Celebrity Wedding Dresses - Angelina Jolie, Jessica Ennis, Kim Kardashian, Millie Mackintosh

A quick look at some more Celebrity Wedding Dresses

Angelina and Brad

 

Created by Versace the gown featured a simple bodice with thin straps,  the bust was complete with ruchings, a plain waist and a flowing full skirt.
This Versace Gown I think is perfect as it had sketches that their children had drawn on it. Such a beautiful tribute to her children i think and a beautiful way of adding a personal touch and something that i am sure she will keep forever.

Jessica Ennis and Andy Hill

When Jessic Ennis married her childhood sweetheart back in 2013 she chose a

  wore a Monique Lhullier V Necked sleeveless ivory silk gown with a ruffled tulle skirt along with a full length veil

Kim and Kanye

Kim Kardashian married Kanye West married in June 2014 on a beautiful hilltop location overlooking Florence Italy in a long sleeved lace Givenchy Haute Couture gown. Her look was finished with her long flowing hair and a cathedral length veil. Mother Kris Jenner walked down the aisle with baby North.

Millie Mackintosh and Professor Green

Millie Mackintosh was looking beautiful wearing a vintage lace by Alice Temperley wedding dress and Christian Louboutin peep-toe shoes in white, her hair was styled into a pleated floral updo with a short veil that fell past her shoulders and she accessorised with some simple pearl earings.
Carrying a bouquet made up of white, cream and pink flowers, She looked happy and relaxed as she married her love Professor Green back in September 2013. She was walked down the aisle by her father Nigel, who looked every inch the proud father. Her bridesmaids were good friends of hers and the wedding was well attended by the usual expected celebrities and fellow musicians and reality tv stars.

Sad to now say that this marriage has ended, although they have stated that they will remain good friends.

I really love the simplicity and how delicate this vintage dress looked, out of all the celebrity dresses above, I think that this is my favourite, which is one is yours?

Sylvia Weinstock Wedding Cakes

Sylvia is the one that all celebrities turn to when looking for the wedding cakes, in her 80's and with her company based in New York some of her creations can cost anything up to £45,000!! 

The Clinton's as well as Catherine Zeta Jones & Michael Douglas are just a couple of her celebrity clients.

The secret ingredient for Sylvia Weinstock’s success is there are no shortcuts– in cake or in life. She uses only the best ingredients available. While the flowers for a large cake may be made weeks in advance, the cakes are baked, filled, and iced one or two days prior to the delivery date so every client receives a fresh, tender, and delicious cake

This week I thought  it would be lovely to feature some of her work .

for brides who are interested in Sylvia's cakes you have to call direct to make a personal appointment

Mark Zuckerburg Gets Married

Facebook founder and chief executive Mark Zuckerberg updated his status to "married".

Zuckerberg and 27-year-old Priscilla Chan tied the knot at a small ceremony at his Palo Alto, California

And Ms Chan graduated from medical school at the University of California, San Francisco, on Monday, the same day Zuckerberg turned 28.

The couple met at Harvard and have been together for more than nine years.

The ceremony took place in Zuckerberg's backyard before fewer than 100 guests, who all thought they were there to celebrate Ms Chan's graduation.

Zuckerberg founded Facebook at Harvard in 2004 and was named as Time's Person of the Year in 2010, aged 26.

The real wedding of the year!

For some people the wedding of the year happend in April between Prince William and Catherine, but for others the real wedding of the year was between Bella & Edward from the Twilight Saga.
So if your thinking you may like to recreate a "Twilight theme" for your special day here are a few ideas for you to consider.

For those Twi-hards there is good news, from today you can purchase a replica of Bellas dress!
Designer Alfred Angelo has made a significantly less expensive version of the gown for just over £500 ($799)

The original dress designed by Carolina Herrara took around 6 months to make with the aid of four other seamstresses. It was made from crepe satin with chantilly lace with around 152 buttons down the back. The true cost of that dress was approx  £22,000  ($35,000)

Of course you could always look for variations of the dress, here are a few i have found

For those of you looking for hair accessories, keep it simple, how about a replica comb

The hair replica hair comb can be purchased via ebay for around about £30, and there are several websites that have replica rings.

Now lets look at venue decor, the movie decor was stunning, here are a few ideas

If your thinking of ideas for flowers for the bridesmaids what about giving them red ribbons to

 hold instead?

Music - why not go through the Twilight soundtrack or go one further and walk down the aisle to "never think" by robert patterson, imagine walking towards your very own Edward to the song by the guy who actually played the real Edward role.

Vows - what about taking some inspiration from the books such as

  Do you really have any idea how important you are to me? Any concept at all of how much I love you? Look after my heart — I’ve left it with you. And the sound of your heart. It’s the most significant sound in my world. Tell me what you want, and you can have it. All of my best nights have happened since I met you. You love me more than I deserve. - Simply Beautiful!!

I love these Twilight invitations

As an idea for flowers what about ruffled tulips such as the ones on the front of New Moon?
So which was your wedding of the year?  Edward and Bella or Prince William & Catherine?

Congratulations to Zara Phillips & Mike Tindall

Hundreds of well-wishers lined the streets for Scotland's first royal wedding in almost 20 years.

The Queen's granddaughter Zara Phillips married England rugby player Mike Tindall at a ceremony in Edinburgh.

 The Brides Dress was an ivory silk faille and silk duchess satin gown by British and Edinburgh-trained designer Stewart Parvin.This was accompanied by a veil, tiara and Jimmy Choo shoes.

 Zara's maid of honour was her long-time friend Dolly Maude.

Her four chosen bridesmaids were her half-sister Stephanie Phillips, Mrs Maude's daughter Nell, Jaz Jocelyn, the daughter of a family friend and Hope Balshaw, daughter of best man Iain.

Her one page boy was her godson - and her maid of honour's son

The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh were among those at the wedding along with Prince Charles and Camilla, Prince William and Catherine,  and Prince Harry.

Catherine as always looked totally stunning.

 Other guests included Prince Andrew and his daughters Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, as well as some of England's best-known rugby players to the wedding.

The Reverend Neil Gardner welcomed guests, including the Queen and Duke of Edinburgh.

The Family Ceremony itself was kept away from the main glare of the public and the press.

After the ceremony the couple emerged arm-in-arm, stood on the steps to the entrance to the 17 Century Kirk and shared a kiss.

 The private afternoon ceremony is being followed by a reception at the Palace of Holyroodhouse.

The newlyweds arrived back at the palace as the Royal Scots Association pipe band played.

The couple hosted a pre-wedding party on the royal yacht Britannia, which is moored in Leith, on Friday night.

The couple met in a Sydney bar during England's victorious rugby World Cup campaign in Australia in 2003.

The England rugby star, who has captained his country, had a stag do in Miami while his fiancee - one of Britain's leading equestrian competitors – had her hen party at a spa in Portugal.
