Margaret Qualley recently revealed in an interview with Elle UK that she knew Jack Antonoff was the one for her “right away.” The “Maid” star was so certain of her feelings that she asked Chanel’s creative director Virginie Viard if she would be willing to make her wedding dress two years before their August 2023 nuptials. Qualley expressed her deep connection with Antonoff, stating, “I’d met Jack probably two weeks before, but I was head-over-heels in love right away. I had a sure, knowing feeling that he was my husband.”
During a fitting for the Summer 2021 Chanel haute couture show, where Qualley was set to wear an ivory wedding gown, she spoke to Virginie Viard about Jack. Qualley reminisced, saying, “I was talking about Jack and said to her, ‘I think I’ve just met a man I’m going to marry. And, Virginie, if I’m right, will you make me my wedding dress?’ I said, ‘Give me two years…'” True to her instincts, the couple said “I do” almost exactly two years later in a star-studded ceremony in New Jersey.
The Dream Wedding
Despite the buzz surrounding their nuptials due to the presence of A-list guests like Taylor Swift and Lana Del Rey, Qualley shared that the day surpassed all her expectations. It was a dream come true for the actress, who used to fantasize about weddings with her sister. She described it as “sweet, special, and the most magical day of my life.”
Though Margaret Qualley had never envisioned her wedding as a big production, she revealed that Jack Antonoff changed her perspective. She admitted, “I don’t think I would have had as much of a big wedding if it weren’t for Jack. I wanted it to be big with him… Jack needs a big wedding.” The couple opted for a lavish celebration to accommodate Antonoff’s extensive network of family and friends.
Now, six months into their marriage, Margaret Qualley and Jack Antonoff have settled into their new life together. According to Qualley, not much has changed since they were already operating like a married couple from the beginning. However, she emphasized the security and joy that marriage has brought into their lives. The couple has moved to New Jersey and is relishing the slower pace of life together. Qualley humorously added, “It would be hard for him to disentangle himself from me. I’m glad the law is involved.”
From Romance to Forever
The love story of Margaret Qualley and Jack Antonoff began in August 2021 when they were first seen sharing a kiss in New York City. Less than a year later, Antonoff proposed to Qualley with a stunning $100,000 round-cut sparkler, sealing their commitment to each other for eternity.
