The wedding took place at an outdoor venue in Malibu with sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, a setting multiple outlets described as picture-perfect. White floral décor framed the ceremony space, contributing to the polished, black-tie aesthetic that defined the event.
TMZ described the affair as a wedding “with enough star power to fill several courtside rows,” while Page Six and other outlets noted the intimate scale of the immediate ceremony despite the significant celebrity turnout. The couple exchanged vows outdoors before moving into a reception setting, according to coverage from Page Six and TMZ.
Knicks Teammates and Celebrity Guests
Several of Towns' New York Knicks teammates traveled to Malibu for the celebration. Jalen Brunson, OG Anunoby and Josh Hart were confirmed in attendance, according to ESPN and the New York Post. Some reports also placed Miles McBride among the Knicks players present at the wedding weekend.
The guest list extended well beyond basketball circles. Timothée Chalamet and Ben Stiller, both known as courtside regulars during the Knicks' championship run, attended the ceremony. Stiller was accompanied by Christine Taylor. Kylie Jenner, a longtime former close friend of Woods, was also present, drawing considerable media attention alongside Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber.
Additional attendees named across entertainment coverage included Michael B. Jordan, Teyana Taylor and Gayle King. Social media coverage also placed Jada Pinkett Smith and Willow Smith among the guests.

Knicks-Themed Wedding Details
The wedding incorporated several nods to Towns' championship season with the Knicks. Guests received hoodies printed with the phrase "Married in 5," a play on the "Knicks in 5" motto associated with the team's NBA Finals run, according to reporting cited by ESPN and the New York Post.
Wedding favors also included Fanatics-branded gift bags, referencing the sports merchandise company closely tied to the NBA, along with In-N-Out cups distributed to guests. Entertainment Now reported that the Malibu wedding "doubled as a celebration of an unforgettable year for the New York Knicks," pointing to the overlap between Towns' personal milestone and his team's recent title.
A Long Relationship Reaches Marriage
Towns and Woods had been together for more than five years before marrying, according to ESPN. The couple announced their engagement on Christmas Day in New York City the previous year, a milestone widely cited as the lead-up to the Malibu ceremony.
The New York Post reported that the pair had purchased a $14 million home in Los Angeles less than a year before the wedding and had celebrated their six-year anniversary in May, just months before exchanging vows. Woods, 28, has built a career as a model, entrepreneur and reality television personality, while Towns enters this new chapter fresh off a championship season with the Knicks.
As of the initial coverage, no details have emerged regarding honeymoon plans or any changes to Towns' professional commitments with the Knicks. Reporting across outlets frames the wedding as capping a long relationship and a standout year for both Towns individually and the Knicks organization as a whole.
