Emma Roberts and Ex Garrett Hedlund Reunite for Son Rhodes’ 5th Birthday Celebration
Emma Roberts definitely said “I Do” to Cody John.
The Maybe I Do star tied the knot with the Jaunt actor in a picturesque outdoor wedding in Idaho July 25, as seen in photos obtained by Page Six.
For the occasion, the bride stunned in a drapey Monique Lhuillier gown that featured a removable shawl. To accessorize, Roberts opted for a chapel-length veil and lace voilette that was pushed back to look like a headband.
And while it wasn’t your traditional wedding dress, that’s exactly what drew Roberts to the design.
“I didn’t really know what I wanted,” she told Vogue of the design process in an interview published July 26. “I just knew that I wanted it to feel very vintage-inspired. I’m obsessed with antique books and treasure hunting, and I love collecting old ephemera, so I really wanted that to shine through in the dress.”
And instead of going with a pure white gown, Roberts opted for a subtly died dress. As she put it, “I kind of wanted to look like a ghost—a little antique ghost doll.”
Indeed, that’s exactly what she achieved, telling the outlet when she tried on the finished product, “I feel like an elfin fairy.”
As for the groom, he opted for a chocolate brown suit, which paired perfectly with the foliage surrounding the altar.

And it’s clear that the couple’s chosen venue was just as wow-worthy as their wedding day get-up. In one snap obtained by Page Six, John slips a ring on Roberts’ finger as a man in a black suit officiates the nuptials. Behind them, wildflowers surround the wooden altar as rocks separate them from a body of water.
And what’s a wedding without a few star-studded guests? After all, Roberts’ aunt Julia Roberts and her husband Danny Moder were among those who witnessed the couple’s I do’s, while another pic captured Roberts’ 5-year-old son Rhodes—with whom she shares with ex Garrett Hedlund—walking her down the aisle.
Roberts, 35 and John, 36, announced they were engaged in July 2024 after two years of dating with a playful jab at her mom Kelly Cunningham, who publicly confirming her daughter’s pregnancy back in 2020 without the American Horror Story actress’ consent.

As Roberts—whose dad is actor Eric Roberts—wrote on Instagram alongside a snap of her sparkler, “putting this here before my mom tells everyone.”
While the pair have been tight-lipped about their romance since the start, the Wild Child actress has learned that finding love in the spotlight requires a certain level of privacy.
“I never want to talk about relationships I’m in or that are ending or have ended,” she told Cosmopolitan in 2019. “It’s hard enough to be with someone by yourself, let alone with an audience.”
“I think I know what’s true,” she added, “and I know what happened in my own life and so do the people who love me and who I love.”
