Joey King and Steven Piet are married

The relationship between actor Joey King and director Steven Piet had an unconventional start, with Joey taking the initiative. They first crossed paths on the set of the Hulu series “The Act” and quickly formed a friendship. Joey recalled the seamless collaboration between them, and despite having a significant crush, she waited until the wrap party to make her move. Summoning her courage, she took Steven aside and confessed her feelings, a decision she described as the best in her life.

Three years into their relationship, Steven proposed to Joey during a trip to Joshua Tree, celebrating their anniversary. On a cold walk, Steven admired the “perfectly imperfect” surroundings, and as they stopped for photos, he knelt down and spoke beautiful words that left both of them in tears. They kept the news to themselves for a day, cherishing the moment together before sharing it with others.

Following their engagement, the couple turned their focus to planning their wedding. They knew they wanted a destination wedding but hadn’t settled on a location. After some searching, they discovered La Fortaleza in Mallorca, a historic villa reminiscent of the Spanish version of “The Great Gatsby.” It struck a balance between grandeur and intimacy, mirroring the timeless love they shared. Their wedding planners, Alison Bryan Destinations, played a pivotal role in finding this dream venue. Built in 1628, La Fortaleza had even featured prominently in the BBC TV series “The Night Manager.”

Joey had a clear vision for her wedding attire: classic with unique touches. After trying on numerous dresses without success, her stylist, Jared Eng, introduced her to Oscar de la Renta’s bridal collection. Ultimately, Joey chose four distinct looks to wear throughout the wedding weekend. The process included a fitting with Fernando Garcia, co-creative director of Oscar de la Renta, in New York, cementing her choice of attire for the special occasion.
