Giulia Be Marries Conor Kennedy in Rio

Overview

• The religious ceremony took place Saturday, October 10, 2026, at Igreja Nossa Senhora do Carmo da Antiga Sé and closed three days of events that began with a welcome dinner and a blessing at Cristo Redentor.
• Members of Conor Kennedy’s extended family traveled to Rio for the events, including his father Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who participated in the celebrations.
• For the blessing at Cristo Redentor Giulia Be wore a minimalist Calvin Klein dress that paid homage to Carolyn Bessette‑Kennedy, and for the church ceremony she changed into a lace, high‑collar gown by Harris Reed with a long veil.
• Both U.S. President Donald Trump and Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva were invited but did not attend, a detail that underscored the ceremony’s cross‑national political resonance given the couple’s and their families’ public ties.
• The couple had already formalized a civil marriage in Los Angeles in March 2026, and the Rio celebrations are likely to boost Giulia Be’s international profile while keeping the Kennedy family in the public eye.
