The Celebrity Weddings of 2019: A Definitive Guide
Love was most certainly in the air this year. Numerous stars exchanged vows to close out the decade, and here we look back at the most memorable celebrity weddings of 2019. From Jennifer Lawrence and Cooke Maroney's private nuptials to Hailey Baldwin and Justin Bieber's wedding extravaganza, plenty of stars said "I do" in ceremonies that were thoughtful and utterly romantic. (Not to mention FOMO-inducing.)
Some opted for private celebrations, like Chris Pratt and Katharine Schwarzenegger, while celebs like Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner hosted multiple extravagant ceremonies. A few weddings came as a surprise (like Heidi Klum and Tom Kaulitz's secret ceremony), while longtime couples like Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson and Lauren Hashian finally sealed their union. Here, we look back on the most romantic moments and break down all of the top celebrity weddings of 2019.

Hilarie Burton and Jeffrey Dean Morgan
View this post on InstagramThis past weekend was the best of my entire life. There are dozens of thank yous I need to make. So bear with me over the next week as I gush over the amazing group of people who gave us this beautiful moment. But before we do any of that, Jeff and I just want to put it out there that WE GOT MARRIED! For real. We've lived as husband and wife for a decade. We've built a family, and a farm and found our community. For years, publications have reported that we got married in 2014 or 2015 and that I've been married and divorced before. All untrue. But WE knew our truth. So it felt silly to try and correct anything. Here's the God's honest fact: From the moment I met @jeffreydeanmorgan , he was my husband. Rather than make vows right out of the gate, we lived them. For over ten years. The good times and the bad. Standing up there with our children at our sides - celebrating all that has been - was bliss. I love you Jeffrey. I love our intimate group of friends and family who joined us. I love the various circles of loved ones who have supported us over the years. It was private and magical and everything I dreamed. So yeah. I'm Mrs. Morgan. 10.5.19
