By Natalie Zamora
2018 has no doubt been a crazy year for celebrity couples. From Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson's unexpected engagement and eventual split, to Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin's quick engagement and secret wedding, love has definitely been in the air this year. And apart from the surprising weddings and secrecy, there have been tons of adorable ceremonies celebs have proudly shared on social media and beyond.
Here are ten of the cutest this year.
10. Karlie Kloss and Joshua Kushner
Victoria's Secret model Karlie Kloss married businessman (and brother to Jared Kushner) Joshua Kushner on Oct. 18 in upstate New York. According to PEOPLE, the ceremony had less than 80 people in attendance, as the couple has plans for a bigger wedding come the springtime. Kloss and Kushner have been together since 2012.
9. Pusha T and Virginia Williams
Pusha T and Virginia Williams tied the knot on July 21 in Virginia Beach, and had quite the star-studded ceremony. According to Williams, the date for their wedding was extremely special, as she told Brides:
"For whatever reason I see the number 721 almost everyday in crazy places. On 7/21/16 Terrence [Pusha T, real name Terrence Thornton] had me believing he was in LA, but popped up at our home in Bethesda. He told me to meet him on our rooftop terrace…when I did he was on one knee and asked me to marry him at 7:21 pm! I said yes!"
Among the guests were Kim Kardashian and Kanye West, Pharrell Williams, Trey Songz, and more.
8. Janel Parrish and Chris Long
Pretty Little Liars alum Janel Parrish had a gorgeous wedding to Chris Long on Sept. 8 in Hawaii. "I’ve had a wedding Pinterest board since the day Pinterest came out," Parrish hilariously told Us Weekly, and it shows.
“I think we’re an amazing team,” Parrish said of Long. “He’s the strongest, kindest person I’ve ever met.”
7. Mandy Moore and Taylor Goldsmith
Mandy Moore and musician Taylor Goldsmith wed on Nov. 18 in Los Angeles. The ceremony was small, but included stars such as Minka Kelly, Wilmer Valderrama, Milo Ventimiglia, Chrissy Metz and Sterling K. Brown, according to E! News. The couple met in 2015, and got engaged in 2017.
"He makes me melt. I can imagine no better partner," Moore told Glamour about Goldsmith. "He's going to be the most tremendous father. I view the past as a stepping-stone to get me where I am today. I would gladly weather all of that a million times over if it brought me to Taylor again."
6. Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson and Kelsey Henson
Game of Thrones actor Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson, who also happens to be the strongest man in the world, married his girlfriend of one year, Kelsey Henson, in late October.
The couple regularly turn heads due to the 1'7" height difference between them (Henson is 5'2" while Bjornsson stands at 6'9"). Their wedding took place in a private ceremony in Bjornsson's native Iceland, where he is considered an athletic icon.
5. Laura Prepon and Ben Foster
Laura Prepon and Ben Foster tied the knot in early June, almost a year after welcoming their first child, a baby girl in Aug. 2017. The pair began dating in July 2016 and got engaged in Oct. 2016. The reason for their delayed wedding was most likely due to conflicting schedules. Prepon told E! News in January, "He’s going off to do two movies. I just wrapped last week. It’s just, you know, scheduling. It’s a lot.”
4. Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth
Although Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth got engaged for the first time in 2012, we did not expect them to get married anytime soon. The pair had been on and off for almost ten years, and they seemed happy not taking the next step yet. Well, they shocked us all on Dec. 26 by posting photos in a wedding dress and tuxedo from the previous weekend, confirming they had tied the knot on Dec. 23.
They are, for a lack of a better word, goals. The ceremony took place in their Tennessee home in an intimate setting.
3. Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra
The most extravagant wedding of 2018 (besides the Royal Wedding) hands down goes to Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra. As the two come from two different cultural backgrounds and religions, the pair had one Christian and one Hindu ceremony this past weekend. They officially became husband and wife on Dec. 1 in India.
Jonas and Chopra went public with their relationship in May, and got engaged in July. While they have moved pretty fast, they seem very much in love and look super cute together. Not to mention, their wedding celebrations were to die for.
2. Kit Harington and Rose Leslie
Fan-favorite couple Kit Harington and Rose Leslie got together after starring alongside each other as star-crossed lovers on Game of Thrones. Their wedding on June 23 was very much highly-anticipated, as the pair announced their engagement in Sept. 2017. Many familiar faces attended the ceremony in Scotland, including GoT stars such as Sophie Turner, Maisie Williams, Peter Dinklage and Emilia Clarke.
Despite rumors Harington had cheated on Leslie began circulating last month, it seems there is no validity to the claims and they remain one of our favorite couples.
1. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle
And of course, the cutest, most magical wedding of 2018 goes to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. Their Royal Wedding took place on May 19 at Windsor Castle in the United Kingdom. In October, Kensington Palace announced the couple were expecting, with a due date in spring 2019 suspected.
Through mutual friends, the couple met on a blind date in July 2016, with their relationship confirmed by Kensington Palace in Nov. 2016. After months of speculation, Meghan and Harry finally announced their engagement in Nov. 2017, after the actress quit her role on Suits and moved to England. An estimated 29.2 million people tuned in to watch their wedding this past spring.
