Also in September, Abby and Patrick emulated a Western dream sequence celebrating with his famed fam—including parents Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver—as well as the groom’s The White Lotus family, with Jason Isaacs, Sam Nivola and Sarah Catherine Hook hitting the dance floor.
“I still can’t believe it’s over—it all flew by like a dream,” Abby told Vogue of the couple’s Idaho nuptials. “I’m so excited to start this next chapter with Patrick.”
Of course, no wedding had more enviable invitees than Selena and Benny’s late September soiree. Not only were stars like SZA and Paris Hilton on the seating chart, but the couple’s famous friends Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift delivered heartfelt toasts.
“I got to see her be the most elegant, gorgeous, not only bride but just vision—I’ve never seen anything so beautiful as her on her wedding day,” Taylor told Jimmy Fallon during an October appearance on The Tonight Show, going on to recall parts of her speech. “I did do some light teasing about the way that we used to dress in 2008, the year that we met, ‘cause we met when we were teenagers.”
For Selena—and surely every other star this year—however, the real party is the lifetime ahead with their partner.
“It has been a dream so far,” she said of marriage on Apple Music Nov. 13. “I know it will come with ebbs and flows, but it’s the most beautiful person that I can do that with.”
