Lana Del Rey is reveling in the bliss of her first year of married life with Jeremy Dufrene. The 40-year-old singer commemorated her one-year wedding anniversary with her husband, a swamp boat tour guide based in Louisiana, by sharing a heartfelt carousel of photos on Instagram, offering a deeply personal glimpse into their special day.
The post opened with tender images of Del Rey and Dufrene posing and sharing a romantic kiss on an airboat. It then transitioned to snapshots of their wedding guests, including celebrities Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley, who were seen enthusiastically cheering for the newlyweds. Del Rey also gave a peek at their wedding cake — adorned with a golden-framed cabin motif — and a touching moment where the married couple fed each other pieces in a gesture of love and unity.
Additionally, the carousel featured photos of a perfume bottle etched with the romantic inscription "Love on the Bayou" and their wedding date "9.26.24," alongside an array of antique silver serving pieces that added a touch of timeless elegance to the occasion. Del Rey, whose real name is Elizabeth Grant, and Dufrene exchanged vows in Des Allemandes, Louisiana. A source revealed to PEOPLE at the time that "both the wedding ceremony and reception took place in the same bayou where Jeremy conducts his swamp boat tours."
"This is where they first met," the source added, highlighting the significance of the location. "It's a special place for them. The wedding was beautiful, relaxed, and family-oriented. The focus was solely on their love story."
A later source described the couple's relationship as a "whirlwind romance," though Del Rey's close friends were eager for it to blossom into something serious. "Jeremy is different from the men Lana usually encounters in the entertainment world," they remarked. "He's a fantastic guy — charming and charismatic in a Southern way, very much a gentleman, and he treats Lana exceptionally well. She's an old soul at heart."
Their journey began in 2019 when Del Rey shared a photo of Dufrene on Facebook, hinting at a budding connection. Their romance became more evident in August 2024 when a Reddit user captured a photo of them enjoying lunch together in London. Since going public with their relationship, they have been deeply enamored with each other. Del Rey recently shared a throwback photo from their wedding, where she wore an elegant lacy A-line gown to say "I do" to Dufrene, who looked dapper in a simple suit. The pair held hands at the altar, gazing into each other's eyes with adoration.
"May 12 angels guard you while you preach tonight," the singer wrote in the caption, tagging the officiant, Judah Smith, and his wife, Chelsea Smith, in a heartfelt message.
