Antonio Banderas and Melanie Griffith's daughter Stella officially said 'I do' to her childhood sweetheart during a dreamy Spanish wedding over the weekend.

The 65-year-old actor was seen toasting the newlyweds as his daughter, 29, married Alex Gruszynski on Saturday in Spain.

It comes a little over one year after the couple announced their engagement in August 2024, with the Desperado actor expressing he was 'happy' for the lovebirds at the time.

Antonio and Melanie were previously married from 1996 until their divorce in 2015 - but have remained close friends despite the split.

Antonio was dapper in a classic black tuxedo which was paired with a white dress shirt and black bowtie for the big day - with Melanie also in attendance at the nuptials.

At one point, he could be seen holding up a glass of wine as he proudly celebrated his daughter's special milestone.

The actor stood outside as the sun began to set in the distance at what appeared to be a winery.

He mingled and cheerfully conversed with people nearby while sipping on a refreshing glass of white wine.

Last year in August, Stella jumped to social media to announce her engagement to Alex - whom she has known since they were kids.

She had given her followers a glimpse at her sparkling diamond ring in a sweet snap not long after he popped the big question.

Stella penned in the caption of the post at the time, 'I get to hang out with my favorite person on earth forever!!!!!!!!'

Her mother Melanie also jumped to the comment section to gush, 'I love you both sooooo much!! Congratulations again!!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️.'

The actress later uploaded a separate post of her own in celebration of her daughter's engagement and wrote, 'He asked.... On bended knee... she said yes ♥️ Stella and Alex are engaged to be married ♥️.'

Melanie continued, 'Their love story began in pre-school! True love, deep love! Congratulations to the beloveds!!! ♥️♥️♥️.'
