The actor married his boyfriend in an intimate wedding ceremony in Malibu, California after dating for 9 years. The wedding was everything that the newlywed couple had expected from the sacred ceremony.

Lana Condor remembered her mother at her wedding
In an interview published with Vogue on November 1, Codner expressed his feelings while standing at the altar. She told the outlet, “Making the highest resolution of life out there in front of all our friends and family is a moment we will always cherish. It was a very emotional and happy occasion.”
Since the wedding was an intimate affair, the guest list included the names of her close family and friends, including To All the Boys co-star Sarayu Blue, Madeleine Arthur with Janelle Parrish, who served as one of her bridesmaids. As reported by E! Online.
Although the day was one of the happiest moments of her life, it was also bittersweet because Kodner was missing her mother who passed away earlier this year. The wedding venue, Malibu’s Serra Retreat, was inspired by a trip Lana took with her mother in high school.
“She didn’t want us to not celebrate our love,” Lana shared with the media outlet. We really wanted to get married at Serra Retreat because staying there was such a core memory with my mom, and I felt we would be able to feel her presence on our wedding night.”
However, she was grateful that she got the chance to choose her wedding gown with her mother, which she purchased shortly after Condor’s engagement in January 2022. She wore her dream Vera Wang gown. “As soon as I wore my wedding gown, my mom and I fell in love with it, and I’m so grateful that I got to share that experience with her,” the 27-year-old recalled. That was the only time she was able to see me in my dress, and I will always keep that memory in my heart.”

Lana Condor’s wedding weekend celebration
The Moonshot actor’s wedding celebrations continued till the next day when she hosted a farewell lunch with her husband at their home in Los Angeles. The newlyweds then got their first matching tattoos on their wrists, which was their wedding date.
“The entire weekend couldn’t have gone any better,” Codner gushed. We are filled with love and gratitude for each other and for all of our incredible guests who traveled from far and wide to join our celebration.”
Condor and Torre first met at an Emmys party in 2015 when the Lords of Chaos actor introduced himself to Condor. She thought, “We both knew that day would change the course of our lives forever. We didn’t know exactly how…but boy, did our lives change for the better!”
