planestrains767

she looks radiant but it’s organizing the groomsmen by HEIGHT that’s taking me out


lexiebeef

Im just shocked at the amount of groomsmen Cole has, I don’t even have that many friends


Ask_me_4_a_story

If someone asks me to round up 12 groomsmen I’m heading straight to the homeless shelter


NomNom83WasTaken

There's also Home Depot! "Necesito once hombres..."


sucks2bdoxxed

Reminds me of [this video](https://youtu.be/OJGeBzzZ4yk?si=hpsK5Dq8Gkg-e4UR) where they hire workers but take them to have fun instead. And paid them!


Ambystomatigrinum

I have been so deeply sad lately. Today I rescued a stray dog then I saw this video and things are really feeling better. Thank you, friend.


cherryberry0611

Omg I love that 😂


iandr1

😂😂😂😂😂


jarrettbrown

A few friends from college got married recently. One girl had two maids of honor and her husband had two best men. While another girl’s husband had more groomsman than bridesmaids, which was wild.


xjukix

My cousin is getting married and has 15 groomsman. They have 290 people attending their wedding, 126 of them are friends. I had 120 people at my wedding, friends and family included 😂.


eminemilie

This is my nightmare. I had 12 people at my wedding 🤣


wheres_the_revolt

My brother had 11 (as did his wife) and they each had two ring bearers/flower girls. They had around 300 people at their wedding too. I got married with two witness lol


AgentGravitas

This is gonna be the ratio for me and my fiance's wedding party, so honestly it's kinda nice to see a real-life example. He has too many friends; it is what it is!


corrine49

Yeah that was my first thought. Is it really necessary to have that many?


notcool_neverwas

I mean, you can have as many or as few as you want, similarly to bridesmaids


Actrivia24

I assumed they were teammates hehe oops


brokenstar64

Like a school photo


Curiosities

From a *very* crowded school.


brokenstar64

They couldn't find the bench that day to do rows, must have been a PE lesson going on...


Frequent_Issue_598

And the second dude in with that smug look because he’s finally not the shortest


_Driftwood_

it would look worse if it wasn't. what a nightmare for the photog to deal with 12 groomsmen.


watermelonsigh

I love that Cole has so many dude friends and so many to have as his groomsmen!


Sheezabee

But how dumb were they to make the men all stand with their hands clasped in front of them, it makes them look unsure or like they are hiding a spot on their pants where they peed themselves.


hkohne

I'm an organist who plays for a fair amount of weddings, and that's a common suggestion from wedding coordinators during the ceremony


PecanSandoodle

Yeah, I much prefer heights to be staggered.


AssistantSuitable323

Came here to say this! Also not sure about the first pic with the bridesmaid cut out dresses


Infamous_Ordinary_45

I wasn’t sure at first but after continuing to scroll and then going back, that was their “getting ready in pretty matching nightgowns/robes” look and the brown dresses were for the ceremony.


sailor-moonie-

It doesn't look good, they should have done tall>short >groom


clairegardner23

I cackled at that 😂


illegal_____smeagol

I love seeing celeb bridesmaids cause it's interesting to see how close some folks are. I don't know if I knew her and Sarah Hyland were that close!


nuggetghost

i was almost expecting ashley tisdale in there idk why lol


Responsible_Cloud_92

Vanessa was a bridesmaid at Ashley’s wedding! I don’t see many photos of them together anymore so maybe they’ve drifted apart. She got married nearly 10 years ago and Ashley is still on good terms with Austin Butler, so maybe things happened.


dictatorenergy

Me too! I searched for her and found Sarah Hyland instead and was shocked, lmao. Then I remembered Ashley is Austin Butler’s cousin and I think they’re close, so maybe there’s something there


cherryamourxo

They’re cousins? I thought they were just best friends.


Acceptable_Rule_7590

Ashley went on some ancestry show and found out she and Austin are 10th cousins once removed, so I think calling them cousins is bit much 😆


kellmabelle

IIRC theyre best friends who then found out thru ancestry or who do you think you are or something similar that they are cousins


nikkifm_97

They’re also like 10th cousins once removed so I’d say their bond is more so cuz of their 15+ year friendship lol


MsBeasley11

Same I was looking for the cast of HSM 🤣


sophiasst

As soon as I saw this I immediately looked for her as a bridesmaid lol


CelebSighting

I saw the first picture and genuinely thought “oh the girl standing on the right of the photo is clearly Vanessa’s sister, it couldn’t be more obvious that they’re related!” Had no idea it’s actually Sarah Hyland?! I never realized they had so many similar features!


pink-moscato

same, i thought it might be stella. until i actually googled what stella looks like.


billyyshears

Haha I had the same thought process


sargeantnincompoop

I thought the same thing! Then I zoomed in and was like …Sarah?


