In the high-stress environment of the Academy Awards, we wouldn't blame our favorite celebrities for committing various faux pas. We'd forgive them if they decided to, say, grope a fellow celebrity, or make awkward jokes in their underwear. And while the two aforementioned events certainly happened, a majority of the Oscar attendees surprised us in the best ways possible: Reese Witherspoon and Patricia Arquette (with the support of Meryl Streep and Jennifer Lopez) addressed feminist issues, Steve Carrell brought #HeForShe to the event, and the red carpet was home to some of the cutest romantic displays we've seen in a while (seriously, we pictured cartoon hearts floating above everyone's heads). Click through the gallery to see the cutest couples of the night.
