It’s fair to say that we’re obsessed with the on-again, off-again couple, Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson. Between their whirlwind romances and public breakups (they even made an official statement regarding the end of their engagement), it’s fair to say that we’ve been waiting years for this movie-star couple to make their grandest red carpet moments once again.
And boy, did they ever. From the very first glimpse of Rob in that iconic Dolce and Gabanna wedding dress to finally seeing the woman he promised to marry walk down the aisle in a wedding dress fit for a queen, this year’s Oscars were the epitome of cinematic romance. Even the cast and crew of the movie couldn’t help but feel the chemistry between these two dreamy movie stars. So as one of the most iconic movie-star weddings of all time draws to a close, let’s take a look back at some of the most interesting facts about the iconic Kristen Stewart / Robert Pattinson marriage.
No Rings
Even though this was one of the most memorable weddings of all time, the happy couple didn’t show off their blushing bridal bouquet or giggle-inducing good-luck kiss. In fact, they opted out of traditional wedding jewelry and opted for a simple promise ring. This was a bold move on their part, but it paid off in spades. The pair had been dating for a year before their wedding day, and with no previous engagements in mind, they decided to forgo any form of jewelry in favor of creating a lasting bond.
They may have given up their diamond earrings, but they certainly didn’t keep their promise to each other. The pair constantly proves that their love is genuine by demonstrating their commitment to each other through public displays of affection. Whether they’re snuggling up on an airplane or passionately making out on a beach, these Hollywood stars never seem to shy away from the cameras. And the fact that they can still pull off a romantic scene, even after all these years, speaks volumes about their charm and poise.
An Ambling Alarm Claxon
For those of you who’ve been patiently waiting for the return of your sweetheart, rejoice. Thanks to that magical spell that is Instagram, you no longer have to settle for crummy smartphone cameras and lacklustre lighting to capture your loved one’s pretty face on film. No, with the help of some clever technology and a little bit of magic, your digital photographer can produce images that are close to what you’d get from a traditional film crew.
That’s right, folks. Digital photography has advanced to such a degree that it’s now possible to shoot amazing portraits and weddings using only your smartphone. With the help of apps like Photoshop Express, you can easily edit photos and add your own special touches to create memories that will last a lifetime.

Just make sure that you order the luxury goods ahead of the wedding day, so that you’ll have them in time for the big day.
Wedding Plans
While the wedding day was all about the love and devotion between this star-crossed couple, their journey to the altar was no less captivating. According to the New York Times, the couple began planning their wedding ten months before the big day. Even then, they opted to keep the ceremony a low-cost affair. As a result, many of their wedding details were DIYed. From picking out their outfit to the bouquet toss, the couple took on the task of planning their wedding themselves. They even designed their invitations and printed them themselves.
However, the biggest DIY project that these creative types undertook was the buffet. Due to time constraints and money concerns, the pair decided to forgo an elaborate sit-down wedding dinner and opted for a food truck that would serve their guests wedding cake, canapés and drinks. As a result, their guests were treated to an array of tantalizing food trucks lined up outside the church. With each truck serving a different course, the wedding banquet was a truly unique experience. The trucks even had license plates that read WEDDING, which really added to the fanciful feel of the event. This was truly an innovative and cost-conscious way to celebrate a wedding. And what’s more, it kept the costs down and saved the couple’s money for other aspects of the wedding.
The Grand Tour
Another way that this wedding was unique was in the way that it was planned. The pair decided to take a long break from their hectic schedules and instead explored Europe in a long trip that lasted over a year. They began their trip with a visit to Paris, where they stayed in the most luxurious hotel in the city. While there, they visited the famed Eiffel Tower and soaked in the city’s romantic vibes. And what’s more, they got to watch the sunset behind the iconic tower from the comfort of their hotel room. This was quite an experience, especially as dusk turned into night and the tower’s illumination turned on.
The trip from Paris was filled with romantic stops, including Italy, where they ate polka dots and danced around a campfire, and Scotland, where they stayed in a mansion and dined on seafood. All in all, it was an incredible trip that filled their hearts and souls with joy. When they returned from their journey, the couple decided to put a romantic twist on their itinerary and spent Christmas in Rome, where they lit up the city with their smile and engaged in some public displays of affection. Even the greatest of romances can seem mundane when viewed through the lens of a travel log.
A Dolce, and Then Some
Besides the fact that this was one of the most memorable weddings of all time, it was also filled with gorgeous details. From the very first glimpse of Rob in that iconic Dolce and Gabanna wedding dress to finally seeing the woman he promised to marry walk down the aisle in a wedding dress fit for a queen, this year’s Oscars were the epitome of cinematic romance. Even the cast and crew of the movie couldn’t help but feel the chemistry between these two dreamy movie stars.
