The To All The Boys I’ve Loved Before actor Lana Condor, 27, and Anthony De La Torre, actor, and musician, 30, seem to have found their forever love in each other as they tied the knot in a private and intimate ceremony at Serra Franciscan Retreat Center in Malibu, California.
The location is deeply significant to Condor, as she shared cherished moments with her late mother during high school at the women’s spiritual retreat center, the memories that she will treasure for a lifetime.
Understanding that her family, heartbroken by the loss of their beloved Mary, would still want them to celebrate their love, the actress chose to hold the ceremony atop the Malibu mountains. This decision was made hoping to feel her mother’s presence on their wedding day.
Anthony, too, had a similar experience on his visit years ago of finding solace and answers while he was going through a rough phase in his life. Looking back at their individual experiences and the profound meaning they hold, Serra Retreat seemed like the perfect wedding place for their special occasion.
For her wedding, Condor chose a strapless and corseted timeless Vera Wang white gown, hand-picked during a dress-shopping trip with her mother and bridesmaids two years prior. The only time the mother beheld her daughter in the wedding gown, it displayed classic beauty and sheer youthful elegance.
Meanwhile, Anthony, the groom-to-be, was seen decked out in a classic and elegant black and white tuxedo. To further customize his look, he added his initials embroidered on the cuff of his shirt, and for his reception look, he monogrammed Lana’s name into the cuffs, symbolizing a more profound meaning: that he was fully hers.
The intimate celebration witnessed Condor’s father walking her daughter down the aisle and Anthony’s mother present for his entrance. The October wedding couple shared their ultimate life vows against the serene backdrop and closets of friends and family.
As the newlyweds marked their new beginning in life and the wedding weekend drew closer to the end, the couple hosted the guests with an intimate farewell brunch, during which they could receive tattoos. The pair was seen receiving matching tattoos of their wedding dates, marking their first tattoo together.
Locking eyes at the Emmy party night of 2015 to their vow of holding hands for a lifetime, the couple’s nine-year journey grew nothing short of magical. Their heartfelt ceremony overflowed with joyous moments and happy tears, changing their course of lives for the better.
