The celebration in Montecito, California may be over, but the wedding ideas the couple served will serve as a source of inspiration for many years to come.&nbsp;</p><p>Finneas and Claudia met through a dating app in September 2018. They clicked so well immediately that they moved in together a year later and got engaged in September 2025. Almost eight years into their relationship, the two took their relationship to the next level by getting married on August 29, 2026.&nbsp;</p><p>In an <a href="https://www.vogue.com/slideshow/finneas-and-claudia-sulewski-wedding" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">exclusive interview with <em>Vogue</em></a>, Claudia shared that they were set on Southern California as their venue and &quot;that there be a real emphasis on live music and farm-to-table vegetarian food.&quot;&nbsp;</p><div><strong>Here are all the details we loved from Finneas and Claudia Sulewski&#39;s wedding:</strong></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788842538510Mr. & Mrs. O’Connell for the rest of timeWe feel so much gratitude to each one of our guests for (8).jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><strong>Their big &quot;day&quot; wasn&#39;t just a day&mdash;it was a weekend affair!</strong></div><p>Multi-day weekend wedding gatherings have become a trend in recent years. Doing so is the way to go when a couple is having a destination wedding, which may involve guests flying in from around the world. This weekend usually starts with a rehearsal dinner, as was the case in Finneas and Claudia&#39;s wedding. On the night before their big day, Claudia wrote on Instagram, &quot;We had our closest Nat, Rebecca, Dru, and David speak at our rehearsal dinner. Laughed and cried in the California heat.&quot;</p><div><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788844751002797452243_18639209740039447_8180776191704736428_n.jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788844812684798537821_18639209563039447_8186782779525050190_n a.jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788844848065798537821_18639209563039447_8186782779525050190_n b.jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><strong>Claudia&#39;s Oscar de la Renta wardrobe</strong></div><p>Stylist Thomas Christos Kikis helped the bride complete her wardrobe for the multi-day occasion, which featured four custom looks by Oscar de la Renta. Claudia&#39;s bridal ensembles were a low-back satin gown for the rehearsal dinner (accessorized with Tiffany &amp; Co.), a silk faille ballgown with a neck scarf detail for the ceremony, a strapless column dress with a feather-accentuated waist for the reception, and a pink cropped top and pink bubble skirt for the after-party. A chic modern bride, Claudia showed how one can achieve a balance between classic elegance and modern-day sophistication.&nbsp;</p><p>Finneas matched his bride with custom Prada. And fun fact: their dogs Peaches and Mousse wore Oscar de la Renta dog bows made of the same material as Claudia&rsquo;s ceremony gown.&nbsp;</p><div><br></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788843870224@Finneas and @ClaudiaSulewski’s love story began as many modern love stories do- on a dating app (1).jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788844288732797773599_18639209530039447_7090293388185299055_n.jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788844275590@Finneas and @ClaudiaSulewski’s love story began as many modern love stories do- on a dating app (2).jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788844314233@Finneas and @ClaudiaSulewski’s love story began as many modern love stories do- on a dating app.jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788845504578Mr. & Mrs. O’Connell for the rest of timeWe feel so much gratitude to each one of our guests for (11).jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788844323554@Finneas and @ClaudiaSulewski’s love story began as many modern love stories do- on a dating app (4).jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788845003288797840896_18639140701039447_9209978191697737133_n.jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788844074069798273349_18639572287039447_5078727835585847606_n.jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788845022208@Finneas and @ClaudiaSulewski’s love story began as many modern love stories do- on a dating app (6).jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><strong>The warmth and coziness of the elegant celebration</strong></div><p>As Finneas and Claudia&#39;s outdoor wedding in <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sanysidroranch/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>San Ysidro Ranch</strong></a><strong>&nbsp;</strong>showed, warm and cozy can be synonymous with classy and elegant. First of all, the intimate guest list ensured a truly heartfelt and personal occasion.&nbsp;</p><p>&quot;We wanted our dinner to feel like we were hosting it in the backyard of our home,&quot; Claudia told <em>Vogue</em>. &quot;<em></em>That intention influenced our wooden tables&mdash;sans tablecloths&mdash;our pots of lavender, wood-handled flatware, and curation of candlesticks and cups. It just felt so homey and so us. After my quick change, we ran over to the putt-putt golf course and hit a few balls before it was time to join everyone for dinner as husband and wife!&rdquo;</p><p>Music courtesy of Finneas, his sister Billie Eilish, and his constant collaborator Ash made the celebration even more meaningful, fun, and memorable.&nbsp;</p><div><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788845362854@Finneas and @ClaudiaSulewski’s love story began as many modern love stories do- on a dating app (3).jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788845474936Mr. & Mrs. O’Connell for the rest of timeWe feel so much gratitude to each one of our guests for (9).jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788845487018Mr. & Mrs. O’Connell for the rest of timeWe feel so much gratitude to each one of our guests for.jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788845604460798404394_18639140770039447_8083038332920798127_n.jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><strong></strong></div><div><br></div><div><img src="https://od2-image-api.abs-cbn.com/prod/editorImage/1788845753082@Finneas and @ClaudiaSulewski’s love story began as many modern love stories do- on a dating app (5).jpg" style="width: 960px;" class="fr-fic fr-dib" width="960"></div><div><br></div><p>Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. O&#39;Connell!</p><div><br></div><div><strong>Finneas and Claudia&#39;s dream team:&nbsp;</strong></div><p>Planning/production/design: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/alisonandbryan/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@alisonandbryan</a></p><p>Photography: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/normanandblake/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@normanandblake</a></p><p>Video: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dear.vincent/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@dear.vincent</a></p><p>Reception music: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/feistmusic/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@feistmusic</a> &amp; <a href="https://www.instagram.com/dartcollective/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@dartcollective</a></p><p>Catering: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/sanysidroranch/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@sanysidroranch</a> made vegetarian</p><p>Cake: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/francesbakingco/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@francesbakingco</a>&nbsp;</p><div>&nbsp;</div><p>Photos by&nbsp;<strong>@normanandblake</strong></p>
