With 2023 seeing some of the biggest A-List stars tying the knot, new research reveals which of the most popular celebrity weddings of all time, were Googled the most in 2023.
Taking a list of over 100 of the most influential married stars from 1923 to 2023, experts at Chapel of the Flowers used SEO tools, AHREFs and Google Keyword Planner, to analyze the search volumes for celebrity weddings in each state as well as America as a whole, to establish which celebrity weddings have caused the most intrigue this year.
A spokesperson for Chapel of the Flowers said: “Celebrities are known for igniting huge trends and their weddings are no exception. While today’s stars are no doubt leading the way, taking a close look at the historic ceremonies held in the last 100 years, it’s incredibly fascinating to see which weddings and couples are still popular in 2023.
It’s evident that there is space for both smaller scale weddings and more opulent weddings with a mix of Las Vegas ceremonies and grand royal weddings making the top ten.”
Getting hitched to each other in 2022, the wedding of Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck is officially the most Googled celebrity wedding of the year, from our study.
Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker’s wedding is next on the list, followed closely by the late Queen Elizabeth II’s wedding to Prince Philip from 1947 – highlighting just how popular the late Queen still is today.
Interestingly, royal weddings prove to be exceedingly popular in 2023, with the wedding of Charles and Diana, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle and Prince William and Kate Middleton all taking a spot in the top ten list.
Alongside modern-day celebrity weddings such as Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s in 2014 and Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber’s wedding in 2018, Hollywood legend Elvis Presley’s wedding to Priscilla Presley still receives 18,200 monthly searches in America in 2023. The same goes for screen icon Marilyn Monroe, who’s wedding to Joe DiMaggio is searched on average 13,000 times across America each month in 2023.
