First Photos from Kim Kardashian's Wedding

How are you? I hope you all had great weekends! I know I've not been a great blogger lately, but life has kind of taken over. Just back into town from a much needed vacay and was catching up on the who-what-wear of Kim Kardashian's wedding, which took place this weekend.

Kim wore (three) Vera Wang dresses when marrying Kris Humphries in a to-be-televised wedding that included an edict that all guests don black and white. You can click here for a wedding sneak peek, which shoes Bruce Jenner walking Kim down the aisle in a strapless Wang. The bride is wearing a diamond headpiece and some really eye popping earrings. (She kind of reminded me of the Lisa in Coming to America for some reason, I think it's the hair/headpiece/earrings combo).

As for the cake? About six feet tall, black and white, and ringing in at a cost of $20,000. The best part? Guests were served from another cake. So, yeah, a big, brash, over the top wedding from a Kardashian. Not exactly surprising.

Above is a look at Kim's reception party dress.

Zara Phillips' Wedding Dress and Tiara

via dailymail.co.uk

Zara Phillips looks like one of those laidback, happy brides that make weddings a delight. Her dress, designed by Stewart Parvin, was simple and unpretentious just like she is.

I love that Zara added just enough drama with a long veil

and the bling from her tiara and earrings.

The tiara worn by Zara belongs to her mother, the Princess Royal, and is called the Meander Tiara. Originally gifted to then-Princess Elizabeth by her mother-in-law the tiara was apparently never worn in public by the Queen and was passed on to her daughter instead. Loving this design!

What did you think of Zara's wedding day look?

Dylan Lauren and Anja Rubik Get Married -- Not to Each Other!

Dylan Lauren was photographed for Vogue wearing the off-the-shoulder wedding gown designed by her father Ralph. All I have to say is that Dylan looks fab and I would totally sign on the dotted line to look like her at 37. Can't wait to see Lauren Bush's dress when she marries Dylan's brother later this summer.

The very in-demand Anja Rubik wed fellow model Sasha Knezevic on Majorca. Rubik wore a custom Pucci gown by Peter Dundas, which featured something called a "mullet-hem" (I doubt that can ever be good) and a lacy piece on top to cover her shoulders. It's different, but I can't say I'm loving this look. You? [via]

Beautiful Bride: Kate Moss

In other big wedding news Kate Moss wed Jamie Hince in the Costwolds today and posed for several wedding photos outside. The super's vintage-inspired, bias-cut Galliano gown suits her well, but I'm not sure I'm completely loving the gown although the gold leaf embroidery and rhinestones are pretty. [via]

Kate wore custom Manolos with blue heels and a trailing veil.

Kate and Jamie exchanged simple gold bands

to go with Moss' engagement ring.

The couple earlier this morning.

Which of this weekend's brides is your fave?

Kate or Charlene?

Monaco Royal Wedding: Prince Albert Weds Charlene Wittstock

When you're marrying the son of Grace Kelly, one of the most iconic brides of all times, choosing a wedding dress has got to be a stressful event. I think Charlene Wittstock did very well with her Armani gown, which managed to be both simple and heavily worked at the same time. The South African wore the off-the-shoulder gown during the religious ceremony that turned her into Princess Charlene.

According to The Daily Mail, Charlene's wedding gown "took Armani's team 2,500 hours to prepare, of which 700 hours was spent on the embroidery alone, using 'kilometres' of platinum-coated thread sewn into 130 metres of off-white silk. The gown would have been heavy for the new Princess, as she would have had to carry the weight of 40,000 Swarovski crystals, 20,000 mother of pearl tear drops and 30,000 'stones in gold shades."

I like the fact that Charlene was able to find a bridal style that is quite her own and seperate from Princess Grace (if she had shown up in a Kate Middleton-esque gown it would have been terrible, I think). I also loved the piece in her hair and Charlene, obviously, has one of those bodies that flatters just about anything. That said, I don't think I'm the only one who thinks something seems off about this couple.

I don't like to judge but they just seem so...ackward. And then there's that whole story of Charlene trying to flee just days before the wedding and having her passport confiscated at the airport. Who knows what's true, but hopefully they'll be happy together. Here are some more photos from the Monaco royal wedding:

Princess Caroline and Princess Stephanie were on hand to support their brother along with their children, including Charlotte Casiraghi, who also sported an off-the-shoulder ensemble.

For the civil ceremony Charlene chose a

powder blue Chanel dress and blazer.

It seems a lot of the royal guests seemed a bit...frumpy and boring.

What did you think of the outfits and Charlene's bridal look?

Lily Allen Gets Married...Doesn't Wear Chanel Until Later

Surprisingly singer Lily Allen didn't choose Chanel for gown at her wedding to Sam Cooper. Rather, the recently hitched singer went with Parisian designer Delphine Manivet.

The lace dress and headpiece are obviously vintage

inspired but its not really my taste at all.

Allen does look really happy--doubly so because

she also just announced her pregnancy.

Allen's platform peep-toe heels are custom

made Hydras by Rupert Sanderson.

UPDATE:

Lily changed into a bell-sleeved Chanel gown for

the reception. Which dress do you like better?

Bridesmaids were meh in my opinion, wearing rather unflattering peach.

While Lily's sister Sarah could really have put the girls

away  for an afternoon. Not sure how appopriate

that neckline is for church.

Oh, and check out Molly Sim's engagement ring.

Pretty, no?

Tony Romo & Candice Crawford Tie the Knot!

The first photos of Tony Romo's wedding to Candice Crawford are out, and while they're a little grainy, you can still get a good feel for Candice's wedding dress. I'm liking the dropped waist, but something about the bodice seems a little...I don't know, much for me.

Romo and Crawford married in Dallas with a reported 600 guests in attendance, including the bride's brother Chace, who will likely always be Nate in my mind. [via]

Candice Crawford's wedding dress was designed by Rani Totman of St. Pucchi and features a V-neckline, keyhole back and a Queen Anne collar. According to People the dress was "made with 100 percent pure silk duchess satin, the dress’s bodice was handcrafted in a floral pattern and accented with ostrich feathers, rhinestones and crystal beading." What do you think of Candice's wedding gown?
