Stranger Things star Maya Hawke has officially begun a new chapter in her life. The 27-year-old actress married her longtime partner Christian Lee Hutson in a surprise Valentine’s Day wedding held in New York City on Saturday, February 14.

The romantic ceremony was attended by close family and friends, including Maya’s famous parents — Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman — who were both present to witness their daughter’s special day. The former couple, who were married from 1998 to 2005, came together in support of their eldest child as she exchanged vows with Hutson.

Adding to the warmth of the occasion, several of Maya’s Stranger Things co-stars turned up to celebrate the newlyweds. Among those in attendance were Finn Wolfhard, Gaten Matarazzo, Caleb McLaughlin, Sadie Sink, Natalia Dyer, Charlie Heaton and Joe Keery, making it a mini on-screen reunion off-screen.

For her big day, Maya chose a timeless white wedding gown paired with an oversized, feathery winter coat — a stylish nod to the chilly New York weather. Hutson opted for a classic tuxedo, keeping his look sleek and understated.

Mother of the bride Thurman, 55, looked elegant in a light blue gown complemented by matching shoes, while Ethan, also 55, chose an all-black ensemble for the occasion.

Following the ceremony, the celebrations continued as the couple and their guests made a short walk to the reception at The Players Members Club. There, family and friends gathered for hours of festivities, marking the joyful milestone with music, laughter and heartfelt toasts.

Rumours of Maya and Hutson’s romance first surfaced in 2023 after the pair were photographed sharing a kiss in New York City. Since then, they have largely kept their relationship private, making their Valentine’s Day wedding a delightful surprise for fans.

Thurman, meanwhile, shares another daughter, Luna Busson, with ex-fiancé Arpad Busson.

With family united and friends by her side, Maya Hawke’s Valentine’s Day wedding turned into a heartfelt celebration of love, marking a beautiful new beginning for the actress and her musician husband.
