Stella Banderas, 29, has officially tied the knot with her longtime partner, Alex Gruszynski, in a beautiful ceremony held in Spain on Saturday, October 18.
The intimate wedding was attended by close family and friends, with her proud parents, Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith, present to celebrate their daughter’s big day.
Antonio, 65, was seen raising a glass of wine in honor of the newlyweds, looking dapper in a black tuxedo as he smiled and joined in on the joyous moment.
The bride stunned in a lace, off-the-shoulder gown with flowing sleeves, while the groom matched her elegance in a classic black tuxedo.
Following the ceremony, Antonio Banderas was photographed meeting members of the press and toasting the occasion on October 18, 2025, in Spain. Stella and Gruszynski first shared their engagement news on Instagram back in August 2024.
“I get to hang out with my favorite person on earth forever!” Stella captioned the post, proudly showing off her engagement ring.

The photo carousel included several sweet throwback photos of the couple, some dating back to their preschool days. The post was tagged at Wagon Wheel School in Los Angeles, the very place where they first met, hinting that Gruszynski proposed at their childhood school.