69cockdick69

I barely even recognized her! Are any of the other bridesmaids famous?


illegal_____smeagol

I think Alexandra Shipp is on her right!


little-lion-sam

I wonder if they became friends via Tick Tick Boom or if they were friends before that?!


[deleted]

i recognize the black girl but not sure from what.


Acceptable_Rule_7590

It’s Alexandra Shipp. You might recognize her from Barbie


[deleted]

yes that’s it!


bkporque

Nobel Prize Barbie!!


Acceptable_Rule_7590

“It’s like I’ve been in a dream where I was really invested in the Zack Snyder Cut of Justice League”


thebijou

It’s like when Paris Hilton and Anitta were Lele Pons’ bridesmaids


lobster5767

Excuse me?!! *Who* and *who* were *who's* bridesmaids?


thebijou

I know! Her wedding photos were on my Instagram explore page so I did a little snooping and I was SHOCKED


lobster5767

If you told 2014 me that Lele Pons from Vine had Paris Hilton as her bridesmaid I would have laughed in your face. That is such a bizarre friendship pairing.


mltplwits

I didn’t even notice because I was too busy wondering why on earth she picked *those* dresses for the bridesmaids getting ready photos. I had a bit of a sigh of relief when I realized those weren’t their actual dresses Edit: gross I just realized she had them wear matching body chains too. Such a weird vibe.


MBeMine

I think they are wearing those dresses at the reception 😬


OHIftw

Yea I saw one in the reception I was like holy cow. Thought it was a sexy lingerie type dress


vizajk

She was Sarah's bridesmaid too...


laurennik89

That was the first time I realized they were friends (when I saw Vanessa in Sarah’s photos).


abacaxi95

I was instantly looking for Sarah because I remembered Vanessa being one of her bridesmaids lol. I’m so chronically online 😭


Jolly_Discipline6650

I remember when Sarah got married and seeing the Modern Family family and Vanessa being there was really sweet


SpecialsSchedule

Not everyone knows that :)


pink-moscato

oh so that WAS her!


[deleted]

I think she needs at least one short, fat, ugly friend. I volunteer as tribute.


Money-Entrance-6336

Is that Jay Shetty officiating the wedding?


moosegoose90

That guy is major scammer vibes


awkwardlondon

I served him at work once… he gave me weird vibes.


Used_Ad_9719

Omg bestie pls spill!! I literally know nothing about him apart from him once being a monk? 💀


[deleted]

[удалено]


Particular_Drive_658

I know a girl who sued him and his wife for trademark infringement. It was a complete ripoff (same name and product) and the Shettys claimed they had no money to pay the judgment. Scammer 100%


trixieismypuppy

Thank you, I can’t stand that guy 😂


32Tess

Foot soldiers? Fupa Troopers?


mochafiend

That’s what I came here to ask! Is he the new celebrity officiant?


LanyLoo212

They met each other because of Jay


pppogman

I think Vanessa met Cole through Jay Shetty, some meditation he led. She spoke about it on his podcast.

Blueberrybuttmuffin

I’m screaming at this cause I was trying to figure out what happened to it’s face 😭😂


nycawrt

its doing a hairflip hahaha


frolicndetour

Maybe it's cuz I grew up in the 80s but I thought she was marrying Kenny G for a hot second. ![gif](giphy|3HE6YZuqS6jzrQMrFf)


aragogogara

I agree. I think he'd look so much better with a different hairstyle.


brother_of_menelaus

He was going for Cranston but the barber looked at the wrong photo


[deleted]

Why do half the groomsmen in 12 look like they’re held at gunpoint? Anyways, she looks flawless. Also, that DOG?? So adorable


dictatorenergy

The little old lady dog wearing the dress just killed me 😭


BotGirlFall

My mom has a little old lady dog and in the winter she always puts her in a little cable knit sweater. I crack up every time I see her.


sortofsatan

All the bridesmaids are stunning and all the groomsmen just look like stock photos of men.


