Well fashionistas, the time has come for us to bid farewell to The Hills. After an awesome red carpet special with interviews featuring Brody, Lo, and Audrina, we jump right in to this special wedding finale.
As Lauren says, “Everything comes full circle.”

We start off at the house where Lauren and Lo are packing and preparing to move on. They decide to throw one last shindig for all their friends to come by and spend a night at their beloved home. Lo wants to know, what’s next for LC? “For the first time, I really don’t know,” she says.

Checking in with the wedding couple, Stephanie is helping Heidi with arrangements. She’s sad to find out that Heidi already picked her sister Holly to be her bridesmaid, but puts on a brave face and dives back in. Don’t want to upset the bride, after all.

Later, it’s time for the big bridal shower. Heidi is digging into cutesy wedding gifts, but Holly is nowhere to be found! Audrina and Steph have everything under control when Holly finally walks in. Sure, she doesn’t love Spencer, but it’s Heidi’s wedding! Come on, Holly.

LC isn’t at the bridal shower; instead she’s having lunch with her good friend Brody. They toast their friendship and the past few years, and gossip on wedding news. Brody tells LC to suck it up and come. Whether or not she approves, he tells her, it’s important to be there because your friend wants you there. Their wedding day is about them, not Lauren, after all. Good talk, Brody.

Instead of dwelling on that, Lauren’s got other things to take care of. She sits down to talk to Kelly Cutrone, her boss at People’s Revolution. LC doesn’t know what’s next for her and comes to Kelly to clear her confusion. Kelly, usually a stone faced meanie, breaks it down super simple: LC has had great experience at top runway shows and major fashion mags. So what next? “Walk around aimlessly,” she tells her, “and let it all soak in.” Sounds good to us!

Back at wedding central, the whole family is dressed up and pretty at Spiedi’s rehearsal dinner. Stephanie makes a heart filled speech that brings tears to everyone’s eyes. Following in her footsteps, Holly stands to make a speech and also induces tears- but for a different reason. Instead of toasting the happy couple, she roasts them! Not cool, Holly! To top it off, she gets upset and leaves.

Later on, at a party of a different kind, Lauren and Lo are with all their friends. It’s the last hurrah at their old house and they’re all bringing up old memories – good and bad. Steph and Brody bury an old fight they’ve been holding on to, and even Audrina and Jayde are cool to each other. It’s a little sad, but a totally chill ending to their little home.

With all that behind us, it’s finally wedding time! The church looks awesome and everyone is neat and pretty, filing into their seats. Bartender Stacie is there, as Charlie’s date, and sits behind Justin Bobby. Across the aisle, Lo, Audrina, and Brody are all waiting for Lauren’s arrival. She finally comes, but not before stepping into the dressing room to say a special hello to Heidi. For one super teary moment, the two friends squash their differences, hug, and prepare to share this celebration. All is right in the Hills at last! But not exactly for long…

Lauren walks into the church to sit with her gang and share the good news, but before she can do it, Lo points across the aisle. It seems LC’s old nemesis, and former Laguna Beach babe, Kristen Cavallari has decided to crash this wedding! Plus, she’s wearing the same dress as Lauren! “Look,” giggles Lo, “you match!” Not so funny, Lo.

Heidi comes out of her dressing room, and the wedding begins. Her and Spencer share a rare moment of cuteness and exchange vows. Everyone tears up, and heads out of the church after the happy couple kisses.

Outside, Kristen lives up to her reputation as a troublemaker by introducing herself to Audrina and saying how cute Justin Bobby is, telling Lo she is back in town, and squirming to the front of the line to catch Heidi’s bouquet. Under all the drama, LC sneaks off quietly, gets in her limo, and leaves. With Lauren heading away, and Kristen jumping into the spotlight, we wave buh-bye to Lauren Conrad’s Hollywood Hills.

So what do you think will come next? Are you super excited for Kristen Cavallari’s return to LA? Will you miss LC? What about Heidi and Spencer’s wedding? Dish all the dirt you think will happen next season! Till next time, Hollywood, Hunnies!
