Well, darlings, if there’s one thing that gets our hearts aflutter, it’s a grand Venetian wedding fit for royalty. And when it’s the enchanting Anya Taylor-Joy, former Tatler cover girl and Hollywood sensation, tying the knot, you know it’s going to be nothing short of magical. So, hold onto your vaporettos, because we’ve got the scoop on the wedding of the year!
It all unfolded in the picturesque splendor of Venice, Italy, a city that oozes romance at every corner. Nestled beside the Grand Canal, the bride-to-be was spotted on her hotel balcony, donned in a white silk dressing gown, casually sipping her morning coffee. But little did we know, she was merely prepping for her big day, one that would be etched in the annals of fairy tale weddings.
As the clock ticked closer to the momentous occasion, Anya emerged in a gown that would make even Cinderella envious. And what else would you expect from a noted ambassador of the Dior brand? The actress graced the world in a custom-made Dior creation – a simple yet exquisite A-line gown in soft taupe tulle, adorned with the whimsical imagery of hummingbirds, thistles, and writing that undoubtedly held special significance for the lovebirds.
Her bold makeup, featuring a purple-tinted lip, was a statement, and her signature ice-blonde locks cascaded elegantly, topped off with a classic white veil for that quintessential bridal touch.
But the magic didn’t stop there. The groom, the dashing Malcolm McRae, arrived by boat, looking effortlessly chic in a black wool jumper and dark denim jeans. However, he clutched Dior bags and suit carriers, leaving no doubt that the iconic French brand had dressed the couple from head to toe, ensuring they were the epitome of elegance.
The setting for this dreamy affair was none other than the 15th-century Palazzo Pisani Moretta, a luxury wedding venue nestled near the iconic Rialto Bridge. The interiors of this enchanting palace read like a Baroque love letter – gilded wallpapers, frescoed ceilings, grand marble staircases, and Gothic mullioned windows. It’s the kind of place where you can imagine a Dior tulle dress floating down an ornate staircase, and trust me, it didn’t disappoint.
But the festivities didn’t end there. The night before the grand event, the couple hosted a Venetian masquerade ball that attracted their celebrity pals from far and wide. Julia Garner channeled her inner Holly Golightly in a stunning black and gold dress with a pearl choker and a white fur stole.
Miles Teller and his wife Keleigh Sperry opted for high drama, with the actor donning a floor-length opera cape and his better half stunning in sheer black, figure-hugging lace and a gold mask.
Aimee Carrero joined the gothic vibes with a dark lace gown, perfectly complemented by a black lip. The guests were seen capturing the magic in selfies and photos outside the venue and aboard Venice’s famous water taxis, as the excitement for Anya and Malcolm’s big day reached a fever pitch.
Anya Taylor-Joy’s journey to this magical day has been nothing short of remarkable. Born in Miami but raised in Argentina, she made her way to London at the tender age of six. After education at Hill House in Knightsbridge and Queen’s Gate School in South Kensington, she embarked on a career in acting, stunning us all with her eerie debut in Robert Egger’s indie horror gem, “The Witch.”
So there you have it, darlings – a Venetian wedding for the ages, with the enchanting Anya Taylor-Joy and her dashing groom, Malcolm McRae. From Dior gowns to the opulence of Palazzo Pisani Moretta, this was a celebration that will forever be etched in the stars of Hollywood romance. Venice, you’ve outdone yourself, and we can’t wait for the next glamorous tale this city has in store for us!
