The 48-year-old star of the iconic movie Twilight got married for the first time

American actress Elizabeth Reaser, best known for her role as Esme Cullen in the iconic vampire movie saga Twilight, has secretly gotten married. This was the first marriage for the 48-year-old star.

The actress decided to build a family with producer and composer Bruce Gilbert, with whom she lived next door in the Silver Lake neighborhood of Los Angeles. The couple had been hiding their new status as husband and wife for more than six months, but finally decided to share the good news in an exclusive interview with Vogue.

The actress and musician held an atmospheric ceremony in Italy back in August 2023. The event was secret, and only three bridesmaids were invited. The couple initially planned to invite more guests, but in the course of preparations, they realized that they wanted an intimate, quiet celebration for just the two of them.

Yes, the couple refused the services of a wedding planner and arranged everything themselves. The wedding photographer was a close friend of one of the bridesmaids, actress Megan Ferguson, Sean Connell.

Reaser walked down the aisle to the sounds of a mandolin and guitar, and the newlyweds performed their first dance to Cucurrucucu Paloma by Brazilian singer Caetano Veloso.

"It was an emotional experience. Something happened to us when we said our vows. It changed everything. I was trying not to cry the whole time, and then I started laughing. It was so good that we stopped at the aisle and had an impromptu first dance. I think it was the purest moment of happiness in my life," the actress said.

Of course, the image of the bride attracts the most attention. Reaser chose a translucent stylish outfit from the Danielle Frankel brand worth $12,500.

The elongated top with thin straps emphasized the fragility of the figure, and the delicate embroidery of pearls and transparent storks created a luxurious accent. The midi skirt, also decorated with embroidery, was in harmony with the top, making the look a single whole. The lack of lining made the look light, airy and appropriately seductive.

A transparent ribbon worn as a choker emphasized the elegance of the neckline, and white Manolo Blahnik x Danielle Frankel mules complemented the look with elegance. Simple hairstyle, makeup and manicure did not overload the look, emphasizing the sophistication of the outfit. Meanwhile, the earrings presented by the bridesmaids for the wedding became a touching personal touch, and the bag in the form of a large pearl egg by Simone Rocha added originality and completeness to the look.

As the actress told reporters, she and Bruce had lived in the same neighborhood in Los Angeles for eight years, but hadn't communicated at all. In 2017, fate decided to give them a chance to meet. Elizabeth invited her friends to her house to play with the dogs in the backyard. That same evening, Bruce was walking with his four-legged friend on the same street. One of the actress's friends noticed him and decided to invite him to join the company.

The next morning, the musician, fascinated by the actress, asked his friends for her phone number. From that day on, their relationship began to develop. Now the star recalls this story with warmth and humor, saying that she and her husband "owe everything to their dogs." In the summer of 2022, during a romantic trip to Italy, the composer proposed marriage to his beloved. This touching moment ended with a dance to Beyoncé's unexpectedly rhythmic Summer Renaissance track.
