If you grew up screaming “Call Me Maybe” into your hairbrush, this one’s going to hit you right in the feels. Carly Rae Jepsen, the undisputed queen of pop crushes and serotonin-filled melodies, is officially married. The 39-year-old singer tied the knot with longtime love and music producer Cole M.G.N. (real name: Cole Marsden Greif-Neill) on October 4 in a low-key but deeply personal ceremony at New York City’s Chelsea Hotel, a place as rich in history as it is in heartbreak ballads.
And honestly? The vibes were peak Carly Rae: emotional, effortlessly cool, and just the right amount of theatrical.
Forget castle weddings and beachfront vows, Carly and Cole chose something much more them: a wedding at the Bard Room inside the iconic Chelsea Hotel, surrounded by a hundred of their closest people. “We knew we wanted a location that meant something to us,” Carly told Vogue. “The Chelsea Hotel had become a home away from home every time we were in New York.”
It’s the kind of venue that feels alive, once home to legends like Leonard Cohen and Patti Smith and now, to one of pop’s most whimsical storytellers. For a couple who met through music and turned creativity into connection, it made perfect sense.
Let’s talk fashion. Carly walked down the aisle in a strapless corseted gown by Toni Maticevski, featuring a draped skirt that was both sculptural and soft, basically, if elegance had a main character moment. Later, she switched into an ethereal tiered reception dress by Danielle Frankel, light and flowy for dancing (and maybe baby planning).
Her accessories came with heart, pearl earrings made by her mom, Alexandra Lanzarott. “We knew we were trying to get pregnant, so I also wanted an alternative dress that was much more flowy,” Carly shared. The result? A bridal look that balanced sentiment, comfort, and style, the perfect trifecta.
A Surprise That Hit All the Right Notes
If you thought Run Away With Me was romantic, wait till you hear this. During the reception, Rufus Wainwright surprised everyone with an a cappella version of Leonard Cohen’s “Chelsea Hotel #2.” Imagine it: the historic venue, the newlyweds, and one of music’s most poetic songs echoing through the walls. “It felt like a once-in-a-lifetime New York moment,” Carly said and really, who could argue with that?
