I can’t believe Jennifer Lawrence and Rafael Nadal got married this weekend! To other people, obviously. Rafa married Mery, his girlfriend of 14 years, in Spain on Saturday. Jennifer married Cooke Maroney in Rhode Island on Saturday. Who had the bigger wedding? I actually think… Rafa had the bigger wedding, it looks like he spent millions on it. Jennifer spent a good chunk of change on her wedding too, no doubt. And we seem to know more details about Jennifer’s wedding:
Jennifer Lawrence and Cooke Maroney are officially married! The 29-year-old Oscar-winning actress and the art dealer, 34, have tied the knot, PEOPLE confirms. A source tells PEOPLE the bride wore a Dior dress for her happy day.
Lawrence and Maroney held a wedding reception for their 150 guests, including Adele, Amy Schumer and Kris Jenner, at the luxurious Belcourt of Newport, a mansion in Newport, Rhode Island that was designed in 1894 by renowned American architect Richard Morris Hunt. Emma Stone and Ashley Olsen were also in attendance.
The estate was inspired by Louis XIII’s hunting lodge at Versailles. It is currently the home to Carolyn Rafaelian, CEO of Alex and Ani. On Friday, Nicole Richie, Joel Madden, Cameron Diaz, Sienna Miller and more were spotted attending the rehearsal dinner, during which the couple hosted a clambake under a white tent on Rose Island.
Sienna Miller is friends with Jennifer Lawrence? Cameron Diaz too? Kris Jenner being there is no big surprise – they’ve been friends for years now. Emma and J-Law are good friends too. I bet Dior was super-pleased to make Jennifer’s wedding gown, but I hope Jennifer really did CHOOSE Dior and it wasn’t contractually forced on her. Do you think we’ll get photos? My prediction is… a Vogue spread. That would feel on-brand for them.

Belcourt is a lovely place.
It is pretty, though not my favorite of the Newport mansions. An interesting place for a wedding though!
I was going to chime in and say the same 🙂 I really love The Elms and Rosecliff. The Breakers is amazing but almost obscene in size and opulence.
Newport is one of my favorite places in the US. And I love living close enough for a day or weekend visit!
Rose cliff is my favorite, but what fun she had her wedding in Newport! It must have been very beautiful. We all thought Kentucky or near his family!
The Breakers is truly amazing. That the same family owned The Breakers AND Marble House is mindblowing. The Elms is lovely. My favorite of the Newport mansions was always Hammersmith Farm, which, although not of the level of opulence and excess as the others, has so much charm and is so lovely – and has tremendous history, but it is no longer open to the public.
For those interested in more information on the Newport mansions, here’s a helpful website: https://www.newportmansions.org/ Newport itself is a cool place to visit with great restaurants, nice beaches, the Tennis Hall of Fame, lots of stuff about America’s Cup, the loss o which hurt the city, and the Folk and Jazz festivals in the summer.
I live near Newport could see the fireworks after the rehearsal on Rose Island; was actually cursing whoever was setting them off because many of the neighborhood dogs were stressed and no one knew to do the usual preparations (CBD, Thundershirts). Rose Island is a very cool place but rustic. Can see the attraction though, it’s only accessible by boat and because of its location near the Pell Bridge and a Navy base airspace is very restricted. Was a beautiful night to be out there. If you are ever in RI it’s worth taking a ferry over for the day or you can can rent out the lighthouse for overnights.
If I had my pick of Newport mansions for a wedding I wouldn’t pick Belcourt either. Anyone can rent out Rosecliff for a wedding and it’s pretty reasonable (my neighbor is a fireman and his daughter was married there). The Breakers would be amazing, or even Marble House or one of the privately owned mansions. Was hoping for Watch Hill and Taylor Swifts house or Ocean House since I was having brunch there today, lol!
Rosecliff was my favorite too. It was very classy and elegant.
I also LOVE Doris Duke’s estate up there – Rough Point. Such an amazing area, I’ve gone a few times and really enjoyed it.
I say pics of the venue and it was gorgeous. And she looks amazing in that first pic
Starter marriage imo
Probably. She seems so immature. Best of luck to them, though. I bet she looked beautiful.
I don’t get good vibes from them together but I hope they’re happy.
