Meet Mr. and Mrs. Janssen! That’s right, Alexis Bellino and John Janssen are officially married. The Real Housewives of Orange County alum and John married in Laguna Beach, California, on Friday, October 3.
Alexis confirmed the news via Instagram, reposting a People magazine article about her and John’s “whimsical” ceremony.Â
“We envisioned a dreamy, romantic, rustic chic vibe with earthy elegance,” she told the outlet. “Our venue gave us that perfect mix of natural beauty and privacy, nestled between the canyon and the sea. It felt like we were celebrating in a secret garden by the ocean.”
Which Bravolebrities attended Alexis Bellino and John Janssen’s wedding?
The OC mom said there140 people in attendance, all of whom were asked to dress in “light and earthy tones.” Guests included RHOC alum Jo De La Rosa, The McBee Dynasty: Real American Cowboys‘ Galyna Saltkovska, and, as expected, RHOC‘s Tamra Judge. The latter took to Instagram to praise the event.
“It was one of the most beautiful , romantic , fun spiritual weddings I’ve ever been too,” she wrote.
Alexis’ children — 17-year-old twins Miles and Mackenna, and 19-year-old James — played a “meaningful role” in the celebration, as they walked their mom down the aisle. John’s three adult children, Jessica, Juliet, and Joseph, also accompanied their dad down the aisle. All six children were presented with custom bracelets symbolizing the blending of their families.
The wedding comes weeks after they obtained their marriage license in mid-September. Prior to that, Alexis noted that she was focused on “details and deadlines” as she and John were inching closer to their wedding date.
What Alexis Bellino shared about her wedding to John Janssen
Before her actual wedding day, Alexis teased what her wedding to John could look like. When speaking to BravoTV.com in September 2024, she noted that “we’re not doing a typical wedding” since both she and John have been married before. “We’re changing it up; we have a couple [of] creative ideas,” she added.Â
As for the guest list, Alexis shared that they didn’t want to invite too many people and hoped to keep the guest list on a smaller scale. “I mean, we’re thinking 100 or under, but we’re already at like 80 people just with family and close friends, so I don’t know what it’s going to look like,” she said at the time.Â
Inside Alexis Bellino and John Janssen’s road to marriage
Alexis and John got engaged in August 2024, less than a year after they started dating. “On Cloud 9, celebrating 9 months of love and laughter, and looking forward to my forever with you,” Alexis wrote on Instagram at the time about her engagement to John. “Every moment together has been a gift. I am so in love with you and the beautiful life we’re building together. And the answer is 100000000% yes.”
Prior to saying “I do,” Alexis hinted that she and John were getting close to their wedding day when she shared a photo of their  “save the date” card. “It’s getting real…I can’t,” she wrote over the photo at the time.
That wedding sneak peek came weeks after Alexis and her friends, including Jo, went on a girls’ trip to find her wedding dress. While she didn’t share any sneak peek at the dresses she was looking at, she did confirm she found what would ultimately be her wedding dress during the trip.Â
Alexis Bellino opens up about her and John Janssen’s blended family
Previously. Alexis made it clear that her and John’s efforts to blend their families, including their kids from their previous marriages (Alexis has three kids with her ex-husband, Jim Bellino), were going great.
During a July 2024 interview with The Daily Dish, Alexis revealed that her kids get along with John and his children. “We’ve acclimated all of our families together, including our dogs,” she said in the interview, which took place two months before they got engaged last year. “We are moving in a direction of being in it for the long haul, so it’s exciting.”
What’s next for Alexis Bellino and John Janssen?
Days before the wedding, Alexis posted a sweet ode to John and their life together. “He loves me…I’ve never had a man be so attentive, so kind, so thoughtful, so family oriented, and just ‘get me’ as this man does. And he just starts rubbing my feet mid-afternoon, while we both need a nap from days of little sleep,” she shared alongside a video of them together at home. “Girls, set your standards high, do not settle, and the man meant for you will eventually find you when you aren’t even looking. And any man that truly wants you, and only YOU, will let it be known without speaking a word. His actions will prove everything.”
If anything, they’ll have a new home to call their own, after Alexis put her house on sale earlier this summer.
