‘Call Her Daddy’ host Alex Cooper marries Matt Kaplan in intimate wedding in Mexico

Alex Cooper is officially a wife!

The “Call Her Daddy” podcast host married her longtime boyfriend, Matt Kaplan, in front of close friends and family members in Mexico on April 6.

“Daddy gang, I’ve been keeping a secret from you,” she wrote via her Instagram Stories Wednesday before excitedly announcing the news. “It’s the hardest secret I’ve ever had to keep. But today, it’s yours.”

In an interview with Vogue, Cooper, 29, and Kaplan, 40, said they chose a resort in Riviera Maya, because they wanted it to feel like a vacation for their guests.

“We weren’t looking to have a formal wedding. We wanted it to feel relaxed and authentic to us and the location, so from the decor to the festivities it all was very naturally curated,” Kaplan, who planned most of the wedding, told the outlet.

The Ace Entertainment founder added that they wanted the weekend to feel “private” and “romantic,” so they only invited people “who we love the most and who have helped us become who we are today.”

Their wedding weekend began on April 4 with a welcome party that featured espresso martinis with their initials and a custom sand castle of their dogs, who also played a role in the nuptials.

Cooper wore a semi-sheer Danielle Frankel mini dress embroidered with pearls and a matching skirt for the kickoff party. She accessorized the look with Jimmy Choo satin open-toed heels and 18-karat Material Good antique gold studs.

The following night, the couple held a rehearsal dinner where the blond beauty wore a 2011 Donna Karan Collection tan tulle gown that featured ruffles and silver embellishments. She and Kaplan sat in white lounge chairs while their friends gave speeches and topped off the evening with s’mores on the beach.

Cooper and Kaplan then said “I do” in an emotional ceremony on April 6, with the podcast host opting to walk herself down the aisle as a string quartet played in the background. Cooper requested that the guests face her to make the entrance feel more like a “runway” moment.

“At the beginning of wedding planning, I really rejected the concept of being walked down by a man to be handed to another man. Although to clarify, I have such an incredible relationship with my father and both of my parents — it wasn’t about that,” she explained.

“To me personally, I just never loved that tradition. It’s old and antiquated. My mom also walked herself down the aisle, so in a sense, I guess we are creating our own tradition for the women in our family.”

Cooper called the moment “perfect,” adding, “As soon as I came out, the only thing I saw was Matt. It was a very dramatic moment revealing my dress but also a very beautiful euphoric moment between the two of us.”

As for the officiant, Cooper gave that role to her brother, Grant, telling Vogue that he “has been so instrumental throughout my life, and he and Matt have built such a great bond.” Meanwhile, Cooper and Kaplan’s two fur babies served as ring bearers who presented the rings – via their collars – to the happy couple before they read off their own wedding vows.

“Although my life is pretty public, the true intimate bond and connection Matt and I have we actually keep pretty private,” Cooper gushed. “So for our families and closest friends to hear us verbalize our feelings towards one another in the most intimate setting felt electric.”

For the ceremony, Cooper wore a custom Danielle Frankel silk gown that featured a round neckline and internal corset. She paired the stunning dress with custom Jimmy Choo sandals.

“The dress truly turned out to be my dream,” she told Vogue. “I felt so classic and chic in it. I felt confident and sexy while still elegant and timeless. [From there] the rest of the looks fell into place.”

The Unwell co-founder pulled her hair back in a sleek bun and added a short veil and Lorraine Schwartz diamond drop earrings. She held onto a white flower bouquet that was tied with pearls her mom gave her as a child as her “something borrowed.”

Meanwhile, Kaplan looked dapper in a custom Cloakroom black suit with a white button-down, which he styled with black shoes by Saint Laurent.

After the emotional ceremony, the newlyweds and their guests ventured to the reception where Cooper changed into a vintage Alexander McQueen silk chiffon corset dress with Jimmy Choo heels.

The couple continued their unconventional wedding vibes by opting for a “first shot” over the traditional first dance, cutting into two separate cakes and running into the ocean with their guests.

Cooper slipped into one last outfit for the afterparty – a vintage 1995 Gianni Versace corset top with a matching silk skirt.

“Matt and I were both so intentional about making the weekend about being present with each other and our friends and family, and that’s exactly what we did,” she shared. “There’s no detail or moment I won’t remember — and I will cherish this celebration of our love forever.”

Page Six broke the news in April that Cooper and Kaplan got engaged after dating for nearly three years. The couple met through work, though Cooper kept his identity underwraps until the proposal.
