All the Details From Marc Jacobs and Char Defrancesco's New York Wedding
On Saturday, Marc Jacobs married his longtime boyfriend, Charly "Char" Defrancesco, after getting engaged with the help of a flashmob in a Chipotle a year ago. The whole affair was, to say the least, extremely thoughtfully put together-right down to the party-favor hoodies. The pair exchanged vows at an intimate ceremony in New York City, but the reception, at The Grill in Midtown, was where things really got festive.
Adorable animals were true love mascots of the evening. Jacobs and Defrancesco wore matching diamond and onyx penguin pins (a notable reference to the fact that penguins mate for life). The pins were a gift from Prada and Miu Miu design director Fabio Zambernardi, Jacobs noted on Instagram. The aforementioned hoodies, complete with a note that read "I came to Marc and Char's wedding celebration and all I got was this lousy sweatshirt" featured otters holding hands and the message "don't float away."

In case anyone has anxiety during wedding season (raises hand), Jacobs took care of his guests with personalized vape pens, complete with "Marc and Char" on the box (you know, to set them apart from your other wedding vape pens).
Jacobs and his husband were, fittingly, the sartorial stars of the night in coordinating dark green suits. But the grooms weren't the only show-stoppers in the room with a guest list that included Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell, Kaia Gerber, Bella and Gigi Hadid, Emily Ratajkowski, Christy Turlington, and Jacobs's longtime collaborator Katie Grand.
At one point, tuxedo'd dancers with Velma Kelly-style wigs performed a perfectly choreographed Jazz-Age dance before revealing a five-tiered cake onstage.

The glitzy night brought VIPs from all corners of the fashion industry together. Pat McGrath and designer Anna Sui, the designer's longtime industry friends, mingled with new guard stars like Vice's Precious and Miss Fame. Phoebe Philo, former creative director of Céline, was also reportedly in attendance.
