Stephanie Beatriz has said “I do!” The Brooklyn Nine-Nine star, who plays Rosa Diaz on the Fox-turned-NBC sitcom, married Brad Hoss on Saturday, October 6, in Los Angeles.

According to People, the couple tied the knot in front of nearly 300 friends and relatives, including Beatriz’s costars Chelsea Peretti, Andy Samberg, and Melissa Fumero.

Speaking with the mag ahead of the wedding, the actress said that she and her costars were excited to let loose at the reception. “That’s all we talked about this last week at work. We were just like, ‘Yeah, we can’t wait to party!'” she quipped.

“I think Andy’s excited to have another Hot Cheetos burrito. I think all of us are excited to dance. That’s one of our favorite things to do when we’re out all together, at a birthday party or whatever,” she continued. “Everybody loves to hit that dance floor. And not for nothing, all of them are pretty new parents. They deserve a night to just let loose and celebrate life, and I’m really, really excited that they’re all gonna be there to celebrate with me.”

Beatriz and her husband planned the big day themselves. “We decided that we wanted it to really reflect us,” she explained to People. “So for us that meant being involved every step of the way, meaning that we didn’t hire a wedding planner.”

The wedding’s theme was Los Angeles, where the newlyweds live. “We’re kind of doing a lot of theatrical recreations of our favorite stuff in LA,” she told the mag. “Like, the flora and fauna and how no matter the time of year something is blooming.” The reception also featured special LA-themed rooms and food trucks instead of buffets.

Beatriz wore a lace gown from Grace Loves Lace, while Hoss opted for a light gray suit.

According to Us Weekly, the couple decided to forgo presents and instead ask guests to donate to one of their favorite charities, The Trevor Project, Lake Geauga Recovery Centers, The Grey Muzzle Organization, and the Eva Longoria Foundation.

Um, Chris Evans Basically Just Said He Wants Kids With Alba Baptista

Chris Evans is one celebrity heartthrob that just about the entire internet loves. He's kind, he's romantic, and he has one of the greatest laughs ever. If you haven't read up on how much of a romantic the actor and director is, let me tell you, it's swoon-worthy. He told ET Online he considers himself “a very romantic guy" and that he's "romantic with [his] love of music or art or nature," and told ELLE that "if you're ever fortunate enough to love someone and have them love you back, it's worth protecting that." Again I say: swoon!

Chris is a pretty private person, but over the years, he's admitted just how much he wanted to settle down. Well, a little over a month ago, he finally tied the knot with fiancée Alba Baptista! 🎉 Here's everything you need to know about the wedding and the star-studded guest list.

The latest news on Chris Evans & Alba Baptista's relationship.

  • Chris Evans is known for being "a very romantic guy."
  • He tied the knot with Alba Baptista in September 2023.
  • The couple reportedly had two "wonderful and beautiful" weddings, one in Massachusetts and one in Portugal.

Does Chris Evans have kids?

No Chris Evans and Alba Baptista don't have any children — yet. But Chris is more than open to the idea of starting a family in the future. When Access Hollywood asked him if he thinks he'll be a "superhero" dad one day, he responds with "Yeah, I hope so. Yeah, absolutely. The title of dad is an exciting one."

This is one celebrity who would make an amazing dad!

Was Chris Evans at the Oscars 2024?

While Chris Evans and Alba Baptista might not have been at the Oscars, they did make headlines for getting cozy after the pre-Oscars party — and then made their red carpet debut at the Vanity Fair Oscars after-party! The couple looked amazing in black, white, and red (very Oscar-appropriate), and simple silhouettes & minimalist accessories gave them an overall romantic, relaxed look.

After a video speculating Alba and Chris might have separated after the actress was seen without her wedding ring, the couple showed up to the premiere of Chris Evans' new movie Red One and shared a hug on the carpet. And at the November 11 NYC premiere of the film, the couple showed up in complementary outfits and had their arms around each other. Don't worry, romantics — this couple doesn't seem to be going anywhere.

Where did Chris Evans and Alba Baptista get married?

Chris Evans and Alba Baptista had a small ceremony on September 9 at their home near Boston, Massachusetts. According to Page Six (who first broke the nuptial news), guests had to sign NDAs and give up their phones throughout the course of the wedding to keep everything private.

Guests included family and close friends of the couple. When I saw that list included Scarlett Johansson, Robert Downey Jr., Chris Hemsworth, and Jeremy Renner, who all costarred with Chris Evans in the MCU, I genuinely had to fight the tears. See a photo here!

It also appears that Jamie Chung and Bryan Greenburg, as well as John Krasinki and Emily Blunt, attended the wedding as well.

What has Chris Evans said about his marriage to Alba Baptista?

Over the weekend, Peoplereported that Chris finally opened up about his marriage during New York Comic Con! Not only did the lucky audience get to see his wedding band but they also learned Chis and Alba hadtwo weddings. The second one was in Portugal which makes perfect sense given the fact Alba is from Lisbon, Portugal.

Happily gushing about both ceremonies, Chris said they were "wonderful and beautiful." He also mentioned he and Alba have been focusing on embracing this new season in their lives while gearing up to enjoy all fall has to offer. He truly is a dreamy and romantic man.

