Jennifer Aniston’s Wedding Dress Secret REVEALED One Gown Never Made It to the Spotlight

Jennifer Aniston is a fashion icon, and she showed off different facets of her sartorial style at her two weddings.

The Friends alum has been married and divorced twice, both times to famous actors — Brad Pitt and Justin Theroux.

Her first wedding to Pitt took place 26 years ago. The pair wed in a beachside ceremony in Malibu, Calif., on July 29, 2000. For the lavish nuptials, attended by 200 guests, Aniston wore a beaded silk-and-satin gown, while Pitt opted for a traditional black tux. They were married for five years before announcing their separation in January 2005, and the two have remained on amicable terms.

Aniston later met Theroux on a film set in 2007. They didn’t start dating right away, but reconnected when they filmed Wanderlust together in 2011. After getting engaged in August 2012, the couple tied the knot in a secret backyard ceremony in Bel Air, Calif., in front of 70 guests on Aug. 5, 2015. Few details have been released about the wedding, but Aniston reportedly wore a cream strapless dress. They announced their split in February 2018.

Speaking to Elle in January 2019, Aniston shared that she views both of her marriages as “successful” and doesn’t put emphasis on her relationship status.

“I don’t feel a void. I really don’t. My marriages, they’ve been very successful, in [my] personal opinion,” she said. “And when they came to an end, it was a choice that was made because we chose to be happy, and sometimes happiness didn’t exist within that arrangement anymore.”

Here’s everything to know about Aniston’s two wedding dresses.

Aniston married Pitt in a beaded gown by Lawrence Steele

For her wedding to Pitt, Aniston chose a halter-neck gown crafted from silk and satin. The floor-length dress featured a low back and was covered in glass bead embellishments.

A source told PEOPLE in 2000 that the Horrible Bosses actress wanted her gown “to be sexy but pretty ... and definitely designed to show off her toned arms.”

The beaded number was designed by Lawrence Steele, a Milan-based designer, who also created pale green slip dresses for Aniston’s two bridesmaids, actress Andréa Bendewald and documentary filmmaker Kristin Hahn-Stringer, and cream silk frocks for the flower girls.

Aniston accessorized with a white veil and crown

Aniston complemented the beading on her wedding gown with sparkling accessories.

She opted for straight locks, atop which she reportedly wore a pearl-and-Swarovski-crystal crown with a traditional white circular veil draped over it.

The actress completed her bridal look with a pair of four-inch ivory suede Manolo Blahnik heels.

Aniston reportedly married Theroux in a cream strapless gown

Aniston’s 2015 nuptials to Theroux were kept under wraps, so little information is known about her dress for her second wedding.

A source told PEOPLE at the time that Aniston’s cream gown was “strapless, elegant and flowy.”

“It was very simple, but beautiful,” another source told PEOPLE. “It wasn’t a white color — it was like an off-white, cream color. Very classy, fitted well and simple.”

While no designer has ever been confirmed, reps for Versace, Gucci and Vivienne Westwood all said at the time that they did not design Aniston’s frock.

The wedding ring designer, however, is known — those were designed by the then-couple’s close friend Jennifer Meyer, a rep for the celeb-loved jeweler confirmed to PEOPLE at the time.

Aniston kept her second wedding dress a secret

Aniston preferred to keep the details of her second wedding dress private. During an August 2015 interview with Entertainment Tonight, the actress chose not to speak about her intimate ceremony as a whole.

“We had the beautiful luxury of having a beautiful private moment, and I’m going to be selfish and keep it that way!” she said. “I’m not telling you about any of that stuff!”

However, before she and Theroux tied the knot, Aniston told Extra in April 2013 that she didn’t spend an excessive amount of time thinking about her gown options.

“I don’t have a dress,” she said. “That’s something that will probably come all together at the last minute. I like to be very spontaneous.”

Aniston said she wouldn’t wear an updo for her wedding

While the bridal accessories Aniston wore for her wedding to Theroux are a mystery, she told Marie Claire in June 2013 that she planned to stick to her signature hairstyle.

“For my wedding, I wouldn’t do an updo, but I think a veil is always pretty,” she said. “I like loose and natural hair because it goes against the formality of the dress. Loose, like ‘I just got out of bed, maybe had a romp’ hair.”

In January 2026, Brides reported that sources said Aniston went off-the-rack for her dress and reportedly opted for a veil from J.Crew.
