On a picturesque autumn evening, Christine Baumgartner and financier Josh Connor exchanged vows in a heartwarming ceremony at the Santa Ynez Ranch in Santa Barbara, California. This exclusive event, witnessed by just over 100 of their dearest family and friends, including their children, showcased love, intimacy and rustic elegance.
The bride looked radiant in a custom-designed gown by Mira Zwillinger, adorned with delicate hand-embroidered flowers and a soft sweetheart neckline. As the sun set over the vineyard, Baumgartner and Connor sealed their love in front of their loved ones, in a celebration that spanned a weekend, allowing for quality time and cherished moments.
Baumgartner, 51, and Connor, 49, embraced the natural beauty of their surroundings, creating an atmosphere that was described as magical by one of the guests. The vineyard setting offered privacy and warmth, setting the stage for a truly unforgettable occasion that captured the essence of the couple’s love and commitment.
The festivities were not just about a wedding; they were about the journey of two hearts coming together to build a future based on authenticity and joy. From the welcome celebration to the final dance, joy and laughter filled the air, with guests reflecting on the genuine bond shared by Baumgartner and Connor.
Following a romantic beach proposal in Santa Barbara earlier this year, Baumgartner and Connor’s wedding symbolized a new chapter in their lives, brimming with excitement and anticipation for the future. The couple’s journey to this day was marked by moments of love and growth, culminating in a union that radiated sincerity and happiness.
Baumgartner’s involvement with the OmniPeace Foundation, a non-profit organisation that advocates for music education for children, has been a testament to her dedication to giving back and making a difference. Her passion for philanthropy shines through as she continues to support initiatives that promote education and empowerment for young minds.
The wedding not only marked a union of two souls but also signified a fresh start for Baumgartner, following her divorce from Kevin Costner in 2024. Amidst the tranquil beauty of the vineyard, Baumgartner and Connor embarked on a new journey together, surrounded by loved ones who shared in their joy and celebrated their love.
As Baumgartner and Connor embrace this new beginning, their love story serves as a reminder of the enduring power of love and the beauty of starting anew.