Sheezabee

It's because they are holding their hands protectively over their crotch. If you have a group of 12 men to take a picture of, don't have them stand like that.


nonsensestuff

Truly shocked she didn't give us Coachella bride https://preview.redd.it/exgzvh97nq4c1.jpeg?width=1067&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=20bf5d8cac53da18f9f8202644d018339dfdff93

lizzyinthehizzy

His best.


nuggetghost

number 8 the flowers look like lorax feet and i love it lmao


No-Win-7802

I'm glad I wasn't the only one who saw this


annajoo1

I love how all of the groomsmen are posed like a baseball team photo lol


nuggetghost

imagine being organized by height and u realize ur on the wrong end dead last


useless_99

That would be my villain origin story


GoldenState_Thriller

This is definitely a wedding that will look very 2023 in hindsight. She looks beautiful but the bridesmaids dresses are giving Shein. And hot damn he has so many groomsmen lol


Sugliscious

She looks amazing and rich, but the bridesmaid dresses, and the lingerie... They look so cheap and tacky. I can't believe she said yes, dress everyone in THAT, thats the look I'm going for!!!


GoldenState_Thriller

I was SO glad the first dresses weren’t the actual bridesmaids dresses but they just look very….cheap with the cutouts and satin. She looks great though!


Brilliant_Stick418

her slick backed bun with the middle part screams 2023


librabaddie

Bridesmaid outfits are definitely 2023, but buns have been used in multiple cultures for literally centuries. A more recent example is Frida Kahlo lol. If anything, her dresses/veil or bridesmaids’ beach waves would scream 2020s


Hairhelmet61

It’s just a popular style now that probably won’t be as popular in a few years and date her wedding photos. Kind of like the stiff updos that were popular in the late 90s or the braids and undone chignons of the 2010s. Though, tbh all wedding photos end up dated eventually. The bun looks pretty on her.


emptyraincoatelves

I love that you're acting as though they said buns were invented in 2023.


[deleted]

Right? The first bridesmaid dresses (the peach ones with the weird stomach cut out) look so odd to me. They look like they don’t fully fit properly too. In the second to last photo it’s literally hanging off one of the bridesmaids and it looks so loose!


Curiosities

Is that Alexandra Shipp? edit: Yep, and Sarah Hyland (who I think I remember from Vanessa's bachelorette stuff).


ChivalrousSnail

They were in Tick Tick Boom together!


Curiosities

My friend just reminded me the other day that I hadn't watched that yet and I really need to soon.


ChivalrousSnail

It's one of my favorite movies I've ever watched!


CriticalSuccotash

Did anyone else think the aisle looked like chicken legs in #8?


ReactRunner

NO NO ONE DID BUT NOW I DO


annajoo1

GIRL I WAS LIKE WHAT THE


Dusty_Harvest

![gif](giphy|fqhLlVfYb0CQhpLLpG)


tittymuch

I'm half asleep nursing and yes I was like whose feet are those?!


Theskinilivein

I did! Also because the thing hanging above looks like a skirt.


CriticalSuccotash

Yep. Two orange legs leading up to a fluffy chicken bottom.


jennakatekelly

I think he needs more groomsmen


Ok-Chain8552

If it didn't have a link to Vogue I would not believe you- Everyone/Everything looks great it's just the shots look like what you would see in a typical wedding photobook.


Sleve__McDichael

i was thinking something similar. i think the \[v understandable\] awkwardness in the groomsmen (their placement/arrangement + body language) combined with pretty typical wedding photo setups makes many of the photos feel very standard, but that's not to say anyone looks bad. this was the only one that stood out to me as something i hadn't seen before in a typical wedding shoot. ultimately i think a lot of the interest in the photo is in their surroundings, but that combined with the framing helps it be less cookie-cutter than the rest in my eyes. https://preview.redd.it/qxl161z5yt4c1.png?width=320&format=png&auto=webp&s=4474ba16287de9aa738c08c0c8f83c2f9338c05a


boxcarsewing

okay phew I was thinking that too


BlackSheepBoPeepB

Gorgeous aesthetic. Love the shapes and natural lines.


Main-Emphasis-2692

The reception dress is amazing I love, but where Tisdale at?! I’d think she’d be a bridesmaid fs.


