The high-profile wedding of Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz in April 2022 continues to captivate public attention, especially amid recent family tensions. Now, the couple's original wedding planner, Preston Bailey, has shared exclusive insights into what the famous pair are truly like behind the scenes.
Behind the Scenes of a Celebrity Wedding
Preston Bailey, renowned as a fairy godmother to the stars for orchestrating lavish celebrity weddings, was initially hired in April 2021 to plan Brooklyn and Nicola's nuptials. Although he had to withdraw from the role after eleven months due to scheduling conflicts, Bailey spent significant time with the couple during the crucial planning phase.
A Different Side to Brooklyn Beckham
In a recent interview with Page Six, Bailey expressed surprise at Brooklyn's recent public feud with his parents, describing a markedly different persona from the man he worked with. "It surprises me that he is taking this stand against his parents," Bailey revealed. "That's not the Brooklyn I met as far as him being this nice, gentle guy. He was just a nice, regular person who would say hello and chit chat."
Bailey emphasised Brooklyn's active involvement in the wedding details, noting, "While we were planning, clearly as far as the details for the design, he was very much involved. I have always thought of him as a gentle, decent guy. There was never any tension." This portrayal contrasts sharply with recent headlines alleging family disputes.
Nicola Peltz's Collaborative Approach
Regarding Nicola Peltz, Bailey dismissed any notions of her being demanding or overbearing during the planning process. "I don't remember her being bossy," he recalled. "I remember a lot of affection between them." However, he highlighted one specific request from Nicola that underscored her collaborative nature with Brooklyn.
"Whatever design was done was presented to Nicola, but it was important for her to have Brooklyn approve it," Bailey explained. "She wasn't going to do anything without his approval." This detail reveals a partnership built on mutual respect and joint decision-making, rather than unilateral control.
Planning Dynamics and Family Absence
Most of Bailey's interactions with the couple occurred via Zoom or in-person at the Peltz family home, as reported by the Mirror. Notably, he confirmed that during this planning period, he had no direct contact with Brooklyn's parents, David and Victoria Beckham. This separation might hint at the early stages of the family dynamics that have since become public.
Bailey's reflections offer a rare glimpse into the authentic personalities of Brooklyn Beckham and Nicola Peltz, contrasting the recent media storm with memories of a gentle, affectionate couple deeply invested in creating their perfect wedding day together.
