Vip weddings celebrated in 2020 (despite Covid)

2020 was certainly not a year for weddings: many couples forced to postpone the long desired (and planned) big day with heavy consequences on the entire wedding sector. No problem, however, for those who “just the two of us”. And they do the low profile they managed to exchange promises without too much difficulty, even in the middle of the pandemic.

Among the first to say “yes”, when the Coronavirus was still confined to China and did not cause great concern in the West, Michelle Williams e Thomas Kail. The actress and director got married in secret in January, but the confirmation came only in March. Officially engaged for a year, both in their second marriage, a few months later they would also become parents. Baby’s name and gender are still top secret.

Secret weddings also for Scarlett Johansson e Colin Jost. The ceremony was held in March, but the news leaked in October, an example of how it is possible to get married without too much fanfare, if you really want to, and even manage not to let it be known for months. For Scarlett it was the third marriage after the one with the colleague Ryan Reynolds, and the one with the journalist Romain Dauriac, for Colin the first: that she has finally found her soul mate? Those who know them well assure you yes.

The established routines of royal weddings were also undermined by the pandemic, but Beatrice of York has always been a discreet girl, she did not dream of getting married in Windsor like her sister Eugenie and cousin Harry, or throwing a big party. Thus, also thanks to the difficult situation of his father Andrea, involved in the Epstein scandal, he preferred to say “yes” to his Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi in the chapel of St. James Palace. For the occasion she wore a dress of her grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, adapted for the occasion, and the same tiara chosen by the sovereign on her wedding day with Philip of Edinburgh. A beautiful tribute, undoubtedly good luck. Bea just wanted to get married, and the pandemic, after all, helped her not to get too noticed.

Discreet wedding even among the famous Italians, from those of Manuela Arcuri, who got married in Las Vegas with Giovanni di Gianfrancesco, to those of Nicoletta Mantovani. Luciano Pavarotti’s widow went to the altar for the second time with Alberto Tinarelli, a financial consultant known thanks to a mutual friend. The wedding was in Bologna, in front of 150 guests. Not quite a ceremony low profile, but in September the second wave of Covid-19 was still far away.

None, however, was more original than Sean Penn. The actor and his 28-year-old girlfriend Leila George, at his side since 2016, they were in their own home, the officiant connected to the pc. “We had a Covid-19 wedding,” confirmed Sean, 60, al Late Night Show. “I mean the county manager was on the line Zoom ed we were at home: we, my two children and his brother “.
A decidedly unconventional choice, but aren’t love and intentions the only things that really matter?
