Millie Bobby Brown Marries Jake Bongiovi—for a Second Time, in Four Designer Wedding Dresses
The 'Stranger Things' star staged several dramatic costume changes throughout the fairytale weekend in Italy.


Millie Bobby Brown and Jake Bongiovi tied the knot for the second time in Italy, following an intimate wedding ceremony with their families in May. On Wednesday, the Stranger Things star shared a photo dump from the Tuscan celebration on Instagram.
"Forever and always, your wife," the Florence by Mills founder captioned the post, which gave followers a window into their fairytale nuptials.
Taken by photographer Sandra von Riekhoff, the photos also showcased a series of designer wedding gowns Brown wore throughout the weekend. The day before the ceremony, the 20-year-old kicked things off with a Fall 1993 Valentino gown styled by Ryan Young and procured from Happy Isles bridal salon, which specializes in vintage designer sourcing. Bongiovi, meanwhile, wore a classic black tuxedo and white dress shirt from Tom Ford.

For her big day, the actress wore a custom Galia Lahav gown with a basque waist, boned bodice, and dramatic train.
"Designing her custom gown was such an exciting journey, fun & creative journey and we couldn’t have done it without the incredible @cryoungin," the designer wrote on Instagram in a tribute to Brown and her stylist.

Later, she closed out the reception with another costume change, this time opting for a very Vivienne Westwood-esque off-the-shoulder bustier mini dress worn with her husband's discarded bowtie as a choker. It would be crazy for two Brits to get married without a little bit of Westwood in the mix, no?

Brown's choices speak to a broader trend toward that emphasizes a complete wedding wardrobe featuring three or more looks in lieu of a singular wedding dress and an optional reception costume change. Call Her Daddy host Alex Cooper, for instance, wore seven stunning dresses over the course of her wedding weekend in Riviera Maya, Mexico. Although Brown seemingly fell short of that record, it's impossible to say exactly how many bridal gowns she wore this year between her secret ceremony in May and her second wedding in October. But wouldn't it be delightfully fitting if the total turned out to be eleven?
