Paris Hilton and Carter Reum officially tied the knot in a Bel Air wedding on Thursday.

The hotel heiress took to Instagram to announce the big news. "My forever begins today. #JustMarried #ForeverHiltonReum," she captioned a photograph of herself in a beautiful custom Oscar de la Renta wedding gown designed by Fernando Garcia and Laura Kim.

Hilton and Reum, who's a venture capitalist, have been engaged since February 2021. However, the couple has been friends for over a decade. "Carter and I have been friends for over 15 years,” Hilton told Vogue. "We stayed in each other’s lives over time, and we reconnected at a Thanksgiving get-together in 2019. From that night, I felt the spark, and the rest is history."

The couple wed at the bride's late grandfather Barron Hilton's former Bel Air estate. Kim Petras sang Elvis Presley's "Can't Help Falling in Love" as the reality star-slash-entrepreneur walked down the aisle. Meanwhile, Demi Lovato performed at the wedding reception.

Hilton chose November 11 as a wedding date for a specific reason. "It's my reminder to make a wish and be open to miracles," she told the publication. "This date is special to Carter and I — it represents our love story, which both of us knew was meant to be."

In addition to marrying her dream man, Hilton fulfilled a very special childhood dream. "As a little girl, I always told myself that I would get married at my grandfather's former estate," she revealed. "I imagined having my fairy tale wedding here, and it's amazing that it actually came true. This estate brings back so many memories, and it means so much to be here surrounded by family and connected to all my loved ones on this day."
