It’s all too fitting that Candice Accola (better known as vampire Caroline Forbes to fans of “The Vampire Diaries”) gathered friends and family in New Orleans yesterday (October 18) to celebrate her marriage to The Fray’s Joe King. New Orleans has a storied history of vampire lore, after all – and it served as an incredible backdrop for a mini-reunion of her “Vampire Diaries” castmates.
Stefan Salvatore himself – Paul Wesley – attended, as did Kat Graham (Bonnie Bennett), Michael Trevino (Tyler Lockwood), Claire Holt (Rebekah) and the show’s executive producer Julie Plec. The Elena-Damon whirlwind that is Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder sadly weren’t in attendance, but Somerhalder sent a sweet Instagram message from a set in Atlanta.
The actors shared their own personal New Orleans “Diaries” throughout their time in town – Wesley signaled his arrival with a video of locals performing…
Graham ogled some gator heads…
…and perhaps sampled a few, according to Trevino.
Holt snapped a shot with her dapper date…
…and Plec summed the evening up with one magic word.
The actress and guitarist first met in 2011, when Accola starred in The Fray’s music video for “Love Don’t Die.” The couple announced their engagement in May 2013, via Accola’s Instagram.
