Buckle up as we dive into the details that left guests—and the world—utterly speechless.

The Love Story That Captivated Hollywood

To understand the magic of this wedding, we must rewind to the beginnings of Kristen and Dylan’s romance. Kristen Stewart, the 35-year-old actress best known for her brooding role as Bella Swan in the Twilight saga, has always been a figure of intrigue. Her career has spanned blockbuster franchises, indie darlings like Personal Shopper, and critically acclaimed performances in films such as Spencer, where she portrayed Princess Diana. But off-screen, Stewart’s personal life has been equally compelling, marked by high-profile relationships and a fierce commitment to privacy.

Dylan Meyer, a talented screenwriter and producer, entered Stewart’s life in 2019. The two first met on a movie set six years prior, but sparks didn’t truly fly until they reconnected at a mutual friend’s birthday party. “It was like the universe aligned,” a source told us exclusively. “Kristen was coming off a string of relationships, and Dylan just got her—her quirks, her intensity, everything.” Their bond deepened quickly, with public sightings of the couple hand-in-hand at events like the Toronto International Film Festival.

By November 2021, Stewart announced their engagement on The Howard Stern Show, gushing, “We’re marrying, we’re totally gonna do it. I wanted to be proposed to, so I think I very distinctly carved out what I wanted and she nailed it.” The ring? A stunning vintage-inspired diamond from a bespoke jeweler, rumored to cost upwards of $100,000. But engagement was just the prelude to the main event.

The couple’s relationship has been a beacon for LGBTQ+ representation in Hollywood. Stewart came out publicly in 2017 on Saturday Night Live, declaring, “I’m like, so gay, dude.” Meyer, equally open about her identity, has supported Stewart through thick and thin, including during the actress’s directorial debut and various red-carpet appearances. Their love story isn’t just cute—it’s inspirational, showing that true connection transcends the glitz of fame.

As wedding planning kicked off in early 2024, insiders whispered about the scale. “Kristen wanted something intimate, but Dylan pushed for grandeur,” a planner revealed. “They compromised on ‘intimate extravagance’—small guest list, but no expense spared.” And boy, did they deliver.

Planning the Ultimate Dream Wedding: No Budget, No Limits

Weddings in Hollywood are often extravagant, but Stewart and Meyer’s took it to another level. The planning process alone reportedly spanned over a year, involving a team of elite coordinators from firms like Mindy Weiss and Colin Cowie. “They wanted every detail to scream luxury,” said one vendor. The theme? A blend of vintage Hollywood glamour with modern queer chic—think old-school elegance meets bold, unapologetic flair.

First up: the venue. While initial reports suggested a simple courthouse affair, our sources confirm it was far more opulent. The ceremony unfolded at their sprawling Los Angeles home, transformed into a fairy-tale paradise. The property, a multi-million-dollar estate in the Hollywood Hills, was decked out with imported Italian marble fountains, crystal chandeliers dangling from ancient oaks, and a custom-built pavilion overlooking the city skyline. Landscaping alone cost $500,000, featuring rare orchids flown in from Thailand and a rose garden inspired by Versailles.

Security was airtight, with drones patrolling the skies and a no-fly zone enforced—rumored to add $200,000 to the tab. Paparazzi were kept at bay, but leaked photos (thanks to sneaky guests) gave the world a glimpse of the splendor.

The invitations? Hand-crafted by a Parisian artisan, each one embedded with Swarovski crystals and scented with custom perfume blending notes of jasmine and sandalwood. Only 50 guests received them, but the RSVPs included A-listers like Taylor Lautner, Ashley Benson, and even Emma Roberts. “It was like a who’s who of cool Hollywood,” an attendee gushed.

Catering came from Michelin-starred chefs, with a menu that fused global cuisines: sushi from Nobu masters, vegan delights (Stewart’s a plant-based advocate), and a dessert bar featuring gold-leaf macarons and a seven-tier cake by Buddy Valastro of Cake Boss fame. Wine? Vintage Champagnes from Dom Pérignon, with bottles dating back to the 1980s. Total food and beverage bill: a staggering $300,000.

Entertainment wasn’t skimped on either. A live string quartet played during the ceremony, transitioning to a DJ set by Diplo for the reception. Rumors swirl of a surprise performance by Billie Eilish, a close friend of the couple. “The music was epic—everyone was dancing till dawn,” said a guest.

