Alana Hadid, the elder half-sister of the esteemed modeling siblings Bella Hadid, 29, and Gigi Hadid, 30, has tied the knot in a most intimate and personal backyard ceremony held on October 18th. Vogue's report reveals that the nuptial took place at the Los Angeles home of her father, Mohamed Hadid, a place steeped in family history and shared with his first wife Mary Butler, including Alana herself at 42, Marielle Hadid at 45, as well as Gigi, Bella, and Anwar Hadid at 26, all from his ex-wife Yolanda Hadid.
Earlier this year, the Hadid family revealed that Mohamed is also the father of Aydan Nix, 23, with ex-Terri Hatfield Dull. "We wanted to do it somewhere that meant something to us," Alana told Vogue in an article published on October 21st. "My dad's house was a natural choice. Then we were trying to figure out what time of year we wanted to get married, and I just think that fall in L.A. is a beautiful time."
Despite opting for a homecoming wedding, Alana didn't skimp on the details that were meaningful to her. As she puts it, "I'm 42 and waited a long time to get married!" She went all-out on fashion, desserts, and other aspects that resonated with her vision of the day.
Bella and Gigi also played a pivotal role in Alana's wedding to Ross Williams, a TV producer she met on a dating app. They stood as bridesmaids in the wedding, donning green dresses of their choice and embracing the airy, outdoor vibes even going barefoot for the occasion.
Ultimately, Alana shared that their wedding day was all about the love between them and the people around them. "It was really about us expressing our love for each other and what it meant to become a family," Alana explained. "It was very personal; we wrote our own vows and said something for Ross's daughter, now my step-daughter." She added, "I feel like we were surrounded by love the whole time."
