, the couple publicized their engagement on social media. The “2 Broke Girls” diva found her engagement bliss in a three-stone diamond motif that we can’t stop swooning over.
Vanessa Hudgens and Cole Tucker
The “High School Musical” actress made headlines after her casually dressed pictures in “white” surfaced on social media. Guess what, it wasn’t a coincidence. The actress-cum-singer exchanged wedding rings with baseball player Cole Tucker on December 2, 2023, just one day before those pictures came out.
This is how the world came to know about the couple’s magnificent wedding bash witnessed by relatives and friends in Tulum, Mexico. However, the love was already bubbling in the air ever since the couple got engaged in February of the same year. Hudgens is so obsessed with her massive oval-cut diamond solitaire engagement bling that she can’t get enough of it.
A few months later after her engagement, “The Princess Switch” beauty revealed her conflicting thoughts on deciding a wedding venue and we already knew wedding bells would ring anytime soon. Turn the pages back and you’ll get to know how our prince and princess met for the first time.
Well, it was during a group meditation session on Zoom (What an unexpected call!!). However, the couple’s first public appearance (holding hands & having dinner) in November 2020 in Los Angeles fueled the dating rumors. However, the couple kept their budding love veiled until Valentine’s Day of the following year, 2021.
These are just a few Hollywood divas who have made it to this list. Several other female Hollywood celebs took vows of eternal togetherness last year. Abigail Breslin & Ira Kunyansky, Margaret Qualley & Jack Antonoff, Chrishell Stause & G-Flip and Ashely Benson & Brandon Davis are some other celebrity couples to say “I do” in 2023.