But the real showstoppers were the outfits. Stewart wore a sheer, lace-embellished gown from Chanel’s haute couture line, customized by Karl Lagerfeld’s successor, Virginie Viard. The dress, with its plunging back and intricate embroidery, was valued at $150,000. Meyer complemented her in a tailored tweed suit from Gucci, accessorized with diamond cufflinks. Bridesmaids (including Stewart’s Twilight co-stars) donned mismatched vintage dresses, adding a quirky touch.

Jewelry? Meyer sported a family heirloom necklace, while Stewart’s earrings were loaned from Harry Winston—diamonds totaling 10 carats. The rings, exchanged in a tearful vow renewal, were designed by a New York jeweler, featuring engraved messages in secret code.

All this extravagance didn’t come cheap. Industry experts estimate the total cost at $5.2 million, covering everything from floral arrangements ($100,000) to custom lighting ($150,000) and even a fireworks display that lit up the LA night sky. “They spared no expense because this was their forever moment,” a source explained. In an era of celebrity frugality, this wedding screamed, “We’re here, we’re queer, and we’re splashing out!”

The Big Day: Tears, Laughter, and Unforgettable Moments

April 20, 2025, dawned bright and sunny in Los Angeles—a perfect backdrop for the union. Guests arrived in chauffeured Bentleys, greeted by valets in tuxedos. The ceremony kicked off at sunset, with Stewart walking down an aisle lined with floating candles and petals from 10,000 roses.

Vows were personal and poignant. Stewart reportedly said, “Dylan, you turned my world upside down—in the best way. You’re my adventure, my calm, my everything.” Meyer responded, “Kristen, from the moment we reconnected, I knew. Let’s build a life full of stories, just like the ones you tell on screen.” Tears flowed freely, even from tough-guy guests like Robert Pattinson, who attended with his partner Suki Waterhouse.

Post-ceremony, the party ramped up. A cocktail hour featured signature drinks like the “Stewart Sparkler” (champagne with edible gold flakes) and the “Meyer Martini” (infused with rare botanicals). Dinner was a multi-course feast, with speeches that had everyone in stitches—Stewart’s brother Cameron roasted her teenage Twilight days, while Meyer shared anecdotes from their early dates.

The dance floor was electric, with the couple’s first dance to Etta James’ “At Last.” Fire performers and aerialists added circus-like flair, while a photo booth with instant Polaroids captured candid moments. As midnight approached, sushi rolls and late-night tacos kept the energy high. “It went past 2 a.m.,” a guest recalled. “No one wanted it to end.”

But the highlight? A surprise helicopter arrival of custom fireworks, spelling out “K&D Forever” in the sky. Neighbors complained about the noise, but for the couple, it was worth every penny.

Star-Studded Guest List: Who Made the Cut?

With only 50 invitees, the guest list was ultra-exclusive. Twilight alumni topped it: Taylor Lautner and his wife Tay, Nikki Reed, and even a video message from Anna Kendrick. Other celebs included CJ Romero (Stewart’s hairstylist and friend), Ashley Benson, and Emma Roberts.

Notably absent? Exes like Robert Pattinson (though he sent a gift) and Stella Maxwell—keeping things drama-free. Family was central: Stewart’s parents and siblings, Meyer’s relatives from out of state. “It felt like a family reunion on steroids,” an insider said.

Gifts poured in: a custom painting from Banksy (rumored), luxury vacations, and charitable donations in the couple’s name to LGBTQ+ causes like The Trevor Project.

Public Reaction: Shock, Awe, and Endless Buzz

News of the wedding broke via TMZ, with photos sparking a social media frenzy. #KristenDylanWedding trended worldwide, amassing over 10 million tweets in 24 hours. Fans gushed: “This is the queer wedding we’ve been waiting for!” Critics of excess questioned the cost amid global issues, but supporters countered, “Let them celebrate love!”

Celebrity reactions flooded in. Ellen DeGeneres tweeted, “Congrats to the happy couple! Love wins.” Billie Eilish posted a heart emoji on Instagram. Even conservative outlets praised the inclusivity.

The extravagance drew comparisons to other celeb weddings—like Kim Kardashian’s $10 million affair—but Stewart’s was lauded for its authenticity. “It’s not just about money; it’s about joy,” a commentator noted.

Looking ahead, Stewart has projects like Love Lies Bleeding sequels, while Meyer pens scripts. Together, they plan to start a family, perhaps via adoption or surrogacy. “Kids are on the horizon,” Stewart hinted in a pre-wedding interview.