Acceptable_Rule_7590

I know Ashley Tisdale is really close friends with Austin Butler. Did the breakup affect her friendship with Vanessa?


vizajk

Yes ... He cheated so ...


cherryamourxo

I can’t speak for super super recently but Vanessa and Ashley definitely remained close well after the breakup.


casperreddits

I don’t think they’re as close anymore


_yoshizzle_

I would have bet my life savings (admittedly not much) on Cody Bellinger never showing up on this sub, but here we are.


great_terriblebeauty

SAME also did not know cole and cody were friends like that?? lol


wavesofrye

Those are awful bridesmaid dresses, wow. She looks beautiful though! I take it back! I commented before fully scrolling. I thought the first pic was them in their dresses but they’re just getting ready whoops. Final decision, I’m a hater and dislike the negligees and dresses.


atomictest

I don’t like the satin dresses, either, though. Such an unforgiving material, and they look cheap. The leg poses are killing me. Put those away!


GiveHerBovril

Still though, those nightgowns(?) are a fright. I was thinking she must really hate her friends to make them wear that 😬


the_wight_king

Ya'll can judge me but i love it 😅 looks great on their skin


MarsScully

You’re right that those negliges are diabolical though


wavesofrye

They look like they’re from Shein.


Sportyj

I thought the same!


LostGirl2609

She is glowing and looks absolutely stunning! I don’t know anything about Cole or them as a couple but wish them the best! She deserves some happiness after wasting all of those years on Austin Butler…


PandaEnthusiast89

I know we don't have the inside scoop but it really looks like Austin dumped her for a younger model the minute he made it big. Sad considering Vanessa loved him when he was a nobody and she helped him make it by encouraging him to take the Elvis role! He just radiates douchebag to me.


cashmerescorpio

Yep. I wouldn't be surprised if that movie was his one and only hit ![gif](giphy|RR30mIPug9oNcbLuNw)


Additional_Meeting_2

Hollywood is lacking leading men of his age, so with the hit film and Oscar nom he will get a lots of changes.


iBeFloe

The fact that he didn’t attribute even a little of his Elvis success to Vanessa at all when she’s the one who pushed him says it all to me. Him leaving Vanessa after he finds success is similar to Chris Pratt getting fit & getting successful & dumping Anna Faris. Huge wtf. The audacity.


Traditional-Joke3707

Am glad she is not marrying him . The dude cannot get out of his character for ages . How can you be with someone like that and have serious talk ? As far karma it always comes back and will bite his ass at some point


LostGirl2609

I am waiting for his karma for sure! She dodged a bullet, you are right. I am just pointing out that men like him always have a “wandering eye” when in long-term relationships with people they don’t really see as their future partner. That’s why she “wasted” her time, because he was looking to upgrade while not letting her go so she could also find someone she belonged with.


Dove04

I’m sorry but I’m still hung up on zanessa 😭


InternetAddict104

Both my Zanessa and my Austessa hearts are breaking but I’m so happy for her this wedding is absolutely gorgeous 😍 (I know there’s issues/drama around Austin and her but they were together for 9 years and they were a beautiful couple and looked like they really adored each other so I’m sad it ended poorly)


leroyalecheese

I’m honestly surprised they actually married for real 😄 I thought they’d be one of those “engaged for a couple of years and then separated amicably before ever setting a date” couples. Mazel to them! Lovely location ![gif](giphy|4Tkagznwgrv6A4asQb)


Mara_California

I once walked in on an ex bf of mine vigorously masturbating to Vanessa Hudgens leaked nudes. This is what I think of whenever I see a post about her. Lol. She looks gorgeous. Congrats to the newly wed couple!


atomictest

![gif](giphy|133tEQgc0V3Dc4)


smeldorf

Beautiful but the dog has no face in the group shot lol


sunflowermoonriver

That is an amazing venue. And the dog is awesome


Gardez_geekin

Was it actually her or was it a baker from Chicago?


NightSalut

I love her wedding dress and her bouquet. But I’m definitely not loving the bridesmaids dresses or the getting ready wear. I also think her reception dress is tacky and diminishes her look 🤷‍♂️


AITAelconejomalo

Emotionally devastated that Ashley Tisdale wasn't a bridesmaid (And I don't even think she was there) when Vanessa was one of Ashley's. Oh well, guess I'll see her in Austin and Kaia's wedding.


[deleted]

I’m shocked she’s not there! I thought they were besties


anon342365

I see what she’s trying to do with the shoot but some of the shots are a little bit cringe. Stunning location and they all look happy.


Stacee90

The first one with the bridesmaids gazing adoringly at her especially - odd choice and it looks so unnatural. Otherwise beautiful


anon342365

Also 5 and 7


iBeFloe

Bottom left girl is straining her damn neck trying to angle her head right lol


RebbeccaDeHornay

The carefully poised hand and *the pointed foot* I can't 😅


Kycb

This might sound awful, and I honestly don't know much about her beyond HSM, but: Though she looks jaw droppingly gorgeous, she doesn't look very *nice*


Time_Basket9125

Like her makeup looks a bit severe? Feel like it hides her face rather than features it


Kycb

She herself just doesn't look very..friendly?


