Caroline’s daughter will wear the Vera Wang gown next year when she exchanges vows with Scalia. The happy couple got engaged in November 2013, after Scalia got to know Lauren as a best friend of her brothers Albie and Chris, and began dating her years ago. 

“I’m so incredibly happy!!” Lauren told Us Weekly at the time. “I’m in shock. I’m so excited to spend the rest of my life with my best friend. Well he was my brothers’ best friend first, but I stole him!”
