Anya Taylor-Joy, known for her role in 'The Queen's Gambit,' recently shared never-before-seen photos from her secret 2022 wedding with husband Malcolm McRae on their second anniversary. The couple tied the knot in New Orleans two years ago on April Fools' Day, with Taylor-Joy describing the day as magical and unforgettable.
The wedding photos and videos posted by Taylor-Joy showcased moments from their special day, including the actress in her stunning Dior wedding dress adorned with a large hummingbird stitched on the bodice. The venue was beautifully decorated with candles, creating a romantic atmosphere.
One of the highlights of the celebration was the anatomically correct heart-shaped cakes that the couple enjoyed, adding a unique touch to their festivities. Taylor-Joy humorously referenced herself as the vampire Lestat from Anne Rice's 'The Vampire Chronicles' series, alluding to the unconventional cake design.
The couple's second wedding ceremony took place in Venice, Italy, at the historic Palazzo Pisani Moretta, a 15th-century palace on the Grand Canal. The star-studded event included guests such as Julia Garner, Nicolas Hoult, Cara Delevingne, and Miles Teller with his wife, Keleigh.
Taylor-Joy and McRae first met at a premiere event for 'The Queen's Gambit' in March 2021, where sparks flew between them. McRae was so captivated by Taylor-Joy that he wrote a song for her just two days after meeting her, showcasing the depth of his feelings.
The couple's relationship blossomed, leading to a second wedding ceremony and a public acknowledgment of their romance. Taylor-Joy expressed her happiness in finding a partner who shares her interests, describing their relationship as a blend of youthful energy and old-soul companionship.
