Inside Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes's post-wedding party

A-list pals celebrate with the just-married pair

Back from their Maldives honeymoon, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes held a post-wedding bash Saturday night at the Los Angeles home of Cruise's producing partner, Paula Wagner, on Saturday.

But the first order of the day was a trip to Cruise's daughter Bella's soccer game, where Cruise's sister Cass, mom Mary and Holmes's parents – all in town for the party – laughed and kicked the ball around at half-time (Mary even showed off some fancy footwork).

In the evening, it was off to Wagner's home, although Holmes's family stopped for appetizers at the Beverly Hills Hotel's Polo Lounge on their way.

At the party, they joined guests including Jennifer Lopez, Marc Anthony, Brooke Shields, Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith – all of whom made it to the couple's Italian wedding – as well as Steven Spielberg, Jerry Bruckheimer, Orlando Bloom, Dakota Fanning and Cruise's pre-Holmes girlfriend, Penelope Cruz.

Said one guest, "Tom seemed really proud, parading Katie around his guests." Any tension with his ex? No way! "There was so much love in the air that it seemed like a family reunion."

As Fanning, Cruise's costar in last year's Spielberg-directed War of the Worlds, told PEOPLE Sunday at the premiere of her movie Charlotte's Web, "They were really happy. It was a fun party, it was great."
