If you have seen photos of Jennifer Lawrence looking like a princess in what seems to be a wedding dress, do not think for a second that she got married in secret, because she actually dressed up for another important event in her life, her engagement party.
The actress started dating Cooke Maroney back in 2018, when her best friend Laura Simpson introduced them. Maroney is not an actor, instead, he is the director of the Gladstone Gallery’s Upper East Side location, Gladstone 64. As soon as things started to get serious, Lawrence and Maroney chose to keep their relationship low-key, but rumors of an engagement began when the actress was spotted wearing a huge ring on her ring finger. The couple confirmed their engagement early February 2019 through Lawrence’s representative.
Just as their relationship was low-key then, news of the date and location of their engagement party were withheld from the press. It was only discovered that the event happened in Dumbo. A rule was set, that is usually requested of the guests of private celebrity events, and that was to turn off their phones. Apparently there were famous people who turned up, one of them being La La Land actress Emma Stone.
Phone cameras were off limits, but it looks like makeup artist Fulvia Farolfi broke the rule by taking a shot of Lawrence in her L. WELLS dress called the Juliana Wedding Dress. L. WELLS is a NYC-based fashion brand specializing in wedding dresses. It’s owned by designer Lauren Wells, who used to design for Vera Wang until she left and created her own bridal dress brand. Farolfi shared her photo of JLaw on Instagram with a caption that included her sentiment of joy for being a part of the special moment in the actress’ life.
