A Star-Studded Affair: Inside Matty Healy and Gabbriette Bechtel’s Gothic Hollywood Nuptials
The 1975’s frontman, Matty Healy, has officially tied the knot with model and creative force Gabbriette Bechtel. The couple exchanged vows in a high-profile ceremony held at the iconic Castillo del Lago in Los Angeles-a historic estate once owned by pop legend Madonna. The event was a masterclass in moody elegance, drawing a crowd of industry heavyweights and close friends.
The Aesthetic: Old Hollywood Meets Dark Romance
Moving away from traditional wedding palettes, the newlyweds requested an “Old Hollywood Glamour” dress code with a distinctively dark, gothic edge-a perfect reflection of Gabbriette’s signature aesthetic. The atmosphere was sophisticated yet edgy, blending the grandeur of the historic venue with a modern, monochromatic color scheme.
Among the first to arrive were Charli XCX and her husband, The 1975 drummer George Daniel. The pair leaned into the theme, showcasing a coordinated all-black look. Charli XCX commanded attention in a dramatic, ruffled wrap gown featuring a daring thigh-high slit and a deep neckline. She accessorized with Jimmy Choo Love slingbacks, a minimalist black clutch, and sharp, square-framed Bulgari sunglasses. Daniel complemented her look with a timeless, sharp-cut black suit, complete with a matching shirt and tie.
A Gathering of Fashion-Forward Guests
The guest list was a testament to the couple’s influence in the fashion and music spheres. Attendees embraced the dark, vintage-inspired dress code with creative flair:
- Devon Lee Carlson and Duke Nicholson: The influencer, who recently celebrated her own engagement, attended with her fiancé. Carlson opted for a striking vintage Roberto Cavalli piece, featuring a bold gray and black cheetah print.
- Sydney Carlson: Keeping with the vintage theme, Sydney channeled the 1930s in a beaded flapper-style dress that utilized a sophisticated cream and black palette.
The choice of Castillo del Lago as a venue added a layer of cinematic history to the proceedings. As of 2024, the estate remains one of the most sought-after private properties in the Hollywood Hills, often serving as a backdrop for high-fashion editorials and exclusive celebrity gatherings. By hosting their nuptials at such a storied location, Healy and Bechtel solidified their status as one of the most influential couples in contemporary pop culture.
