Van Halen's son Wolfgang gets married to Andraia Allsop in their living room

Eddie Van Halen's son Wolfgang has tied the knot with his partner, Andraia Allsop, with a ceremony in his very own living room.

After all, who needs stately homes, fancy marquees or exquisite churches when you could do it all in the comfort of your own home?

Though to be fair, as a musician himself, and the son of such an iconic guitarist, Wolfgang probably has a living room a little bit grander than most.

The room is big enough to fit at least 90 people, which is exactly the number of guests invited by Wolfgang and his fiancé Andraia as they carried out their wedding ceremony on Sunday, 15 October.

Speaking to People about the occasion, Andraia said: "Our goal was just to bring all of our closest family and friends together.

"The past few years, not only with the world, but also with personal tragedies, haven't been the easiest, but we wanted to create this wedding as a celebration not only just for us to get married, but a celebration for the people we love."

The wedding came three years after Wolfgang's dad, Eddie Van Halen, died of throat cancer in October 2020.

Wolfgang walked down the aisle with his mom to a song written by the famous guitarist, saying: "The song that my father had written for me, it's an instrumental piece called 316. It'll be a nice way to include my dad."

The couple held their ceremony in the living room as they felt it offered the perfect space for them to 'have privacy and just have [their] moment together with everyone'.

The wedding was officiated by one of Wolfgang's closest family friends, who he's known for 'almost three decades'.

"He's the dad of one of my best men and he's just an important guy in our life," Wolfgang explained.

Wolfgang's mother, Valerie Bertinelli, said it brought her a 'nice sense of peace' to know Wolfgang and Andraia had each other for the rest of their lives.

"They really ‘get’ one another," she said. "Their humor is very similar, they like similar things, they know how to give each other space and they’re just so comfortable together."

As well as walking down the aisle to a song written by Van Halen, the couple brought the late musician into their day with an empty chair placed at the ceremony in his honor, and in 'memory charms' which featured a picture of Wolfgang and his dad.

Further explaining how they included lost loved ones in their special day, Andraia added: "We cleared out all the bookshelves and we've just lined the shelves with photos of our family, our loved ones, people who've passed, people who couldn't make it."

Wolfgang added: "We've lost important family members on both sides, so it's important to include them and have them be a part of the ceremony that we wish they were here for."

After the wedding, the reception took place outside in the couple's backyard, which they'd decorated with lights and flowers.

Bertinelli said Van Halen would have been 'so proud' of the man Wolfgang had become, adding: "[He would've been] so happy that he has found Andraia, someone who really understands Wolfie, who he is and who he wants to be and supports him wholeheartedly."
