Paris Hilton-Reum and Carter Reum have been friends for 15 years, they had stayed in touch throughout the years and met again on Thanksgiving in 2019. Paris has said she felt a spark that night and the rest is history, sounds like a true fairytale right from the start!
Carter proposed to Paris in February 2021 on a beautiful private island; the couple were there on holiday to celebrate Hilton's 40th birthday. As they walked along the beach before dinner, Carter led her to a cabana and dropped to one knee and held out a ring designed by Jean Dousset, the great-grandson of the legendary Louis Cartier.

The custom wedding ring was named ‘Paris’ which is of course very fitting. The ring itself was inspired by Art Nouveau aesthetics as well as the vaulted glass ceiling of the Grand Palais. The design of the ring had a 10 to 20-carat emerald cut diamond framed by two shield-cut diamonds. Paris described the middle of her ring as "15 diamonds going around and then inside it has a ‘P’ with a sapphire". This stunning ring would be valued between $1.5m to $2m.
The Wedding
The wedding itself was a lavish three-day celebration, with A-List celebrities coming to show their love for the beautiful couple. Paris hired top-class wedding planner, Mindy Weiss, to plan everything from the general aesthetic of the wedding to the overall logistics.
Hilton let her mum and new groom take the reins a bit when it came to making wedding planning decisions as she had just released her new media brand and was in the middle of filming and producing her new TV show 'Paris in Love' which will cover her proposal and wedding.