How did Chris Evans meet Alba Baptista?

Fans have speculated that the actors met in the summer of 2021, when they were both in Europe filming (he was filming Netflix action flick The Gray Man opposite Ana de Armas and she was filming Warrior Nun). After interacting with each other on social media, People reported in November 2022 the couple had been dating "for over a year and it's serious...They are in love and Chris has never been happier. His family and friends all adore her."

Throughout 2022, Chris posted jump-scare videos on Instagram (where he would scare his family members, and then they'd scare him), and at the beginning of 2023, he made his relationship with Alba Instagram official by posting a compilation of videos where the couple scared each other!

Who is Alba Baptista?

Manolo Pavón/Netflix

Alba Baptista is an award-winning actress who we've seen in titles like Warrior Nun and Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris. She won the Berlin Film Festival's European Shooting Star Award and the award for Best Actress at the Festival Iberico de Cine, and on top her awards, she was also named one of IMDb’s Top 10 Breakout Stars of 2020!

We hope we get to see Chris Evans and Alba Baptista together in a movie soon ;).

Harry Potter fans love Ginny Weasley for her tenacity, strength, and wit, and the actress who portrays her, Bonnie Wright, is just as powerful. Wright might have tied the knot in March of 2022, but her latest interview with Brides lets us to relive the magic all over again (and get some never-before-seen shots of her special day).

Wright got married at The Ecology Center in San Juan Capistrano, California surrounded by friends and family. If we've learned anything from Wright's go gently YouTube channel, it's that she loves all things intentional and natural, and we're obsessed with how she showcased that on her big day.

"We loved the idea of being surrounded by bountiful growing nourishing plants as we said 'we do,'" Wright tells Brides. Thanks to all of the friends involved, the day was "intimate and easy to organize." You really can't ask for more when it comes to wedding planning!

BRIDES on Instagram: "Harry Potter actress Bonnie Wright's wedding was a celebration of love, community, and sustainability. 🌍💐 "It was important to reflect our love for the environment and use sustainable materials instead of any single-use packaging, lean into our creativity and make things ourselves, and source everything as locally and seasonally as possible," @thisisbwright shared with Brides.

Everyone at the wedding went down a walkway lined with flowers and rainbow arches, including the wedding party and the couple — all of whom stuck to the peach, yellow, and blue-green color palette. Pops of orange added a vibrant edge that feels flirty and fun!

When it came to the ceremony, Wright's personal touches truly shined. Her engagement ring was designed by her parents, jewelry designers Wright & Teague, and instead of traditional vows, the couple read each other love letters. One of Wright's bridesmaids also performed a song that she had written for them during the ceremony!

In addition to the bright colors, our favorite aspect of the event is the menu! Dinner was inspired by chef and friend Amanny Ahmad's Palestinian background, from salads with kumquat vinaigrette to rice and lentils with minted yogurt dressing.

The cocktails were also inspired by the bride and groom. The Wright Water featured sparkling rose, soda, and a slice of orange, while the Lococo Fire mixed mezcal, ancho reyes rojo, contratto aperitivo, and bitters.

And you can't forget the cake! Picnic Baked Goods provided a citrus olive oil cake with salted vanilla and swiss merengue buttercream and a flourless chocolate cake. Our mouths are watering.

Glen Powell Had The Best Reaction To Amanda Seyfried Accidentally Flashing Him: "My Boobs Fell Out"

We all know Glen Powell is quite the gentleman. He had the sweetest reaction to Sydney Sweeney clapping back at her body shamers, and offered Lily James his coat in London's classic drizzly weather. And Mean Girls star Amanda Seyfried just revealed one moment at the 2023 Critics Choice Awards where he proved, yet again, just how great he is when she accidentally flashed him and he came to her rescue!

Here's what Amanda Seyfried had to say about accidentally flashing Glen Powell at the 2023 Critics Choice Awards.

Amanda Seyfried's dress "fell apart" at the 2023 Critics Choice Awards.

The 2023 Critics Choice Awards had some pretty memorable moments (like Everything Everywhere All At Once winning Best Picture) but for Amanda Seyfried, who was nominated that night for her role in The Dropout, one moment stands out in particular: her dress "falling apart."

“My boobs fell out of my dress at the 2023 Critics Choice Awards," Amanda says in an interview with People. "I was wearing this amazing vintage dress. I made my stylist dress up in it before I went just for fun. It was kind of sewn together and it started truly falling apart, literally falling off of me on the red carpet, and I think there were even interviews where I’m saying it’s breaking off.”

And then her "boobs fell out" in front of Glen Powell.

The gown was a beautiful gold Dior Haute Couture dress with two panels knotted together over her chest. But while the dress held together (for the most part), it didn't take long for the dress to give out. “I was talking to Glen Powell in the corner near my table, and we were joking around about something and I lifted my arms up, and my boobs were just out. My dress fell apart,” she continues. “We both screamed, and like the gentleman he is, he covered me. He didn’t look… I think. None of us were expecting that, but that dress had truly just given up.”

All I can hear is the line from "Dishes Breakin'" where Rihanna just sings "a man" over and over again. Respectful, hilarious, and helpful? I think I just fell in love with Glen Powell even more!
