The wedding itself was at a private villa in Les Parcs, and a string quartet performed throughout the ceremony. \u201cThe service was peaceful and sentimental,\u201d Dylan remembers. \u201cSeeing my beautiful wife walking down the aisle and reciting my vows in the middle of the most beautiful wildflower garden was a dream come true.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cNeither of us had ever been to a wedding before,\u201d Paula says. \u201cWaiting two years for that moment made it feel even more magical.\u201d<\/p>\n
For the ceremony, Paula wore the final wedding dress designed by Fernando Garcia for Oscar de la Renta. Soon after getting engaged, she, her mother, and mother-in-law Pamela Anderson began working with the Oscar de la Renta team, drawing inspiration from classic French cinema, Sofia Coppola\u2019s Marie Antoinette, Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face, and archival runway collections. \u201cI had always envisioned being in ballet flats or barefoot down the aisle,\u201d Paula says. \u201cSo we kept the front of the dress shorter but kept the long train in the back to give it that princess look.\u201d<\/p>\n
The dress captured the romantic, whimsical elegance Paula had always imagined. \u201cEvery fitting felt special,\u201d she adds. \u201cAnd together we created something that felt timeless while still feeling completely like me.\u201d To complement the look, the bride wore jewelry by her friend Eve Gay of Stoned\u2014also the designer of her engagement ring and wedding band\u2014including diamond earrings for the ceremony shaped like a flower to match her dress. Meanwhile, the groom wore custom tailoring by Genuardi.<\/p>\n
Pamela also wore Oscar de la Renta. \u201cFernando has been a friend for a long time,\u201d she explains of the backstory to her outfit, which included a custom mustard brocade dress with a small cape. \u201cDylan is a beautiful soul\u2014he really is a grounding force in all of our lives,\u201d she says. \u201cHe and Paula are an undeniable match. They are a wonderful artistic couple, and we are so blessed to share our families.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m so happy for Dylan and so excited to send him off into the wild world,\u201d the mother of the groom continues. \u201cIt\u2019s an emotional moment. Tears are catching me off guard at times\u2014happy tears. But as Khalil Gibran says, \u2018As parents, we are the bow from which life springs.\u2019\u201d The groom\u2019s brother, Brandon Thomas Lee, was also in attendance alongside his girlfriend, Katarina Demetriades, and their father, Tommy Lee.<\/p>\n
The couple\u2019s family friend, Dr. Habib Sadeghi, officiated the ceremony. \u201cHe\u2019s known Dylan and I since we were young,\u201d Paula explains. \u201cSo it was very special to have him there to guide us through the process.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cWe felt pure happiness,\u201d Dylan remembers. \u201cLooking around and seeing everyone we love gathered together in one place was overwhelming in the best possible way. There was so much excitement and love in the air. Being one of the first among many of our friends to get married made the day feel especially meaningful, and we truly tried to soak in every second together.\u201d<\/p>\n
Following the ceremony, guests toasted the newlyweds with Dom P\u00e9rignon and pastries by C\u00e9dric Grolet before making their way to Gigi for dinner. Candlelit tables layered with overflowing florals, embroidered napkins, and personalized menus set the tone for an evening filled with heartfelt speeches, live music, and dancing that kept going late into the evening.<\/p>\n
The following afternoon, everyone reconvened at Les Graniers, where Paula and Dylan arrived by vintage Riva boat before spending one last afternoon celebrating on the beach. \u201cIt was perfect,\u201d Dylan says. \u201cThe perfect ending to a perfect weekend.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The wedding itself was at a private villa in Les Parcs, and a string quartet performed throughout the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":531294,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[321,93,61,60,215839],"class_list":["post-531293","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-wedding-inspiration"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/531293","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=531293"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/531293\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/531294"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=531293"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=531293"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=531293"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
