Arden Cho Ties the Knot in a Dreamy Italian Wedding: A Blend of Cultures and Love
A Fairytale Wedding in Florence
Arden Cho, celebrated for her performances in Teen Wolf, Partner Track, and KPop Demon Hunters, has revealed delightful news she had kept under wraps for years. Recently, the actress exchanged vows with orthopedic surgeon Christopher Lee during a breathtaking multi-day wedding celebration in Florence, Italy. Surrounded by their closest family and friends, the couple beautifully blended Korean customs with Italian charm and elegant fashion, offering fans a peek into their love story that blossomed away from the limelight.
The love story of Arden Cho and Christopher Lee began in a way many modern couples can relate to—via a dating app. After several years of dating, Christopher proposed during a romantic getaway in Maui in March 2025. Sharing her joy on Instagram, Cho wrote, "He fixes bones, I tell stories. He’s the calm to my chaos." When it came to choosing a wedding destination, Florence felt like the perfect fit for the couple. In an interview with a media outlet, Cho shared, "Italy holds a special place in our hearts, not just for its cuisine and culture, but because this is where I knew he was the one for me." She highlighted their wish for the weekend to feel like a lovely vacation for all their guests.
As reported by Vogue, Arden Cho made sure that every outfit she wore throughout the wedding weekend showcased her unique style and Korean heritage. The celebrations began with a welcome party where she and Christopher donned traditional Korean hanbok, creatively designed by MeeHee. For the welcome dinner, Cho chose a bright orange hanbok, symbolizing joy. During the traditional pyebaek ceremony, which pays tribute to the groom's parents, she switched to a red skirt representing good fortune, paired with a green jacket symbolizing a long-lasting and harmonious marriage.
In the lead-up to their wedding, the couple faced some unexpected hurdles. Just days before the big day, some of their crucial luggage went missing during transit, although it eventually arrived just in time. Cho took to Twitter to express her worries about the lost items. Additionally, Christopher Lee's family faced flight delays and cancellations, raising concerns that they might miss the ceremony. To keep the celebratory mood alive, the couple decided to hold a quiet midnight pyebaek ceremony, welcoming Cho into Lee's family.
The wedding day also presented weather-related challenges, as Florence was experiencing a Level-3 red-alert heatwave. This led the couple's planners to modify the schedule, moving the outdoor ceremony to later in the evening and arranging for additional air-conditioning to ensure the comfort of their guests. On the professional front, Arden Cho continues to shine, lending her voice to the fierce protagonist Rumi in the popular animated film KPop Demon Hunters, available on Netflix. She is also producing an eagerly awaited K-pop-themed psychological thriller titled Perfect Girl.
