Jennifer Coolidge was happier than ever at this iconic wedding.

The White Lotus star revealed the most memorable wedding ceremony she ever attended was that of Maggie Baird and Patrick O'Connell—the parents of Billie Eilish and Finneas.

"The best wedding I ever went to was…I got this invite when I was in this comedy group, The Groundlings," Coolidge said on UK's Hits Radio Jan. 23. "I go to all these really fancy wedding where people spend millions of dollars, and things like that. But it wasn't equivalent to this very sort of, it was just the most unique, natural wedding."

Noting that the bride and groom "had known each other for a really long time," Coolidge went on to reveal the truly "cool part" of the story.

"They gave birth to two children after they got married," the Legally Blonde actress explained. "And their daughter is Billie Eilish and their son is Finneas."

Asides from who the couple's children turned out to be, there was another thing that made the occasion special.

"I'll never forget that wedding," Coolidge continued. "A family of deer showed up while they were doing the nuptials. This family of deer stood in the background. It was the most romantic thing I've ever been to."

Soon, fans will see Coolidge in another wedding—Amazon Prime Video's action-comedy Shotgun Wedding starring Jennifer Lopez, out on Jan. 27. Ahead of the movie's release, Coolidge joined TikTok in legendary fashion.

"Hi, this is my first TikTok," she said. "And I tried to think of something cool to do and I think I'm just gonna do a poem that I like."

While Coolidge goes on to recite lyrics from J.Lo's 2002 hit song "Jenny From the Block," the camera turns to reveal the superstar herself.

"I like that," Lopez tells Coolidge. "I really, really like that."
