Kelsea Ballerini plants a kiss on beau Chase Stokes as they attend the Variety and Golden Globes party at Venice Film Festival

Kelsea Ballerini was amazed with her boyfriend Chase Stokes on Thursday as they attended Variety and the Venice Golden Globes Film Festival.

The 29-year-old country artist – who recently spoke of first date jitters – and her 30-year-old counterpart had a look of love as they coordinated each other in black looks.

At one point, the Tennessee native planted a kiss on her boyfriend’s cheek, much to his delight.

For the star-studded occasion, Ballerini donned a strapless dress by Yves Saint Laurent with a matching scarf.

For his part, the Outer Banks actor looked smart in a double-breasted suit and white shirt.

Kelsea’s blonde bob was styled in a chic, slick look with a side part and the front pieces tucked behind her ears.

Her shiny, accentuated locks were arranged with a subtle tap at the ends for a touch of pizazz.

She typically looked beautiful with a smoky makeup look that drew attention to her blue eyes.

Stokes wore black-rimmed glasses and his dark, shiny hair was tamed with product, keeping the locks in place.

He was handsome with a full, neatly groomed beard as he smiled at the photos with his girlfriend.

Ballerini’s dress had a plunging neckline that exposed her chest and met in the center with soft pleats.

To tie the look together, she wore a small black clutch for a night out in Venice.

And Chase rounded out his ensemble with a pair of understated black loafers.

Also at the celebrity-filled soiree were Chris Appleton, 40, and Lukas Gage, 29.

The couple, who tied the knot shortly after announcing their engagement in April, looked phenomenal.

They both sported monochromatic looks and complemented each other as they posed for the event’s step-and-repeat.

Lukas opted for a relaxed ivory suit with a matching crew neck jumper under his blazer.

It was in his pleated pants and he rounded off the look with white sneakers.

Meanwhile, Chris, Kim Kardashian’s hair guru of choice, wore a silver-grey stand-up neck top and pants in the same shade.

His pants were a bit baggy and he also completed the fashion-forward look with white sneakers.

Appleton’s tangle of blonde-highlighted locks was neatly cut with more length on top to add texture.

The Venice International Film Festival typically attracts Hollywood’s brightest stars who come to the city to promote their upcoming films.

This year, however, many actors are unable to attend the 80th anniversary event due to ongoing industry acting and writing strikes.

Since July 17, Hollywood has been shut down when members of the SAG-AFTRA union joined the Writers Guild Of America to strike over growing concerns over the use of artificial intelligence and streaming residues.

According to Variety, a select list of films premiering in Venice have obtained interim waivers from SAG-AFTRA because they are independent productions not produced by AMPTP members.
