Her longtime stylist, Jason Bolden, said he drew inspiration from ’90s icons for her recent wedding celebration in Mexico with the baseball player Cole Tucker.

In a slip gown that embodied ’90s simplicity, Vanessa Hudgens celebrated her marriage to the baseball player Cole Tucker on Dec. 2, in Tulum, Mexico.
The couple met in October 2020 during a virtual meditation session led by Jay Shetty, a monk turned life coach, Ms. Hudgens told Vogue. Mr. Shetty led the wedding ceremony at Azulik Resort, an Instagrammable, jungle dreamscape.
The 34-year-old actress wore a sleek, custom Vera Wang cowl neck slip dress, complete with a tulle cape and veil and her hair slicked back in a bun. (The slicked back, middle-part bun was also worn by Sofia Richie in her trendsetting wedding in April 2023.) Ms. Hudgens, 5-foot-1, also wore Paris Texas platform pumps to help compensate for the 14-inch height difference between herself and Mr. Tucker, 27, a free agent shortstop and outfielder.
For the reception, she changed into a strapless lace bodice and an airy chiffon skirt — again, Vera Wang — and Larroudé platforms.

Ms. Hudgens, who starred in “High School Musical” and “Tick, Tick … Boom!,” has frequently worn custom Vera Wang pieces at red carpet events, including at the CFDA awards in November, where she presented Ms. Wang with an award. And Ms. Wang has a history of dressing celebrity brides, including Issa Rae and Ariana Grande. So, the pairing made perfect sense, said Ms. Hudgens’s longtime stylist, Jason Bolden, who introduced the two several years ago.
