There's no wedding like a Kennedy Wedding.
The prominent political family's grand romances are back in the spotlight thanks to Love Story: JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette. Episode 6 focuses on John F. Kennedy Jr. and Carolyn Bessette's 1996 wedding, as, amid the planning process, the couple are acutely aware that though they want it to be an intimate, private affair, it's still a "Kennedy Wedding."
Through the years, the famed Kennedy family has seen some of the most spectacular dresses and settings for the nuptials of extended family members. While former President John F. Kennedy and Jackie Kennedy tied the knot in Rhode Island in 1953, recent weddings include that of Sarah Kennedy and her husband Jam Sulahry on the historic Kennedy Compound in Hyannis Port, Mass., in 2023.
Here's a look back at more of the family's most glamorous celebrations.
