m pbTheir love story involved a ten-year friendship, a well-publicized on-and-off romance and a 12-week courtship culminating in a secret Manhattan courthouse wedding. But when pop star Justin Bieber and model Hailey Baldwin Bieber finally celebrated their dream wedding, Harper's Bazaar deemed it nothing less than the "Wedding of the Year."

The chosen scene of the lavish September 30, 2019 affair was the luxurious waterfront resort Montage Palmetto Bluff. The picturesque Bluffton, South Carolina venue offered a secluded setting complete with a nature preserve and riverfront marina. Bieber and Baldwin had long planned a religious ceremony for family and friends, although they were legally married over a year earlier in a quiet New York City courthouse wedding just two months after their engagement.

The long-awaited affair was a gorgeous, multi-day Low Country celebration, the work of celebrity wedding planner Mindy Weiss. E News reported that lucky guests arrived by water taxi for the waterfront rehearsal dinner at the Montage, the venue lit with white string lights, and enjoyed local fare that included an oyster roast. The pre-wedding partying did not end there. According to TMZ, the traditional rehearsal dinner was followed by an incredible late-night celebration. The festivities included a screening of the couple's favorite movie, "The Notebook." A fun carnival-themed bash featured a giant dance party, plentiful assortment of ice cream and candy, bowling, and a game of capture the flag, culminating with a 1 a.m. water gun fight.

Next day, the new Mr. and Mrs. Bieber said their vows before 154 guests in the Montage's beautiful sunlit Somerset Chapel. The couple exchanged 18K gold Tiffany wedding rings, hers lined with diamonds.

The fabulous fete was matched by the bride's stunning wedding attire. According to British Vogue, the bride donned no fewer than four bridal dresses for the many celebrations. Hailey's gorgeous rehearsal dinner look featured a Vivienne Westwood mini dress. For the wedding ceremony, she wore a custom Off-White gown and an extravagant lace veil with the words "Til Death Do Us Part" stitched into the hem. At the reception, the bride chose a Ralph & Russo halter neck dress accessorized with Jimmy Choo sandals and five carat Tiffany diamond studs, as well as a floor-length custom Vera Wang slip dress. The new Mrs. Bieber also appeared in social media posts in her custom Celine leather jacket stitched with the word "Wife".

Following the vows, People reported that the wedding guests were escorted to a post-ceremony cocktail hour followed by a plated dinner at the Montage's Wilson Ballroom. Fans craving a glimpse of the star-studded wedding reception were treated to plenty of Instagram pics from a fun Bieber wedding photo booth. Celeb guests included Kendall Jenner (who posted best wishes to my "BFF4eva"), her mom Kris Jenner and little sis Kylie Jenner with sweet daughter Stormi, Usher, Jaden Smith, Justine Skye, and of course, the Baldwin brothers and Hailey's cousin and bridesmaid Ireland Baldwin. The partiers were entertained by Canadian singer-songwriter and Grammy winner Daniel Caesar, who performed two of his songs, "Best Part" and "Get You." The happy couple slow-danced to their song, the Tim McGraw/Faith Hill love ballad "It's Your Love."

The Bieber/Baldwin wedding guests took home some over-the-top wedding swag. In addition to their white "The Biebers" tees and "Hailey & Justin" water bottles, friends and family were treated to some items from Justin's clothing line, Drew House. Best of all, the lucky guests took home bottles of Moet & Chandon emblazoned with the couple's names and wedding date and bejeweled with thousands of Swarovski crystals.