That’s how I feel too, they don’t look like they have any chemistry together.
Every pic of them together is so darn odd, it’s disconcerting. All the best though.
That set of photos with the pink dress has always made me uncomfortable. Can’t really explain it. Something like… she looks like a pod person.
A pod person? What’s the reference?
No reference. I’m probably not using the right term! Just… she doesn’t seem like herself. She seems… “empty”, like she’s been emptied of her personality? Dead behind the eyes. And also, very fragile somehow. I don’t know… I just get a bad vibe. There’s something that makes me worry about her, although I can’t really explain what…
Pod people are empty shells that used to contain actual personality from the movie invasion of the body snatchers. And yes, in the last year and a half, I feel like her public persona has become totally dulled.
Thank you, Stromba and Steph!
Right! I must have known that at some point. Thanks for explaining, Steph!
She looks like she dressed to go somewhere, and he disapproves and is forcing her to go with him. I don’t understand when one person in a couple is dressed and the other looks so casual. Kim and Kanye do this a lot. Kim is always squeezed into shoes and clothing while Kanye looks like a slob ready to veg in front of the TV.
Yeah. The imbalance is jarring. She looks perfect, and he really… doesn’t! That, coupled with the fact she recently messed with her face, when she was one of the most gorgeous girls in the world… She clearly has self-esteem issues, and I’m not sure this dude is helping them. Ugh.
This is like every American couple in their 20s and 30s – the girl looks great, the guy looks like crap.
The dress is weird because I think I can see her mound in lacy underwear. It’s a little TMI
It’s the dress. It’s twisted on her.
I never heard this term before but I think you perfectly explain what happens to most celebrities when they get famous. They lose themselves, they truly sell their soul to the devil. Angelina Jolie is one of the few that comes to mind that I think has escaped the trap, by focusing on her humanitarian work and her children.
+1, her smile always looks so forced and she seems kinda lost?
Any photo or video I’ve seen of him, he seems devoid of a personality so perhaps she changed herself to match him.
Hmm to offer a counterpoint, I think I remember this being one of their first papped outings after they became a couple and he isn’t famous. I imagine walking down the street with people taking your picture can make anyone tense up.
I am quite disappointed that she didn’t go for the Mockingjay wedding gown! Lol. I kid, I kid. Congrats Jen and Cooke!!
😄
No Brie Larson?
Considering how Larson name checks Jlaw- as a close pal – in seemingly all her interviews🙄, I’m surprised.
Since when were Brie Larson and JLaw pals? Never once have I heard them being friends or talking about one another.
Why does everybody hate Brie Larson? I recently started noticing…it seemed at first just men but there seem to be some ladies as well… 👀
Brie Larson has name checked JLaw as a ‘close pal’ in several interviews, though Lawrence never returns the favour. 😶
You can check Larson Celebitchy archives.
And we’re not all obligated to like the same celebs.
I NEED RAFA WEDDING PHOTOS!!!
I want to see the dress!
Rafa had the biggest wedding because King & Queen Leticia attended..
I wanna see both wedding dresses…
Maybe now she can continue her formal education. It’s never too late!!
Sienna Miller and Ashley Olsen’s boyfriends both work in or are connected to the NYC art world so maybe they know Cooke?
Great point!
I’m sad she’s clearly messed with her face in the last year. That last pic with her in the leather jacket…her face looks so different and not in a good way. It’s sad cause she’s still so young AND I’ve always thought she was beautiful face-wise.
And there’s no way this marriage is gonna last imo….when the first person you text to tell you’re engaged is your exbf who you’re mad had a baby with someone else…yea…
The first person she told was Nicholas Hoult? I never heard that.
What did she do to her face? Haven’t watched her since the “Joy” movie , ( which I did not like). She’s still young, not even 30 yet.
They both strike me as assholes for some reason. Like attracts like, and all that.
She’s a serial dater….I give it 6 months.
I’ve got 9 months in the pool.
Wow the harshness. I wish her nothing but the best on her first marriage.
Did anyone see the photo of him in the car on the way to the wedding? Or of the two of them at their reception? Was this a funeral or a wedding?
To me, they looked like two people who realized they don’t even like each other but it was too late to cancel the party.
Did she get a nose job? Leather jacket photo shows a different nose…
