The wedding itself was at a private villa in Les Parcs, and a string quartet performed throughout the ceremony. “The service was peaceful and sentimental,” Dylan remembers. “Seeing my beautiful wife walking down the aisle and reciting my vows in the middle of the most beautiful wildflower garden was a dream come true.”
“Neither of us had ever been to a wedding before,” Paula says. “Waiting two years for that moment made it feel even more magical.”
For the ceremony, Paula wore the final wedding dress designed by Fernando Garcia for Oscar de la Renta. Soon after getting engaged, she, her mother, and mother-in-law Pamela Anderson began working with the Oscar de la Renta team, drawing inspiration from classic French cinema, Sofia Coppola’s Marie Antoinette, Audrey Hepburn in Funny Face, and archival runway collections. “I had always envisioned being in ballet flats or barefoot down the aisle,” Paula says. “So we kept the front of the dress shorter but kept the long train in the back to give it that princess look.”
The dress captured the romantic, whimsical elegance Paula had always imagined. “Every fitting felt special,” she adds. “And together we created something that felt timeless while still feeling completely like me.” To complement the look, the bride wore jewelry by her friend Eve Gay of Stoned—also the designer of her engagement ring and wedding band—including diamond earrings for the ceremony shaped like a flower to match her dress. Meanwhile, the groom wore custom tailoring by Genuardi.
Pamela also wore Oscar de la Renta. “Fernando has been a friend for a long time,” she explains of the backstory to her outfit, which included a custom mustard brocade dress with a small cape. “Dylan is a beautiful soul—he really is a grounding force in all of our lives,” she says. “He and Paula are an undeniable match. They are a wonderful artistic couple, and we are so blessed to share our families.”
“I’m so happy for Dylan and so excited to send him off into the wild world,” the mother of the groom continues. “It’s an emotional moment. Tears are catching me off guard at times—happy tears. But as Khalil Gibran says, ‘As parents, we are the bow from which life springs.’” The groom’s brother, Brandon Thomas Lee, was also in attendance alongside his girlfriend, Katarina Demetriades, and their father, Tommy Lee.
The couple’s family friend, Dr. Habib Sadeghi, officiated the ceremony. “He’s known Dylan and I since we were young,” Paula explains. “So it was very special to have him there to guide us through the process.”
“We felt pure happiness,” Dylan remembers. “Looking around and seeing everyone we love gathered together in one place was overwhelming in the best possible way. There was so much excitement and love in the air. Being one of the first among many of our friends to get married made the day feel especially meaningful, and we truly tried to soak in every second together.”
Following the ceremony, guests toasted the newlyweds with Dom Pérignon and pastries by Cédric Grolet before making their way to Gigi for dinner. Candlelit tables layered with overflowing florals, embroidered napkins, and personalized menus set the tone for an evening filled with heartfelt speeches, live music, and dancing that kept going late into the evening.
The following afternoon, everyone reconvened at Les Graniers, where Paula and Dylan arrived by vintage Riva boat before spending one last afternoon celebrating on the beach. “It was perfect,” Dylan says. “The perfect ending to a perfect weekend.”
