Here’s everything we know about Paltrow and Falchuk’s big day so far.

Paltrow had an unofficial wedding advisor

According to an exclusive report in People, Paltrow leaned heavily on one particular person for wedding day advice: Cameron Diaz. “Cameron was very excited about Gwyneth’s wedding,” revealed People’s source. “Gwyneth has been giving her updates and asking for advice during the planning.” 

As for what makes Diaz such a qualified wedding advisor, the source said, “Cameron pulled off a private wedding even though the media found out about it before. Gwyneth wanted the same privacy.”

Jerry Seinfeld hosted the rehearsal dinner

The wedding festivities kicked off Friday night with an intimate rehearsal dinner. Per People, the fete was held at the Hamptons home of Jerry Seinfeld and his wife, Jessica. The Seinfelds are reportedly longtime neighbors and close friends of Paltrow.

The groom arrived in (laid-back) style

Falchuk and Paltrow are known for being laid-back and fun-loving, and their big day proved no different. A source told RadarOnline of the groom’s arrival on Saturday, “He was driving himself in a Jeep. He had a huge smile on his face. He looked really happy.”

Although initial reports suggested that Paltrow and Falchuk were planning an intimate wedding with around 20 loved ones, the actual day included around 75 guests, according to E! News

Among those guests were Hollywood heavy hitters like Paltrow’s Iron Man costar Robert Downey Jr. and his wife, Susan, Steven Spielberg and his wife, Kate Capshaw, Rob Lowe and Sheryl Berkoff, the Seinfelds and Diaz with her husband, Benji Madden. 

Spielberg is said to have served as the unofficial videographer of the day, walking around filming guests and happenings using a handheld video camera.

Everything turned out perfectly Goop-y

As you might expect from the maven of Goop, Paltrow’s wedding sounds as though it was picture perfect. 

A string quartet serenaded guests as they sipped cocktails. When it came time for the ceremony, guests were ushered toward the front of a house, where the couple said their vows underneath a tent situated below a huge tree in the front yard. They stood under an archway adorned with greenery and surrounded by glowing lanterns, E! News reported.
