Here comes the bride, again!
More than a decade after tying the knot to Ryan Reynolds, Blake Lively is back in a wedding dress. However, don’t get too excited — the couple isn’t renewing their vows (at least not to our knowledge), but rather, Lively’s character in A Simple Favor 2, Emily Nelson, is getting married.
Shortly after Amazon MGM Studios announced that there would soon be a sequel to the 2018 comedy thriller, filming kicked off in Capri, Italy, with a waterfront wedding. In photos exclusively obtained by The Daily Mail, Lively wore a white strapless gown with a corseted bodice, 3-D floral detailing, and a voluminous skirt while standing at the altar across from actor Michele Morrone, who plays a wealthy Italian businessman in the film.
She accessorized her wedding dress with arm-length opera gloves and a long veil, and styled her blonde hair in a sleek, side-parted bun.
Lively's co-star Anna Kendrick was also visible in a few of the snapshots, as it was also confirmed that she would also be reprising her role as Stephanie Smothers in the sequel. For her part, Kendrick wore a strapless beige cocktail dress covered in a colorful floral print.

According to a synopsis, A Simple Favor 2 sees the “return of Stephanie Smothers and Emily Nelson as they head to the beautiful island of Capri, Italy, for Emily’s extravagant wedding to a rich Italian businessman. Along with the glamorous guests, expect murder and betrayal to RSVP for a wedding with more twists and turns than the road from the Marina Grande to the Capri town square.”
