Christine Baumgartner’s Second Wedding Shares Surprising Similarities With Her First to Kevin Costner

Christine Baumgartner and Josh Connor are married, and they shared all the details with People. Now, insiders hinted months ago that she and Connor wanted a small wedding ceremony, especially compared to her huge one with her ex-husband, Kevin Costner, back in 2004. However, eagle-eyed fans noticed one significant similarity between these two weddings: they were both held in ranches, in the autumn season.

In details obtained by People, we can see that Baumgartner and Connor were married on Oct 18, 2025, in a gorgeous, intimate ceremony at the Santa Ynez Ranch, also known as a private vineyard in Santa Barbara, Calif. There were a little over 100 of their closest family and friends, including their children, in attendance. And to top it all off, it was a sunset wedding!

(The insiders previously told celebrity.land earlier this year that Baumgartner and Connor wanted a small wedding ceremony in Hawaii, and specifically wanted a sunset wedding. It seems they got everything they wanted besides Hawaii!)

Now, as we mentioned, this wedding is quite different from her first, but the ranch detail and the autumn detail are the only similarities. With her wedding to Costner back on September 25, 2004, at Costner’s Colorado mountain ranch near Aspen. However, there was a lot more glitz and glam, with horse-drawn carriages and over 300 friends and family in attendance.

For those who don’t know, Costner and Baumgartner divorced in 2024 after nearly 20 years together, but continue to co-parent their three children named Cayden, Hayes, and Grace. Soon after their divorce, Baumgartner started dating Connor (However, Costner alleged there was an overlap between their relationship and her new one).

Now, Baumgartner and Connor allegedly met through their daughters, both 13 at the time, who are close friends, but Connor and Costner were pals beforehand. Since then, they were seen on vacations, and Baumgartner allegedly moved closer to Connor.

They got engaged in Jan 2025, and are now married!
