The Biggest Celebrity Weddings From the Past 90 Years (2025)

Over the course of the last 90 years, the world has witnessed countless celebrity weddings. Some of these A-list pairs wed in lavish affairs where they were decked out in designer looks, were surrounded by opulent décor, and celebrated with star-studded guest lists, which later graced the pages of tabloids and eventually websites. Other famous duos attempted to dodge the paparazzi, discreetly exchanging vows in secret ceremonies.

Regardless of the nature of these celebrations, celebrity weddings tend to have one thing in common: One the public knows about them, they turn into cultural phenomenons. These high-profile affairs often set the trends in the industry and serve as a source of inspiration for to-be-weds. Even those who aren’t actively planning a wedding can live vicariously through celebrity nuptials—particularly ones that worked with a seemingly unlimited budget—and often feel a sense of pride and connection when their favorite actor or singer gets married.

Across the past nine decades, from 1934 to 2024, once word gets out that an A-list couple has said “I do,” these celebrations quickly dominate conversations and headlines. Ever since social media was born, many members of the public have taken to these online platforms to voice their opinions on the celebration, allowing others to join the conversation. With the vast reach of image-sharing platforms, footage from the event—both leaked and published—tend to go viral, spreading across the internet like wildfire.

In honor of BRIDES' 90th anniversary, we're taking a look back at the biggest celebrity weddings from 1934 until 2024. From Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier of Monaco's elaborate soirée to Beyoncé and Jay-Z's intimate penthouse affair, here are the most talked-about, influential nuptials by year.

1934: Princess Marina and Prince George

In 1934, the same year that the first issue of Brides hit the stands, the wedding of Princess Marina, Duchess of Kent, and Prince George, Duke of Kent, was the most highly anticipated and prominent event of the year. The two royals wed on November 29 in an Anglican ceremony at Westminster Abbey (which attracted huge crowds), followed by a private Greek Orthodox service in Buckingham Palace. Like many royal weddings to come, it featured a carriage procession and iconic fashion, particularly the bride’s Edward Molyneux gown with white and silver brocade.

1935: Valerie Fox and Ben Hogan

The following year, the most notable celebrity wedding was between PGA golfer Ben Hogan and Valerie Fox, and it took place on April 14. While it was a no-frills, intimate ceremony, occurring in the front parlor of the bride’s parents’ home, it still garnered plenty of attention—particularly due to the gossip surrounding it: Ben’s mother didn’t attend the affair because she reportedly didn’t get along with Fox, but they fortunately grew closer over the years.

1936: Margaret Perry and Burgess Meredith

When Prince Edward, Duke of Windsor, decided to marry Wallis Simpson on June 3, 1947, their private wedding ceremony in France was marked by beautiful details, such as the bride’s elegant Mainbocher gown and a château venue.
