While most of us are familiar with spotlight-stealing, A-list Hollywood power couples, several of our favorite stars have opted to wed regular, non-famous people.

From meet-cutes in grocery stores to introductions via mutual friends, here are some of the celebrities who have wed people who aren’t in the spotlight.

Taylor Lautner

Taylor Dome lived out every “Twilight” fan’s fantasy when she wed Taylor Lautner in 2022.

The registered nurse, who is close friends with her now-husband’s sister Makena Moore, was introduced to the actor at a game night.

“It’s just me and my sister so we’re super close, and she always said that she was gonna introduce me to my future wife, and I was like, ‘sure,’” he said during an appearance on “The Kelly Clarkson Show” in 2022.

“I love game nights. She’s like, ‘Throw a game night, invite me and some of my friends over, and I’ll bring Tay. She’ll just be one of them, and you guys can just meet,’” he explained of their first meeting. “We hit it off and the rest is history.”

The two, who now share the same legal name, said “I do” at a California winery in November 2022.

Ellen Pompeo

Ellen Pompeo had a true Hollywood meet-cute with her husband, Chris Ivery, in 2003.

The pair, who now share three children, met in a Los Angeles grocery store and were initially just friends for six months.

“One night she just looked different to me,” Ivery recalled to People in 2006, after he popped the question on her 37th birthday.

“She was surprised and thrilled,” a rep for the “Grey’s Anatomy” actress told the outlet at the time.

Pompeo wed the record producer the following year in a small ceremony at New York’s City Hall with Mayor Michael Bloomberg as a witness.

Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon met her second husband, Jim Toth, through mutual friends.

They were first spotted by fans having dinner together in February 2010. Less than 12 months later, Witherspoon was engaged to the talent agent.

They tied the knot in March 2011 in a laid-back ceremony on the “Legally Blonde” star’s California ranch.

Just days before their 12th wedding anniversary in 2023, the two announced their “difficult decision” to call it quits.

The pair noted in a joint statement that they came to the decision with “a great deal of care and consideration,” noting they would focus on co-parenting their son, Tennessee James.
