Nikki Reed Marries in Dazzling Diamonds

Twilight actress Nikki Reed, who married her fiancé Paul McDonald earlier this week, wore a magical wedding dress studded with no less than one hundred diamond buttons.

The 23-year-old celebrity has spoken of her delight with the ivory white, body-hugging gown. She collaborated with respected bridal jewellery brand Tacori, which not only crafted the bridal dress, but also created the engagement and wedding bands for the couple.

Michelle Adorjan, designer at Tacori, commented on the spectacular gown: “It was a 40′s classic glamour silhouette. It flows back into a 72-inch train, about six feet. It’s extremely simple. Instead of a traditional, silk wrap button, we did diamond buttons. A little over 100 carats just on the buttons.”

Nikki and Paul tied the knot at a private ranch in Malibu, California. They had only been dating for two months, but have been seen to be very much in love when out in public.

Reed said the following about her special day: “We couldn’t be happier. We were surrounded by our family and friends. We’re so glad this day has come.”

Kardashian Wedding Details Released

The marriage of reality TV actress Kim Kardashian and basketball star this weekend saw a celebrity packed guest list among the 450 people who attended.

Desperate Housewives actress Eva Longoria, singer Avril Lavigne, movie actress Lindsay Lohan, tennis siblings Venus and Serena Williams and TV/radio presenter Ryan Seacrest, were just some of the celebrities that enjoyed the romantic sunset wedding ceremony on Saturday.

Kim was a beautiful bride in a gorgeous strapless ivory Vera Wang gown which had hand-placed Chantilly lace appliqué on the bodice and was completed by an ‘epic’ train. Her famously lovely locks were swept off her face and adorned with a pearl beaded and bejewelled tiara.

This was only one of the outfits she chose for the special day – E! has revealed that Kim wore no less than three bridal gowns during the course of the event.

Her four sisters all wore ivory dresses which have been compared to those worn by Pippa Middleton to sister Kate’s Royal wedding.

It has also been revealed that the couple celebrated their wedding with a cake that was taller than the bride herself. The six-foot black and white creation is estimated to have cost £9,100 to £12,134.

Twilight Wedding Dress Replicas Available

One of the most talked about on-screen events of the year is the much anticipated wedding between real life couple Kristen Stewart and Robert Pattinson’s characters in the forthcoming film Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn.

To commemorate the occasion and give fans a chance to experience their own fantasy wedding, designer Alfred Angelo will be selling official replicas of character Bella Swan’s Carolina Herrera designed gown once the film has been released.

The “Edwardian-inspired” dress, which has so far only been briefly glimpsed in a trailer for the movie, will be available at Angelo’s Signature stores in the US.

This is not Alfred Angelo’s first venture into the realms of replica dresses. He has previously collaborated with Disney to produce a range of fairytale gowns and he has also produced a replica of Kate Middleton’s now iconic Alexander McQueen wedding dress.

Other retailers worldwide will soon also be stocking what is bound to be a highly sought after garment.

Price details of the replica wedding gown have yet to be released, but estimates have put its value at anywhere from £300 to £3,000.