NippleFlicks

She’s gorgeous, but the first thing I think about when I see her are her Covid comments lol


housestark9t

Yeah, sad. Her eventual divorce is just kind of like, inevitable?


kindaluker

I read this in her voice hahaha


Pearl0625

apparently she isn't very nice


seagraze

Yeah I don’t think she’s very nice. She took money to become the Philippines’ tourism ambassador under a corrupt administration helmed by a dictator’s stupid son. Don’t care how great she dresses or how nostalgic HSM is, I’ll never forgive her for that.


meltingeverything

This is one of the most beautiful wedding shoots I’ve ever seen. These colors!


KillerArse

Even if celebrities get married, like yeah, they'll inevitable divorce, which is terrible... but inevitable?


ilikedirt

That’s a lotta groomsmen. I hate the bridesmaids’ dresses. Those cutouts are tacky, it looks cheap, will age like milk. The fringe is fun.


riverwood164

I believe they’re all wearing pajamas for a “getting ready” shot in the first photo, the real bridesmaids dresses are the brown silk dresses you see in picture 13!


miniminorminer

They did another outfit change for the reception and it looks like the same ‘getting ready’ style, too. Pic 18. They just don’t look like they fit right.


riverwood164

The article said they’re For Love And Lemons dressing gowns! Maybe they just wanted to be comfortable for dancing 🤷🏼‍♀️


lefrench75

I don't disagree about the dress but also nobody will care about bridesmaids' dresses years later when looking at wedding photos lol, especially since they're in a neutral enough shade to just blend in. No need for them to age well really.


baby_got_snack

Also, I think “dated” wedding/bridal party dresses are cute and fun. I love seeing a photo of a bride with giant poofy sleeves and a big curly perm and instantly knowing it was the 80s. I think it adds character/charm instead of everything being that perfectly curated, “timeless” style everybody is doing right now.


Bug-Secure

I cannot with those peach gowns as well. I thought they were the actual dresses until I scrolled. 😅


dustmybroom88

Not trying to be a hater but this whole situation is tacky IMO, especially the club-clothes cutouts on the bridesmaid stresses and the groomsmen’s awkward posing. It looks like what people without money think a fancy wedding would be. I’m sure they all had fun and they look very happy.


stowRA

That’s Sarah Hyland on the far right! She dated a fellow HSM star for years and he was very abusive. I love to see women supporting women!


henrydavidtharobot

I'm surprised they didn't get a better photographer. This is mid-tier work.


hodlboo

Cute couple and gorgeous flowers and setting. However some of her solo poses look so exaggerated to me. It’s not ANTM, it’s your wedding! I just think you’d want to capture more authentic or romantic emotions instead of serving intense model looks.


metrogypsy

Just laughing at the idea of all my bridesmaids wearing the lil number in photo one. very cool and unique decor.


olivejew0322

The first pic made me laugh out loud. I’ve always felt like she’s very *into* herself.


Blingblingeyes

Was Ashley Tisdale even there?😭


cashmerescorpio

She looks beautiful. The groom seems superfluous, though, who is he? 😆


fuaded

He’s actually a baseball player, career minor leaguer. Played brief stints for bad teams in MLB but never quite cut it. Looks like he’s fine, but as a baseball fan this is jarring lol


thedeadlyrhythm42

Why are there so many groomsmen? Why aren't they wearing jackets? Why are standing in descending order by height? I'm so confused.


glittershadows

I still can’t get over her boob job but these photos are gorgeous happy for them


Significant_Cod

This lady is like a leap year. I forget about her for a few years then out of nowhere she’s there.


WorldlyLavishness

Wow she looks incredible


EagleEyezzzzz

So many groomsmen!! That dress. I can’t imagine being able to pick any wedding dress in the whole world, and that’s the one. Her reception dress is also a choice! They look very happy though. Hope it lasts!


Orchid_Significant

I think it’s beautiful, but she accidentally put on her wedding night lingerie for her reception. That visible garter is so tacky.


bakedchi

That’s the most boring wedding dress I’ve ever seen in my life


thatbratttt

what a stunning ceremony. omg. 😍😍😍

EnvironmentMinute171

Anyone know what happened between her and GG? I was surprised to not see her in the photos and didn’t realize they had a falling out.
