Love was in the air in Hollywood this year as we saw several of our favorite stars tie the knot with their significant others. While some had extravagant occasions, others took the lowkey and intimate route for their nuptials.

Hollywood Actors Jon Hamm & Anna Osceola Got Hitched ‘Mad Men’ Style
“Mad Men” actor Jon Hamm became a husband to his girlfriend of two years, Anna Osceola, on June 24, 2023. The duo had their cozy ceremony in California, at the Anderson Canyon in Big Sur. They were first acquainted in 2015 when Osceola played a receptionist role in the last series of “Mad Men.” Fast forward to 2020, they went public with their romance.
The couple’s wedding venue was the exact filming location for the “Mad Men” finale, and according to the 52-year-old actor, it might have taken him a long time to walk down the aisle, but he was glad to get it right.
“It was very exciting. We did it this summer in beautiful Big Sur. It was a perfect day. It was very sparsely attended, by our decision. It was small, and man, it was great,” the actor emphasized during an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!.”
Although Hamm has never been married, he left a long-term relationship that lasted 18 years before his romance with Osceola. In September 2022, Hamm mentioned on “The Howard Show” that getting married and having children have become a possibility in his life.
Naomi Watts & Billy Crudup Had A Very Private Ceremony
“King Kong” star Naomi Watts secretly tied the knot with her boyfriend of six years, Billy Crudup. The pair disclosed what they did at the courthouse over the summer, and fans were stunned.

Watts and Crudup started their romance in 2017 after starring as a couple in a Netflix series titled “Gypsy.” Although they were in a committed relationship, the duo decided to keep things under wraps, away from the prying eyes of the media.
In February 2022, they debuted their first outing when they graced the Screen Actors Guild Awards red carpet. In April of the same year, Watts was spotted wearing a diamond ring when she appeared on “Today.”
