Josephine Baker made history when she became the first African American woman to appear in a major motion picture in 1927. Apart from her talents as an actress, Baker was also a beautiful dancer. This American-born French performer married orchestra chief Jo Bouillon all the way back in 1937.
For their honeymoon, the young couple went to Buenos Aires, Argentina, after a fairytale wedding in a small French village. And let’s face it, BA is basically the Paris of South America – so they kept things classy. Above, we see the couple posing and Baker giving the camera a huge smile while dining with her hubby at an Argentinian luxury hotel.
Princess Grace and Prince Rainier III
Often considered one of the most beautiful women in Hollywood, Grace Kelly rose to fame in the early 1950s by starring in hit films like “Rear Window” and “High Noon”. The actress was the epitome of beauty and grace, a status that was further cemented when she became an actual royal after marrying Prince Rainier III.
The couple got married in Monaco in 1956 and went on a 7-week cruise around the Mediterranean. Above, we see the lovebirds dancing on their honeymoon in Majorca, Spain. Prince Rainier had always refused to dance with Kelly because she was taller than him, but apparently, that thought faded away quickly.
Tallulah Bankhead and John Emery
American actress Tallulah Bankhead rose to fame all the way back in the 1920s. This was mainly in part due to her flamboyant lifestyle and captivating performances on stage. Bankhead then made her way to the screen, going on to star in big Hollywood films, including Alfred Hitchcock’s “Lifeboat.”
In 1937, the beautiful young actress married Broadway actor and director John Emery at her father’s home in Alabama. For their honeymoon, the young couple flew to the beautiful sea town of Norwalk, Connecticut. It might not be the most exotic place in the world, but it sure is beautiful there.
Ann Miller and William Moss
Never has there been a more festive and joyful photo than that of Ann Miller and William Moss celebrating at the Trevi Fountain in Rome on their honeymoon in 1959. The American actress and the wealthy oilman got married in 1958 and jetted off to Italy for their romantic vacation.
Miller rose to fame for starring in Hollywood musicals during the 1940s and 50s, and even though her marriage to Moss only lasted three years, the newlyweds certainly seemed happy on their honeymoon! As you can see, the couple were throwing pennies behind their shoulders to make some wishes upon their holy matrimony.
Diana Rigg and Menachem Gueffen
In true 70s fashion, actress Diana Rigg and artist Menachem Gueffen pose for a photo in Heathrow Airport before flying off to their honeymoon in Los Angeles, California. They got married in 1973. But ultimately, the marriage was not meant to last and the two went their separate ways three years later.
At the time of their marriage, Diana was a renowned British actress known for her work in the classic television series “The Avengers.” Later on in life, she would go on to have a recurring role in HBO's "Game of Thrones" as Olenna Tyrell. Menachem was an Israeli-born painter who illustrated numerous books, including the translated-to-Hebrew version of "Robinson Crusoe."
