Charli XCX & George Daniel: A "Bratcore" Mini Wedding in Hackney
Today We Become One • July 21, 2025
Pop icon Charli XCX and The 1975 drummer George Daniel sealed the deal
in a stylish, low-key ceremony at Hackney Town Hall on July 19, 2025.
Here’s the story behind this intimate yet unforgettable day:
💍 The Intimate Ceremony
- The couple said their “I do’s” in front of just ~20 of their dearest—including Charli’s parents and loyal bandmates from The 1975 (Matty Healy was absent, pursuing a separate project) Eksukoon+13People.com+13People.com+13My Face Hunter+7People.com+7People.com+7.
- Private and heartfelt, their union blended family ties with creative partnership—Charli and George met via music collaboration in 2021 and confirmed their relationship in 2022 People.com+1People.com+1.
👗 Wedding Style & Fashion Statements
- Charli wore an off-the-shoulder Vivienne Westwood silk mini dress with corset-inspired structure, tulle veil, white Jimmy Choo heels, and later switched into a chic Saint Laurent baby-doll mini-green dress for the reception. She topped off her bridal look with her signature oversized black sunglasses after exiting the ceremony Vulture+13Vanity Fair+13Brides+13.
- George looked effortlessly cool in a navy double-breasted suit—no tie—wearing a boutonnière that perfectly matched Charli’s bouquet E! Online+6Vanity Fair+6Brides+6.
🎉 Reception & After-Party Vibes
- Instead of a grand hall, the couple walked to Dalla, a cozy Dalston Italian restaurant, where their reception featured pasta, champagne, and even surprise smokes-on-trays—an avant-“Bratcore” nod People.com+14Vulture+14ELLE+14.
- They then headed to Ellie’s bar for an inspired nightclub-style after-party, full open-door energy, dancing, and DIY “bride party energy” featuring her TikTok-friendly vibes Cosmopolitan+1People.com+1.
🎤 Creative & Personal Connections
- Charli shared in a TikTok post that George got emotional seeing her walk down the aisle:

- Their creative synergy continues: George contributed to Charli’s latest album, Brat, helping her slow down and deepen her artistic process Cosmopolitan+7People.com+7People.com+7.
✈️ What’s Ahead: Sicily Sequel
This London civil ceremony was only their “first act.” A grand, star-studded wedding celebration in Sicily is planned later this year—promising all the glam and international flair ELLE+9People.com+9The Standard+9.
💡 Why It Stands Out
- Offbeat Elegance: A fashion-forward mini dress paired with edgy accessories and bold after-party choices.
- Intimate & Real: Understated ceremony, heavy on genuine emotion and personal touches—no pomp, just meaning.
- Creative Chemistry: Love and art intertwined—these two co-create both music and life.

Your wedding day should tell your unique love story, not look like every other Pinterest board out there. But here's the thing, most couples either go overboard with personalization or miss the mark entirely. After years of helping couples create meaningful ceremonies, we've seen these same seven mistakes pop up again and again. The good news? They're totally fixable. 1. Copying Social Media Trends Without Adding Your Personal Touch We get it. Instagram weddings look amazing, and Pinterest is basically wedding porn. But when you're just copying what everyone else is doing, your wedding ends up looking like everyone else's too. The desert pampas grass, the neon signs, the donut walls, they're all beautiful, but do they actually represent you? The Fix: Start with your story first, trends second. Before you pin another "boho chic" inspiration board, sit down together and talk about what makes your relationship special. Maybe you bonded over terrible horror movies, or you have a thing for vintage vinyl records. Those are the details that should shape your wedding, not whatever's trending on TikTok this week. Use social media for inspiration, but ask yourself: "Does this actually reflect who we are as a couple?" If the answer is no, keep scrolling.
