Diane Keatonâs impact reached far beyond Hollywood. The legendary actress, who passed away on October 11 at 79, is now being remembered for one of her most touching off-screen momentsâhelping her daughter, Dexter, pick out her wedding gown at a California bridal shop.
âWe are heartbroken to hear of the passing of the iconic Diane Keaton,â Saint Clark Bridal Suite wrote in a touching Instagram post on October 14. âA legend on screen and a light in person, Diane once came into our boutique with her daughter to help choose the perfect wedding gown.â
The post continued, âFrom the moment she walked in, she didnât feel like a celebrity; she felt like an old friend. Wholesome, vibrant, full of color and warmth, she made everyone around her feel instantly at ease.â
âHer Love for Her Daughter Was So Beautifully Evidentâ
The bridal shop described how Keatonâs personality left a lasting impression on everyone she met. âHer presence was magnetic, her humor effortless, and her love for her daughter so beautifully evident,â they shared. âIt was a moment weâll never forget, and one that so many women around the world can relate to, because Diane was, and always will be, a gift to women everywhere.â

Dexter Keatonâs Wedding Day Was a Family Affair
Dexter, now 29, married Jordan White in California on June 12, 2021, seven months after their engagement. The bride wore a stunning lace-trimmed gown with a V-neckline, while Keaton opted for a cream pantsuit paired with white boots, a turtleneck, and her signature wide-brimmed hat.
After the wedding, Dexter shared several photos from the celebration on Instagram, including a sweet family moment featuring her mother and brother, Duke. In 2023, she also posted a throwback photo of herself dancing with Keaton at the reception, writing that it was one of her favorite memories.
