In a storybook ceremony that blended Hollywood glamour with traditional Spanish charm, Stella Banderas - the daughter of acting legends Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith - has exchanged vows with her partner in a romantic Andalusian wedding.
A Family Affair in Southern Spain
The intimate celebration took place in the picturesque region of Andalucía, where 27-year-old Stella looked every bit the radiant bride in an elegant white gown. Her famous parents, who separated amicably in 2015 after nearly two decades of marriage, came together to support their daughter on her special day.
Antonio Banderas, the celebrated Spanish actor known for his roles in "The Mask of Zorro" and "Pain and Glory", beamed with pride as he escorted his daughter. The 63-year-old star cut a dashing figure in a sophisticated dark suit, his emotional presence highlighting the close bond he shares with his only child with Griffith.

Melanie Griffith, the Oscar-nominated actress of "Working Girl" fame, attended alongside her mother, the legendary screen star Tippi Hedren. The 66-year-old actress looked elegant in a floral ensemble, her joyful expression capturing the emotional significance of seeing her daughter marry.
The wedding party included several high-profile guests from the entertainment industry, creating a who's-who of Hollywood and European cinema amidst the stunning Spanish backdrop. The celebration beautifully merged American and Spanish traditions, reflecting Stella's bicultural upbringing.
Following in Famous Footsteps
Stella, who has carved her own path in the entertainment industry as an actress, has often spoken about the unique experience of growing up with famous parents. The wedding marks a new chapter for the young star, who has appeared in films alongside both her mother and father.
The ceremony took place in a private venue characteristic of the Andalusian region, complete with whitewashed walls, floral arches, and the golden sunlight that has made southern Spain a favourite destination for romantic celebrations.
As the newlyweds begin their life together, they do so with the blessing of two Hollywood dynasties and the warmth of Spanish tradition - a perfect blend that promises an exciting future ahead.
