Imagine the scene: Italy, Tuscany, sunset. There, in a secluded corner of a lush garden, surrounded by white flowers and well-kept secrets, Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi said "I do" in May 2024, but hush, in stealth mode! It was only on October 2, 2024, that the Stranger Things star finally unveiled her precious wedding photos on Instagram. Four months after the event. And the least we can say is that they didn’t do things by halves… not even three-quarters!
Intimacy and romance: the perfect cocktail
Under an arch of white flowers worthy of a Netflix production, our two lovebirds exchanged their vows. Millie Bobby Brown wore a wow dress by Galia Lahav. Imagine an embroidered corset that makes you want to say "but where’s my invitation?", a train so long you’d need a GPS to find it, in short, a breathtaking dress. Sharon Vever, the designer behind this masterpiece, couldn’t hide her pride: "Making a dress for a star like Millie is a bit like winning an Oscar in couture." Not wrong, Sharon, not wrong.
As for Jake Bongiovi, the son of rocker Jon Bon Jovi (no less), he sported a cream vest so chic that even his father must have asked for advice. The whole event was overseen by a prestigious guest: Matthew Modine, aka "Papa" in Stranger Things. Yes, you read that right. Even on the big day, fiction meets reality.
Three dresses for a royal wedding
And because Millie never does things by halves, she had not one, not two, but three dresses! The first, in lace, perfect for saying "I do" with elegance. The second, more classic, with a train that could serve as a red carpet for the Oscars. And the third, a short little dress ideal for partying. And, why not, a Stranger Things marathon right after.
The evening continued in the gardens of Villa Cetinale, where Millie let loose by stealing her husband’s bow tie and blowing bubble gum. A playful bride, that’s what we love.
A romance born… on Instagram
Yes, this couple is love 2.0. They met on Instagram in 2021, and Jake immediately launched a subtle "bff" in the caption of their first photo together, just to throw people off (spoiler: it fooled no one). A few months later, hand in hand in New York, the romance was official. And in April 2023, Millie dropped an Insta bomb: their engagement. "I loved you for three summers, now I want them all," she declared. Well, we’re jealous, but we accept it.
A double wedding, because one isn’t chic enough
Before this big Italian celebration, the two lovers had already said "I do" in the United States during a more discreet ceremony. It was in May 2024, surrounded by their close families. Jon Bon Jovi confirmed the scoop with the pride of a rocker dad: "They are so happy," he slipped. Yes Jon, we see that!
Millie, at 20, is already a queen of the screen and elegance. As for Jake, at 22, he found a way to get married without the web collapsing in jealousy. Hats off.
Tradition, modernity, and bubble gum
This wedding is the perfect meeting of tradition and modernity. In the photos finally shared, we see a happy, loving couple, but above all ready to let loose. Their ceremony was not only beautiful, it was fun. Millie, with her bubble gum and stolen bow tie, proves that even on her wedding day, you have to know how to laugh.
The fans, for their part, didn’t take long to explode with joy. The unveiled photos are an invitation to celebrate love, humor, and, of course, international class.
So there you have it, Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi offered their fans and themselves an unforgettable wedding. A wedding that, for sure, will be "forever and always."
